New song: https://soundcloud.com/disclosuremusic/bang-that
Not a new single nor necessarily from the new album as they seemed to say on R1, but I love this, didn't expect something like this, expected something more poppy like Latch Part 2 or whatever

rly dope song though

You know what, I like "Omen".

at first spin i thought it was weak and sounded like they had pressed a button on an automatic disclosure/sam smith single machine. then i played it 6 times in a row on my commute home and it has stuck. absolutely bothers me that i am enjoying anything related to sam smith - find him so boring and virginal. jimmy napes is his saving grace.

yeah this is good -- sounds like "defeated no more"

Another new track, I like this one a lot as well

The best so far (and Latch-ier than the Sam Smith one). Can't stop playing it.

all the new stuff feels super stale. zeitgeist done changed, not strikingly so but as prior paragon princes it's enough to scuttle them
― r|t|c, Friday, 14 August 2015 08:15 (eight years ago) link
bashmore's mix of 'holding on' is dope tho - m/l shows the path not taken, splitting the difference between 'bang that' outlier venting and the dead ballad template

i'd suggest to investors that it could be a good time to wheel it back to 06/07 and buy up stocks in karizma as ppl get bored of regular ouse rhythms and kaytranda/soulection type herbdom grows on the low

Writing sell side broker analyst reports about dance music trends is basically my fantasy career.

I haven't been feeling any of the new tracks tbh. "Omen" sounded like a good idea, but possibly I'm just so tired of hearing Sam Smith's voice at this point that I can't even take it in a Disclosure context anymore. I dunno, hoping it all ends up sounding better to me when I hear the full album.

I'm not very zeitgeisty but I am also finding it difficult to get excited about any of these new Disclosure songs, though I do like the latest a bit more than the previous two.

hehe funnily enough iirc what first ever gave me the impetus was actually martin clark on dissens once saying it's certainly not what music appreciation should be like and me thinking yep love it keeping that
― r|t|c, Saturday, 15 August 2015 09:54 (eight years ago) link
That just makes me endorse it all the more.
― Tim F, Saturday, 15 August 2015 10:08 (eight years ago) link
It, like, ALL sounds like "Latch."
― Norse Jung (Eric H.), Friday, 25 September 2015 18:33 (eight years ago) link
So "Bang That" isn't on the album? That's the only new track I like!

I liked the new album a lot better when I realized they were fans of Kerri Chandler tbh.

Weird that this is one of only two references to soulection on ilx

seems target played a henry wu track on his 1xtra show this week, remarkably ('midtour' him at his most nu-bruk)
meanwhile annie mac's two hottest records of the week in a row recently were black coffee 'we dance again' and champion x four tet 'flipside' (vintage funky relick, see also the ace new katy b). that mele 'ambience' has probably got something to do with it too

the first half of the new record is really good, early 00s basement jaxx vibes
― ufo, Monday, 31 August 2020 07:13 (three years ago) link
It's pretty banging. "Ecstasy" probably better than anything on the album proper though.

i was just thinking about these guys yesterday, randomly. i still get annoyed when i remember how they slagged off shanks & bigfoot.

definitely a few jams on this

someone should have told me about "My High", this is my shit
― shout-out to his family (DJP), Tuesday, 8 September 2020 18:50 (three years ago) link
btw “Ecstasy” is on the deluxe version of the album

posted this in another thread but the mj cole remix of "birthday" is so sublime
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 8 September 2020 19:33 (three years ago) link
very good album. growing on me for sure. i wish more EDM in 2020 sounded like this.
― billstevejim, Friday, 30 October 2020 16:24 (three years ago) link
"My High" rules pretty hard
― billstevejim, Friday, 30 October 2020 16:25 (three years ago) link
Ces n'est pas for me. That song rips and exhibits production and arrangement perfection.
― octobeard, Friday, 30 October 2020 16:27 (three years ago) link
i really like this as a whole for sure. it'll probably place in my 10 or 15 for the year. idk why but a lot of if reminds me of post-blackout britney spears.
― billstevejim, Monday, 9 November 2020 19:47 (three years ago) link
i feel like if any random "pop artist with stans" had released this exact album it would probably have its own thread by now.
― billstevejim, Monday, 9 November 2020 19:50 (three years ago) link
it's pretty good and they have good instincts on how to pair their guests and beats. Birthday is prob my fave track.
― Four Seasons Total Manscaping (forksclovetofu), Monday, 9 November 2020 20:50 (three years ago) link
love this one
