I just bought it on itunes. I'm at a loss for words...

It's a different kind of Bibio - it's a different kind of lo-fi. His first two albums were really scratchy and distorted; Vignetting the Compost is incredibly warm. You don't get how warm and analogue 'Mr and Mrs Compost' feels on YouTube. It's so amazingly warm.

i know i know i know... damn it's beyond warm.

Interesting that the degradation isn't consistent throughout the album. Some tracks sound really clean, while others sound like they've been found in a dusty, 50-year-old tape deck in the attic. In the last two albums, the general sound was continuous through each track.

Maybe this is what the "compost" refers to...each track is in a different stage of decomposition.

buying it from itunes right now

I so needed this, I've been really really upset the past few days. I listened to it through like eight times already and its really making me feel better about life.


So powerful...

AAaargh, can't wait, can't wait. I want to join you guys in astonishment..
A few more days now.

Bibio!!!!

This could be album of the year

The closing bit (with vocals) on Great are the Piths absolutely kills me each time I hear it. Ever since hearing Abberiw I've been looking forward to more songwriter work, because I felt that track showed massive potential.

Still listening to the stream, can't access iTunes for mp3s (hopefully mush will put them up today as well). Waiting for the vinyl...

Downloading thru iTunes as we speak..
can't wait!!1

just wondering, for whoever already has the album... does the track "torn under the window light" include the little artists valley jingle in the beginning like it does on the youtube video for it??

Since coming home which was at 3:30 ish i haven't stopped playing this,i think it reminds me of a dream....yes zzzzzzzzzzz hmmmmmmmmm it's warm in here..

And also:

"Congratulations to Bibio, whose track "Abberiw" from his upcoming Vignetting The Compost full-length, has been licensed for use in the trailer in the trailer for Paramount's new release Friday The 13th."

Anyone else finding the Mush website an absolute pain the arse tonight? It seems to freeze with unerring regularity. Never really enjoyed Bibio up to now, but after weeks of ignoring this thread I figured "If you can't beat em join em" and checked out the preview tracks. Fan-friggin-tastic!

I JUST WANT TO BUY THE BLOODY CD NOW! Arrgh!
