Drift Ep. 3, Part 3 - This Must Be Drum Street (Film Edit)

[crank]

“Do you wanna buy my car?”

An electragliding city groove built on a sun-bleached low-rise bassline; the sound of a teeming high altitude metropolis heard from an open car window...


“La Dusseldorf’s unwritten love letter to Essex, podium dancers, solorised cities, markers by the side of the road as the migrant sons & daughters of Wales come home” - (Karl)

“Clouds…..Light…..Stone…..Trees”

If you like… Mo Move, Soniamode, Dark & Long (Dark Train), Cool Kids of Death (Underworld Mix), Air Towel, Cups (Salt City Orchestra Vertical Bacon Vocal Mix), Beautiful Burnout…then This Must Be Drum Street belongs to you.



Wow. hello Kraftwerk

surely just going on autotrader.com would be an easier way of doing this???

Quite a nice track. Don't mind the repetition at all.
Is that Rick's voice I'm hearing a few times?

[taotsu]

Sounds like Rick to me :)

I’m totally fascinated by this track. I do hate the 80s coz I lived through them, particularly the more poppy synth pop (notwithstanding that I went to see erasure twice in the 90s). But this track is like the missing link between synth pop and late 80s early 90s Eurotechno / Dance.

Perfectly first the seeming theme of this episode: 60s (Dune), 70s (Custard Speedtalk) and now the 80s. I know this is a total reach, but IDK. Let’s see what’s gonna come next week.

[holden]

Sort of surprised there's not much discussion about this track yet. (Hope we're not getting jaded or spoiled by the weekly new Drift releases already!)

i quite like this, it's simple but catchy. Love hearing Rick's voice reciting random(?) words when we'd expect Karl. Speaking of, Karl's two lines are so dreamily produced, they become like a calming mantra...especially if one puts the track on repeat as i did yesterday and today for commutes!

[taotsu]

Damn I really wanna know how the track continues. Argh.

[atticinsane]

Really into this track. Excellent groove to it. Like some of the other film edits,it hints at a longer run out that sounds intriguing, Hope we get the full version in a later release.

I also really dig the video for this one. The monochrome, the fizzing, vibrating words. Love it. Custard SpeedTalk's video with the split screen train journeys was also fantastic.

Drift has been brilliant so far. Loving Thursdays now. Underworld day.

Ohhhhh baby this track is just sooooooooo good. I made a 45-minute spliced-together version using Audacity, rechristened it as "Do You Wanna Buy My Car"? and just let it work its cinematic magic. Wow!!!!!

[dubman]

Pt.3 has been largely defined by could've-beens and singular fatal flaws inside of tracks i'd otherwise like. I still get excited for thursdays but this stretch keeps pulling the rug from under me. ah well.

[potatobroth]

whats the fatal flaw of Drum Street?

It ends without anyone buying his car.

[taotsu]

Let’s wait for the final edit. Maybe someone will then :)

1:23... i know it's a throwback and it's cute but it's a bit too corny to keep me in the vibe of it. still, i might get over if not for "do you wanna buy my car" being kind of a dopey line to repeat throughout.


getting to be a bit moot though as i stubbornly put on EP3 on while in the shower and found that all these things bothering me are bothering me a little less.

Finally watched the film...the rapidly changing fonts and layered words take me back to "Cowgirl" video, 90's era live show visuals and to an extent "Always loved a film". Playing with typography and flashing through layers of imagery...Hallmarks of Tomato. Love it.

All the stuff you cited is Graham Wood's work, but I see what you mean.
