[skunktech]

I have heard truant in full and it's totally amazing!

[Phigure]

[Swamo]

Speaking of Burial bleeps, why does he keep reusing the damn bleeps from Distant Lights? It's honestly getting annoying.

PLEASE LET IT BE FERAL WITCHCHILD

Feral Witchchild won't be getting a release anymore. It was already supposed to come out on Untrue and on the single for the album along with Stairwell but both got cancelled.

Let's face it. One day, *everything* Burial ever did will get released, as long as he doesn't delete everything (please, *don't*!). I don't know why, I don't get it, I don't understand it exactly, but there's no one else who does it for me. I've heard all the imitations and influences - it was a passion, to find anything approximating Burial, to get my fix, but in the end, no one else comes close. He has *it*. Whatever *it* *is*.

Can't wait...

The sample from the beginning of the new Burial tracks (Traunt/Rough Sleeper) is an excerpt from Operation “Wandering Soul,” an initiative that the United States implemented against the North Vietnamese during combat that took great advantage of psychological warfare. Haunting is the best word to describe the recording. There’s no question why Burial chose to feature it prominently in his music; the new tracks seem to be giving a voice to these wandering souls lost in the fog of war.

read this on someone's tumblr. interesting.

"One of the more interesting superstitions of Vietnam is the belief in the wandering soul. It is the Vietnamese belief that the dead must be buried in their homeland, or their soul will wander aimlessly in pain and suffering. Vietnamese feel that if a person is improperly buried, then their soul wanders constantly."...

would be cool if it was true, but i think im going to call bullshit

here's what they used:


doesnt sound at all like anything in either tune

edit: wait, perhaps the first couple seconds of rough sleeper. but i still doubt it since i cant find any audio of operation wandering soul on the internet that isnt complete shit like that youtube video

[ivan]

man those bleeps at 6:30 in truant are the one

sounds like hits sampled from somewhere in "black secret technology"

but yeah.. tunes are ruff, havent heard bass like that since dillinja

bigup burial each and every, the new muddier sound compliments his shit very well.. assume it's produced similarly to the MA collabo

Truant melody = ripped from Slowdive. Burial uncovered.

That spoken word thing is a kode9 piece, not burial. I heard it in his sound installation in new york last year. http://audint.net/

He also talks about it in his book.

which song?

[polho]

First listen of Truant right now. restrained. sick. rude.

edit:

Love the demosceney part towards the end of Rough Sleeper.

edit2: love the Enya part too, love the cowbells. thankful.

edit3: got to mention the way the flapping hi-hats do that little offbeat roll in Truant @ 05:13, right after the pause in the beat.
