||||||||

U2's Discothèque contains a sample from "Fane" by Freeform Any use…? |
||||||||
|

|

damn, the more i listen to it the weaker it sounds :( i wish there was something subtle to it, but i just can't hear it..it sounds a bit cheesy even. it has some nice interesting turns but overall it sounds too easylistening, background music..is it just me? |

this album is far more accessable than a lot of his other work, and yeah, the more I listen to it, the weaker it sounds, which is a shame because I had REALLY good first impressions of it, audiotourism, on the other hand gets better the more I hear it... |
||||||||

yes, i agree with that.. i hope qrter sees this..he's an expert on freeform i think :) |

damn i love this album as much as i love human or the other tracks i got on compilation... |

you have more freeform than I have, I think. at first I didn't like it very much and I got this idea that he might be better in short doses (I didn't like "human" all that much either, but I did already love the "wildcat" EP, but that's only one EP so.. oh dear.) but this new album has started to grow on me. and it is filled with subtle little sounds I think (for example the progression in sounds used on "magic tap" or the build-up in "puzzle"). I think a lot of it has that same effect that (for me) "tewe" on "chiastic slide" has - I can't exactly hear the melody but I get to fill in a lot myself (the 2nd track "taking me over" is a good example, I think). I do think he has his own distinctive sound. I also can see why you'd think it's cheesy - he borders on it some time, maybe uses the singing a bit too much. for me he really tips over that border in that track with the Brazilian carnival kind of drum track in the background - I can't remember the name of the track, but that one is just too cheesy for me. |

you have heard more freeform, at least. maybe you also have more, I don't know. |

Pattern Tub, Green Park, Audio Tourism and Wildcat are the best Freeform releases in my book. Top-notch. |
||||||||
|

|
|
I did like "audio tourism" too, yes. uses source sounds really well in that. |
||||||||
|

freeform is awesome..... i have yet to listen to his new stuff though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

great, just what i needed, thank you! i've only listened to it couple of times so far, so i'll play it few more times now and see what happens.. i normally wouldn't because i really found it that disappointing so far, but if you say it's growing on you it might grow on me as well. anyway, i have until 29th to write that review so hopefully it's going to inspire me before that. i don't know how much freeform i've got really..most stuff i have is stuff that isn't exactlly his really..he definitely has a sound of his own but this went in a direction fourtet and manitoba went (not same kind of music, but they all seem to have gone more pop..). |

any more thoughts on this? i thought skam artist were popular around here :) |
||||||||
|
|

i really like this one. i got human and audiotourism as well. audiotourism drives me round the fucking bend. i hate it! but i like the other two, but took me a while to get into human. outside in (or whatever its called) i liked straight away. so there. |

what i couldn't send yesterday because of connexion problems... ctrl-v to me that's a great release. i love the use of acoustic instruments/samples, i rarely hear music where acoustic playing and samples sequencing/processing fit so well together. there is really a mood/atmosphere in each track. the "time stand stiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiill" effect in track 4 is really a simple yet clever thing, that is not here just to make an impression or create a surprise, but to get a verbal meaning across. it really speaks to me. that said i don't get the general meaning of the lyrics because i don't uinderstand english well enough, so maybe they're shit, i don't know. track 6 is loveliness. there are very few tracks in electronic music with such sensitivity imo. i used to love track 7 in the tdr video that's on the warp dvd, and i couldn't tell if i love this track so much because of the video (that almost moved me to tears). i love its atmosphere though for sure. i wish i could do this. don't like the carnival track. i think the tracks after that less impressed me, but i love freeform's sound (which is subtle and special) so even if the track speaks less to me i still enjoy hearing it, because of the sounds and the attention brought to the details, how the sounds are placed in the spectrum/time dimensions. one of my favourite recent purchases (if not the first of those). |
