If you like Burial, make sure you read Pitchfork’s review of this 12, it’s great.
It’s tough to pick the best part, because like they say in the article, there’s really 3 tracks over the course of Rough Sleeper’s 14 minutes.
But I keep coming back to the organ, listen to the funny way it loops.
Rough Sleeper 1:58 – 2:28
From Truant, released through Hyper Dub Records, 2012

“..on the beach, on the ocean of my dreamscape only in my dreams”
It’s like homemade lo-fi Beach boys right? The best part is the chorus I think, but the guitar throughout makes the track. The video is worth watching to see the humour in the song, and look out for the Dam Funk track on the album too.
Only in My Dreams 0:40 – 1:04
From Mature Themes, released through 4AD Records, 2012

“when my soul starts growing….”
I thought he was saying ‘son’ but soul works too.
Ponytail 1:17 – 2:01
From Person Pitch, released through Paw Tracks Records, 2007
“Comfort, comfort, why do you run for it…”
Keep in mind this happens at the 3:00 minute mark, the whole song doesn’t sound like this. Go on, do a little jig, you know you want to.
Graze 3:12 – 4:05
From Fall Be Kind, released through Domino Records, 2009
“…thank you very much for the opportunity to share with you a very wonderful, exciting, memorable, casual, experiences..”
Taking the whole intro off the EP and the first 10 seconds of the first track for this best parter…this guy found some space to inhabit in the music universe that is wholly his own. This music has a real spirit to it, and he’s in good company with Bullion on One Handed Music. Check out the EP, and if you want more, check out this track.
Intro/ Bakiraq 0:00 – 0:38
From Drum Talking, released through One Handed Music, 2011
Hey, welcome back. Here’s one that’s nice for Fall. I thought this was going to be released on his upcoming EP Enough Thunder, but it’s not showing up on the advance tracklist. Found it on the BBC special that just aired, which has all sorts of gems in there. This one is stand out.
He plays Toronto on Sept. 30th, might want to check it out!
Deeds 1:20 – 1:50 (approx)

Props to Kanye for finding this gem and turning it into Blame Game, great tune, tracking down the sheet music….

Gets me every time, wow! Forget what you know about techno.
From Carl Craig Versus Les Siecles Orchestra, recorded live at Cite de la Musique, Paris, October 18, 2008
There’s an album too, naturally after this masterpiece.
