Post by: des on April 23, 2002, 03:38:56 PM
take the tracks that has surfaced from howlett after FOTL

No Man Army
Ghost Town
Howletts remix of the chems remix of voodoo people
trigger
bgat

no give them a good listen, one after the other, is it just me or do the beats have a real polished feel, very clean, nothing raw about them

their all very similar in sound.

There are more tracks. You forgot for instance the jam track which was given the fan title 'We Do What The Fuck We Want'. I don't think they sound that 'polished' as you call it, but maybe I don't understand you ;)

No man army is the only track being properly recorded, or?
The other ones are just live-tracks, so they never really got mastered like the ones on FOTL.
Maybe that's the reason, but anyway, I think it's hard to tell how polished a tracks is when you have to deal with a noisy live-recording.
I find BGAT might be more clean in a certain way, but it's quite smacky, the snare has a good impact and it looks like Liam really uses his Electribe R and not only talks about it in (Korg) interviews, the BD sounds a bit like it, I'm not exactly sure though. I believe it will be very dirty and edgy even if the beat might seem more precise.

I find the beats on MFTJG were the dirtiest shite to be around ever. Quite funny, because Liam did things on the record which normally are a little bit proscribed if you wanna have some in your face beats, but that only proves you better do your own thing
