yeah it's definitely more immediate than either exai or elseq. gonk steady one is my fave so far, maybe even the most instantly appealing ae since untilted. when they start playing with more revealed melody and what almost sounds like feedback around the 13 minute mark, hot damn |
||||||||
|

listening to this the hell out of, I dunno maybe my poor brain has finally managed to catch up and sync with what the fellas are doing |
||||||||

I'm only at track 3 but this is fucking balls. The 12xLP boxset is ordered. They should sell a shelf also. |
||||||||
|
|

Holy shit, "carefree counter dronal"is so fucking good. Like Philip Glass on a broken CD player. |
||||||||
|
|

"going steady one" first minute is insane. I hope it goes on for the 21 min left. Crazy stuff on this session really! Incredible. |

I feel like I heard something completely different the first couple of times, now I listen to it (the same, the hell out of it) and it's wondrous. Why do I always doubt you Ae and then have to come crawling back? WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO ME? |

im glad you all speaked a normal language at the beginning of this thread. RussellDust is in top form in this thread i must say, its like this record made him step to the next level |
||||||||

sorry i thought this thread needed a bit of narration |
||||||||

I find myself listening to Elseq now and wondering how the lads stole in and replaced the files, which I've seemingly never heard before?! sneaky bastards |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yup, they do that. I love the menacing science fiction beast that is ‘l3 ctrl’, and the AI era trunk of ‘four of seven’ let loose is oh so very sweet. |

lol! Thanks. Where you thinking of commenting like one would a football match? |

actually like a narrator with an american accent into one of those old black and white movies |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|

Even better! |

I'm going to revisit one Elseq a day carefully and make friends with it. |

The main, monotonous scraping sound in gonk steady one reminds me of that walking box droid from Star Wars. Which is called Gonk, incidentally |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
This weekly release schedule makes it a lot easier to let these new songs sink in properly |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Gonk will always be "Power Droid" to me, I am sorry if that upsets Ae or anybody else. But good spot there, Nelton! I agree about the release schedule being a good thing. |

Feels like more elseq, couldn't ask for more. Loving all the tracks, even bqbqbq (reminds me of a track from |

Woah, that Boogiepop Phantom soundtrack is ace. |

Session 2 in an hour and a bit! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
For me Session 1 > elseq and the live stuff. More immediate, lots of harmonies, it’s just really pleasing. I started off by just liking two tracks, then four, and now I’m fan of them all. Starting to rem melodies as well. |

i'm afraid to look on watmm |

I agree with this post. 5 minutes. I've only gone and "worked from home" again. |
||||||||

It's on! I always work from home. |

I'm getting a pirate radio arcade game vibe here, GO AUTECHRE! GOTECHRE! |

We're listening to NTS I guess |
||||||||
|
|

locked in wìth the knowledge it's already reserved for me to gloat over and listen again. sweet |

Dub at the edge of the Abyss, I am feeling here. I'm MC-ing some improvised, Dante and Milton-inspired lyrics to it as well, if the lads want to get in touch and work on a collaboration. |
||||||||

i really would like this track's gurgling, boiling bass on big speakers |
||||||||
|
|

ooh and another one kicks in |

Autechre having fun |

Visceral, this! |

I like this ambient record on Rising High vibe. |
||||||||
|
|

This whole thing could very well turn out to be my favourite release by them. |

GONK TUF RIP MY NEIGHBORS |
||||||||
|
|

i swear they mix solely on headphones always sometimes |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think it's geared towards headphones so people DON'T RIP THEIR NEIGBOURS |
||||||||
|

Three a lot of coming together at watmm. You do get the ones who always complain though. Best one I read was that the NTS Sessions sound flat. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Rob mentioned in an interview that their music was always initially made for headphones. It’s certainly my favourite way of enjoying their stuff. Great on speakers too though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Listening to other music doesn’t work right now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's still on. do they re-play each session, like, for 24 hrs or more ? :S |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm wearing for next week's session. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I was sure it was going to be a Rasta Hat. Obara, session 2 will stream until session 3 on Thursday. Or you can also buy them digitally once the set has aired. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
For those more into their earlier stuff: |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Thanks Russ. Though that isn't to imply I'm "more into the earlier stuff". Like many of the contributors to the "chat feed" available on the NTS Session page, I am at pains to point out I don't really like their melodic or ambient pieces, and much prefer the longer, frenetic, uncompromisingly brutalist stuff. *Ae face* |

NTS is so fucking good so far. I posted that link because I find it odd that music lovers freqy, hyperflake, and umbroman1+1+1 haven’t posted in here. Ok adidasgirl did, but still. I don’t get it. This isn’t exactly hardcore music. And it encapsulates so many elements I thought these guys loved. Ah well. Mine. |

Just dropping in to say hi to the old timers. Listened to the first two sessions last night. Not sure what to make of this direction. It makes me kind of miss the days when we could expect a concise 70 minute declaration of genius on a CD every couple of years. But it's good to hear them still pushing the boundaries. Long live ae |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The direction? I feel that since Exai we’ve been leaning towards this, and that it’s far less punishing than Elseq. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'd say the direction started with the Quaristice Versions (with Oversteps now looking like a weird anomaly). From Exai onwards we've gone from 2 hours to 4 hours and now to 8 hours. Still loving it, but I'm hoping they still have an Untilted or a Confield in them. |
||||||||
|

It seems maybe sorting 70 mins of music from tons of stuff became a tedious process. I don’t mean to sound dismissive: but we’re getting more tracks and you’re complaining; are you maybe complaining about your attention span? I prefer this to Elseq already, but with Elseq I’d make albums within. An hour and a half of my fave tracks at that moment. I’m sure if they had gone through the process of selecting a CD’s worth track from NTS, you’d love it. I do get ya, man. But I do think we’re the problem, we’ve been so used to a format that we panic when it changes. |
