Djrum* – Portrait With Firewood

An absolutely piece of art, so many emotions and places you can reach with this immaculate production . Has everything I want from a record. 10/10

Amen (boom boom) to everyones comments below. I've been playing this album for five years now and it still sound so fresh. Brilliance from beginning to end.

I'm about to impart some pretty useless information, so forgive me but I couldn't help myself. I recently listened to Seven Lies in it's entirety and while being good and sometimes great, it's not this.
If you don't have this in your collection well, you're missing an absolute gem of a record. The beautiful combination of contemporary classical music and those immense, thick molasses sliding bass notes is a portal into a festival of all that's contained within a galaxy. Even if you're not entirely into the heavy club beats which are plentiful here, it don't matter. This is classy intelligent song writing.

Cheers Djrum.

Very much looking forward to the next journey.

I’m eagerly awaiting my preorder but I have to know: is this album given the respectful repress it deserves?

Don't think I own a record that ages better than this. Totally singular vision, masterful.

The work of Marina Abramović has been acknowledged as a big source of inspiration for this album, and if there is one identifiably Abramovićian attribute in it, it’s the need to “be in the moment”. One second there’s a weeping duet between cello and piano, the next it’s all drum’n’bass rhythms and highly processed vocals, but all of it feels like it belongs on the same island.

This album is a pure sonic journey. The LP owner should be just happy.

A true masterpiece. Check also showreel Pt.2 on Broken Glass Arch ep.

It's been a year now since I've bought the vinyl of this and after listening through it many times I can finally reflect on it the best I possibly can for now:
This album is a masterpiece. There is a common theme throughout the journey when it comes to sound design, yet every individual track sounds distinct from the others. It features a perfect balance of soothing compositions and electrifying breakbeats.
Once a track is finished there is this brief moment when you feel disappointment that the track has to be over but with the first sound of the following track you get instantly reminded that there is so much more to feel happy about when it comes to this album.

It has been just two days since I discovered this amazing album and must say, It's nothing that I've listened to before. A clever approach to the melodies with amazing ambient textures, packed in a solid IDM rhythm section all around. AAA+++ Must listen!
