Paul White LP out today

Post by mrbeatnick » Mon Jun 01, 2009 9:06 am

http://www.paulwhitemusic.co.uk/

it's available digitally, physically (as a cd in a cute lil pillowcase) and there are also special DELUXE editions.. they are

£200: high-quality download, the ltd edition handmade, hand-stamped pillowcase CD, and an afternoon making beats with Paul in Lewisham. With tea and quite possibly biscuits.

£300: high-quality download, the ltd edition handmade, hand-stamped pillowcase CD and an afternoon making beats with Paul in Lewisham, after which we'll send you a dubplate with 2 exclusive beats made that day that absolutely no-one else will ever own outside the label. High-quality biscuits guaranteed and cake almost a certainty.

my review:

the album that paul really had to make, in many ways a great digest of the first 20 or so beat tapes, a perfect introduction to his music. In terms of the feel its's similar to the ones you'll know from the radio or online shows, lots of bang and smack to them. it's more of a hip hop release than it could have been (many of paul's songs are very droney or just full on psychedelia) but the hour long selection gets the balance right, there's never a dull moment or a crap beat, they're all strong. i'd say for fans of the "beats" music, beardy prog wizards or uk hip hop cognescenti, this will probably be the soundtrack to your summer. it already feels classic to me and i've had it for a week now. it's difficult trying to explain paul's music to those not in the "cult" who've been living with it for the last few years, it's just one of those things in life a very special thing for those it clicks with. and once that click has happened you can't really imagine life without it.

anyone trying to buy the download + CD:

you need to pay £11 for the 320vbr download and the CD will go to the address in your PayPal ... isn't very clear in Bandcamp but Alex at One Handed just expained the process

It's really fucking good. Hardly ever do I like something as much as this on the first listening. Enchanting stuff. Highly recommend people to buy this.
