Derek™ Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Obligatory fuck yeah to new Hammock. Obligatoey fuck off to $35 LPs. So it goes with new Hammock albums. At least the new track is gorgeous. They can definitely layer and write beautiful music that's active, but I'll always be the most fond of their minimal approach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What did you end up receiving? $35 PPD for a stateside album is pretty gross, but I always sort of second-guess that stance when I realize it's going through their Bandcamp. They probably see a lot more of that bloated price point than if they were selling through a distro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek™ Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 They have so much they still need to press on vinyl, too. Not that I remotely enjoy dropping $30+ on a single record, but I'm a little more inclined to do so if it'll help fund prior gems finally getting pressed. Gonna' have to dwell on this one until I'm ready to be stupid and make a bad decision. highfives 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still need to grab that but yesterday kinda hurt my funds. I didn't even expect this to drop - kinda like the Foo and Cloakroom LPs.

It's just too easy to sleep on a $35 record. I don't know why, because I love them and always regret not grabbing them when I have the chance.

EquinoxDesignLab Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Anything Hammock puts out is an insta-buy for me. As each year goes by I patiently await a vinyl pressing of Chasing After Shadows...I really hope we dont have to wait another 3 years for the 10th anniversary to roll around like they did with Raising your voice.

JRHews Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 How limited are these color options...? Need some time to ponder this as well, but I'm really letting my wild side lean towards the 'insta-buy the Clear you fuck nut' option... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if that's the actual run amount of each though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that's what's left? Either way, I'm always for new Hammock. I always get a meh feeling for each right away, then I end up loving them after tons of replays, so I feel like I can't go wrong.

Derek™ Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Spent some time with this one earlier in the week – much to no one's surprise, it's stunning. The album art lends itself to the same style of the Sleepover Series' art, so I was suspecting (and hoping) for something more on the minimal side. What we get is something that's fairly droney and minimal, but with some really lush, cinematic shifts and accents. I think this record is the perfect stepping stone between their ambient and orchestrated sides. Very happy with the way it turned out.

jrodan Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 (edited) no talk about this music scores the new John Cho indie "Columbus"? the preview for the movie with the music made me interested in seeing it.

jrodan Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 this is out today. I caved and bought the clear from bandcamp. album is absolutely gorgeous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drds89 Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Everything I've ordered from them has come Priority shipping (which means next day from TN to VA) $7 sounds like media mail though--- we'll see if they built the extra shipping cost into the album price this time, or if it arrives media. Beautiful music. The world is always a better place with more Hammock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highfives Posted November 3, 2017 Author Share Posted November 3, 2017 They just dropped the soundtrack to Columbus. Digital only at the moment. http://shop.hammockmusic.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
