i bought it today and im totally loving it!!! perhaps my favourite air album and im only just getting into it. beautiful melancholic stuff, it makes my brain kind of itchy...it's just so beautiful...
the 10.000 hz album was way more uptempo than this one. sounds a lot like moon safari, little less cheesy and production is way better.
my favourite tunes for now are: -run -universal traveler -mike mills (that piano part is just excellent!!!) -alone in kyoto (also on lost in translation soundtrack)
anyone else likes it?? -

isn't there some really easy way to get around the whole copy protection thing right now? i thought i heard something like all you have to do is press the Shift button or the Ctrl button when you start to copy it... something ridiculously easy like that...

don't know about that...but i had lots of troubles ripping drukqs, i even tried with audio burner but no luck...
i heard it should work if you color the outside line of the cd, but i wouldn't wan't to fuck up the cd :)...haven't seen it done yet and im not going to try it :)
ophecks, im sure you0re going to get the original when you hear it, it's just so good...so no biggie crime in that
actually i downloaded and burn't another cd already

so this isn't already out everywhere? Hmmm, I was itching to buy another nice cd, so maybe this is one for me...
so it's better then Moon Safari, more melencholic you say? Cool, I might check it out!

well, it's better to me :) i liked some tunes on moon safari very very much, but this new one is better as a whole i'd say...and yes, definitely way more melancholic!
its like a mixture of virging suicides and moon safari and a little of 10.000 HZ as well :)

holy hell it's queued to a million! tons of hits on slsk, but i'm like 1000th in line for all of them.
i loved moon safari much more than 10,000hz legend, so i'm looking forward to this :) i really got tired of moon safari though, becuase i loved it and played it non stop for so long.

if you're talking about Nigel Godrich, he did shit with Beck (Mutations and Sea Change), Radiohead (on a lot of their releases...), Travis, and he was supposed to produce the new strokes album... but then things weren't working out, so thet went with their old producer gordon raphael instead...

im trying not to listen to it too much yet as i know im going to buy it. the single is out next week. i think you only have a promo version of the cd, there's been quite a few around and i don't know if it differs at all from the proper version.

i read the review on the milkfactory today...they gave it 3,5/5
if anyone is interested they can read the review here
"Perhaps more than ever before, Talkie Walkie shows how the band’s career has been hampered by the incredible success of their first proper album. If not a bad album by any means, Talkie Walkie still lacks the spark that made Moon Safari, and to a lesser extend, 10,000Hz Legend, such interesting records."
i don't agree with this actually :)
about the promo - im not sure what it is, it looks like the proper release, with inlay and everything...tho i read somewhere that there is going to be a release with a dvd included (with 6 videos i think)...if the tracks on proper release are the same length i don't mind if i have a promo :)
anyway, it's a great album...

bupmage for the best album ever.
man, this is easily be in the top 10 for 2004 i think. even alongside new boc, sq, and possibly aphex and all the rest.
damn, i loved it at the first listen, and its still growing on me. i haven't liked a whole album this much in a long long time. top notch
*playing it again (and again and again and again)*

I cant wait to get it
I love Alone In Kyoto (heard it in Lost In Translation), and last night I saw a music video for... um. shit forgot the name, sherry something something?
It had some singing, and flutes and stuff.
It was really nice
although the video was really sad... about this girl who does porn, cause she needs money, and she drugs herself before the scene.
Then she is on her way home, and gets beaten and raped :-\
A good, but sad video.
But like I said, great music too!

probably cherry blossom girl...awesome tune, but as i said already, the whole album is beautiful.
it's just so catchy...yesterday i went to visit my parents and my sister went along and we were listening walkie talkie and she also loved it at first listen.
"although the video was really sad" the whole album has a very melanholic touch to it, it's sad but makes you feel good (if that makes any sense heh)

if we get another 2 releases this good in 2004 it's going to be splendid.
these two are going to be ultravisitor (i just know it hehe) and the other one should be new aphex :)
