Anyone else feeling it? It's a fluckin funky beat, for sure. I love it. It would make you dance. Does anyone else know anything about kwaito music?

Hyperdub...always one step ahead.

[kuklee]

Love it...but is it really 3:41 long? and the other tune 2 something?

Tuuuuuune. Kwaito music has been around for years btw.

Yeah, I know what you're saying...it does seem a little short, but it works. I reckon 5 or 6 minutes of it would be overkill. It's kind of a hit and run, big impact tune like "Wind It Up".

Sticking it on a 7" or 10" might have been a nice touch. It would have fitted, but I guess that's just not Hyperdubs style.

So I've been hearing. It's just completely passed my radar though. Do you have any recommendations for that style?

[Chuckledust]

No thanks. I prefer speakers or headphones for music. It's just not the same watching it.

[deamonds]

loving this and the flip, excellent release, top 3 for tunes of the year easy.

other than kode9's five 10" releases...? not hyperdubs current style though perhaps

edit: and king midas sound had a 7" out recently didn't they?

[dj_donga]

massive 12". love it love it love it. format wise i like the extra width for confident manipulation (as the actress said to the bishop)

very true though. i think most of the time it's cheaper to press a proper 12 anyway so a lot of the time it's just for novelty purpose putting things on 10
