Though judging by this pic there has been quite a bit of photoshopping done for the cover.

I noticed that ~scape has released remix album of Steingarten. I'm tempted to buy it, but I don't know that much about the remixers. Has anyone heard this, is it good?

I'm a bit disappointed there's no Burnt Friedman remix on this. His remixes of Pole tunes on R were superb.

yeah, it's very good - all solid at least, some great - mr sherburne has a positive remix in a new wire, i think

one year passes...

It recently dawned on me just how many times I have listened to 'Loop-Finding-Jazz-Records'. And with the exception of Pole 1/2/3 and the Staedtizism comps I hardly own anything else on ~Scape.

So POX ~Scape Records anyone? I'd really welcome any recommendations you might have.

Oh, also, some of you might be interested in the Boomkat 14tracks.com compilation of Jelinek productions: http://tinyurl.com/krksnf

I've never actually listened to this guys records, but I had the pleasure of hearing Pole on the Fabric Room 1 system earlier in the year, and it was one of the most sublime live shows I've ever heard.

The album is out, anyone heard it yet? I didn't know about this new material until someone mentioned it in the other thread, so I'm still waiting for my copy to arrive in the mail. IMO Steingarten was nice return to form after the (fairly bland) hip-hop experiments etc, so my hopes for this one are high. (Or at least higher than they were for Steingarten, which was surprisingly good.)

it covers some of the Waldgeschichten material (series of brief eps from late 2000s/2010s).. same sound, though there are several new tracks and it plays as a 'live' set, with tracks transitioning into one another. the production (sound) is brilliant, really clean, upfront, and dry/crisp. the subtle percussive, buzzing, clicking elements are really distinct (not so subtle), and the melodic elements are strong. it's beautiful stuff.

ha i was just the other day wondering when/if he would put another album out. interested to hear this, The Waldgeschichten stuff I heard was very nice. enjoyed Steingarten quite a bit, never heard the hip-hop stuff because it seemed to have gotten unanimously negative reviews..

The new Evan Caminiti record is pushing some ~Scape buttons for me: https://dust-editions.bandcamp.com/album/varispeed-hydra

I'm liking Fading based on some Bandcamp previewing.

i did dig out steingarten remixed a few weeks ago and i really enjoyed it! i can't find my copy of steingarten but i think that's probably my current favorite betke production
