I was just about to ask that. Warp is probably going to be a bastard and release it in 5 years.

Is the first thing i thought of, and it sounds brilliant!!!!

What do you think Stephen?

It might be a nod, but the effect in general has been used on plenty of tracks by other artists...it's just a auto-pan/filter with a square(ish?) wave modulating the volume at varying rates. That's hardly everything he's using in that section of the track, but it's responsible for the sound you're talking about.

I *really* like this sampler more than anything I've heard by him. This seems to be more like proper music in some way. A more rich and established sound. There's more going on so it seems; I like this a lot. But on the other hand it also seems I'm listening to various artists combined together. I hear influences from here and there combined in this sampler.

PS: I reckon it's the beats I'm excited about. Beats, rhythm, vocals, clicks & pops in stead of only guitarish noodling.

it is fair to say he has always had superior atmospherics on his side

regardless of style or content

some of the clips on the sampler sound fucking amazing

I'm interested to see how this album flows. It sounds like the range of styles here is so diverse that I'm really curious to find how he's hung the whole thing together. I've never really been that big a Bibio fan, but this has definitely caught my attention. Interesting..

I can definitely hear something of a Lone influence on the choppy beats in that sampler. Will be interesting to see how all those different styles fit together over an album.

more madlib and flying lotus I thought...

YELLOW · Post by **YELLOW** » Wed Apr 22, 2009 2:16 am

yeah i would say bibio's sampling type sound is more akin to flying lotus and j dilla more than anything else. inspiration from lone may be in there though, youre right.

you probably wont see this, but mexicola your SOTL banner fuckin rocks!

Thank you kindly!

I tried putting the words "Slow Down..." on there but it didn't really work. Less is more I guess?

Makes me think that Kubrick would have enjoyed SOTL immensely...

He was truly a slow mind, in the best of ways.
