The artwork for this album is fucking perfect! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
his finest to date... the dsp trickery at work here is unsettling... it's a very tactile 3-dimensional barrage of sound... and not to cluttered that you can't appreciate that mu ziq sound.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, i think a lot of people got thrown off by the hardcore dsp-ness of the whole album. But you can still hear mike's style all the way through the album. I actually didn't like it at first, but that definately changed. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, it definitely took me several listens to make sense of all of it... but the more you hear it... the more spaced out it seems, and the more you can enjoy the overall elasticity of everything... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Mike is still the king of (intelligent) dance music. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
i said it before and i will say it again i love this album the two part song on/off |
||||||||
|
|

|
Meinheld = one of the best tracks of 2003. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i have a burned copy of this somewhere. i shall listen tonight! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i am listening to vect and tango very nice too didnt check out salsa yet |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this and lunatic harness are my fav u-ziq lp's i also love meinheld, and the antiochs, and johnny mastrich. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Agree with Ceri about Meinheld. Silk Ties best harsh track of 2003. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
there are lots of idm records i consider 'great' but this is one of the few i consider 'cool' |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like it a lot but I happen to be one of those weird guys who likes µ-Ziq even more than Aphex Twin. But nothing beats the "Lunatic Harness" album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

|
MIDWINTER LOG< BABY!!!!!!!!!!! catkin and teasel!!! mushroom compost!!! great stuff! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

this album is blowing my mind top uziq this man is a genious, I though nothing could be better than tango n vectif, but lunatic harness and this are at the level. seriously, great happyness to see him in such a great state of creativity. I am surprised, royal astronomy was a nice album, but this one is one of those unforgetable ones... anyway these are just first impressions |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Meinheld was my favourite at first, but to be honest i'm bored of it now. Grape Nut Beats (Pt.1) on the other hand, still feels delicious. a real booty-kicking track |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's a great album, but i was slightly disappointed when i heard the original of "silk ties" by producer and hellfish - it's practically the same track!?!?!? i can't say how much of other tracks are actually his work, i hope a lot more than on silk ties though :) it's a nice album non the less tho!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
very good record. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm not generally crazy about µ-ziq but I really like the most tracks on this album. It is also very diverse, he incorporates more musical styles here (maybe it's because of what tolstoyed wrote). I haven't listened to "royal astronomy" yet though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, you can read on the cover that he used plenty of samples...tho it seems he made a compilation instead :) it's great |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm going to redownload it. But for the second time of doing so, I'm not expecting anything. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i don't have my copy to hand - what samples did he use for on/off?.. its got a real prince feel to it. |

from the milkfactory: "Bilious Paths marks the extremely convincing return to musical activities of one of the pioneers of the electronica scene. Not only has Mike Paradinas carefully observed what the new generation of musicians were doing , but he has continued to develop and mature during these four years, finally offering an album that places him once again far ahead of the pack. Bilious Paths is simply Paradinas’s most impressive release to date." |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
perhaps they don't read what's written on inlay, at milkfactory's :) some remixes, some samples and voila...we get a brilliant album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ain't i evil?? but seriously, i was disappointed to hear the original of that hellfish tune to be practically the same... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Bilious Paths might be my second favorite after Lunatic Harness. I just wish I had a copy on mp3 (only have the vinyl so i can't listen @ school =( !!! ) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ah but mike had decided it was going to be on the album soon after he gave the track to deathchant - personally im glad its on cd! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
me too...it's a perfect album as it is! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i wish the 12" had a full cover art work |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Its good but 'Lunactic Harness' for me is far superior. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah its a decent album . I was waking up to it every day for a couple weeks when it first came out . Dont listen to it at all now though. I agree Meinholdt is the best track on the album , id like to see an ep of remixes a la brace yourself |

i love on-off, and the rest 2 offcourse |

It is awful. Hello. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i take you don't like compilations :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hi. I don't like it either. I appear to be going off IDM. Oh dear. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh no, we're not intelligent anymore! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Seriously though, this album does next to nothing for me, and come to think of it, neither does Mike Paradinas. Repeated use of distorted effects, yet MORE reminders of what old school jungle sounded like, uninspiring melodies... nah, he can keep it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like the first three tracks, Meinheld in specific (which is absolutely excellent) most. I haven't really been able to get into the rest yet. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's a pretty good listen. i didn't really like his style up to this album, i hope he sticks to this kind of sound. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this last µziq release isn't a masterpiece, anyway meinheld and silk ties are wonderful tracks. meinheld is inside my top5 of 2003. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
for what I read in that pic you posted just 3 of the tracks appear in other releases. the three are edited or extended and one of them is a track by him and the other two are edited or extended versions of remixes he had done of other artists tracks so I would say its 99% his material and we are talking about 3 tracks out of 12 so I wouldnt say its like a compilation or anything |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
great. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
tolstoyed: Silk Ties is not a Hellfish+Producer track. it was a Mike P single on Deathchant under Rude Ass Tinker. The version on Bilious Paths is just and edit of his own track. The remix is Grape nut Beats Pt1 which is not that similar to the DJ Producer track Witch Hunt - it's in 6/8 for a start and the melodic samples are backwards and cut up. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and anyother track is taken from other release? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok...looks like i confused things a bit... btw, if anyone knows where could i find more stuff like "fall of antioch" i'd be really happy :) was there some soundtrack/score to this film by which this track was influenced, cuz it's a brilliant tune?? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No he's not. |
