I’ve spent a lot of time in the last week listening to Tim Exile’s new album, “Listening Tree”. For the most part, this album is a big departure from the glitchy dnb of Exile’s last album, Pro Agonist. The sound on Listening Tree is rooted in synth pop, but manages to defy the expectations that go along with that on almost every track. Some of the tracks sound like the kind of music you’d hope Depeche Mode would make in 2009. Other tracks remind me a lot of Cursor Miner (and his sense of humor). Everything on the album sounds HUGE.
If you watch the video for “Family Galaxy” above, make sure to switch it to “high quality” mode… its not a track you want to hear mono/8bit/22khz/whatever.
hmm, reblogging because there’s no “I don’t know if I love it or hate it, but can’t stop listening to it” button on tumblr. thanks for bringing to attention, aaron.
