Rod Stasick I have so much love for this album - still! This got sooo much airplay on my radio show in the 80s. Lovely to hear it again. Favorite track: Work for Do You Me? I Did [1 & 2] / Swamp.

about

EMEGO 102

This Way, originally released in 1984 on Mute (STUMM 18), was Bruce Gilbert’s first solo album being realised in that brief period between Dome winding down operations and Wire reforming for first time.
A stunning study of controlled ambience and subtle minimalism, which is still regarded as an all time favourite to us here at Editions Mego. The bulk of the album is taken up by the mighty Do You Me? I Did / Swamp pieces which were commissioned for piece of the same name by choreographer Michael Clark. A grey tonal poem of amazing bleak beauty building up to the ecstatic crescendo of the third movement. Elsewhere short notes on the possibilities of abstract electronic noise are included in the form of Here Visit and U, Mu, U, which still hold their sense of urgency a quarter of a century after being initially recorded.

Burial fully realises the ambient aspects of his work that he has been leaning towards over the past few years. Whether you like it or not, you can't deny that this is undeniably Burial. Kutkh_Jackdaw
