What do you think about the new BT Album? I expected TRANCE/BREAKS but i got some second rate idm |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Haven't listened to BT since he kept putting his ugly mug on the front of his CD's. I loved the Ima album though. |
||||||||

I've heard clips from this and it sounds stunning. It's certainly not what I'd call "second rate IDM", you cockeater. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
it could be base anything |

BT = British Telecom, no? JT = Japanese Telecom i wonder who would win in a battle. BT has the voice/data infrastructure and user-base but JT has crazy electro |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
no, BT stands for "Beyond Telecom", haven't you seen the ads? (no wait that can't be right...) |
||||||||

Haha, trade it for the new Hybrid album, probably more the sort of thing you're looking for (very good btw) ;) |

cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeseball |
||||||||
|

|
|
yup, i like it. i want to know why he changed. |

I love this album. It's a perfect blend of dramatic cinematic melodies and glitchy beats. I highly recommend it. I could see why fans of BT's previous work would be confused by this release, though. |

will i like this or not? btw i love movement in still life |

BT = Big Turd |

it has some good moments, it's not the best album there is, but most of the songs are over 10 minutes long, i wouldnt call them epic because of that but he does a good job of making it unboring |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
some tracks sound like the sort of music you would hear for the intro to some crappy tv series |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hahahaha, well described. it's certainly a departure, but the melodies aren't very strong for the most part; the tracks are all near-identical and it sounds a bit like a gayer jon hopkins with more glitchy percussion. i don't like it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
crappy TV shows must have pretty good music, then. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, I don't really like this one anymore (and I actually really quite like his 'poppy' stuff sometimes, it's nice loud in the car, in spite of the album covers and lyrics.) I was hoping for an interesting blend of glitchy stuff and classical elements, but the melodies and harmonies seemed pretty damn uninspired to me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Maybe what inspires him has changed. |
||||||||

i think this album epitomizes the weird OCD like mentality that some amazing ridiculously talented producers fall into. they toil endlessly over the production to make it sound absolutely perfect and polished as hell and the music itself ends up sounding very souless and not very interesting and very very uninspired. the surround sound version of this album is very impressive though, just for the production aspect but the regular stereo version i haven't even been able to listen to the whole thing, its pretty boring. |

this might mean more to me, if it wasn't his interns that do the majority of the editing and hard work. he has a team of young kids making software for him, doing edits for him etc. This is not the work of a single man toiling away in front of the computer, but of a guy telling a bunch of interns what to do. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha really? i need to get me some philippine kids to do my album for me whilst i sit and watch tv and eat pie. it's the future. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Seriously? Woah, this is news to me. I thought he was known for his abilities at all those edits and so on. Why wasn't a team credited on the album, then? I've done some stuff with Tim Simeon (who produced Depeche Mode's 'Ultra' album) and he has a team of people doing sounds for him. They're always credited. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Seriously. I mean, yes, he came up with the whole sample accurate time correcting editing thing, but he no longer does it himself, as its such a tedious process, so he has his interns do it. Why don't they get credited? No idea. |

Why the hell has such a pile passed through your ears? I'd like an answer. |

There is actually a DVD video disc that comes with the 2CD - so it's primarily intended as an audio visual release. Some of the songs tie in very well with the videos, less so without. |

I admit the electric guitar stuff on this album is pretty cheesy.. I dunno, I like this album a lot as a backing to visuals, as music to do work to, or as video game backing music. I've never actually sat down and JUST listened to the music, I'm always doing something else while I enjoy it. Maybe I'd feel differently if I just tried to listen to the album by itself. |
