Lorenzo Senni - Scacco Matto

[thumbass]

Will be tuning into this like a motherfucker

Really stoked for this release

[Richie Sombrero]

I have a feeling this album is going to be BIG.

The review in Wire latest issue says he leveled up his game on this.

great job Werp

[thumbass]

Still doesn't work

Guess they greatly underestimated the amount of people that were going to tune in

 

[Stock]

Haha yeah, it's both disappointing that the site doesn't work AND quite a good news if they got overwhelmed by the number of people interested in this release.

My pre order got dispatched today, can't wait for it to arrive

[thumbass]

Got delayed to tomorrow, same time

[Stock]

OK, after that listening party I can definitely say that the album is DOPE. Clearly wasn't expecting so much variety coming from a Lorenzo Senni album. Usually I find his sound design tiring after a few listens (even tho I love the tracks) and it's rare that I can listen to one of his album start to finish, but this one is way different.

And the man himself seem like a very nice and fun guy haha.

Yes this album is top notch

Lol this thread is basically thumbass' evolution into a Lorenzo senni fan

Recently I listened back to Superimpositions, which I totally loved at the time. And now this leaves me cold.

Still I'm really curious about this new offering.

If you can't wait until tomorrow, the album is still streaming at http://scaccomatto.lorenzosenni.com

listening right now, this album is FUN

[mydirtyundiesdude]

the tracks either side of Canone Infinito (the standout track) are amazing

[thumbass]

Grand piece of work

damn this thing is great

[Richie Sombrero]

Didn't grab me on first listen, felt still too reductionist, was thinking he'd stage different elements more but reckon another few listens will click. 

[Stock]

Really can't get enough of that album. All of the 8 tracks are awesome ear worms and I always notice new details when I give it a listen. Much much more subtle and intricate that I first thought. I love it !!!

[cobra]

I completely dismissed this on first listen but I’ve gone back and really enjoying this especially Dance Tonight Revolution Tomorrow

[kiya]

Was definitely not expecting this good of an album, this shit is unreal.  It's far more varied than I thought it was going to be too.

[thumbass]

This is such a good fucking record man...

[beerwolf]

I'm going to get on the case of this album a bit later. 

On paper everything about this album sounds super cool (even his name and haircut is super, super cool) 

How can a man be so impossibly cool and yet possibly fail? It surely cannot be done.

I'll find out later

To be honest it has to be better than me dragging my earholes through the quagmire of Ghosts:Locusts which I'm currently doing....

[mause]

guess i'll just go fuck myself then

never been crazy about this guys stuff but willing to give it a go
