Emperor - Into Black EP (CRIT081) [27.04.15]

[Kondition]

SMPL, YES! Bummed about not getting Sax Tune, Interstellar, Static, One Foot, Foxholes, etc etc.

Nonetheless, another solid release by an excellent producer & label.

 

[Solace]

Not one from the EP, but I think this belongs here:
another dubplate from the man himself (with some other banger dubplates)

Forthcoming on his album! He just put out some few bits of his album material, because his last EP release was a long time ago...

I wanted Interstellar pretty bad, a little disappointed TBH

 

[deaneg]

This really needed another plate, would've loved into black on vinyl. So is the album still coming this year or no?

 

[Vydx]

this year or early 2016

SMPL and Tandem are the ones I'm feeling, Into Black is alright as well

 

[Afek_One]

Bummer. Foxholes was the only one I wanted. I wonder what Kasra plans on doing with it.

saving it for emperor's debut lp no doubt

After going through the whole EP, I have to say unfortunately that this is probably the weakest Critical release this year in my opinion. I'm only feeling SMPL and Tandem, the others are just a bit too repetitive / boring for me. Shame cause I found the previews to be promising at first.

 

[Greazy]

Almost doesnt sound like emperor

This is what happens when he starts making his own sounds

If you're talking about the main bass it's a sample

get the pitch slightly higher on these tunes, trust me you will not have the same opinion

 

[dat_skunk]

Hmm not sure how I feel about this. Into Black and Passed Up are bangers for sure but the rest isn't quite doing it for me. And if i'm gonna be completely honest, Mind Games sounds really uninspired, not feeling that one at all. Will have to hold out for the album I suppose

 

[Rasmic123]

having had a full listen to the tunes, i can safely say that Tandem and Mindgames are incredibly shit and annoying

If I have to get the pitch slightly higher to enjoy it, then there's something wrong.

alright you've got me on that one, definitely disagree with this being the worst release so far

yeah, sunday crunk remix was worse. this is 2nd worse critical release this year

 

[Exxcessivve]

And it's still a pretty awesome EP, which means Critical's output is fucking brilliant

I think that Ivy Lab remix of Blame You saved that single to be honest, I really liked that remix. Sunday Crunk was meh.

That's true, always loved Critical. I'm sure there's some amazing releases coming up, I've heard some serious dubs from Sam Binga, Ivy Lab, Hyroglifics, Enei and Foreign Concept that I can't wait for!

really looking forward to that kasra & enei dub, ill link it

 

[Phillasophical]

Bit miffed on Into Black not being pressed on the vinyl, Passed Up and Mind games I can listen to once with an annoyed grimace and never want to hear them again
