Whatever. I prefer voodoo ray, the one song, to that entire album. Soz if that's not right
only rockist "electronica" fans talk about the albums they made after gerald left like they're classics. after that they have their moments, i guess, but are pretty gross on the whole.
Replied then deleted. I dunno, I think they had a radio show at one point which was really good? Sure I've listened to some bits of that. And maybe Gerald is really difficult. But I love voodoo ray in a way that nothing on new build moves me. I did used to like the other one, Pacific state
yeah it has a very different vibe than voodoo ray, which is almost pop acid house. newbuild is much harder and more labyrinthine. so i can see how with voodoo ray or pacific state as the reference point it wouldn't seem very good.
didn't know they had a radio show, could be interesting.

We all despise Stevie Wonder. He is vilified here, correctly.

eh it's not that obscure a description. even people on reddit use similar language.

there's actually one really good jungle album aswell.
much better than Goldie timeless.
well, it's more a compilation but if we're playing the rockist electronica card.
not a dud.
sound of music foul play remix is just otherworldly.

Don't know what you mean mate, sorry
So I have to not like anything at all? Then it's ok to not like newbuild?
Not an album. If we start letting in comps, youll start saying mixes are ok. Albums mate
labyrinthine in the sense that it's hard to get your bearings in a given track. there's always a lot happening at once, but almost no large scale changes, so you're constantly hearing something and thinking, "wait, has that always been like that?" the way the music resists being mentally mapped out makes it more mysterious and immersive. (and "trippy" if i can use that word.
)voodoo ray has that too, but it's not quite as "advanced" as newbuild in that respect.
of course the appeal of this approach is another matter...
and yeah, "harder" in the sense that it's not so much pretty as "mental" and high intensity, as barty pointed out. more of a harsh, eerie sci fi atmosphere as well.
