Latest Purchase - King Midas Sound

King Midas Sound - Waiting For You (Hyperdub)


It took me a while to get round to picking this up, which is a little surprising given my interest in both Hyperdub and Kevin Martin. I decided to give it a whirl from rubadub recently. I fancied it since it has both the old single Cool Out as well as the new 7" Lost, both of which I've had a mind to pick up.

Less mental, but more eerie than Kevin Martin's stuff as The Bug, there is a really heavy atmosphere to this album.  Roger Robinson's understated vocals emphasize the generally listless, melancholy feel of the whole thing.
