Prefuse 73

Come late February, the legendary Warp Records will unveil
Security Screenings, Herren's latest opus under the Prefuse
moniker

Described in his press release as "a masterclass in
sliced-up breakdance noise rock," Security will feature
collaborations with kindred souls Four Tet and TV on the
Radio's Babatunde Adebimpe. While the collabo-heavy
Surrounded By Silence employed extensive vocal work from
guest stars, Security sees Herren returning primarily to
"the type of intricate instrumental material that slayed
fans in the first place." So prepare to be slain by the
following cuts, glitch-hoppers:

01 The Letter: "P"
02 With Dirt and Two Texts-- Afternoon Version
03 Illiterate Interlude
04 Keeping Up With Your Quota
05 No Special Bed
06 Weight Watching
07 When the Grip Lets You Go
08 Always It's Gonna Be Like That
09 Creating Cyclical Headaches [ft. Four Tet]
10 Awakening to a...
11 With Dirt and Two Texts-- Later Version With Love
12 No Origin
13 One Star and Three Stripes
14 Mud in Your Breath
15 Breathe
16 Matrimonioids... (for: Elivin + Susana Estela)
17 We Leave You in a Cloud of Thick Smoke and Sleep Outro
[ft. Babatunde Adebimpe]

I myself havent even listened to the last one, as i felt the
samples i heard sucked. So i hope this is better.

I enjoyed a lot of Surrounded By Silence, some of the vocals
worked for me...Pastel assasins, now youre leaving and
hideyaface (although i prefer the orchestral reprise version
of that one)

One Word Extinguisher/Extinguished still remains my
favourite release, but im excited about this new one.

Extinguished outtakes is just pure gold.

i love one word/outtakes and vocal studies. surrounded by
silence was a bit too uneven for me, but some of the tracks
are absolute KILLER. just the though with masta killa and
gza is some of the best stuff i've heard from him AND
mk/gza. i really REALLY wish that herren would do an entire
fucking album along with gza, although that will never
happen.

well, actually not some of the best by gza. the entire
liquid swords album is better.

ive never really got into prefuse 73 - mainly out of not
being bothered to go out and buy any - he's good i take it?
what artists are similar?

"what artists are similar?" - well, that's a tough one,
since there are not too many IDM/hip-hop ensembles out
there... But a connection could me made to more "classic"
warp artists such as Nightmares on Wax or Anti-Pop
Consortium - although, to be frank, Prefuse73 is much better
in my mind.

Actually some of the instrumental tracks remind me of Two
Lone Swordsmen, Autechre and Björk all at the same time.

As for this release-- it's great how prolific they've been!
New albums or EPs released all the time!

"sliced-up breakdance noise rock"

..is that what they've meant he's doing all along?

If so, I may want this, if not.. I don't know.

I've only ever heard One Word Extinguisher and it's
excellent. Comparitively, the last album is bland and
boring, like the front cover. It was very different to OWE
though. It's nice that there are still prolific releases
coming out, unlike the Autechre boys, who are content with 8
new tracks every two years at the moment.

There is some real gold on the new one, I'm not a huge fan
of the rap tracks but there is lots more to enjoy. The
Broadcast collab, Blonde Redhead collab (one of my fave
tracks this year prob), Bad Memory Interlude One, Minutes
Away Without You, LA Correction Exchange... some of his best
stuff is on here. I listen to it more than the previous ones
although I really like them too.

REALLY looking forward to this one, possibly could top SBS.
Prefuse is kind of unique really... ultra-modern,
progressive, innovative, orignal, rythmic, emotive... I
think he embodies the WARP aesthetic more than anyone else
on the roster since the late nineties, really, dispite not
sounding like the stereotypical warp IDMer.
