i luv this guy!!!
i bought his new album called "radio blackout" today and i totally love it
he's becoming one of my favourite electronic musicians really fast
"radio blackout" is definitely one of my top3 albums this year...really energetic stuff - especially track "the game is not over" featuring miss kittin (i think she's his girlfriend btw)
for those that are not familiar with his music, it is a mixture of techno, electro, even glitch, pretty intense stuff and very rhythmic
he's also awesome when it comes to live shows, going wild and really enjoying himself while playing
(the album also includes 4 videos!)
anyone has any thoughts on "radio blackout"?

majority of tracks is very similar to his previous album, but there are also 3 tracks on the end of this new album, a bit different from the rest
-one is hip hop alike, featuring MC SOOM T (my least favourite piece of this album, doesnt quite fit this album imo)
-then ambiental one, totally diferent to anything i've heard by him so far, but really nice!
-and the last one is almost like something done by matmos, only more intense - brilliant tune

game is not over --> one of teh best club tunes this year

he's really popular in this parts, isnt he? hehe
yeah, it sounds a bit commercial, tho if you give it a better listen it gives a different feel to it
btw, when you mention club tunes - do you perhaps know tune with vocal sample that goes "dance like a machine" and it has kind of the same structure as "game is not over"?

has anyone heard rabaukendisko? it's pretty intense, there are 4 on it - 2 dance hall remixes by the bug - these two sound much alike originals but with less straight beats and there are those ragga vocals bug loves to use.
and there's a video on it as well.

the one i have is a cd with 11 tunes and 4 videos (titled video killed the radio star):
-monstertruckdriver -rabaukendisko -wir kinder vom bahnhof strom -radio blackout
that "rabaukendisko" ep (only 17 minutes tho) is quite nice as well, quite a bit harder to "radio blackout", especially cuz of those two bug's mixes. and there's the video "rabaukendisko" - same version as on radio blackout tho.

I really like monstertruckdriver. Heard it a couple of times on the radio, and each time i felt it was over way too soon. Great track! Is the rest of the album like that one?

hmm, i don't think too high of monstertruckdriver, i prefer some others much more. check "the game is not over", "querstromzerspaner" or "musick boy". all three are are very much alike "monstertruckdriver", and there are some other tunes that are alike. there are only like 3 or 4 tracks a bit different to his classic formula, i especially like those two ambiental ones.

im listening to his "the great rock'n'roll swindle" album at the moment and this one is probably most suitable for idm fans.

it's not as much music to listen to as it is music to dance to :)
not sure what "anti" you mean - is this that 4 song release? i think it's called "rabaukendisko" actually.

you're right...that's the one im missing so i can't really tell if it's any different to his other stuff, but i doubt that since the other 3 releases i have are all pretty similar. his last album was released in 2003 though :)

i can't get over how good 'drown in the sea while watching the stars' is. its nice to hear something a bit different. its obvious the guy is doing exactly what he wants and not what other people necessarily want to hear. thats the way it should be.
