i love that release - they are heavily underappreciated.

okay - maybe it consists only of randomly generated drums
and every song is similar but the autechre like melodies
make my heart beat faster...

team shadetek

"Swoon EP" on Shadetek records is also well worth hunting
down. They've also done a nice NYC street scene video for
"Shortening" off that ep. Handmade covers by Swoon, the
queen of wheatpasting.

I've still not heard this, sadly. The WSHT radio mix they
released on violent turd (i think) is very awesome though.

I've listend to the samples and it has some nice tracks but
imo they wank a bit to much with the sound. I'd like it a
bit more straight forward

i still think it's worth the buy - and i'm curious why they
aren't even in the artists section of warp...

Aye, Burnerism is an excellent ep for those who like hip hop
beats a tiny bit to the left. I rinsed through this in my
christmas holidays and it got better and better. Swoon is
nice too.

It's to repetitive and emmotionless for me.

If I want beat/sound wankery there's plenty of more
enjoyable and more exciting options.

Do you like hip hop (not that jiggy clean digital stuff but
proper hip hop)?

IMO Shadetek's aesthetic is so heavily based on
hiphop+dancehall, that unless you can appreciate heavy beats
just for the sake of them it's probably not for you

edgar and shadetek are different. i love them both

i emailed shadetek and they loved the fact they had a few
middle eastern fans. i love this album, it alwasy finds its
way on my CD player. its not as anal as shadetek but (i
find) as emotional asd plaid. its great hiphopishcrucnhy
stuff. love it. love it too bits.l i can surf to this stuff
and feel completely at home.

Considering I downloaded it, its a good time. I like the
groaning machinery on hard dragon and the splat-snare on
limes.

I love this album, they're all about quality (I'm sure they
didn't just randomly generate drums)...BUT I must admit...my
one complaint would be (and I'm sure many would agree) that
I cannot listen to most of their songs all the way through.
I get kind of bored. Like, they have awesome build-ups but
then they just start repeating everything. It's almost
cliche. I agree with Sire, you have to really appreciate
heavy beats to enjoy this album all the way through.

I do appreciate heavy beats. but honestly I don't like it.
it sounds like autechre hiphopified. they have cools sounds
like in the track "house of leaves" but the beats are just
to wanky. I think it's just a matter of taste.

I like it, but mostly because it reminds me of autechre.

saw them at that too, they were great. i missed pretty much
90% of the chris clark set and didn't regret it (well the
gig WAS free), they were that good with the djing.

burnerism doesn't do much for me though. my friend chris,
with whom i went to that gig, went mad for them after seeing
them, bought it, and thinks it's one of the best things evar
however.

just can't see it

i bought this for some reason, gave it a quick listen and
put it somewhere far away. completly boring as far as i am
concerned :)

man, you listen to music the same way one eats fast food

this way you are missing out lots of good stuff cos you
overlook it

and thats why you seem to be so dissapointed with muic in
general... but its not the music... its the way you consume
it

oh, but im not disappointed in music the least! infact i
enjoy it the most nowdays i think, never enjoyed it as much
as i do now. it's music all day long, i listen, i read and
write about it. there is plenty of brilliant albums coming
out and i wish i had the opportunity to check them all!

you ve had other attitude towards music in the last year

glad it changed for good

i might have changed my taste but not the attitude i think
:)

i had a couple of moments when i was fed up with music but
those moments come and go..usually take a week or so, but
afterwards i just enjoy it even more than before..music is
awesome!

no doubt about that

but the impression that I get from you is that you diss most
of the music
