bickster Posted September 27, 2015 Moderator Share Posted September 27, 2015 One of todays purchases. Been looking for it for a while as this track is amazing. This is clearly the stand out track and that is probably because it features Konono No1. Rest of the album is decent but this one is fantastic 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

islingtonclaret Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 NEW ORDER'S NEW ALBUM. IS. AWESOME.Sick of the hype already. Sick of being told they are back, sick of being told its just like the old New Order. Sick of being told its their best since TechniqueIts not like the old New Order at all. No Hooky basslines and for me that set them apart.And Giorgio Moroder would like his sequencer back. Track 4 "Plastic"'s synth line might as well be I Feel Love. Track 5 is Yello at which point I gave upCaptain, I am detecting large volumes of middle age in this sector 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodders Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 (edited) will be honest, never listened to much New Order before but this latest one seems enjoyable enough currently: Edited September 28, 2015 by Rodders 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troon_villan Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 I'm the same. I never really paid them much attention before, classics aside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope. 31 is too young to have seen them live at the Imperial Cinema on Moseley on the Movement Tour EDIT: I think I'm trying to say we come at their career from different ends. I was there at the start and for me their powers waned after the first three albums. In fact I wasn't really a fan of Blue Monday and detested Confusion but they picked it up again then started losing it for me. As much as everyone loved Technique, I didn't. For me it was always Movement, Power Corruption and Lies and Low Life, after that pretty much meh apart from the odd tune Edited September 28, 2015 by bickster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leviramsey Posted September 28, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted September 28, 2015 Not an album (though the bulk of this is from the Autumn Thunder compilation), but... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xann Posted September 28, 2015 Author Share Posted September 28, 2015 Picked up 'Autumn Thunder' for £20 at the end of last year.It's good.The notes are quite interesting too, but not for the sports fans.They wanted their own sound. It proved to be a bit of a challenge as much was recorded at Abbey Road and in Munich.US and Europe went about recording slightly differently. He talks about microphones and technical stuff, as well as the composers' input. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
