[@luigimeschini3704]

Actually discovered this in 2014 because a friend of mine told me about this masterpiece and felt in love with it, immediately. If i knew there was a campaign i would have funded it immediately. Nowdays it's pretty much impossible to find and it costs 500-1500 US dollars.

[@oaschklumpat]

Production level not human

[@atikmakesmusic]

culprate is no human

[@SilvertortoisePiano]

I totally agree : )

[@pigeondoves]

Can't imagine another piece that brings feeling of an acid trip such accuratly

[@TrapandBass]

For those of you who haven't listened to the album, all I can say is; prepare yourselves. I don't think the world is ready for such a beautiful album. Well done John & friends for delivering such a unique piece of art.

[@golu_badbola]

listening to this album will be like walking with a hardon b/w the street but no one watching you.. #justguessing

[@juanvillarreal6077]

+Trap and Bass Iam preparing Trap iam defenetly preparing. I ve heard that Tipper said it was the finest album he listened in 10 freking years!!! Do u know how Culprate are or is ( John ), where are they from?

[@maniacguitar]

+Trap and Bass I agree.

Jerry Villarreal hi bro!

[@nakada1996]

Only listen to part 1 - w2

[@rudysmessage7737]

I've never been a fan of electronic music, almost all of my favorite albums were created by artists who'd either died or disbanded before I even existed, like Jeff Buckley, Bob Marley or Jimmy Hendrix. My first real taste of electronic music was when I was 17, floating around filthy dubstep mini-raves half mad on K. I truly thought, especially now with the music industries ceaseless addiction to cash and its blatant promotion of stupidity, that I'd never listen to an album in my lifetime that would make me feel the way this one does. Its not a simple emotion like happiness or sadness, its like nostalgia, that bitter-sweet, complex feeling that washes over you when you return to an old place from your past that has moved on, or when the smell of tomatoes reminds you of a dead friend. Thank you Culprate.

[@SilvertortoisePiano]

Well said thank you for sharing.

[@SadisticLoli]

uh what >or when the smell of tomatoes reminds you of a dead friend

[@TerraAcox]

There is a word for that feeling, hiraeth, and that's exactly how I feel about this song tooooooo

[@guyincognito3089]

The hidden "DMT" in the artwork is really cool. D on the left then center M and T, leading towards absolution at the end and with these kinda bug obstacles that are really just Mind or Soul unsure of its own reality (absolution) out front. Really dope.

[@eputty_audio]

I have never noticed that hahaha, amazing

[@Camiiiii5724]

That's cool, was deff giving me Salvia vibes for the most part

[@bladiebobby3094]

I'm trying to find the t tho ?

[@Sqlut]

i think it's just some pareidolia

[@samhodge7460]

I discovered this song a few months ago and could almost instantly tell I had found something special. What a beautiful and complex composition. I've not heard anything quite like it.

[@flarkmusic]

Got this on vinyl. The artwork is so great, but the music... Got to listen to it at least twice a year...

[@StrawberryWarlord]

this album and number 4 are so far off the rails man. you stand as one of the most unique and talented electronic producers out there right now. PLEASE do more of this style, this sort of somber surreal prog.

[@hevnervals]

I don't know much about music production, but this song hit me as insanely well composed

[@grimblegrumble]

+Autochrome It is. VERY well composed. The entire album is.

[@gobillygook]

made in ableton live if I'm not mistaken?

[@Tactix_se]

the level of production in this album is absolutely second to none. Culprate is truly a modern genius

[@ACEMEDIA]

Lyrics 1:36 Speak without sound and dream in hushed whisper Bite your tongue, counting time Touch of our skin brings trembles and shiver Wrapped in love, brought to life Tortured and young and starved to the bone Sink like a stone, sink like a stone Bounded by love and will to survive We’ve made a new life A stable new world

[@ACEMEDIA]

I wish this had more lyrics to it than just the ones at 1:36 :(

I think it is We ve made a new life and for sometime I thought it was blinded by love but I think bounded is right.

[@WobblePasta]

This will always be one of my favourite songs ever. Just feel like crying every time i listen to it.

[@frankycheifsosa8946]

This song is a trip already, it is something even further on 3 tabs. Absolutely beautiful

[@anjopag31]

THIS ALBUM FLOWS SO WELL PLAYING IT FROM ONE END TO THE OTHER SEEMS LIKE ONE BIG STORY

[@jami099]

damn this sounds like your poured your soul into this one

[@__-xl1zi]

Man that perfectly describes what I feel about this! This is the most accurate comment in the whole comment section

[@scottbeale1825]

This song is a MASTERPIECE. One of the few songs I consider a true 10/10

[@ConnorHammond]

Yup!

[@badgoyqc1647]

whenever i come back to this song, tears of joy and sadness fill me whole

[@DemizeCOMP]

Culprate is so diverse, yet pulls of every genre with perfection. Definition of talent!

