Hi everyone... been a long time since I've posted, but this was
noteworthy enough!
... 'Frequencies': Yea, a good album, but nothing spectacular.
... 'Tied Up': Everything spectacular! I didn't expect all that much
from LFO when I picked this up to listen to at the store, but after the
first mix I listened to (the original), I thought... hmm I'm going to
buy this. Dropping into the second mix, an electro version of the song,
I started to get really excited about the thing. It's damn good! And
as it turns out, each additional mix I listened to made me like it more
and more. Definitely some great music here.
For those with the CD single, here's the 2x12" track listing.
12" #1: Tied Up
Tied Up Electro
Tied Up (Sweep Mix) :: very cool- faster and scratchier, with
nice, fresh sounds.
Tied Up (Acid Mix) :: ok, this one I didn't like all that much,
but it's not too bad. Just not my style.
12" #2: Tied Up - Spiritualized "Electric Mainline Remix"
:: also a great track- more moody than the
others
Nurture :: Ambientish thing... also good. Not
outstanding, but noteworthy I guess.
I like it.
So there it is. An 8/10 in my book.
