yeah the br set is just excellent.
― shit tie (Jordan), Thursday, 2 May 2013 13:07 (eleven years ago) link
so fucking good, the whole thing. but i especially love the 32:00-41:00 portion.
really fascinating to watch him work-- no headphones!

The set I saw in December was the best by any act since, well, Jaar's Pitchfork appearance.
― A deeper shade of lol (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 2 May 2013 13:14 (eleven years ago) link
well it's all done on the laptop, so he doesn't really have to worry about mixing/beatmatching, right?
i did like how he was playing electric piano using his laptop (qwerty) keyboard near the end.
― shit tie (Jordan), Thursday, 2 May 2013 13:31 (eleven years ago) link
last year at mutek it was a nice double feature of him playing his own material live w/band and the next day him djing in the park in the sunshine

I know it's the middle-aged indie rocker in me speaking but i would like this guy to gather all his bits and pieces in an album. I liked 'Space...' ok but what he's released since has been something else. or basically, I need "And I say" on CD
― licorice oratorio (baaderonixx), Thursday, 2 May 2013 14:42 (eleven years ago) link
feel like his work would best be featured as feature length doc film with extended live performance segments tbh

sorry, no more recorded performances, you just have to go dance in a sunny park

This Boiler Room mix is so incredible...and that 32:00 - 41:00 portion is unreal.
I liked 'Space...' ok but what he's released since has been something else. or basically, I need "And I say" on CD
Just out of curiosity, what has he released since "Space..." aside from the Record Store Day Grizzly Bear/Brian Eno thing?

He's doing a set with the Joshua Light Show at the Barbican in October.

some nice bits on the RAM remix thing. The Beyond remix is cool.

― Plasmon, Friday, 20 September 2013 00:18 (eleven years ago) link
i'm sure i'll get over it but guitar sounds kindof lame in a dance context... sounds like some frusciante shit or something
― flopson, Monday, 23 September 2013 04:12 (eleven years ago) link
I was going to say Knopfler.

This Darkside album is fucking lush.
― they all are afflicted with a sickness of existence (Scik Mouthy), Tuesday, 8 October 2013 17:56 (ten years ago) link
I like it. It's weird.
― Immediate Follower (NA), Tuesday, 8 October 2013 18:25 (ten years ago) link
i like the dubby, palm-muted guitar parts and the vibe, but ugh at some of those blues lead licks.
― festival culture (Jordan), Tuesday, 8 October 2013 18:55 (ten years ago) link
I can just about let the blues bits pass. Just about.
― they all are afflicted with a sickness of existence (Scik Mouthy), Wednesday, 9 October 2013 06:05 (ten years ago) link
Darkside beats the hell out of Jaar's solo LP.
― brotherlovesdub, Wednesday, 9 October 2013 06:34 (ten years ago) link
this is awful
― My god. Pure ideology. (ey), Wednesday, 9 October 2013 09:32 (ten years ago) link
i love it, i don't think it sounds that weird or removed from jaar's solo work though. his sonic palette is so wide already that the addition of a guitar doesn't feel remarkable (but still great)
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 9 October 2013 09:36 (ten years ago) link
Do wish people would stop talking about this as if it's a Jaar album with is mate Dave playing guitar over the top. The credits make it pretty explicit that this is a collaboration; Harrington brings a lot more to the table than just some blues licks.
― they all are afflicted with a sickness of existence (Scik Mouthy), Friday, 11 October 2013 07:53 (ten years ago) link
i was pretty underwhelmed on first listen but i had to take a few hours of officework home the other night, so i opened a few beers and put this album on repeat and by the 3rd play i was sold.

yeah... some p shitty blues licks
― flopson, Friday, 11 October 2013 16:11 (ten years ago) link
this album is like stoned shirtless guy at a party with acoustic guitar playing along to minimal techno
― flopson, Friday, 11 October 2013 16:13 (ten years ago) link
can't blame this dave dude though, if nico asked me to bluesfart all over his album & then join him on a decked out world tour i'd say yes
― flopson, Friday, 11 October 2013 16:15 (ten years ago) link
at some points i could almost swear that they had turned the guitar down in the mix to a just-ever-soslightly above audible level
― flopson, Friday, 11 October 2013 16:17 (ten years ago) link
the guitar isnt that bad!! its not too different from like AM01 or something.
― ᶓ͠סּᴥ͠סּᶔ ᶓͼ᷆ₓͼ᷇ᶔ (gr8080), Friday, 11 October 2013 16:19 (ten years ago) link
Pretty sure there are guitars on the Jaar album anyway.
― Matt DC, Friday, 11 October 2013 16:20 (ten years ago) link
and he always played with a live band (of which harrington was part) anyway