[@OddChap]

Such an incredible album, this is my ultimate favourite. 11/10 would recommend to everyone on the planet

[@dabinmusic]

Culprate and Koda

[@oelchbouk]

is that a suggestion or is that koda singing?! o: btw. you should make another song with koda, i LOVED it! and i also would love to see a asa x koda collab, but no idea if they know each other :d

[@FeLiX13sLaVe]

oelchbouk definitely Koda vocals

[@oelchbouk]

FeLiX13sLaVe yeah right, but i was confused because he isn't mentioned in the title... like (feat, Koda) or something^^

[@noodlegrannybill]

oelchbouk from bandcamp. throughout the album: Vocals - Koda, Jaggi Suta Das, Emma Wilson and Govinda Priya

[@johnkav105]

oh so it is Koda was wondering!! Koda is life!!!

[@HisAfroQueen]

I've waited too long to listen to this album. Just now listening to Whispers Pt. 1 and already in love.

[@fernandoadauto5354]

This is still be my favourite one, it's like that piece of art that most of the people don't know apreciate, cause this is it, a piece of art, beautiful work, all the chords, the tones, melody and the effects, they fit perfectly, I love your work guys, never stop.

[@not_tellingaus]

Timeless song in 2023. Can't wait to revisit this comment 40 years from now.

[@lordbearington9216]

This is my favorite opening to any album hands down

[@Dichiara25]

Thank you so much for making this song! It's this peculiar type of track that you don't tend to really appreciate when you first hear it (albeit you can easily notice the great attention to details) and start to truely like after listening to it several times. I'm currently in this mood, and what a pleasure it is to know this masterpiece. Whispers goes through so many different phases, venturing from a cheerful and dynamic start with a glad humming singer (Koda's hums I assume) to a very bittersweet nostalgic and melancholic sax part ; not to mention the impressive so-called 'rain' part (3:00) which genuinely gives me the tremble and shiver pictured in the lyrics, with a fair bit of mere nostalgia. The spectrum of emotions this song displays in myself is astonishing, awe inspiring. Although I truely like your other dubstep (or whatsoever) tracks, I can state doubtlessly that this song is by far the best you've ever made... Thanks again! Hope this song will get some more recognition in the not-too-distant future Edit: stepping into this comment I l left 9 years ago, damn this song never ages

[@fernandoadauto5354]

All the small details make me come back everytime for the same reason: it never gets boring to listen to such a masterpiece

[@jbvhertmoya7791]

it's like I discovered some kind of ancient masterpiece. Damn this is artistic.

[@brodyzimmerman7901]

You will forever be my inspiration in sound design. Thank you for opening my eyes to what is possible in this endless world of music.

[@isaak.s]

[@PaulBeykirch]

like others stated...this track is a gem. the album is awesome as a whole but this one track is magical.

[@supraguy4694]

It is very rare when a song makes me cry the first time I hear it, and I can't stop replaying it. Well done man.

I hope that future culprate albums have songs like this.

My love sent this to me when he was dying of cancer. His exact words were, "I'm happy that you will get what you want and I'll get pain." And then he sent the link to this song. I left to go out-of country and came back to hear he was gone.

[@Raiderluv72]

Truth

[@Lessthanthreeedm]

First time I've heard this album I was like ''Culprate? The f*ck are you doing? Where's your Glitch Hop stuff?''. But then I gave another try and fell inlove with this stuff, especially ''Whispers Part 1'' and ''Within''. Played them like 100 times already.

[@pinkwizards]

This is one of the most well put together albums I've ever heard in my life. Well done sir, well done.

[@valzugg]

Amazing. This is like Pink Floyd + Amon Tobin, but not in a copying kinda way.

[@Googamolop]

Totally agree.

[@sl9dge]

In its previous episode (album "Colours", cause this one is described as its suite), the very end of last track had a Pink Floyd'ish sequence, even King Crimson'ish, and since it was like the last moments of the album, this one perfeclty starts with the same spirit/ambiance... It's a perfect suite, the loop is done.

[@ProphasisDnB]

Hole in one sir hole in one!

[@thelynx1084]

sl9dge your comentarish is verish goodish

[@sl9dge]

We could also say this was a King Crimson'ish sequence =)

[@diegoanvidal]

Happy New Year, trying to understand why 4:26 is so priceless.

[@TerrorPeaks]

I think I'll always remember this one. Been trying to get theneedledrop to review this album to at least grab it a little more exposure, and have been eyeing pitchfork for reviews, but there have been none so far. Really surprised that there hasn't been more hype for this - is it too controversial to say that this is underrated?

[@AndrewKFM]

Not at all. In my opinion it was the best album of 2014. It`s an understatement to say its underrated. This deserves all the exposure one can give.

[@Nisfornarwhal1990]

Beautiful.

[@assaf]

Awesome track. Happy this album is happening.
