Good album this! But for someone trying to flog a slab that shows the artwork, I think staring at his bright yellow nothingness would, if nothing else, diminish the listening experience
This is decent! Whoād have thunk it?
(not me, I would not have thunk about Tom Vek releasing a good new album in 2020)
Ooh, new Vek. Did not expect that.
Re: the big iPod:
Me too, but look at how the software actually runs in the video. Looks very jerky and slow which would be hugely annoying. Stuff like this is really two things: a nice physical thing and nice software. Iām not convinced on the latter, and at this price thatās crazy.
I can see the appeal of the artwork side of it, but it feels like thatās an app or some software they could sell to Spotify/tidal etc, rather than a Ā£500 piece of hardware
Yeah, a tablet in particular could totally allow a booklet format by splitting the screen into 2
Letās forget the music player for a mo, this albums is really good, got really good low key grooves throughout
Can I have the Ā£530 instead? please
Yeah I can get some really nice headphones or decent powered speakers for that and actually enhance my music listening experience
Youāre the worst lottery winner ever
Iām confident youll take the title
I know heās not a huge name, and I know they prefer clickbait horseshit these days, but a bit weird that neither Pitchfork/Stereogum have mentioned this new album at all from what I can tell
I thought a song sound very Tom Vek the other day canāt remember what it was now
Looking forward to listenibg to this
I dont think heās ever really had much of a US or even international presence
Really enjoying this album. Not hitting the highs of the first three, heās not exploring as many ideas across the songs as he usually would, but still a very solid and complete listen. Love those drum sounds too.
- Leizure Seizure
- We Have Sound
- Luck
- New Symbols
Heās releasing a track a week for next 7 weeks across all platforms, including collectible NFTs and - I know, I know - I think his thoughts about experimenting with web3 are worth reading in this thread https://twitter.com/tom_vek/status/1538898616793825282?s=21&t=hwa0uvpev_Ugnjmp5juong
Love him but canāt stand his endless web3 guff on Twitter
