Last year I was plugging Esem's Scateren album to high heaven and I thought it was just brilliant and thankfully so did you. Well, this is the best free album i've downloaded since then and its also not been on my playlist as much since I downloaded the great Electromagnetic radioshow by The Village Orchestra. This one is a repeated listen after repeated listen kind of album. Anyway, I'll stop waffling and get on with it.

Its called Overwinning by Maus and its a fantastic blend of Orbital beats and Plaid bleeps with layers of fantastic melody that carry you off the floor a few inches. Its on a Dutch label called Urlauten and the page for the tracks is here. All the track titles are Dutch for some reason although Maus is from Los Angeles He said that he purposely chose this label for release so maybe he titled the tracks accordingly in wonderful dutch!

I've taken the last 10mins typing out this thread so the very least you can do is check out the music either by listening to the tracks on the page or by downloading the zip of the whole album on the album page.

Just be sure to come back here and let me know what you think! Trust me on this one, its really great.

I've listened to the first couple tracks... and you should too!

This is good stuff

downloading now...

Isn't this the same Maus who used to be on this forum? A lot.

That's what I was wondering when I read the thread title.

& Stimpy's advice on Scateren was so good I'll be grabbing Overwinning. right away.

Yeah i've already got this Always liked his music and that much so that i passed one of his cds onto Plaid for him a couple of years back! If you like Plaid then you should like any of his stuff. He is also on Myspace

listening now, most of the way through - excellent so far

Dog - yes same Maus

any opinions?

yep, bloody great

yay for mentioning marcia blaine school for girls (well, vilage roadshow at least)

(goes and downloads all the stuff from the OP. )

This stuff is crazy awesome. I just wish I knew Dutch better. What is "Drietal"? Triangle?

The little Mexican-sounding ditty Vergeten is tits. I can't get it out of my head.

hey!

wow... i was actually stopping by to see what was up on the loopz forums and happened upon this thread. super happy that everyone is enjoying the album! and thanks a million stimpee for furthering the cause!

i'm taking a bit of a respite from 'maus' stuff for the moment, but even as i say that there's a pile of new stuff in the works. and i'm doing a live show out here in LA this evening as well. that's a first. i've done 'dj sets' of a sort, but this is the first "live" show.

anyways, thanks for everyone's kind words, really. it means a lot. =)

and loopz... i swear to the jesus, i have a package for you in the back of my truck which goes all over LA with me. but it's hefty so i keep putting off mailing it. i promise to get it on the way to you soon.

rock on,

big up your mausy self
