linwood Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 I really dig this cd. BT has such an understanding of time/space. When he sees an 1/8 note he must see 24000 ticks or something...more than us mere mortals. I would love to watch him work sometime. I'd also love to see him and say...Mark Isham do a project together. Have they? Seems like a cool match. http://thisbinaryuniverse.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Davis Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 I totally agree -- so quantized, and yet so dimensional and soulful... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundscape Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Hmm, interesting. What happened to the trancey (in the 'dance music' sense) stuff from BT though? http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?playlistId=3822297&i=3822287 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoahZark Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 I noticed that BT and Thomas Dolby are touring together, including a stop in my neck of the woods at The Birchmere in northern Virginia on December 22nd. Has anyone caught the tour? Are these two artists who would be good to see live? (I picture this concert being more akin to watching two DJs than seeing live music performed, but that may be my own biases at play.) Thoughts, anyone?

Stephen Fortner Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 He's still making it - he told me he has a new dance-oriented album coming out soon. But TBU is a record he'd always wanted to make, and I'm thrilled to see someone with the kind of mainstream weight he has do something this experimental.

Botch. Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 I have everything BT has put out, but I'm having trouble listening to this one. I even timed a track with a stopwatch, to make sure my CD player wasn't skipping. I guess I don't have quite the rhythmic ear to follow this one. I'm still giving it some time, though; I didn't understand Beauty and the Beast the first couple of spins, either.

steadyb Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 He was recently at Remix Hotel L.A. and spoke for about 2 hours on his work process and answered plenty of questions. Very accommodating to the audience. I'm glad I got to be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triton76 Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 I bought it on the recommendation of the KB mag review. I liked it better when I watched the film clips too. It is interesting, but as a rock and roll guy, I don't expect I'll listen to it again. Jupiter 50; Triton Extreme; Ultranova Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
