Wax (19) – No. 10001

The A side is just pure goodness, incredibly inspired and distilled!

Pretty sure the B side samples Donnacha Costello ‎– Olive B or is at least a remake of the sequence

Could be easy to complain about sound...unless you like this kind of sound and can recognise when every second and frequency of a track is absoultely right and perfectly designed to sound as it sounds. that b side´s high freqs that you couldnt say if its digital or just a cricket jumped into the microphone channel... So good.

It's a tremendous release from Wax.
Every track it's simple and clean with very,very deep bass lines.
Yes,it is Shed.

Its Shed.

Another excellent tune. Just the pitch change of the hat, on the A side, is like candy, to me.

It's hard to make a good simple tune. The person moaning about production quality probably doesn't like the drum track and I would reckon this is filtered on purpose to keep it deep; for me this only serves to bring the synths out more - niiice!

Theres nothing cheap sounding about this production to me, from an engineers perspective, its a well mastered piece with everything sounding purposeful & well balanced. Its a sparse but rich mix with a shimmering snappy high end, the rumbling foggy lows don't do much on a domestic system but this does damage on its intended platform, i.e. a big clean system. As for being boring, hugely disagree. I think René knows exactly what he's doing.

Definitely an overrated series. The production is pleasingly raw, but the synth riffs / chords are just too simplistic to be memorable. Yeah I know, minimalism and all that, but when it's this simplistic it's just boring.

i'm really sorry to say, but production quality to my ears, is cheap.
