oh dear. Tom , where is Squarepusher and what have you done with him?? When Squarepusher had a sense of humour he was still able to distort musicalfads like Garage into cracking tunes such as Red Hot Car but I think this has taken it too far. All those EDM 'drops' and Faux-Ibiza club melodies are at the end of the day still EDM drops and Faux Ibiza club melodies without any of that old jenkinson magic. ITs probably more complex in terms of the programming andcomposition but its sounds simplistic and cheap to me. Its an album that is made for a live setting, much like that last one, and even seems in many respects like a continuation of Ufabulum Granted this is after just one listen but I found myself so bored after 2-3 mins of every track, with the exception of the last one From: chaircrusher@gmail.com Date: Mon, 13 Apr 2015 14:08:58 +0000 Subject: Squarepusher Damogen Furies full album stream. To: idm@hyperreal.org ... so you can hate on it without paying for it. http://www.npr.org/2015/04/12/398358886/first-listen-squarepusher-damogen-furies I actually like "Stor Eiglass" more after hearing it a few times.

either way its more complex than nprs streaming audio system ;) Clint Anderson Systems Engineer On Mon, Apr 13, 2015 at 9:55 AM, CRAIG SIMPSON <craignorms@hotmail.com> wrote:

i feel like a 40 minute, 8 track album is just sort of halfassed to begin with its not bad tho i could do without the ufabulum (uf pabulum) sounding orchestral lead thing that he somehow got obsessed with Clint Anderson Systems Engineer On Mon, Apr 13, 2015 at 10:04 AM, Clint Anderson <clinta@gmail.com> wrote:
