| Does anyone know anything about a new BT record that is supposed to be out at the end of the year? The only thing I heard was a rumor that he will be working with the Roots on at least one track. Weird huh? |

Here's what BT had to say about his upcoming fourth artist album (taken from an interview at MTV.com):
"This is a very emotional album," BT said Sunday backstage at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. "I'm singing a lot on this album. The collaborations are with people I really care about, like Peter Gabriel and the Roots and Guru from Gang Starr. It's a really special record.
"The tunes are just really emotional, like on the tip of 'Satellite' from the last album," BT said. "They're sort of Sigur Rós, Radioheady type electronic-rock music. And the stuff that is more breakbeat-oriented, that stuff is particularly aggro. It's hard to describe, ... but it's starting to make sense as an album."
As for collaborations, BT said he lost the Sarah McLachlan track in the burglary and may not have a chance to re-record it. "Tao of the Machine," his song with the Roots, appeared on the "Blade 2" soundtrack earlier this year (see "Eve, Ice Cube, Redman Go Electronic For 'Blade 2' ") and will also show up on BT's album remixed and longer. And along with Guru, dance music luminaries Sasha and Paul van Dyk will make guest appearances, pleasing BT's longtime trance fans and retaining a bit of his signature sound.
"Stylistically, in terms of beats and things, even on the rock songs, I've been taking the aesthetic of proper techno stuff that I like, Autechre and Richie Hawtin, the really clippy-style computer-type beats, and mixing it with stuff like the hip-hop and R&B I listen to, like Timbaland."
"Our Loving Silence," the collaboration with Gabriel, features BT playing seven-string bass over "mental beats." "They sound like a typewriter with epilepsy," BT said. "It's kind of like world music meets Autechre, with Peter singing over the top of it."
I also remember reading an interview where he said that he sings in about 7 tracks on this album... a bit scary I must admit... |

I know, it's expensive (cost me $26 USD) but the packaging is awesome but probably not worth £22.
As for his next album, it sounds like it will be great. BT is really innovative and he's doing stuff no one else is. You might think the whole techno, rock, and electronica mix won't be good but BT will do it in a way that it is.
He's not that bad of a singer...'satellite' and 'shame' aren't that bad. |

just don't complain when you hear Brian's new LP and realize that "it's not trance", 'cos he has warned us ;)
i know i'll love it, maybe more than Airdrawndagger, 'cos electronic + rock has always been my thing. great to see that Brian has got his mojo back since the burglary too, and managed to whip up something promising :D sake, i might top myself if my studio and work gets robbed. |

| I totally agree, I'd probably go pretty friggin crazy if my studio got jacked too. That takes a lot of heart for him to simply start writing new material. I think the new record is gonna be sick. Not only does he have the Roots on it but I just read an interview where he said he has Peter Gabriel, ROse McGowan and Guru from Gangstarr on it as well. |
