So, now that it's available as a digital download @ bleep (and therefore on SLSK, what, waffles), how do you like it?
I'm only on track nr 2 at the moment, but I'm enjoying the Beat & Noise combination.

Well I have tried to be fair and buy it from Bleep but the order has been zipping for an hour and a half. Fucking sham it is.
The album though from my first listen earlier is that it is enjoyable and definitely worth more listens.

It's got some great tracks. Theres something for everyone on this album I think. I'm glad they returned back to melodies a bit.
The drawback for me I guess is after hearing IO (wasn't fond of it on the live set but the voice is mad in this version) I was excited to hear what other untilted liveset tracks they'de have on the album, and chenc9 was not what I wanted, it was the track right after it, comes in 30:00 on the glasgow soundboard set. Was really frustrated by that.

I'm really enjoying the phat ambience of it: it seems to have a nice organic feel to it, a sort of easiness. I was half fearing harsh abstract sounds, but it's very pleasant (so far!)

I'd place it above most of the post-Confield stuff on account of all the variety. There's a lot to take in here, but it might be the best thing they've put out this century.

well i had tons of good moments with bine, uviol, pen expers, eidetic, parhelic, and in a sense i would say confield is a bit more "progressive", a bit more esoteric perhaps.
confield in a way sounds more 'big', maybe a bit more serious.

In regards to Confield, I wondered if you thought it sounded detached? emotionally, intellectually.

hm not emotionally, i dunno about intellectually cause i dont ever apply that word to music
one of my favorite moments of all time in autechres trackography is when they bring in the alien like voice-ish sound in uviol around 2 minutes in.
its very emotional and gives me strong associations to a unique world only autechre really can provide.
tankakern gives me the same type of association, when the aching type voice sound comes in.. but on tankakern at least on this audio system it sounds different still.
thats probably the best way i can explain it ;p

7/10 for me as well. i'm not sure whether i'm happy with the shorter than usual tracks. on the one hand i miss those real epic tracks. on the other hand each of these tracks have a simple recognizable theme in an almost pop-like sense. it'll probably work wonders for my ipod experience, so i guess it's a positive. and the extra cd of the limited set promises some epic tracks, of course (11 tracks in 68 mins).
and the music itself, well, it obviously needs more listens, but there are already a couple of good tracks (90101, theswere, the plc, tankakern, rale, altibizz). others are downright annoying (simmm, io).
in short: good, but not their best. lets see what the extra disc brings...

i've stayed away from all this pre-leak nonsense for awhile but i've listened to the album through a couple times and i think it is quite good. i don't care for the beginning 4 tracks that much, but once Perlence hits i dig it all the way through.
i'm more interested in the 11 track version to be honest. don't get me wrong, i think a lot of it is great sounding, but i cant shake the feeling that this album could have a smaller track selection, and that those tracks would be more developed.
and the fact that they are releasing a version of this cd that does exactly that tells me that this was an anticipated complaint, or that they felt the same way about their own release. either way, i'm glad they are releasing an 11 track version.
too early to tell how id feel about this album exactly overall, but so far so good. bit all over the place but the tracks flow and work together much better than i anticipated.

it's definately a grower - getting better every time. but still it seems a bit too abstract too me at this moment to judge. i mean draft 7.30 took me two years to fully get into it (still considered the best autechre imo)
although i have to admit that it seems more like an album containing of "sketches" rather than really logic tracks. time will show.

Yeah. I'm not sure if it's the music that gives this impression on its own or if it's what they said in the Barcode interview + what I've listened to from their recent live sets, but it does seem quite sketchy and restless. I'm also a bit disappointed, like Gwely Mernans, in what elements they chose from the live show.
I'm looking forward to the 11 extra tracks.
