Yeah. Mu seems to have stopped focusing on innovative music, and more on releasing a lot of the same kind of substandard staple music.

I just received Frog Pocket - Conglot which happen to be a VERY nice album.
At least, imo. Nice melodies with harsch glitch beats, yet sweet and lovely. Give it a try!

yeah, true that i was expecting a lot from the new Jega - Variance, but apparently it has been slipped again into 2006? when will they release this? It has been on p2p for over a year!!

what the fuck are you on about, there's ease up, last step, the work related illness, degenerate, pro agonist, bizzy b's science volumes... lots of nice releases lately.
i'm assuming it will be even more interesting when more of the new artists drop their stuff later this year.

Jega's - Varience is not the real album cos a cunt leaked demos it has vastly changed. Also check HELLFISH - "ONE MAN SONIC ATTACK FORCE" and VENETIAN SNARES - "ROSSZ CSILLAG ALATT SZÃœLETETT" if you missed it.

i found exile's album dissapointing. the only decent thing to comeout on mu for ages is the rossig al cssyzzlu snares thing.
the problem is mike p just makes/likes really boring music. i listened to billious paths the other day and realised actually how crap it is.
the thing is most planet mu stuff sounds old and cliched after a while, wheras most rephlex/skam sounds retro and cool after a while.

*waits for bit meddler*
anyways i think the lack of discussion on any of their releases makes them forgettable. I rarely think of Mu when i think of music. Sad but true. Based on that trend i could see it overall killing them.
Not to say the artists are not talented but i sometimes wonder what their plan is.
I dont even know how to word this post.

Actually I really disagree with you, I consider rossz csillag to be weak and pro agonist and billous paths to be good.

the exile album had the typical planet mu style of *almost* being good, but either lacking somehting, or having unwanted things added, or just being repetative.
but hang on repetative can be good....well yes it can, but the exile isnt. its got a case of what i call copy and paste. i.e. you've got a good bit of song at 2 and a bit mins, so you copy and paste and perhaps tweak odd bits slightly but its just pants really. repetative only works when you have a good repeatable song.
as for planet mu, what are they on. at least warp is getting people into stuff, by popularising music which isn't necessarily pop. planet mu, wtf? virus syndicate? argh its just crap. please don't try to be cool or whatever it is mike p is doing.
mike p/planet mu is like the poor relation. you've got the big four, boc,afx,ae,sp. oh and then theres this guy uziq and his label, and they are just sub standard, and it shows.

I pity the people who are always wanting only something new and different and innovative that bucks the trend and sounds fantastic. I also pity the people who always only want the same tried and tested formula day in day out and cry if they hear something new.
There's room for both viewpoints. In fact, it should be mandatory.

People need to enjoy music more.
If you think Mu are going downwards, don't say it.
Don't buy an album, tell yourself thats it's shit before you've even listened to it.
If you know you won't like it i.e Snares - Meathole for some people on here...DON'T FUCKING BUT IT!

I don't think U-ziq is substandard at all. He was one the first pioneers of electronica in '93-94.

sad, but true. Same thing happened with Warp. The new BoC is the only good thing in months.
You should check out labels like n5MD, Ad Noiseam, Component. That's the stuff.
