Sorry if the title of this seems confrontational, and sorry if you are into this album, but it is a genuine question and not just a random dig at 2562.

I am heavily into dubstep and think Burial, Skream, Benga, Ital Tek etc are wicked, but I just don't get this 2562 album. I am also a music producer myself (although I don't make dubstep).

So my question is: is it something I'm not getting, or is it actually pants? In particular, the first track on the album has this synth sound that really doesn't seem to work at all, like it is actually badly queued in or something. What I don't get is, if I am right, how did it ever get to be a commercially released album??

Am I wrong?

Yes, release of the year IMO. See the appreciation thread for others feeling the vibes.

yes its just you.

Nope. Wicked album, really crisp production imo

One of this years best albums imo

Hm, I certainly dont think its rubbish, but I dont think its overly amazing. Its a good album nonetheless but I do feel some people hype it up too much tbh.

It's all you.
This album is great to listen to and loads of fun to work into the mix.

Best album ive heard in ages, as a whole its dope from end to end.

i really enjoyed it tbh...

big up 2562...

do you like french house as well? im sorry, i just don't see the point in making a thread like this. its pretty damn obvious why you don't like this, you are liking the more banging dubstep and can't adjust to the more experimental stuff.

i don't even know if i can help you with this problem.

its different approach from the general dancefloor tune style imo...

beautifully made and loads of fun to mix with... perfect for nice long blended mixes...

allow making generalisations, the guy doesn't like it.

i fully expected to see one of those replies along the lines of "dude- if you don't understand this album then you clearly don't like music and can't be my friend". where is it?

this thread is rubbish.

Shreddyde - Other than dubstep the main types of music I am into are ambient, electronica, experimental, noise etc - so I can definitely adjust to experimental stuff.

Anyway, question answered - it's me! Maybe it's a grower, I will definitely give it some more time based on all these comments. Thanks everyone. Perhaps I'll get st0ned and listen to it, that's usually a pertty good decider!

just dont think it sto ur taste bruv...wasnt to mine either....i just cant find part i like in his tracks, apart from techno dread......only listened once...


suppose u have to be in right mood, and give it a few goes like

great thread

I really like it and as an album i think it makes better listening than most dubstep albums. Prefer the Pinch and Burial albums though.

more of a cd album then a vinyl album in my opinion.

great to listen to but not so much to play out

Don't know about that, its wicked fun to keymix with
