I for one welcome Jordan's prior HitlerYouthisms as they got me into this. Hoping the proper album drops in time for me to convince everyone to make it "album of the week" on our "funk" episode of DAA.

Just grabbed the album now. As usual, I am two to three months behind ILM on everything. Perpetually sleeping. Missed seeing him in Montreal back in September at a tiny loft/club. Will smack myself in the head repeatedly for the next day or two.

Is it still possible to track down those original EPs, though? It appears as though the tracks have been significantly shortened on the full-length album. Or am I misreading this information?
― Binkie & The-Dream: One is a Terius, the other's insAY!ne (Alex in Montreal), Friday, 23 October 2009 02:17 (fourteen years ago) link
really? it's being released as a 2CD and a 5LP...
― k3vin k., Friday, 23 October 2009 02:19 (fourteen years ago) link
as far as i know, the "album" is just the 5 EPs...

Look at the track lengths. All I know is that my version of the title track is 2 minutes long and on the original EP it is apparently 5. This is not the only instance of this. Also, there are at least two tracks not on the full-length? Can't figure out which ones.
― Binkie & The-Dream: One is a Terius, the other's insAY!ne (Alex in Montreal), Friday, 23 October 2009 02:21 (fourteen years ago) link
But confused bitching about album/EP inconsistency aside, this is really something else.
(Oh, Tunnels is one of the missing trax)
― Binkie & The-Dream: One is a Terius, the other's insAY!ne (Alex in Montreal), Friday, 23 October 2009 02:23 (fourteen years ago) link
this is weird... kinda interested to hear the songs in that order, seems almost like a totally different album
― everybody loves am0n (J0rdan S.), Friday, 23 October 2009 02:25 (fourteen years ago) link
yeah. anyway. is it worth it tracking down the EPs as well? or should 24 tracks of LP fulfill all my dam-funk needs?
― Binkie & The-Dream: One is a Terius, the other's insAY!ne (Alex in Montreal), Friday, 23 October 2009 02:28 (fourteen years ago) link
once i get the fifth EP i think i'm gonna make a playlist with the songs in that order
also i think it goes without saying that these are the album covers of the year
― everybody loves am0n (J0rdan S.), Friday, 23 October 2009 02:29 (fourteen years ago) link
you should be aight with that album, if you really want the missing EP tracks send me a fb message and i'll send em back to you
xxp i dunno, i've gotten used to (and fallen in love w/) the songs in the order they are on the EP...plus apparently they'll be the actual full songs?
― k3vin k., Friday, 23 October 2009 02:30 (fourteen years ago) link
kind of curious why he'd edit down some of these...longer versions of tracks in funk are always better, as a general rule.
― Binkie & The-Dream: One is a Terius, the other's insAY!ne (Alex in Montreal), Friday, 23 October 2009 02:30 (fourteen years ago) link
cuz there are only so many minutes of music that can be on a cd?
― everybody loves am0n (J0rdan S.), Friday, 23 October 2009 02:31 (fourteen years ago) link
the track lengths don't look to be that big of a deal tbh - "search 4 funk's future" & "LAtrifying" seem to have been cut down a few minutes but every other track just has a few seconds on at the end and i'm sure that's because he had to mix all the songs into each other differently than on the EP & because of time constraints

i don't listen to much instrumental stones throw type ish but dam-funk is like the first dude where i really feel emotion, or at least identify with the emotion - the long, winding, whiny synth lines are so evocative imo

I dig him for like one track at a time and don't mind his shit coming up on shuffle, but way too samey to listen to for longer than that.

i should probably try listening to the rest of this guy's output but on the one ep i only like one track particularly, although i LOVE that track (hood pass intact).
