What you say No-one has reviewed The World Is Gone by Various Production yet. Give us your opinion on The World Is Gone by Various Production. What we say This record left our Phil feeling sad. We were expecting great things of the Various Production album (called The World Is Gone). The singles were blinding so the album was met with a degree of high expectation..... consequently we're hideously disappointed with it. If you've got the singles then you've got the best tracks (most of which are on here) and the rest of it seems like filler to us. However now it's on XL and those who are new to this lot (as the 7"'s were all limited) will probably garner a whole load of pleasure from this as it's unique mixing of grime and folk isn't really like anything else. It does sound an awful lot like Massive Attack at times and I wonder how forward thinking it actually is. Ant rightly pointed out that grime and folk aren't 2 genres that would normally mix so this seems like it's been done by someone a bit savvy who's tailored it to the current market trends. Call me cynical but that's what it whiffs of like to us.......

About the humble LP:

The LP is the daddy of formats. 12" inches of sheer joy. The LP adds to the glory of the 12" record as it can be played at a slower speed (33rpm instead of the usual 45rpm for singles), consequently more musical joy can be had. Played on a decent deck the sound of an LP is about a million times better than any other format. They look fantastic...... a nice gatefold sleeve with a information rich inner sleeve will keep you entertained for hours even before your stylus has chance to make eye contact with it's 12" prey. An essential part of musical heritage which will never be forgotten. It still does play at a multitude of speeds but as it's recorded to be played slower they normally sound ridiculous sped up. Though double albums can make up for this slight inadequacy by ramming more tunes into your ears for your money. Utterly essential.
