https://onlychildtyrant.bandcamp.com/ A lot more listenable than his arthouse material imo |

i feel like original amon tobin peaked with "supermodified" and never recovered this does not sound like original amon tobin -- it's more hip-hop than jazz. a bit of prodigy. solidly ok so far. i think he got tired of clearing bollywood samples and went all "foley room" with a fucking seaboard controller and the original feel was just lost. it still ain't back |

Supermodified is alright but even after Permutation it went all production values and i haven't really cared much since i'm afraid |

Yea I got a fatboy slim vibe from a lot of it. After a second listen I'm really enjoying it. But some things throw me off. Some of the loops feel too simple. Like he has to consciously simplify things, but in doing so misses some creative opportunities. Overall I'm happy with this output, because I cannot digest the recent album of his under his usual name. |

was never a big fan, but with roots manuva is heavy. it also mixes really well with knifehandchop - dancemix2000 if you can be bothered doing a few judicious edits |

i was very deliberate with a comparison to prodigy the first track on this bandcamp is like Invaders Must Die with less drums, more hip hop |

oh he's actually posted his own reply to this thred in the bandcamp description: "He’s been listening to his uncle’s collection of rock (from Beefheart and Zeppelin to Fugazi via Dick Dale and beyond) and stealing his brother’s 90’s mixtapes and it’s all gone to his head. |

Yeah and he ends doing highly repetitive shit. |

I like repetition, but subtle this ain’t. |

i haven't followed up on him in awhile. over the weekend i went to a show he did a dj set as his two fingers alias, but it was all that post-dubstep/half-time stuff (which was still good, just way more mainstream than i was expecting). will have to look into his newer material and see if there's any crossover elements or sounds. think i like foley room the most out of all his stuff; honestly, even though i like breaks/drill n' bass, not too fond of when people start getting too jazzy with it, like amon tobin does sometimes. |

I bit the bullet and purchased the flac files. there's a lot more going on than the stream quality reveals. no regrets |

yea I dunno. I don't see a lot of interest for this album, but I'm totally hooked. I want to play it out like it was amon tobin 2003 |
