sounded like complete weaksauce to me. more garbage that gets better
reaction than it deserves because the bar has been lowered to such a degree
that C-work gets an A
that said, I'm glad you're moved by it

Really feeling this, its something new and some old at the same time, in
the same way Black Secret Technology was. The vocals took a bit of
getting used but now they seem to form part of the soundscape as opposed
to being words to listen too.

The new Burial "Untrue" -- our friend TomCox turned me on to it. I
was underwhelmed by the first Burial CD, but 'Untrue' really hits me
hard.
There's nothing new about dub effects, vinyl crackle, sampled drums,
or vocal samples. But Burial applies his cutup methods to produce
something crazily funky, emotional and atmospheric. In particular
the track "Etched Headplate" which has a beat that verges on House
slays me. The start/stop beat has some teasing drama. Almost a
'Shades of Jae' effect.
In fact, to bring it back to Detroit, Burial reminds me a bit of
Moodyman and Theo Parrish, in the way he finds little fragmentary
samples and makes something out of them that leaves their original
context behind.
