hey, he's workd with britney spears & in-sync

he's got to be good!!

don't forget tori amos....i actually liked that track...super ethereal !

Hey, bt/nsync's track "Pop" was a lot of fun. Vocals were annoying though (so I guess the BT part was the good part )

Sounds like he's really transformed his edits into a more musical sound now, which is good.

Released today, btw.

Thanks for the reminder Rob. I'd forgotten that it was due out.

super enthusiastic about it all. And when I mean, I mean everything. He's such a wonk and obviously super talented. Good for him.

Cheesy? Well, yes we all have our moments, don't we?

rob.

same here. i've had really good experiences with him. i watched him do finishing touches to NSync's "Pop" mix in his house. i thought i knew almost everything about Logic until i watched him tweak that beat-box breakdown in the song. very inspiring, and very sharing of techniques and tips... and yes, very excitable.

and i love the new album!!!!!!!!

Is this an iTunes-only release?...or will their be an actual CD?

He said that the vocals on that track were all micro-comped...she never actually sang any of the words on that track....he pieced the vocals together phoneme by phoneme...incredible!!

that's awesome..he's super talented and seems to do things that totally baffle me...even though his music is not really my thing.

so yeah royalties...i'm sure he's in good w/ tori then to be able to release that

i made a track where i pieced together ofra haza vocals from an a cappella track she did. but of course, it has to stay w/ me...unless i can pleed with her relatives in israel.

heheh

where can i hear samples of this new bt album anyways...i hate itunes music store and their ghetto ass 2 sec. sample trax

I will be buying this the day it comes out...I need some soul music right now, and the title seems most appropriate to me today. My mom passed away 2 days ago and I'm getting married in 3 weeks. Binary universe indeed...

My condolences buddy -- keep ya chin up and remember that your mom would want you to be happy and to honor her legacy.

And early grats on your wedding.

After listening to this wonderful album it really makes me want to load up dblue glitch and automate the crap out of it. I wonder if BT still does everything manually or if he does his classic studder with algorithms these days.

He's actually putting out a plugin soon. I just read an interview about how he coded up this plug that helped a lot with all the glitchyness.

Brian's done a lot for electronic music, and it's just not the hair... although that helps sometimes.

oh my god this album just made me a fan of BT again. this has been my experience with him (sound familiar??)

loved him in the beginning when i was all into trance (Ima and ESCM period)

Still loved him through MISL when nu school breaks became super popular

Fell off the wagon after his many pop collaborations and the cheesy Emotional Technology.

And now i love him again upon hearing this new release. jesus the man is incredibly talented. he's always been really good at micro edits, and to hear them being put to good use (ie not cutting up some cheesy vocal) is truly incredible. i wish i had 1/10 of the talent he does.

not what i expected at all quite downtempo and mellow. i didnt know this album was coming out. its a bit of a coincidence as ive been listening to ima and escm in the car all week.

BT seems to have been able to stay ahead of people's expectations. Just when they thought he was going on to produce "pop", he throws this genre defying work at 'em. Kudos to BT. His film work has really broadened him. This album reminds me of his soundtrack to "Monster".
