A day early! and couldn't be happier with the way this sounds so far. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
good luck with that. I'm not feeling it in the least bit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the last track sounds allright. the rest...I don't know. it sounds so overly compressed and difficult to listen to. the melodies or whatever are way to loud compared to the beats. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it has, like, normal beats, which is not bad. and the mixing is, well, what you expect of him. not bad for a clark album though. i'm just not a big fan. dunno. perhaps it should sink in a little more. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
everyone complains about that typical clark mixing (and rightly so). the man must have a hearing-disorder for not improving it. or he's incredibly stubborn. i wonder whether the vinyl-edition sounds (slightly) better |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its just supposed to sound like that I love it that way and he got his own mixing style and sound wich is good....no one could make a "clark" fake I suppose...I think hes very good when it comes to making a nice sound and production...dont like 4 to floor beats tho so what I think about this album you can go figure |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Not bad for Clark. It's deffinately worth 3-4 listens. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the sound is pretty garbage, at least he should learned to compress well. the compositions too. i know he's got some talent in there (guitar solo is still one of my favorite 'idm' tracks), but recently his sound just gets on my nerves. |

sounds kinda angry |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it needs time to sink in. there's a lot of depth there and some fine tunes, but only apparent after 6 or 7 plays. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
new year storm and volcan horn are really nice the rest of it is pretty generic and boring. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Have the whole album and it's pretty fucking good. I used to not care much about his music, but recently I gave Body Riddle more listens and it's pretty damn good. I like his style, and I like the new album. After more listens perhaps I'll even start loving it. |

i like ache of the north enough but i dont know. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i like this. what exactly is the "mixing style" everyone dislikes so? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
diggin from the first listen, quite amazing passages/soundscapes. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm not keen on this at all, and I normally defend his music. But I suppose it would work well on dance floors. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
New year storm and Fourwolve crew best tracks// I read somewhere that these are his revisitations to his old hardcore raver tracks he did. so the compression makes a little sense there. I still like them theyre fun to drive to. Body Riddle only had Ted, Roullette thrift run & Herr bar Clark is very hit or miss. the only full release I like every track on is Empty the Bones of You |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i almost thought they'd be perfect for dancefloor. but then half the tracks fall into that synth only outro thing that clark does so often (on body riddle). so it sounds like its meant to be listened to at home, but i dunno. i can't work it out :P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i guess it's the lack of dynamics that is the concern (what (isnieZot said) - like pumping up a ballon beyond what it can take... "dancefloor" whateva, please - dancetracks can use a bit of dynamics anyway... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The first track is very good, the rest? Well.. Kind like his other records but with more simple beats.. Nothing too catchy and interesting though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"Body Riddle only had Ted, Roullette thrift run & Herr bar" Well, I think some of the other tracks were rather beautiful, too, even if they weren't us upbeat as those three. I'd personally rather have stuff more akin to the more ambient and/or intricate moments of "Body Riddle" and "Empty the Bones of You" than this mindless rave/synthy stuff. |
||||||||

i've found this to another place. The first picture shows "Frau Wav from Body Riddle, from a Vinyl source". The second shows " Frau Wav from the CD source after an idiot mastering engineer has hit it with a Waves L2/3 limiter." The third "And, finally, this is a track from the new CD... Notice any difference from the original (non limited) vinyl body riddle example??" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that overcompression is stupid. this is probably the only reaasn i don't listen to body riddle more often because it just exhausts my ears to fast |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
holy shit, i need a vinyl rip. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like some ambient but it drains me. makes me sleepy. I work an 11 hr day not including the drive. Ive got no real need for ambient. I dont have much need for ravey synths. but clarks freestyle transitions amuse the shit outta me// |

Violenl is quality |

Just made this my first CD purchase in ages. Starts off not that great, second track Volcan Veins grates a bit, but it improves dramatically to become a decent album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yea, im finding the second half of the record much better than the first half, especially the track penultimate persian... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and the last 30 seconds of truncation horn. beg. for wolves crew. fuck, this keeps getting better.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i love truncation horn in its entirely |
||||||||

clark is the new venetian snares |

Anyone found any American stores to buy this- tried forcedexposure.com and ear-rational.com, nothing mentioned :( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this shit's boring, I'm sorry for Clark |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah. I would never be against the idea of him doing a dancefloor-ish album per se - I still enjoy a lot of breakbeat/dance/whatever pieces of musics. But this is just a bit nothing. It's Meh. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it feels somehow 'empty' to me, there's really not much to enjoy, except for the beats, but we've heard them many times before. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it would and it will work excellent on the dancefloor though so that's something. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
throttle furniture was nice but that album is nothing for me |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

It's funny how all the Volumes are to the MAX until he himself gets bored of the whole thing and weasel's out of the tracks with an apologetic breakdown. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
all i hear when i listen to this is all of the reasons people hate clark. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Haha! It's a shame as he's obviousley put a lot of effort in, probably in the wrong places but that's putting your music out there. You should give him a clip around the ear and sort him out. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha, i take you're not involved with warps public relations. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The guy can sure pull out some nice drum sounds, though. They've got a real "thwak!" to them. He is in no way a "bad" producer - well, apart from the mastering, which is more extreme here than it's ever been (I don't think "Empty the Bones of You" suffers as much). This album is just a bit more like a little prick of spit than a full globule of healthy mucus spit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yea, im a huge supporter/defender of his...but i think this record is off the mark. for me at least. i dont like the rave/techno/whatever sound at all, so this doesn't do much for me. it also doesn't help that quaristice came out a day after this. thing i hate most about clark is when he pops on when i am listening to my ipod on shuffle and it scares the shizzle out of me and my speakers. ugh. |

Clark + JivverDicker = El Oh El! |

It sounds amazing while high. The first track at least. |
