Re: Bonus Track of Strawberry Hotel: Velvet Does
Some of our best singers are bad singers. Leonard Cohen, David Berman comes to mind. While Karl isn't exactly in that company, there's value in it. I can't say that I know what they're doing, but I...

Re: Strawberry Hotel - Dirty reviews
this doesn't sound like engagement though, it sounds like molding underworld because you don't like what they've done. That sounds like recoiling from any true engagement.

Re: Strawberry Hotel - Dirty reviews
I feel like we're talking about different things if we're comparing this to DJ edits and remixes. those embrace the original and rearrange the furniture so that it'll fit a set, or reveal its...

Re: Strawberry Hotel - Dirty reviews
This is perverse and I am against it. Small strangenesses like these characterize underworld tracks throughout every album. let it click or reject it, but stop squirming and making it fit what you're...

Re: Strawberry Hotel - new album out 25th Oct
Finished this last night. Says enough to unlock a new view on a deep catalog, but holds back enough to not be a tell-all. the contrast between the struggle to land somewhere meaningful, and the diary...

Re: Strawberry Hotel - new album out 25th Oct
All this talk of it finally has me picking up my copy for an actual read instead of a casual flip down memory lane of the old uwlive. I also haven't played out the entirety of Drift in some time so...

Re: Strawberry Hotel - new album out 25th Oct
I think it was Autechre that said it takes a new album for everyone to finally get used to and accept their last album for what it is.
It's getting funnier to me that this duo continually evolves...

Re: Strawberry Hotel - new album out 25th Oct
This all sounds really lively. Considering the track times, I think they're focusing on the song-based approaches of Listen to their No, or JAL, or Parc, or Crocodile and building an album around it,...

Re: Strawberry Hotel - new album out 25th Oct
I will say I've had Techno Shinkansen running in my head for the last 3 days. I finally went to go listen to it on YouTube today, even though I'm trying to limit that, only to find it taken off! ...

Re: I'm In Fucking Underworld?
Someone guessed that it’d be a home for Fen Violet-type collabs that might coalesce into wider releases, which I agree with and think it’s a fine way to keep exploring Barking-type possibilities...

Re: Strawberry Hotel - new album out 25th Oct
I rarely hear about releases ahead of time, unless I have their insta added. Most of the time I'm pleasantly surprised by the custom RYM release calendar, which only goes ahead by a month or so. very...

Re: Strawberry Hotel - new album out 25th Oct
I also revisited Techno Shinkansen today just to feel out how it goes after Denver Luna, and it makes more sense that way than as a standalone (which I wasn't too plussed by). Did notice that the...
