if you haven't heard much by shed but be sure to check out one of his EPs it's called 'well done my son' beautiful tracks. def gonna buy this album

really looking forward to this...

I LOVE Shed! Glad to see this. RA, when do we see a mix of his material on the pod?

raaaahhh such an underrated producer making great music!!! cant wait for the album!

Yes! really looking forward to this his SSGS mix is like having a little piece of sunshine on your ipod ever ready to go when you are. Totally agree with 'Well done my son' such a wonderful record, both versions.(033472 Edit) being my favorite.

this guy is SO underated, lay off the villalobos/ hawtin for 5 minutes and give this man a chance!!!

This guy is the nads. Pure gimmick free stripped-back techno goodness! Remember hearing Warped Mind for the fist time on a 'blim podcast for Rinse and was totally mesmirised. No doubt this album's a belter. Let's hope the hype forgets to pay Sheddy a visit and he stays nicely underwater where he belongs...

this gotta be awesome!!!!!no doubt about it_________.)can't wait to check it out!!!!!!!

much love and respect! his sounds and mixes do nothing but inspire. a true rarity in today's scene.

congrats to the reviewer for doing justice to this album. breathtaking stuff. along with 'songs from the beehive', clearly best album of the year so far. amazing stuff. much, much respect to shed.

This is awesomely weird. I love the early Thomas Brinkmann qualities this album has in parts, especially "flat axe." The slow development; bizarre, jilted rhythms; clickish beats. Requires some aural re-orientation. But then there's all the trappings of Detroit (Model 500, Cybotron, Kenny Larkin, Kevin Saunderson) lightly sprinkled in, such as the ambient washes in the background, the occasional crashing hi-hats. Wonderful spacewalk music.

The 'cheese factor' tune isn't so bad either. Nothing wrong with a little downtempo action. And it makes for a nice slow down leading to nebulous Waved Mind, philosophy and a brief respite before the pummeling. 'True. Techno. Music.'

ohuenno!!!

sick, sick album, without a doubt!

Everything about this album surprised me. Incredibly refreshing to here techno produced this way. Just became a big fan of Shed

'true. techno. music.'

kaBLAM!

that beats everything is a real bomb when you play it inbetween other ostgut stuff,,,,great album

I'm waiting patiently in the U.S. for this one. Love this guy's stuff, and appreciate all his help recently at the shop.

shedding the past - vinyl version is off the chain. fresh sounds and killer beats. tip!

Heads up...

it's about time this guy gets some credit!!! he's been a top fave of mine since i first heard his productions, i just got the album and it's just f*cking f*cking fantastic!! 11 tracks of his own work, not just another compilation. can't wait until he comes to ny in sept. def one of the top albums of the year

is there a digital version of the album on beatport?

It was such a horrible day in Brixton. The weather has been particularly rude this year. The insides of a vile leaden cloud cut down pedestrians approaching Brockwell Park. This mean spirited storm tore through cheap umbrellas like the proverbial hot knife. The relentless horizontal rain even robbed one elderly man of a pair of loose fitting bins. I was soaked and slid across the pavement in an embarrassing leg scissor. Warped Mind by Shed was playing on repeat and I was damned if i was going to take shelter. It was an exceptionally happy day. What a special piece of music. Looking forward to more wet days listening to this new long player. Bring on the storm!

finally got this album,and ?????????? just love it,no doubt one of the best albums of the year, it's peace of work,balance is perfect between tracks,it's already 5th time on the row i'm listening to it,and i want more and more_______________________________
i think it's 5/5,now i understand why amery in love with it_________________________________.)

this is one of the best things I've heard all year. Sounds so well thought out. I had just gotten done enduring a first listen of DeadMau5 (not all that great) and then put this on afterward... my God did it sound better.

thanks to a friend on here.. got a listen to this.
brilliant will be a good word for this! totally programmed like an exciting album.. one beauty leads to another.

very superb - fine album
must to have!

excellent work!

really nice atmosphere in that album. love it!

This is what good production and mastering sounds like!(!) The Ostgut/Berghain crowd is coming up with some refreshing, imaginative techno.

Looking forward to seeing Shed here in Boston next week!

I was very skeptical about all of the hype but I'm glad to say I'm very happy with this!
To me this sounds like a nice marriage between the cleanliness/crunchiness of modern berlin mnml sound with the pads and emotion of old detroit stuff. Can definitely feel the model 500 pads in there. Nice.

How fantastic is this. Rich, organic, fan-bloody-tastic !
Love it.

WOOOOOORD! That's the most cathartic part of the album...so cool

Amazing album!

solid beats with a glitch here and there and nice atmospherics.

the first time i listened to this i wasn't entirely convinced-the production was there and some tunes were great, but as a whole i wasn't sure...

i put this on yesterday for another listen, and my god this is the best record of the year. truly impeccable-a five for me no question. no hate for "slow motion replay" on this front. the last three songs are easily my favorite suite on any record this year-"estrange" is so beautiful. awesome record.

great album also loving the substance remix.

This guy is an alchemist! Really nice work.

cool !!

Word!

Finally got around to listening to this. Powerful stuff. I took a 2 hour detour driving home the other night, so I could listen to it again... and again.

Finally listened to this last week and love it. Can see why it was in the albums poll tho personally I cant see beyond Flying lotus for best album of the year.

Really masterpiece!!! i listened to it all night, dont even want to turn it off.....> < True Techno Music!!!!

One of favorite albums)

Estrange has to be my favorite track of all time. timeless piece of music.

Can't help it...after almost 4 years i still think this is a masterclass album!

still relevant after all those years, now I know where the Triangle-acts got their shit from, Shed Rules !

Such a great album
