Rolling Stone interview which I actually enjoyed quite a bit. I know nothing about him, haven't really read or watched older interviews.

Just looked at the limited edition pics. One of interviews posted here said there would be a bonus track ink-printed on cardstock.

Really looking forward to the release.

Ehhh... a very minor resemblance. There's so much shit going on in Minipops it's likely to be coincidental. Although I must say I don't really like it, it sound pretty dated IDM fare.

Another interview. I'm actually really digging these interviews with him.

My favorite quote was def:

quote:

"I wanted to do gigs where you've just got mirrors on the stage, and then you light the crowd so all they can see is themselves. It's just like, 'There you go, it's you, you cunts.'"

garbage

I love how after over 10 years of rare, overly short, cryptic interviews he just goes out and does like 5-6 super indepth interviews talking about his life, divorce, kids and all kinds of shit you never expected him to talk about. I guess that's his style though, does things when you don't expect them and either barely at all or full on.

Cheesy IDM garbage, indeed. Not a single decent track.

If you want to hear what good IDM actually sounds like, listen to something like MDK ‎– A Friend Is A Stranger You Haven't Met Yet. Relatively unheard-of, completely blows this nonsense out of the water.

Relatively unknown indeed, this person?



Sounds like a rejected cut from the Matrix Reloaded soundtrack tbh~

If you say so, but have you heard the other 23 tracks? I'm guessing you haven't.

5/5 on RA
