View Full Version : BURIAL – UNTRUE
BURIAL – UNTRUE
Possibly the most exciting (and definitely the most innovative) producer in electronic music for the last couple of years IMO.
This new album is well worth a listen, needs a bit of effort (all good music does) if you are new to the sound but well worth it. Kind of like a soundtrack to an empty city at night…very ghostly and kind of creepy in a good way but so beautiful. Havnt seen a bad review about it. Its grouped with dubstep, which I guess is fair but the sound also takes in hip hop, rnb and general electronic bizzle….
The first album took me a few listens but now its one of my favorite albums...this one carried on where the last left off…….
Its really weird who this appeals too…people get different things from the music and hear it in different ways…even my mum was feeling it!.....

his whole attitude in the studio touches my fancy
we need more producers who look past the "norm"
That interview is great...nice one!
Yeah Burial is special for sure...definately pushed the limits by experimenting....
Yeh, I love some of his stuff, proper reflection music. Just stick it on, have a lager and aspliff and think about the day gone by
when i listen to his stuff i just end up creating some wicked pieces....very inspirational music!
jsut in case you aint heard the man...

:inlove: Wow! On it now.
Still need to listen to 1st album properly...
Another one to add to the list. Deffo will do tho...
had this a while and wasn't that impressed on first few listens, found some of the soundscapes to be too dreary, leaving me feeling empty...gave a sort of eerie abandoned derelict church in a storm feel
Etched Headplate stood out for me though, along with Homeless...
will give it some more listens though when the mood strikes me, see if it grows on me more.
Awesome! But it does send me to sleep when I'm driving home from work in the dark.
Ive been reading the way reviewers and journalisst have triedt= to capturethe burial sound in words..this is my favourite so far:
http://www.villagevoice.com/music/0747,asdfsadf,78402,22.html
"Like 2step left out in the rain to warp and pockmark, it's a post-rave sound in both macro and micro context, the faded textures of "Archangel" soaked in dreamlike nostalgia for the culture's past while perfectly capturing the end of last night's party—the room deserted, the ghost of good times hanging misty in the air."
amazing album
definitely going to be very groundbreaking in the many genres the music covers.
when i first listened to it, and that almost tribal drumbeat comes on in archangel and then the vocals come in, i was stunned. it's just different to everything ive listened to before.
the mystery about his character and life just adds more intrigue and emotion into his music i reckon.

also if anyone has 'Stairwell and wants to PM it to me i would have your babies
You can get the album for pennies over at Beatport.com
Truth be told, I've been listening to quite a lot of dubstep recently.
Dubstep is really the new jungle, when you listen to a dubstep track, you really don't know what is going to happen, as compared to a modern dnb track - which is fairly predictable even if you've never heard it before. Dubstep producers don't have any hard and fast rules limiting them and they don't really know what they're doing production wise - exactly the same as dnb producers back in the day. Pretty cool.
But that said - dubstep is jungle without an amen or other infectious break and the bpm-limited beats are not going to make me declare "I'm a fucking junglist" or make my babymamma dance her ass off for the first time she heard a >160 bpm moment at the moment I decided she was gonna to be mine .

I've hated dubstep abnd everything to do with it since it (along with students in Kanye glasses) took over DnB clubs up and down the country……..however, just recently I am pressed to find any new drum and bass that makes me excited………..been listening to other music for over a year now and decide to give Burial album a go…….i was totally shocked to hear an album that was more on a garage vibe to the constant wobble and banging of pipes lots of dubstep seems to be. There seems to be a battle for who can produce the filthiest dubstep atm,. However………..Untrue is just unbelievable!!! Can anyone recommend any dubstep tunes on the same par? Something that isn’t just wobble all the way through………
Can't find the thread, but there is one that someone made with a huge list of artists with that style.
Try Burial's self titled debut.
And search for other stuff on youtube. He has a few remixes too that aren't on albums. The Wayfaring Stranger remix is raw.

This isn't the thread, and I can't see youtube vids in work, but from what I remember there's some of those type tunes in here.

Cheers Brof...... no Youtube at work for me either......will get on it tonight tho'
Off the top of my head, his remixes are...
Wayfaring Stranger
Where is home
a bloc party remix
He also has two tunes (i think) with Four Tet. Moth and Wolf Club. Don't hold me to those names though.

That was the case when dubstep started from garage, but not anymore.
When you think of dubstep now you think of angry 13 year olds, a boring and shit kick-snare (with massive reverb) basic pattern with no variation, and a shitload of wobble.

Would have thought this is the thread you're talking about?

Yeah mate, I agree. But I wrote my comment 2 years ago :) Most dubstep = the very worst modern jump up crap without the redeeming 175 beat,
