Listened to this about 4 times today - it's extraordinary! Congrats to all that contributed. There are elements of each track that that really grab my attention, and as usual, it's great to hear a variety of styles, different interpretations of the theme. The care and craft are evident.

This, along with the fan compilations back to 2005 are now all uploaded to Archive.org, links in this thread
Free, unlimited downloads until the internet closes down, hopefully!

I miss your track Holden.

I have this on heavy rotation. Thre is so much outstanding work here, and the tracks work together as a complete album so well, it's almost as if a Dirty 'house style' has emerged spontaneously. These compilations keep getting better and better.

Re: Dirty Compilation 2010: Quietly Violent
 

Excellent work by everyone involved in this years comp, and possibly my fave artwork too Holden :)

I agree with LX Nen on the way the comp sounds like more of a complete piece of work than previous comps, almost as if everyone was in the same zone!

Also ace to have all previous comps immortalised on the interweb!

Track 1: "Scary Tale" by Advances in Obsolete technology. Sometimes i'm AViD, sometimes i'm Mental health Consumer, sometimes Down Team Up. Different names for the same thing - barely passable music! But once you get past my opener, the quality of the compilation really picks up!

great Tin Foil Hats music, by the way!

Dammit! Sorry I missed getting in on this one. Just too much life crap going on. But I'll download it tonight and be all of your biggest fan! Can't wait to hear it...

Where have you been, Sean? Internet's the new life. Seriously, man, get a smartphone and check your TOP 50 favourite lifestyle blogs (and tweet about it).

Re: Dirty Compilation 2010: Quietly Violent
 

:D See, all those names are too confusing for me.

Don't downplay your own contribution. I like it! And thanks for the compliments.

Ha! Been dealing with a spinal injury that ended in spinal surgery, and then with physical therapy to rebuild my strength, all while looking for a new job at studios all over the country. I've missed my internet life.

Re: Dirty Compilation 2010: Quietly Violent
 

Oh, fuck! Now that you've made me look like a fool... ( ;) )

"Spinal injury" as in prolapse/protrusion, or as in "ran my bike into a tree at a hundred mp/h"? Anyway, all the best for recovering, man. Hope it works out well for you in the end.

And just to be clear on this point: Screw the Internet (I'm still trying to detox from excessive use).
