Ok, this is it, im so happy right now. I got the chance to hear Clarks new album Body Riddle and what can I say... Im quite chocked at the moment and havent been excited like this since I first heard Roygbiv back in 98. You can really hear how much time he put in this work, its astonishing! the sublte details on this album are second to none this year. Im so impressed by the way the work of Body Riddle is done, its such a fresh album and really is something else. I must say that I find it hard that their will be a better album by anyone this year and I dont buy a lot of albums these days but I will certainly go out and cop this one!!! You can hear that he put his soul and heart into this album (as he did with his others also), but I was a bit worried after I heard Throttle Furniture wich I also really like but I wanted more emotional music like Herr Bar on the full album and not dancey tunes like the other ones. What the album have is fantastic material in the same vein as Herr Bar, an album cant get more emotional than this..what about the epic final track!!!! :O the album is short, sweet and tasty :D You can feel and hear how much effort he layed on this one, you feel the frustration, the anger, the passion and the sadness all over it...its such a beauty that you cant describe with words, you have to hear it by yourself, do yourself a favour and order the album NOW!!!!!!!! You wont be dissapointed. Album of the year, hands down. |

Nice stuff. I'm really looking forward to this album. Haven't heard it, and I guess I'm gonna stay away from SLSK and just preorder it from Warp so I can check my mailbox like an excited little kid. |

Hey you shouldn't listen to that cunt Archrival, hes just a silly fanboy, he gets sooo excited over every little shit record! :( hehe...no seriously this is a MASTERPIECE in my humble opinion. |

i enjoyed throttle riddle more, the sound seems more compatible with what he did with the tracks there. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yay its all about taste, but for all those who like Herr Bar the most from the EP..I think they will love this one..its such a strong and melancholic album. |

haha perfect. this album is a big let down and no reason to get worked up. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|

I'm with Staz. The EP was a lot better. The albums isn't terrible by any means. In fact it's quite good but I had my hopes up for something more from the strength of the EP. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
naaah no way thats impossible :P :D but I think those who likes Herr Bar will reaaaaally like it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its all about taste and I respect that but yeah if u like the other tracks on the EP, the more dancey dnb and frau wav stuff then you will be dissapointed, but if u like more hip hop style beats a la Herr Bar then u are in for a ride :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i just want harsh beats and not that ambient tracks all idmish artist like to put in their albums and that finally are only filler tracks...beats, destruction, dead and love! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
my only let down with it is that it seems short. and I wanted a track or two like urgent Jell Heck to destroy my eardrums with |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
he over did the herr bar style drums and ruined it for me. should've just been left at throttle furniture. he's fucked things up rightly. hello everything ftw |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what!?, the album could have been called "beats, destruction, dead and love" :D dunno what everyone is talking about.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yay! :D i trust you, archie. youre always entusiasthic, but in a wise way. or, at least, your taste is similar to mine... cant wait for the album to arrive home! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

the production on the album is incredible, beats or no. the way sounds interact with one another is also something i havent heard any other idm artist do properly (or any artist do, really). the mixture of field recorded sounds and synthesis. it's short, to the point, nothing is too lengthy. i normally don't care for ambience mixed with "beat heavy" music, but here it works perfectly. instead it's just part of the whole, and very seamless. it's a unique and heavy record. absolutely one of my favorites of this year, if not my overall favorite. hopefully it's "non-wicked beats! man i want wicked beats for 6 minutes straight god damnit i am so pissed argfh idm drill n bass" status does not work against it. |

if he can overdo empty the bones of you which easily is my favourite album after drukqs, then i would be surprised.. not really amazed, because i know he can do it! |
||||||||
|
|

I've told you so for the last 3 years or so. I'm going to get my copy when it's released. cant wait. |

"archie. youre always entusiasthic" hehe yeah it seems like, but if the haters (not you :)) really think about it, they will realise that im only jumping on the dick (hyping like theres no tomorrow) of a artist who really really deserves it, and like I said imo Clark MADE IT!!! well fuck it, "Disasemble" described what I tried to describe in a much better way so read his post :D im not that good at english :/ anyway read what Clark himself said, interesting stuff (from milkfactory) Many journalists have struggled to adequately describe your music over the years. It seems something that you are reticent to do as well. If you were forced to describe it what would you say? Heheh , Forced how? Like now in an email or something a bit more sinister? I think it’s a good thing that people struggle to find descriptive terms and lingo. With the new LP I suspect this may be even more apparent. Hopefully the time I have spent honing the new material has paid off and will demonstrate this with total precision (that last sentence sounds quite amusing if you read it to yourself in a German accent). It doesn’t sit easily as a genre piece of any kind. That’s why I will never be as commercially ubiquitous as say Mylo (is that a good example? I dunno) but also hopefully shows why my conviction in music is deep-rooted, and is, clearly to anyone who knows me good and proper, a life long pursuit. Even a lifetime is nothing, a blip in terms of the musical landscape you can explore. I’m sorry to make life awkward with my reticence. I guess a central thing in a lot of the new tracks on the LP is that feeling of “what is it? I don’t know what this is?” It definitely isn’t techno, hip-hop, IDM, drum and bass, classical, death metal, electro, acoustic. But elements of all of these “fashions” must somehow permeate my work. I feel it is just not up to me to tell you how and in which way they do, and in which way the listener should interpret any hidden meanings that may be buried beneath the surface fabric of the music. In a sense |

this relative absence of my “writer’s intention” is totally undeliberate… It’s not like I even know myself what my music says and this is how I want it. Rather than explore one sentiment go between the spaces; consider the contradictions. For instance on completion of one track for the LP I was so chuffed I pegged around Birmingham on my bike for ages... partly shit scared that I would die before handing my LP in, whilst also laughing my head off, grinning maniacally and simultaneously weeping for joy. It must have looked a right sight. Quite what this is supposed to say about the human soul I really don't know. Well said Clark, im feeling it (whatever it is)! :D |

oh... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
>the production on the album is incredible Yah but the problem for me is the production is too simillar on all the tracks, everything sounds like it's at the bottom of a mine. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i didn't like 'empty the bones of you' and have ignored this guy since. but since everyone is creaming about this, i put in 'empty the bones...' again tonight. i still don't like it. therefore, i am reluctant to bother with 'body riddle.' i'll probably just steal it like everything else and give it a sniff anyway though. |

Everything Tolstoyed says is wack...me LIKE!!! :D its good for you and me Tolstoyed we got the exact total opposite taste, and everything that you praise I think is shit :) so its good to check out eachothers recommendatiosn to see what to stay away from or what to maybe check out :) goood stuff :D Melack: Staz is talking about Throttle Furniture, not Throttle Clark. |

It happened to Autechre. It can happen to CC |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah it appears we don't like similar music, though we both liked analord from what i remember. "an album cant get more emotional than this" dunno what to say to this..i wonder where you get these emtions from..emotional in what way? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

he's still young yeah so maybe he'll start making something worthwhile because this is just dull.. |
