  1. burials vocals aren't sampled are they?

    I swear I've heard those voices on etched headplate before.

    I still feel like his debut is better.

    Burial: It's always been difficult for me to make tunes. i'd just sit or walk waiting for night to fall hoping i'd make something i liked. Or come back in and try to make the club echo in my head from going out. I'd chosen certain vocals because the mood I was in. I wanted more vocals cos they attempt to form songs, its kind of sad but they get to you in the end, i don't want a singer i want something else. Also all i listened to for a year was Black Secret Technology. I still made most of the tunes in the dead of the night, and when you do that you have to let the tune kind of hypnotize you otherwise you'll just fall asleep or play Playstation. The tunes just lulled me, and you need a vocal to do that, and a certain type of sound to echo and circle and sway into a pattern. The moodiness made the tunes, not me. Now when I listen to them, they're ramshackle, DIY and rolling but I know there is a thing trapped in them so that when I look back on them, even if its dry, I know when it was made, I know what was going on that day, its like stapling real life to the side of the tune. I can't get a singer or some session musician to come in and play or sing some dry song, so I've got to get people singing acapellas or just mates singing in their phones and re-cut up what they're saying. Sometimes I run out of a vocal and I have to re-cut up each word and make them sing a whole new verse, and you cant tell what they're saying. But I feel I can make them say certain lyrics.

    I think Untrue is more accessible, but the s/t was a stroke of genius. I love them both for what they are.

  2. As a general guideline for interview attire, you should try to wear what you think your would-be boss wears regularly.

    My opinion: your interviewer(s) isn't going to care about the fit as long as it isn't sloppy, but he/she will think twice if you're underdressed.

    Not looking at what the position is for, I would say go with a suit over chinos and a blazer.

  3. I wouldnt say they run small, a US 10 is an EU 44 by typical conversion.

    for reference, my foot measures 11.5cm in width and 28cm in length and these fit fine length wise.

    Actually most use 43 EU =~ 10 US

    Although with NDCs I've generally found that 42.5 is the closest to US 10, but for this pair I have 43 cause you're right-- they're narrow.

    They're beautiful shoes... I'd even seriously consider for myself if they were 43... good luck mike

  4. Does anybody have a link to photos of previous A.P.C. collections? I can't seem to find anything; I was hoping for an archive. And I didn't feel like dredging up the apc thread in superfashion so I'm posting here.
