{"product_id":"844667044607","title":"The Locust: The Plaintive (Vinyl LP)","description":"Vinyl LP pressing. The Plaintive is the first new album since 2014 by the legendary, and somewhat underrated electronic project of Mark Van Hoen, Locust. Produced intermittently over a 5-year period, the tracks were created with a largely-digital eurorack modular system, alongside a selection of analog synthesizers, notably a newly-acquired Prophet 12 polysynth. While tracks like If You Knew and Out Here are reminiscent of classic Locust, much of The Plaintive shows us a new side to Locust - melodic, playful, and melancholic, with clear nods to the melodic electronic sounds of early pioneers like Cluster, early-Kraftwerk, or even OMD's late-70s output. For Suction's vinyl release of The Plaintive, we've chosen 10 highlights from the original 15-track digital release, housed in a stunning The Designers Republic LP jacket.  Answering Now, A Beginning, Let Me See, Music Box, If You Knew, Metals, The Longest Day, Towers, St. Cecelia, Out Here","brand":"Suction Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39672408047766,"sku":"844667044607","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2231\/7305\/products\/3850615-2608828_04b296ce-8118-4c21-853f-f873af876a5c.jpg?v=1705148996","url":"https:\/\/www.besvinyl.com\/products\/844667044607","provider":"besvinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
