Burial – Claustro / State Forest

Main sample in Claustro is from this tune:
Shyheim feat. 702 - Don't Front/Let's Chill (1996 - Noo Trybe Records – 7243 8 41583)

Like many Burial releases you might first hear these tracks and say Hm That was alright. But if someone manages to worm the club tune into a mix, delight ensues. The ambient piece might be the best for me... Great late-night vibes

Is this seriously supposed to be a 45? It sounds deranged

Great release. Something for people who love the more club oriented Burial tunes and the more ambient, mood pieces. Claustro is one of the more aggressive dance songs from Burial and State Forest is this beautifully peaceful track to round it off.

the more i think about it the more i'm confident this is the best thing he's done post-untrue era. both sides rule but the A is unreal.

How wonderful is that eurodancish ending on the last seconds of Claustro. What a genius

I don't know, but none of the stuff he has been doing ever since his masterpiece "Untrue", has been as compelling. Not a fan of the vocal track.

hate the fact that they gave no samples before the release and all i got was the claustro rip. state forest is divine and i missed the chance to get it on vinyl.

Not particularly a fan of the size of the jacket. There's no inner sleeve, and because the jacket is smaller than normal it means putting one inside is kind of annoying because it'll bend.

But have you listened to Claustro at 33 1/3? It gives up so many more secrets, especially in the coda...
