Untrue

Product Information

With home made chopped up beats, swooshing synths, and haunting modified vocals lifted from an eclectic range of pop songs, he brings his listeners back to a time when hardcore, d'n'b, 2step, and house music dominated the London underground club/rave scene. Releasing records under the pseudonym "Burial," William Bevan comes from South London in England, and is one of dubstep's most enigmatic artists. I'm sure this album won't appeal to the older generation due to its electronic and club-like nature, but in my opinion with true music like this, the genre is totally irrelevant. In the resulting no man’s land , lyrics take precedence over song, lonely phrases colour the haze, a stark and fragmented structure makes time slow down. This album is so simplistic and minimal, yet manages to convey so much emotion, and that’s not to mention the genius samples used in every tune.

Kode9's most ambitious work yet as a multi-disciplinary artist, ‘Escapology’ is the soundtrack album to the sonic fiction ‘Astro - Darien’, itself soon to be released on Hyperdub sub-label Flatlines.

In fact, so reluctant is he to engage with the cult-of-personality hoopla that surrounds almost every modern producer and musician of merit, that he remains a genuine recluse; he has never appeared live, only one obliquely-angled publicity photograph is known to exist, and the number of interviews he has given can be counted on the fingers of one hand.Soshi Hosoi - Mister Diviner [the Mahjong Touhaiden] Kode9 Remix / Koichi Ishibashi - Bad Data [dezaemon] Kode9 Remix / Yuzo Koshiro - Temple [actraiser] Kode9 Remix / Tadahiro Nitta - An-Un (Ominous .

Kicking off with the skittering 2step syncopations and vocal science of 'Archangel', 'Near Dark' and 'Ghost Hardware', before long it descends into a space of radiant divas and ambience. Yet despite this, his music speaks loud and wide, and the world has been listening ever since his 'South London Boroughs' EP debut on Hyperdub in March 2005. Even if you have this on other formats in your collection, the dusty weight and chasmic crackles sound so much better on vinyl.

Burial’s debut album on double vinyl – including unique download code, black inner sleeves and 180g vinyl in a thick card sleeve. Elements of 2 step, UK Garage, Ambient and Dubstep used in self-titled were retained in Untrue, but obviously were experimented, juxtaposed with complimentary vocals, airy cum atmospheric vibes and burial styled drums, which gave a distinct and peculiar sound to Untrue. Hope someone out there will realize it, go behind and make availabe on vinyl those short pieces and some other lost tunes like Fostercare!step garage rhythms are drenched with glowing, ethereal synths and vinyl crackle, and where vocals appear, they're heavily treated, chopped-up and pitch-shifted, until they sound like the coos and croons of a particularly soulful angel.

By the time Burial's second album surfaced, his reputation had grown to underground stardom, even if his identity was still a secret.

e. the original recording lacks the necessary detail to be processed digitally and show an audible improvement. Perhaps this is the album DJ Shadow should have made instead of the Outsider to keep fans of Endtroducing on side.Topping off Hyperdub's 15th year, Burial selects 'tunes'from the last eight years of his EP releases on the label, for this very welcome two CD collection. Escapology’ reconfigures ‘Astro-Darien's tense, off-world atmospheres into slices of high definition, asymmetric club rhythms, woven through thrilling sound design and vertiginous sonics. Punctured by pitched up, fractured voices lifting the mood to a bruised euphoria, woodblock two-step keeps the rhythmic pulse burning while glistening ambient interludes ache the heart.

A muffled clatter of shutters, hissing neon lights, snatches of conversation and music drifting down from open windows. On top of these often advanced rhythms, she also raps and sings for the first time with lyrics about love, sex, glamour and struggle, universal fantasies, treated with an ambiguity that restructures the narrative within a trans-identity. Vocal lines are blurred, smeared, pitched up pitched down and pitch bent until their content is cast adrift from their original context and they whisper their saccharin sweet nothings into the void. Records that aren't in picture sleeves will either be in a company sleeve or a generic plain sleeve. This recording generates such a feeling of loss and loneliness that it should be regarded as a must have by anyone interested in ambient or the avant garde genres.
