Double LP version. Gatefold sleeve. Includes download code. Over the course of a staggering 78 minutes, big things happen on Jams, Urban Homes's monumental sophomore album. The 13 songs on Jams go back to recordings of years of communal, MIDI- and hardware-based jam sessions which, over three years, were painstakingly discarded, condensed, reconstructed and provided with occasional guest vocals by Hanitra Wagner (Oracles, Die Heiterkeit). On Jams, Benjamin Riedl, Stephan Weinand and Oliver Bersin explore a history of dance music that is retraced in the 13 tracks. The seemingly clear cut references in titles such as "Verdub Lang Her (Stripped Down Killer Dub Jam)", "Blue Note Jam" or "As High Acid Can Get (Acid Jam)", however, are not to be taken as letters of intent, but - despite the playful handling of genre conventions and clichés - as homages to the immaterial architecture of the club: the atmosphere, the vibe, the jam. In it's rich texture, the dramatic composition of Jams reconstructs the resonance space of an excessive, foggy, and steamy night at the club, thereby approaching it's point of interest. Despite the clear club compatibility (each of the 13 tracks will work on a dancefloor worth it's salt), Urban Homes do not shy away from sticky harmonic arrangements and melodies that are bound to be called "pop". They do however, and this is one of the points of this great album, avoid any overarching narrative of organic-ness or authenticity which might refer the record to a context of "indie" music. Unlike the acclaimed and award-winning debut Centres (2013), which wore the socialization of the (previously four) Urban Homes on it's sleeve, this is rootless, nomadic music that is in the most beautiful sense "out there". So far out there, in fact, that gurus such as Pharaoh Sanders or Sun Ra can be made out through the ever-present fog (see titles such as "4/20 Jam" or "Summer Rolls (Midnight Munchies Jam)" for reference). What seems so effortless, casual and relaxed over the entire run time, is in fact merely evidence of the band's musical mastery and precision. Mixed by Jan-Philipp Janzen (Von Spar) at Dumbo Studios. Mastered by Cem Oral at Jammin Masters. Sonja Deffner (Die Heiterkeit, Jason & Theodor) is responsible for the stunning artwork.

my dogs love these! their new constant companions!
When I first opened the box and saw these three octopuses, I thought they looked a little anemic, but looks can definitely be deceiving because my dogs love them. We try to be really careful about the toys we buy because one of my dogs swallowed a squeaker in the past and had to have surgery. Ever since then, we've been really mindful about what toys they have and making sure we're watching them when they play. I have to say these have been great. My dogs carry them everywhere. They take them outside, bring them back inside, and I've had to wash them multiple times because they are so loved and so well used. For some reason, my dog who is a constant chewer and destroyer of toys has not chewed through these. They feel relatively tough, especially considering how lightweight they are. They do have a squeaker inside, but they also have something crinkly in them that makes noise when the dogs are running around and playing with them. My dogs seem to love that. My dogs also look super cute running around with the octopus legs hanging out of their mouths. Fun product!

Great toys for dogs
I received these octopus toys for my dog because he destroys stuffed toys almost immediately, and I liked that these were no stuffing. They ended up being a big hit right away. The squeakers kept him interested longer than most toys do, and he loves shaking the octopus legs around while playing. Since there’s no stuffing inside, I don’t have to worry about coming home to fluff all over the house, which has honestly been a huge plus. The toys are lightweight and easy for him to carry around, and they work well for toss and fetch too. I have a medium sized dog, but I could see these being fun for smaller or even larger dogs depending on how aggressive of a chewer they are. They seem decently durable for plush toys. Mine have held up better than expected considering how rough my dog can be with his toys. The stitching has stayed together pretty well so far. I also like that the pack comes with three because one is always getting hidden somewhere in the house. It’s nice having extras ready to go. These have definitely helped keep my dog entertained and busy, especially on days when we can’t spend as much time outside.

Durable Octopus Toys That Have Survived My Little Destroyer
Durable Octopus Toys That Have Survived My Little Destroyer These octopus dog toys have been a big hit with our Boston Terrier, who treats every toy like a personal mission to destroy it as quickly as possible. Surprisingly, these have held up really well so far. The toys arrived a little flattened and crinkled because they were packed into a fairly small box, but once opened they shaped up fine and still looked good. The material feels durable, and I like that there’s no stuffing inside to explode all over the house once the chewing begins. As expected, the squeakers only survived a few minutes, but honestly that’s normal in our house and not really a knock on the toy itself. The important part is the toys themselves have not been ripped apart yet, which is impressive for our aggressive little chewer. The colors are bright, the faces are funny, and the overall construction feels stronger than a lot of plush-style dog toys we’ve tried before. At the time of my review, these feel like a great value for a durable and entertaining 3-pack. Overall, a fun and surprisingly tough set of dog toys that have managed to survive longer than most in our house.

No Foam, No Stuffing, No Mess. Just a Dog Toy that the Dog Loves
I received this product at no cost through the Amazon Vine program in exchange for my review. Our dog took to this right away, which is the most important review criterion as far as we are concerned. The crinkly noise is a big hit with him, consistent with similar toys we have given him in the past that he has gravitated toward. The standout practical feature for anyone tired of cleaning up after destructive chewers is the absence of foam or stuffing. If you have spent any time finding bits of foam or clumps of stuffing scattered under your furniture you will immediately appreciate this design choice. Less mess without sacrificing the sensory experience the dog is after. The long legs are also worth mentioning as a functional design element. Our dog clearly enjoys the feedback from shaking his toys and the legs deliver exactly that kind of satisfying resistance and movement. A well thought out toy that works for the dog and makes life a little easier for the owner. I do have a nagging concern about a generic/no name brand, but I do recognize that many if not all of the dog toys we have are also made in the same region and maybe even the same factory.
