Indeed, something 'OT' which is quite *on* T and very welcome. I felt
the same about the first Burial but I will check this now. Thanks!

Subject: (313) OT -- something actually new, I think


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.
