good luck finding a quality journalist willing to surrender their questions before an interview!

Most would if they wanted the interview bad enough.

i really don't know about that. at most they might provide an indication of themes they would like to touch on, but in my experience any journalist who provides questions before an interview is the kind who is willing to accept completely PR'd responses.

Yeah but we're talking entertainment interviews here where everything is carefully considered by usually a PR agent to make the star seem as less of a twat as possible. I suppose a star of scubas calibre may not have a PR agent but if you don't ask you run the risk of getting edited to sound like a right tnuc

Put it on in the background got into some grafikery and before you know it, it had finished.

Is that the mark of an awesome album or what ?

the album.

sounds like an idm album from 2002.
and i liked alot of scuba tunes from past.

putting on an album in the background and forgetting about doesn't make an album good, it makes it un-memorable.

but hey its scuba, so its going to be pretty deep.
this isn't a spring album either, so maybe when its dark and cold again i will get into it, who knows.

On the contrary. It soaks in and you just feel the good vibes without it intruding into your consciouness like some other music which screams "HEY YOU, WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING WORKING WHEN YOU SHOULD BE LISTENING TO ME "

It means I can go back and listen to it over and hear it for the first time again and again. More than anything it is a spring album, as opposed to a summer winter or autumn one. It hints at a new dawn and a bright optimistic future. I could imagine listening to this while strolling thorugh an orchard in bloom and feeling alive like i want to live forever.

Im kinda over the dark drudgery of some other recent dubstep albums but in saying that they too have their moments just not as many as this one. None of them quite flow like this one either.

Its way more than the sum of it's parts so maybe you just expected too much

thats great man, when you find an album like this that effects you in a positive way it can be one of the best feelings.

it just doesn't hit me like that.

you are right though this album does have a certain flow that shows he was thinking about the tracks and how the flow will work. which i do enjoy a whole lot more than an album of random tracks thrown together.

who knows in a month or a year from know my opinion could be completely reversed

I think it will. I love inoffensive background music you can put on and it doesn't irritate guests or intrude on work or conversation. Thats not to say it's elevator muzak. It means it's got a life in more than one instance. Like i cant put some other albums on and let them run its course without it dominating proceedings. This one i can. Big up the

Sincerely this album is just perfect, the London - Berlin connection is worth the listening here.

Standout tracks from the album, definitely Tell Her, what a beautiful tune with some amazing keys and those last 3 tunes, perfect rhythm, dark and haunting, it flows.

Congrats Paul, amazing work!
