Meat Beat Manifesto

[Andrew]

Jack Dangers deserves his own thread. There's a fledgling new MBM website emerging here:

I grabbed the MBM Test EP and it came with an second disc, not clearly labeled, just says "the Forger"
which led me over here:

EBN lives on.

Love Jack Dangers' work and a huge MBM fan
One of my true inspirations with my own production
Subliminal Sandwich, Actual Sounds + Voices, and Autoimmune are my faves.
Saw em twice live over the last few years during the Autoimmune and A.C.I.D. tours in NYC
So amazing when they have a live drummer with em
The new Test EP is great too, back to that classic MBM style
Love the beats and samples used
Those vids are great for the entire release
I suggest people watch em to really experience the EP
The video sample work alone shows his true genius
So glad hes still around and making great music

I used to be a pretty big MBM fan. I don't really like the direction he's gone in since the 90s, but I still really love the run from 99% to Subliminal Sandwich.

I have no idea what "Thor .20" means, but it was a very cool listen for $6. Might spin it again while I wait for the HM audiophile-miix files to appear.

Evidently there's a new tour-only EP available at the upcoming tour. If someone going would be kind enough to pick one up for me and mail it to me, I'll pay in advance, cover shipping cost obviously, and throw a few bones on top for your troubles. Pls. let me know if willing!

I was literally going to ask the same thing lol.
So if anyone wants to make a little extra money from me and @perceptionnexus , I am offering the same if anyone is able to pick up the special tour only EP. I'll pay extra and shipping costs. Cheers!

I may hit the SF show, not sure yet so keep your money. I don't really know them tho, anything mandatory listen? seems like they touch on a lot of styles...

Yeah Jack has covered a lot of ground in his career. My personal favorite stuff was his Nothing Records run in the mid-90s, Subliminal Sandwich and Actual Sounds and Voices I consider to be some of his more eclectic material. The earlier hip-hop driven stuff like Satyricon and 99% is essential MBM also.

I definitely second Actual Sounds + Voices. I love all of his work. Also, Autoimmune was a more recent and personal fave. Subliminal Sandwich, Original Fire, In Dub... lots of goodies.

RUOK + Free Piece Suite is a desert island disc for me. 14 years later I still listen to it on a regular basis.
Someone pointed out that the US and UK versions of Autoimmune have significantly different tracklists, apparently it was intended to be a double album. I haven't thought about that one in ages but it might be time to track down the other version.

Oh man, RUOK... I remember the first time I listened to it, I didn't really connect with it. Then one night, my girl, my friend Brian, and myself all took some shrooms. I ended up putting RUOK on and we sat there mostly in silence as we listened to the entire album all of the way through. Completely changed the album for me. Sadly, I lost my Free Piece Suite CD when I moved. So gutted!

[neorev]

Does anyone here have the Free Piece Suite mini CD that came with R.U.O.K.? Would you possibly be able to rip it in WAV for me? I lost my copy during my latest move. So frigging pissed, can't find it anywhere.

Perhaps I may have a MBM release you're looking for that I can help you with in exchange. I have decent amount in lossless, otherwise in MP3.

[neorev]

You could always just buy another copy for a small price on Discogs..

https://www.discogs.com/sell/item/181886446

Regrettably, I've never heard RUOK? Saw some of you dudes hyping it in this thread and bought a sealed copy of it on vinyl for only $13. It doesn't come with the FPS, so I had to buy a second-hand CD to supplement it. Still only cost me like $20 total. Can't wait to hear what all the fuss is about..

Yeah, I can go that route. Just thought there might be a kind hearted soul on ETS that may wanna help me out before going that route. :P Trade some goodies for the favor.

[neorev]

When I saw them as a four piece during the Autoimmune tour, their live drummer did this awesome drum battle with the sampled audio/video footage. It was insane!

[NotoriousTIMP]

This was the song that got me into MBM and one of the best known tracks

one of the things that makes RUOK special is the extensive use of this throughout, it's distinctive: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EMS_Synthi_100
"In Dub" can be treated as an RUOK companion, best experienced with video in DVD form.

[neorev]

You guys ever watch the I Dream Of Wires documentary, it's now on Netflix. They talk to Jack Dangers a bit and you get to see some of his studio. I wish I could see the Hardcore Edition of the doc that's like 4 hours long.

[neorev]

Yes!!!
Someone going to Cold Waves V was kind enough to pick up the new MBM EP for me!!!
Arrives tomorrow!

I also was able to get 1 of only 500 Cold Waves V compilation CDs featuring exclusive new music from artists on the lineup.
Features an exclusive remix from Acucrack of a track off MBM's new EP.

Get 'em while you can... http://coldwaves.net/

[neorev]

It has arrived!

Has elements of their last Kasm02 EP mixed with some classic Subliminal Sandwich/Actual Sounds breaks...

NEW MBM ALBUM, ‘IMPOSSIBLE STAR’, OUT JANUARY 2018 AVAILABLE FOR PREORDER NOW


Meat Beat Manifesto has announced a new record. “Impossible Star” is to be released on January 19, 2018 via Flexidisc with distribution by Virtual Label. It is available for preorder on CD, digital, and vinyl.

You can preorder the record via Jack’s Bandcamp store, iTunes, and Google Play. Jack has also assembled a Spotify playlist spotlighting some of his favorite MBM tracks.

Greetings programs!
Do any of you plan to catch any Meat Beat Manifesto shows? Have you listened to the new record Impossible Star? I'm pretty much rotating a NIN, TR/AR, Radiohead, ToYo, HTDA, and MBM. It all seems to go together nicely. Don't get me wrong, I listen to more music than that. It just seems this collection fits nice when you have the records right in front of you. Emotion, pain, politics, love, and a little sweetness on a SciFi plate. If you don't know MBM, you're missing out. I'm always looking for that new (or old) music!

[neorev]

Psst...
There's already a Meat Beat Manifesto thread

@neorev Thanks! I even searched for Manifesto. I thought it was odd.

I'm a huge MBM fan, been listening to them since the mid-90s. I saw the Edge Of No Control Pt. 2 video on MTV's Amp and that did it for me. I began hunting whatever releases I could find. I remembered first getting Subliminal Sandwich and Satyricon. Circles off Satyricon is my favorite song and Actual Sounds + Voices is my favorite album. I've them twice in NYC, once for Autoimmune tour at Highline Ballroom and the Answers Come In Dreams tour at Santos Partyhouse. Both were the best sounding gigs I've ever been to. Jack really knows how to handle live sound. They're coming back to NYC soon for Cold Waves New York. Tempted to go.
