the first time i listened to cymbals ever i thought he sounded like craig owens (this in the lose release period) luckily i don't hear that anymore
I'm not a fan of the strained affectation he puts on throughout most of the album. Some of the songs are cool
It's pretty easy for me to get past imperfect voices, it has to be egregiously bad for a voice to completely turn me off to a band. As far as cymbals goes, he's fine and I never got the complaints people had
Glad that Huerco S album is getting some love too. Bleep had a large electronic/ambient representation on their list
This is great. So much amazing stuff that's gone under the radar bc of the short form release. Braids is especially nice to see. Seems like no one even knows they released anything this year. Plus serpentwithfeet, Vince, Sheer Mag, GLOSS, Charli, Moses Sumney and Majical Cloudz are all fantastic.
They are an electronic music shop after all. Was disappointed with only ten inclusions but I guess that was probably to keep the CD bundle affordable
