Steve – yeah, man. For me, the first time I heard this kind of stuff, I was hooked. Be careful, though – when you find yourself chopping and screwing Postal Service live on air on college radio, you know it’s time to (no pun intended) slow down. I speak from experience – I got a lot of angry calls that night.

Other things that sound good slowed and sliced: old jazz records, disco, the Whispers’ “And The Beat Goes On”. I think I’m going to try Bjork later on today.

Sara – haha! Actually, as I was posting this, I was thinking to myself that this wouldn’t be your flavor. Yeah, I was actually surprised that Suburb went that direction with this song.

Now, this, me likes.

For some reason, the moment 25 lighters kicked off, I just completely got it. And I have never tried anything like this before.

Another cool thing about this style is that the speed does something awesome for the bass.

Thank you for bringing this.

i have never seen such word choice as a slogan…

i made it up on the spot after feeling refreshed by the slow

well it was pretty intense since i was on a post-midterm candy flip, seeing blocks of streets vortexing in slow motion
showers of something like a monsoon of shooting stars…
noisily churning blazing embers
ashen in seconds

I have checked ‘keep all unplayed episodes’ in preferences
(cause of my 40GB hard drive)

oh, okay. Glad it grew on you.

and automatic deleting of podcasts if you listen to them? Is this some “feature” that I’m not aware of?

dex, about 3 times to acquire, cause this was something new to me.
to be precise I dont know exact itunes play count of this ep cause I dont play it to the very end (this prevents from automatic deleting)

Cii – 3 times? was the site crashing or something?

leen – isn’t that a slogan or something? I’m also noticing that your name is appropriate to this episode.

supercali – matrix time is the new normal time.

For those who don’t “get” this stuff at first listen: you might be listening in the wrong mindstate. It’s basically still summer here for me, so my recommendation would be to burn this on a CD or plug your iPod into the stereo system on your car and take the scenic route home from work, slowly. That should help some.

I’ve found that bicycling, iced tea, and parks also go well with screw music.

SC – haha! – so what’s the final verdict?

biggda – I don’t know if I could call the dude trash – he made Mike Jones sound palatable. And that’s a feat in and of itself. If you have other recommendations for DJs who can do this stuff right, holler…my vocab is definitely kinda limited in this area.

Rafiki – yeah, it’s definitely an acquired taste. For whatever reason though, I dig it. Maybe you’ll dig the next one though..

I have to be honest on this one: didn’t like it. this whole slowed down thing just sounds wrong in my ears…

Good Selection. Watts is trash.

yes son yes! let the replies/flames begin but also let it be known that i’ve already (before listening to the whole thing) declared this the best ep ever!
