Search And Destroy: Warp Records

sometimes i assume all the tracks w sampled breaks (like “chase the manhattan”, “raxmus”) or aggressive arpeggios (“utopian dream”, “chesh”) are downie (since that was his style on “mongol hordes” and “carcares et novum”)

similarly i assign the stuff with weird spiraling latin melodies with pinging mallet sound fx (like “barbola work” and “frisbee skip”) to plaid.

maybe an overly simplistic schema

tBD dude is awful. incredible they were ever able to work together at all. the pre-warp 12"s are some of my favourite recors of the era and i always assume the tracks i love were made by the other two.

i think i like “spanners” best though!

few arguments to be made against an album that has Chesh on it

I took the kids roller skating today and there was a 10 year old there with a WARP Records hat on. what the fuck

i find strange comfort in still receiving warpbot updates
