LLB Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 Kuba - How The future Sounded (Chillcode cd 10 - 2008) 1. Freak Controle 2. Stop That 3. Shining Rage 4. Something to say 5. How the future sounded 6. Kailash 7. Thousands of armys 8. Give it time (Indian Summer Mix) 9. But your dreams may not 10. Moksha 11. Try to forget 12. Wood is good It's the tenth Chillcode's release, so it's somehow an event in the label history. In order to celebrate it, the German label comes back with a second Kuba's album. Quite shared on first Laurence Harvey's productions released on the label, i wasn't really concerned with How The Future Sounded. I took the opportunity of a full listen of this album and at the very first try, my mind changed. So what's the difference? Paradoxally, i'd answer nothing ... I have the feel Kuba chose a more direct, emotional writing without altering his capacities. There's a come-back to the roots of the UK Psy-Chill here, the spirits of T.I.P – Mystical Experiences, the first Shpongle as same as the OTT's version are present. ...And at the same time , the music is very accessible & couldn't be more open targeted with all its influences : Indian (several T),Rock (T 3), IDM (T 7), Reggae (T 8) , Blues (T 11) just to mention few ones. On a long travel by car for holidays for example, this album is THE ideal companion for the coolest trip possible even if you're lost in major traffic-jam under heavy heat.

Yea it's a shame actually. This was one of the best albums of 2008 for me... I'm sure others out there have enjoyed this as much as I did. Be very interesting to hear what others think.
