Peverelist - Jarvik Mindstate

dis-integration [Edit] [Delete] 12:49, 29 November '09

Finally got it! First impressions - absolutely stunning, and even better than anything he's ever done before (by quite some way).

It's one of those records that deserves a far wider audience than it's likely to get, as it does a neat job of skimming along the edges of genres without ever being easily pigeonholed. There's the obvious techno influence in there, plus certain beats that sound quite dubsteppy, but a large portion of it has that old school Bristolian Smith & Mighty/Massive Attack dubbed-out soul sound. 'Yesterday I Saw The Future' has a definite jungle edge to it as well, all syncopated breakbeats and asymmetric percussion.

Also, as 'Bluez' has been knocking around as a dub for so long, I thought I would have gotten bored of it by now, but hearing the full version at high quality is spectacular.

Anyone else got it yet/looking forward to it?
