Burial – Street Halo

My copy matches this one, except... How can this be 15th Anniversary? The original was released in 2011...

I bought a vinyl of this in 2022, direct from Hyperdub. I feel like it is probably a repress; same swirly slipcover design as this 2019 Kindred: https://discogs.desbloquearpagina.com/release/18794809-Burial-Kindred

Just noting as it doesn't seem to be listed here.

10 years later and this still blows my mind. I like all 3 tracks but Stolen Dog stands out specifically. My favorite Burial production to date.

Absolutely amazing EP, bout to rip Burial up in the place.

Dubstep . . . . . . .. . . . My Dogs arse!

Burial always brings the best of the UK, amazing tacks all the way around

All three are masterful. Street halo gets a lot of love but for me NYC stands out as being one of the prettiest things he has ever made. The way the full vocal melody plays through at the start and then never plays again until near the end is genius.

Stolen dog is absolute top. I cannot imagine a better track.

Just to be sure, but is side B really 33 1/3 rpm?

The reason why Burial is such an icon in today's music scene is because it's a dramatic contrast to the oftentimes soulless music you hear being churned out by typical house/dub/techno producers today. You know - the dark, unresponsive, mechanical, over-digitized, and needlessly complex music that gets played in today's clubs. Entering the picture is Burial, with their moody songs filled with emotion and melancholy, their atmospheric landscapes, and their soulful vocal snippets. In "Street Halo" and other releases, Burial is putting back the "music" into "electronic music". The title track is the strongest, and most danceable one on this record, but don't sleep on any of the others, as they all demonstrate a comparably high level of production quality.
