autechre who? da fuck are these assholes?
they can exai in my ass.

mother fucker be talking about some autechre and sheeit. autechre my foot in yr mouth.

whatever. blunts, acid tabs and shrooms.

sharp, ultra-crystalline sound shapes materialising in the room.. stilted rhythms and wild, shuddering reverb. it's got synesthetic qualities, and melody. this is some of the finest sound art available nowadays

Agreed. But I've only listened to part 1. Have you hear the whole thing?

Who the fuck releases what essentially amounts to FIVE new albums at once? This is fucking crazy. But I love it.

Somebody who makes albums by pressing go on a random sequence generator.

Aren't you the guy who oncr said that every time you clicked on a link I recommended you stopped paying attention immediately because all you heard was bleep/bloop/synth?

What the hell are you even doing in an Autechre thread?!

You said you always hold onto hope that it won't be some "electronic garbage"'or whatever, and are always disappointed. Well, if you don't know Autechre, your head's missing. Stop your trolling, you whiny little toilet.

I don't think I would have said that, I might have said something about you enjoying the sound of your own typing though.
I liked Autechre, LP5 and bascadet in particular. But they lost the plot big time with Confield,

Confield's my favourite Autechre album

Draft 7.30 is a big favorite.. honing the unearthly textures, and approximating the sonic characteristics of a wooden sea vessel (Xylin Room)

I do sort of miss that approach they were applying into the early-mid 00s where there was something more architectural to their sound, I guess? as if they were working with similar sounds/melodic structures/constructions but testing them texturally and through the prism of different spatial concepts, obviously reaching a peak in draft (untilted with a very dry, live sound, confield something slightly more evasive in description but hitting that distinction between hyper-mechanical and striking naturalism). the recent output (oversteps and thereafter) seems quite insular, like they've worked out what they want to be doing and are burrowing deeper and deeper into that. they've achieved the sound and are now rolling all these different angles together into a hulking mass; similar atmospheres but progressively eradicating the notions of structure and overall presentation. they seem to be at the end of their trajectory and know exactly what they're doing and have the means of achieving it, like the last 25 years have been a process of discovery and they've finally worked out how to distill their collaboration into discrete parts. magnificent to watch them going at it the way they are right now.

I managed about 40 seconds before skipping through and finally turning off. meh.

Anvil Vapre EP was the pinnacle for me, well half of it....all of two songs.

^ this.

Really though, I love it. I love Elseq. I'm not sure I prefer it to Exai necessarily, but I don't think the comparison really needs to be made. It's very much its own thing.

The NTS Sessions say hi.

Thanks for reminding me to listen to Exai again. I like them, but struggle to recall most albums in my mind.

The best thing AE have ever released is the Anti EP, but I also love Amber* and AE_LIVE.




*Thanks a lot, free Internet Archive downloads.

Okay, I'm relistening to Exai and it is phenomenal.

That sounds a lot like Rob Instigator kind of talk.
