Lee Gamble - Mnestic Pressure

[Richie Sombrero]

Ludicrous. It’s cheap on wax too.

Well, if you pay a meager fee you don't have to listen to the ads you entitled cunt who made that meme. Kids these days! Edited November 14, 2017 by Gocab

I;m on the verge of buying this. Been streaming for a while now and it's one of those albums that has a weird, subliminal hook that kinda keeps drawing you in. I think its time to pick up the wax. Looks like a nice package.

[Blir]

Yeah nothing drew me back to the album really, shame. Koch is the better release. Also agreed on the Flatland comparisons, so disappointing. Ratchet still 10/10 tho

[Real Human Bean]

Album pairs really well with this vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXjJdv5fj5k

iduno,bought and been listening to this today. I like all the shifting styles and altered breaks and whatnot. theres some noodley melodies though for sure

unfocused

listened to it a few times could not remember a thing

[ncrtx]

Gave it my first listen and have to say that it's really taking me down a musical journey. Been a while since I felt this way about an album. More convinced about the second half of the album though, first part didn't really do it for me.

Yeah this 'meme' seems either ironically self-aware or just dumb. Bitching about Spotify ads is about the douchiest thing I can think of. Either don't use the service or pay $10 a month for legal instantaneous access the literally the biggest library of music in the world.

soulseek though

 

on topic: I have listened to this album exactly once

[Psychotronic]

Nice. Just ordered the vinyl version on bleep in addition to the new Ryuichi Sakamoto Album.

Gamble did a pretty interesting mix for Solid Steel: https://www.mixcloud.com/Solid_Steel/solid-steel-radio-show-22122017-hour-1-lee-gamble/

put this lp on today for the first time since I first spun it, and it really clicked. might just enjoy it more than his last, certainly one of my fav releases this year.

[thumbass]

Prefer Koch to this but after letting it grow on me for a bit I've come to the conclusion that this was yet again a triumph for gamble. Sucks that I found out who he was last year

[kuniklo]

Yeah this is a great record. Sits next to Autechre on my mental shelf but less annoying than Ae often is.

i like this record quite a lot but lee gamble has a bit of an annoying millennial thing going on

What is the 'millennial thing's you're talking about.

 

Maybe this is a hot take but I listen to gamble way more often than ae. His works are experimental as shit yet for some reason very accessible to put on, even if you only wanna listen to a couple tracks.

So I get what you mean when you're saying this!

i think that’s the bit that bugs me. the very highly referential stuff like those little dnb moments that are layered in top of 80’s ambient pads and whatnot. it’s also what makes it good. may have been more of a drunk/tired take than a hot one. i don’t have anything against lee gamble really. talented dude
