New Burial - Ego
Re: New Burial - Ego
I was pretty hyped when I read today about "Ego" - to be honest I was trying to buy/ship this not even listening a bit...
... and I'm glad I didn't.
Here's my question: Is Burial nowadays somekind of marketing "catch/trick" ?
Every time I listen to his collab-tunes I don't hear any kind of Burial at all... First Prophecy with El-b atmosphere now Ego with Four-tet beat-style.
I'm kinda dissapointed sir.
Still fingers crossed for new album this year (please!) - and I really hope it's not going to be housey stuff (Loefah keep your dirty fingers away from this guy! haha
).
I really miss "old" Burial thing.
"Mirror" - listening to it right now - yup, much better than Ego IMO. Still garage'y/EL'b as fuck
Maybe I'm expecting too much from guy, I know he's an artist/human (?)
and he can do whatever he wants... but anyway after 2 really moody,dark LP's new house-vibe stuff would be...hmm...let's call it weird?
cheers.

Re: New Burial - Ego
Really like them both. Ego, while perhaps not the Burial we know, is still dark and atmospheric as fuck, just with a more Four Tet type beat - but what's wrong with that?

Re: New Burial - Ego
Both sides sound great. Hasn't disappointed imo.
Re: New Burial - Ego
why is mirror sounding much more burial than ego? confusing. big love to the guys for the wonderful music.
Re: New Burial - Ego
I’m sure Four Tet did the drums on Ego… its just.. I just seems like it. Burial probably played synths over it.gantzgraf wrote:why is mirror sounding much more burial than ego? confusing. big love to the guys for the wonderful music.
Re: New Burial - Ego
Mirror is definitely the one, great tune. I reckon both Burial and Four Tet did songs with Thom Yorke then went back and forth changing them, there is very subtle Burial-like elements in Ego but you know in mere seconds that Mirror is pretty much entirely Burial's work. Impressed, but I don't think I am listening to them in the right context - an excited college student who should be sleeping but stayed up to hear these tracks.

Re: New Burial - Ego
This is quite an EPIC record.
The new Radiohead has come as a surprise!
It's really awesome, kinda reminds me of Joy Division's "Closer"
