@sona I agree, and it's really the only significant problem that manifests itself throughout the trilogy - they don't really know how to start albums (although I'm sure plenty of people disagree), or really engage on their first tracks. I don't see how the tracklists could be otherwise though : O

Bruh, Pinch is the ultimate start. It’s a highlight of the Okra Experience ™

I definitely disagree with the implication that “paperhouse” and “future days” don’t fuck.

I just realized that Vitamin C plays during the opening credits of Inherent Vice. What a movie, what a song!

Definitely like this better than Tago Mago, gonna check the follow up tomorrow.

Ege is soooooo good and Future Days is toooooo! And Tago of course.



Looooove the classic CAN albums (the Damo-run).



Also check their Soundtracks album if you still want more Dewi, Mother Sky is one of their best tracks.

If I’m gonna consider levelling this up, I really need to remember what it’s called (and not refer to it as “Egg Basmati”… “Bamyasi”(apparently) is just so un-memorable, lol

This has those nice percussive grooves in a neat, concise little package. It does offer something more digestible than Tago and is quite a different vibe to Future Days.

but yeah, I need to spell it first without checking. Those are the rules.

Is it better to think of this as one continuous song / vibe? It kinda starts slowly for me. Pinch is such tease. Vitamin C is an obvious bop and Soup provides the crazy percussive energy (and eventually) the freak-out side of Tago in one quite nicely succinct cut. That’s definitely my fave part of the record

Oh yeah I think so too, it's more of a several movements stringed together somehow kind of album. Concise and very groovy.
