I like it a lot! It was the first thing I dl'ed when our power came back on. I'm going to give it a couple more listens before I list favorites.

I think it's great the way that we've all landed on this weirdness/drones/acoustic/synth noises vibe.

<3 <3 <3 the drones, the wobbly oscillations, the guitar distortion, the fake-out "earnest" acoustic ballads that are really funny

Damn! Absolutely typical that this came out when I was in Cornwall with minimal interweb. (no internet receipt down tinmines.) Downloading now, and can't wait to hear it! Sounds like it's a barrel of weird. In the best possible way.

Only getting around to listening to this now. Marvellous outro on Ken C's track!
― Radio XL1 (S-), Tuesday, 3 May 2011 19:22 (thirteen years ago) link
Everything is great, esp. the Tregaskin/Grannykvlt twofer. But WOW the Way to Happiness!

Bumpin' this beautiful barrel of weird!
The opener is hauntologically unsettling. I love The Gospel of Ken C (the organ wins it, mahn!). Karen D's 'Mining Song' made me think of Dirty Projectors (hope that's no insult to you, I for one love it). Snoball's is so much fun to listen to (*toot toot*), Edward III's <3 <3 <3 lovely Miami-vibe, love the piano too. Bernard Snowy's naked and ace rendition would make me a believer, Get Bent & Crüt's darkness is great, as is Mark G's slow jam. I love it all, basically.
This has just turned out a fantastic record, y'all!

i didn't know there was an actual video! this has brightened/ruined my day! is he wearing pink socks?
― hell don rubbish (get bent), Thursday, 5 May 2011 18:41 (thirteen years ago) link
Oh wow, didn't know it was a sample! Very nice!
I sampled/cut up a smash number one hit from 1999 for my strings at the middle/end of the song. Lifelong kudos if you guess which song!
