New Venetian Snares album out today...

It's called Detrimentalist

Anyone heard it yet at all? I tried to buy it earlier but the shop didn't have it in stock.

There's a few mp3 samples of some of the tracks on the plant mu site, and it sounds pretty full on.

Anyone heard it and what do you think of it?

It's quite good. Got a heavy jungle feel to it.

MikeHunt79 · 9 Jun 2008 at 16:46

Bah, I caved in and bought it on MP3. :/

Anyway, I'm loving what I've heard if it so far.... Lot of Amen break goodness. Almost the complete opposite of My Downfall really...

Woohoo! For some reason, VS albums drop off my radar, so thanks for the timely reminder, Mike

I too caved in and coughed up for the mp3s; at least they're a decent bitrate.

If it's 'Amen-break madness meets Cavalcade Of Glee...' I'll be rather pleased. I may also impulse-buy Renoise

[EDIT: Ooh... me likey! Circle Pit has an immense ending!

Yep I've been rinsing most of the day. It's awesome! I couldn't stop grinning the first time I heard Sajtban...

I have renoise, but it isn't the easiest thing to use, some of the edits are insane. Have you seen the youtube vid for Vache?

It's almost like the video is at the wrong speed! :eek:

Yep it's not exactly top40 material, but it's had a lot more listens than the pendulum album so far

had it on in background today. better than i was expecting having not listened to much of there stuff

Hellsmk2 · 10 Jun 2008 at 15:00

Only had a brief listen to it - it's sounding pretty good at the moment, but it's not got me as hooked as Choclate Wheelchair or Winnepeg did first time round!
