A-Side: Track 1: Like this track a lot. Aleksi teased some dubstep with 'Black Leicester', and here, he comes with an even more out-and-out dubsteppy thing. Compared to a lot of dubstep out there, its pretty leftfield sounding, but holds its own. Maybe the bass isnt as badass as it thinks it is though.
Question: 'This one belongs in the summer of 1988'. Unless there is some meaning I am missing here, this sample just doesnt fit at all. The tracks sounds anything but summery, and the dubsteppyness sounds about as far away from 1988 as possible. Any thoughts?
Track 2: Now here's a fucking summery track. Lovely, with some, dare I say, BOC sounding melodies in there. Aleksi on the acid tip is ALWAYS a pleasure. Once again, a dubsteppy, or maybe more garagey beat. But genre-smemre, who gives a fuck. Just some nice shit.
Track 3: Oh yeah. We get treated to some Astrobotnia throwback shit here, but just with Aleksi's more recent, more sparse, drum pattern style. Kind of a Bug-ish dancehall beat, but just dampened down to fuck. Got them beautiful spacey pads like only Mr. Perälä knows how. AStrobotnia's 1+3 are still in my top 5 albums of all time. TOP 5 LISTS LOL, I'M LYK NME LOL LOL.
B-Side: Now, I thought this track was a piece of shit when I first heard it, but after reading The Metro newspaper today (unholy scaremongering shitrag), it created some much needed 24-esque tension. Still, Mr. Perälä you are capable of much more than this Richie Hawtin bollocks.
Would love to hear everyone elses thoughts...

A1 is BADASS, i like how it does sound, like a fight. the samples there are perfect imo. messages apart, it just works for me. no rap, no music no music no music.
A2 is happyish yes but i prefer when he sounds the opposite, definately.
A3 the super spacey pads make it fly.
B1 class.

a2 - love how its all mellow, slowly uplifting and then climaxes really fastpaced. could go on longer^^ but.. a3 - ..picks up the high feeling almost seamlessly. these tracks go very well after one another.
b-side.. as stated before, id really go for some (more entertaining) noisy, percussive stuff than this. make it epic as the rest aleksi! was hoping for afx & hecker to go down that line too.
can we have album now? .-)

I second the album comment. The MySpazz tracks are too good to not be realeased, esp. 'First Step'.

mp3's generally lose higher frequencies. I can hear the sub bass. But maybe not to its maximum potential.

the sub is not the whole point for me though, when listening to headphones the tracks give a whole different feel, it sounds more haunting yet calm, with a lot of space where to spot details that become much less relevant in the presence of sub-bass frequencies
