oh my ghost

Further to the previous post on Jamie xx's "Gosh" and  In Colour,  can't believe I missed this Leckey-laced slice of hauntological hardcore from last year....



with samples from....

... although many of the raver and MC soundbites come from elsewhere as far as I can tell


Really feel this whole strain of aunterlogikal  ardkore is played out at this point


What does yet another homage to lost madness really bring to the party?


How many years is it since the first Burial album....  since Where Were You In '92.... since those Unknown 12 inches....   well, it's six years since the latter, and subsequently we've had Lee Gamble's Diversions 1994-1996, there was also Four Tet's "Kool FM" and Beautiful Rewind .... and what feels like at least a half-dozen other releases based on a ghosts-of-rave concept  - jungle replicas and hardcore facsimiles galore....

to misquote my wife, from an old record review of hers about something else altogether, it's become "like ghosts we've come to... find a bit boring"



Now this one would be more hauntological - and possibly way more interesting  - if it was done by the Dead Graham Bond
