"This first album on Kode9s Hyperdub label comes from the
mysterious Burial. On this self-titled CD debut, Burial
carves out a sound which sends the dormant slinky
syncopations of uk garage, via radio interference, into a
padded cell of cushioned, muffled bass, passing through the
best of Poles Berlin crackle dub.
Burial explores a tangential, parallel dimension of the
growing sound of dubstep. Burials parallel dimension sounds
set in a near future South London underwater. You can never
tell if the crackle is the burning static off pirate radio
transmissions, or the tropical downpour of the submerged city
outside the window. In their sometimes suffocating
melancholy, most of these tracks seem to yearn for drowned
lovers. The smouldering desire of Distant Lights is cooled
only by the percussive ice sharp slicing of blades and jets
of hot air blowing from the bass. Listen also for a fleeting
appearance from Hyperdubs resident vocalist, the Spaceape
unravelling his crypto-biography. In its loud quietness,
Burial takes his kitchen crackle aesthetic neither from the
digital glitch nor merely a nostalgia for vinyls materiality.
Instead, as Pirates suggests, Burial crackle mutates the
tactile surplus value of pirate radio transmissions. Burials
mix is haunted. Echoed voices breeze in and out, on road to
another time. Pirate signal from other frequencies steams in.
A tidal wave of noise submerging all but the crispest
syncopations. The noise is not violent, but caressing,
tickling, exciting the ends of your nerves. Seducing you in."
