Burial – Burial
Burial's debut album has been heralded as a breakthrough, and it pretty much lives up to the hype. It's dubstep without the MC culture, it's gritty syncopated rhythms with a twist of Basic Channel thrown in. There's an air of menace in the atmosphere that really gets to you on an emotional level, it is what Blade Runner would sound like if it was filmed in London to a background of rain and pirate radio stations. Listen to it on good speakers. [link]
Interesting comparison of macs’ power consumption in different modes. A dual G5 still pulls 3.2 W when powered down! This comforts me in my use of powerstrips to switch everything off at night or when not in use.
