whoops

it's not bad darryl but old and old-sounding

my friend messaged me this four tet + burial + yorke thing. my emotional/erratic state is growing exopnentially i have high anxiety just considering uncompressing the file. what fucking planet... is this....



OTT. REALLY REALLY GOOD.

[Hannahrain]

Are you under the impression that I closed my eyes, waved my hands over the internet, and divinely interpreted that the video you posted had a drumbeat I didn't appreciate? Because all other evidence would point to having listened to it first.

[shanx]

don't listen to darryl. it's 2011; follow my lead

[GeezrRckr]

quoted for (why so) Cunt-y.

I listened to it and insulted it (entire album, not just the YT). I didn't like it. We disagree. It's life. Get over it.

(and, btw...never been a Shpongle fan. Hippie-tronica just ain't my thing. Again...bfd)

[shanx]

howza.

shpongle sucks, ok, everything is fine... /backs away slowly/ cunt necessary really, IYO?

[Devin the Dude]

I am thoroughly enjoying his latest album. Ott that is. Very good. And Skylon too.

i really grappled with whether to post this, but ultimately, the thread *will go on

this is from 2010, but i just now had the wherewithal to take in this album. got the first exposure with "muppet"--i didn't realize this was NT at that time. obscenely avante garde with a lot of really beautiful moments. i found the blatant appeal to counterculture endearing.

i'd poke around on youtube and see if you are curious enough for the whole album. i had no idea what to post (above). there's not a lot of instant gratification to this music. would be interested to hear any thoughtful reactions.

it was with kryptic minds first album that i originally realized all dubstep wasn't loud annoying bullshit

pleased to pass along this new release of theirs. if you are open-minded or a fan of more IDM and less hand-swat styles in this genre, seek this

a bit of downtempo detox is robag's 2011. eloquent layering worth your listen if you're into minimal. unexpected, though very very nice. excited to see him here in denver in a few weeks.
