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.
Rav. -----Original Message----- From: kent williams [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 07 November 2007 16:03 To: list 313 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.
