Shy FX - Diary of a Digital Soundboy EP

[Caution]

Picked this up a few days back and can’t really make my mind up about it. The intros to most of the tracks are generally pretty DJ unfriendly and it all seems a little gimmicky with the cheesy and cringe worthy "Sheets" and the gospel inspired vibes of "Mercy"

Just wondering what people reckon to it, after a few days of mixing it I still don’t know what to really make of it all...

Hit or miss?

[DJ Sloss]

I'm a bit unsure of the ep is a whole, but On the run is one of my tunes of the year, love it!

Whats the exact Tlisting of it>?

Im feelin pretty much all of shy fx's stuff atm but id like to see what made it on the album

[Caution]

The EP tracklisting I have is...

On The Run
Sheets
Lover's Rock
Mercy

I just saw a thread on DNBA for the album launch party and it says that the album is coming out on Oct 17th featuring Feelings

Anyone know anything about the album? Is it likely to have Everyday on it?

The duo with 2005's most junglist vibes come again with a complete LP of infectious hits; 'Diary Of A Digital Soundboy' LP is due in late October.

The enormous appeal of 'Feelings' has jump-started Shy FX & T Power's new outlet Digital Soundboy Recs. The 12" is released on 3 October backed by 'Ruling Sound' from Canadian dub-star Visionary. Expect more from that man to follow as the new imprint rolls deeper. A second simultaneous 12" harks back to all time classic 'Feelings / Bambaata' - for those that missed out first time around.

Soul, funk, reggae, blues and gospel flavour then follow as the 'Diary Of A Digital Soundboy' collects smash sounds including 'Delta'', 'Lovers Rock' ,'On The Run' & 'Mercy'. Serious commercial appeal partners original soundbwoy flava effortlessly.

I really like On the run & lover's rock, but the other two are frankly a bit, well, sheet really! (xcuse the pun)
I think the problem with Shy Fx & T Power is that they are just re-using the same samples over and over. That drumloop is getting very tiresome now... it aint no amen! (although they do drop that in occasionally)

[Stumasta]

All about Lovers Rock.

Probably won't play it much as it's not all that fun mixing it tbh

[Rimardo]

Didn't manage to bag this but looking forward to getting the LP, still really feeling 'feelings' even tho it's been caned to fuck :o

I'm thinking it's gonna be released as 2 x EP's...
