2562 comes one step closer to making me give up music

For Fever, which he’ll be releasing through his own newly minted When In Doubt label, 2562 has adopted a production approach significantly different to his previous work. According to a press release it’s “a thorough reinterpretation of underground disco music from the mid-seventies to the early eighties, with his own birth year 1979 as the gravitational point.” Every single sound, from the earth-quaking sub-bass on up, is pulled from a disco record – with no additional synthesizers, drum computers or sample sources in the mix.

Wow. WOW. What the fuck? Seriously.

This guy is legendary. Makes me wonder why I even try sometimes. For real though, I can't wait to hear what this album sounds like. Here's two tracks from it:

I know what you mean mate, the guy is unbelievably good...

His percussion arrangements are off the chart. Sick, sick shit. But he must have started as a mere mortal, so I guess there is hope for us all :)

Loving the concept for the new direction, look forward to hearing what he comes up with.

Seriously, how are the rest of us supposed to compete with that? Our only chance is to make an LP entirely out of 2562 samples.

:cornlol:

2562 is badman but I think Pinch and Martyn hit the nail on the head here -- this has nothing to do with disco. It's a technical limitation that he's imposed upon himself, in exactly the same vein as the DSF samplepack competitions. Making cool shit out of samples is just another technical skill. More importantly, as he says, the limitation keeps you focused. I'm looking forward to hearing the album.

Guaranteed you're wrong on this one, anyone who knows me or has heard my tunes knows that, if anything, I tend to get carried away with "wacky ideas," sometimes at the detriment of making marketable music. Anyway, relax, it was a joke :w:

if everyone would go by this no one would ever make any music anymore due to all the classical masterpieces :P
