Redeye Distribution, Cargo Records UK от лица компании Planet Mu Records Ltd. Abramus Digital, Audiam Publishing, ASCAP, SODRAC, LatinAutor и другие. 15 tracks 46:00. On his debut long-player Severant, Jamie Teasdale . Kuedo has made an album of dreamlike music, loaded with his own preoccupations with futurism and escapism, that's very different from his previous output as one half of Vex'd. With his intentions re-evaluated for the making of this album, his process to capture them has evolved to a more automatic way of creating tracks, cutting back on the endless technical options available to the modern producer and rendering them. Severant is a studio album by Jamie Teasdale, aka Kuedo, of the British dubstep duo Vex'd. The record was very well received by critics. Severant was very well received upon release, earning an aggregate 83 out of 100 from Metacritic based on 13 critics. XLR8R scored the album an 8. 5 out of ten, and ranked it number 11 on their list of the top 30 best releases of 2011. Fact gave it a 4. 5 out of five, later putting it number 16 both on their best albums of 2011 as well as their best albums of the. Planet Mu. This unlikely pairing creates variations in speed, color, and texture that make Severant a dynamic listen. There's constant tension between an otherworldly, futuristic feeling and this more stuttering energy that keeps the tracks earthbound. Take Scissors for an example: Teasdale floats an airy, alien organ over quick-hitting bass and machine gun hi-hats, and the result is visceral, like standing under a helicopter taking off at the same time, there's an eerily peaceful sensation to it. He also shows a good amount of range, going moody on Seeing the Edges, da. Album 2011 15 Songs. More By Kuedo. Dream Sequence EP. Assertion of a Surrounding Presence. Videowave EP. Stream Severant LP excerpts, a playlist by Kuedo from desktop or your mobile to the stunning debut album by Kuedo and read an interview with the man himself. As Vex'd, Jamie Teasdale was a dubstep pioneer in the early noughties. That all seems a long time ago now, as he prepares for the release of Severant, his debut album as Kuedo. The record evokes a futuristic landscape reminiscent of Blade Runner Teasdale claims the Vangelis soundtrack as a key influence yet listen closely and there's far more going on especially in the intricate rhythms inspired by such unlikely sources as footwurk, UK road rap and southern hip-hop. Don't expect these. Best known as one half of minimalist dubstep duo Vex'd, Jamie Teasdale, aka Kuedo, eschews the menacing wobble basslines he's renowned for in favor of a cinematic analog synth-led sound inspired by the proggy ambient scores of Vangelis and Mike Oldfield for his debut album, Severant

Was concerned about the number of tracks on each side sacrificing sound quality, but my concern was unwarranted. Great sounding pressing. The low end rattled my windows.

This definitely needs a double LP repress. Fantastic album, as someone mentioned – ahead of its time.

This record was about three years ahead of its time—still slept on I think.

I still do not understand why you would cram up 8 tracks on one side of a vinyl - and never will.

Well, it makes it cheaper to manufacture and purchase. I'd guess they felt a 2xLP wouldn't shift. You have to appreciate that releasing vinyl these days isn't easy - they risk making a loss on this specialist music.

To be fair, the tracks are really short so we're only taking 25 mins of music or so a side, some of Burial's singles go on longer than this.

Me neither. I just wish they had put out ant city on a 12". That tune deserves the full 45rpm treatment.

Neither do I. However, in defense of the engineers, the audio actually doesn't suffer that much... I've heard much much worse!

This is an album that mind-bogglingly succeeds at integrating the skittering rhythms and energy of Chicago Juke/Footwork into classic early-'80s electronic and ambient music, stabilizing the entire package with cinematic elements that are not, surprisingly, cheesy at all. During 2011 and 2010, I found it very interesting how dance producers are approaching the Juke/Footwork aesthetic currently gaining amazing amounts of international critique, and either recontextualising the style into a more popular one or, like the label Planet Mu, taking it on almost as their child savant, giving it space to grow and show off its raw and unadulterated talent. Planet Mu also gives the hi-fi vinyl treatment to straight-up Chicago Juke and Footwork which popularized itself by cellphone and Youtube videos—what a riot, that is. From what I can gather, this style has taken a saturation of pop and hip hop music inevitably found throughout the South Side of Chicago (and, like, everywhere else) and set it out to dry—no, wrung it tight in strong hands, forced dry in seconds—letting any remaining dampness bake and sizzle in the sun. The crustiness of the scorched pop and hip hop rag begins to disintegrate, and each particle is used to decorate urban monuments of fractured, perpetually crumbling mainstream relics. To this decorating, Kuedo contributes using long, wide brushstrokes of syrupy, oil-based paint.

In other words, it's a decent record.
