I read a review that said its experimental and unlike any of his other stuff. It also said it was melodic drill, so I don't know what to think.

It's well-produced but not very exciting. I probably wouldn't describe it as "melodic". I don't know.. I like it, but I can see why it's one of the least talked about µ-Ziq releases.

you worthless bunch of fucking turds, it would be disrespectful of a coat hanger if I used it to stab you stagnant floating imbeciles into smaller pieces before a relentless campaign of flushing

Absolutely awful :(
Tedious & boring from the early days of drill. Mike want's to be like Vibert, Pusha and Mr James, but never fully gets down to (the) business.

Oh, I'm sure. Come to think of it, I actually get a bit irritated thinking about how bad they are...
I'm not saying you should avoid them. By all means, d/l and give em a try. But don't come and say I didn't warn you...

got it cheap at Amoeba bout a month ago. never been Mikes biggest fan but i really really just like this record through and through. just a nice kick back collection to play while you work or something.
"M5 Saabtone" is classic melodic IDMer stuff. "1 Hip 007*" is a really dope retake on "Phi* 1700 [u/v]".
put it on.

strange... I just read vlari´s posts in this thread for the firs time
as much as I admire him and respect his great music taste, I disagree completely here
1- I really enjoy this release and recomend it to all of you
its nice.
2- by no means did this mean a downward direction in mikes career as this is previous to lunatic harness (or from the same year at least), royal astronomy and bilious paths, all of them great releases

haha, it's nice to hear you respect my taste, but I guess we have a difference of opinion regarding Mike P post In Pine Effect - i don't know, it just rubs me the wrong way, although I like most of the Brace Yourself Remix 12".
Generally, I think µ-ziq was best when he was signed to Rephlex

I still stand by my age-old statement that the Auteurs vs µ-ziq and In Pine Effect are his best. Even though In Pine Effect seems to be the µ answer to I Care Because You Do it doesn't suffer from it and I still love it to bits.
I really really wanted Urmer Bile Trax to be darkly fantastic and slickly sweet... the sort of record you'd be proud to own... but it just isn't. I don't like to slag of records, and really it's not terrible, but it is just disappointing and I've only played it a handful of times. Â Still, it has it's moments.

I don't really like it a lot but its not bad. It really suffers from sounding so unstructured (track structure being one of his strongest points normally I think) and the breaks and beats are suprisingly unimaginative and hollow.

I bought the CD version (nearly 70 minutes in a slim-case...), rather cheap in a (so called) junk shop section of my favourite music store. I was very suprised, because I didn't remeber anyone mentioning this earlier here on xlt. Now I know why. Definitely weaker than his "classic" releases, although some parts of (mostly) "1 Hip 007*" catch up with pieces from "Lunatic...". Quite clever at times, but rather an exercise; and without those super-lush lead melodies...
