Hello everyone! Another old timer dropping in. Nice to see some enthusiastic ppl still hanging around here. Just wanted to say I think these first two sessions are absolutely amazing. Seeing the onesix live show in Stockholm was a very strong experience, probably the best gig I’ve ever seen, and I remember hoping that they would go more in that direction, and it feels like they have. The second session is even better than the first, but I might change my mind about that of course. Found that comment about them breaking in and replacing your ae mp3s amusing, happened to me so many times. |

Hey Gonzola, good to see you. Did you know that the new user registration and password recovery are both broken? We're down to about ten regulars. Do you know if there's anyone who remembers how to program the board, and if so could you get word to them? TIA |

Hi fleetmouse! I didn’t know of those problems. Phobs and tunemx knows how to program the board for sure, I never knew how to code unfortunately. I can send him a message and ask him tho. |

Awesome, thank u! |

I remember in the old days of the CD era that I wished some ae tracks would just go on and on, but of course there’s only so much room on a CD. And now I sometimes wish they would deliver a nice, compact track with a little bit more composition to it! Actually dummy casual pt 2 fits that bill, what a great bonkers track. Anyway, still I much prefer this new format. 2 more sessions to go! |

Don't think it's to do with my attention span, I've been through both sessions in a sitting twice. It's awesome stuff, but clearly not as focused. I wouldn't say I'm complaining, there is absolutely no reason to complain. Just saying I hope there is still material in the future with all the fat trimmed off - 'less is more' with the near-perfection of Draft etc. |

True. I wish XMAS_EVET 10 was an hour long with the ending stretched out for 50 mins. Grass is always greener I suppose. |

What's with this reasonable talk? What's with this gentlemanly "agree to disagree" bit? Where's the withering "The 21st Century must be a lonely and bewildering place for you, you retrograde old fuck. You clearly never understood Autechre, ever! This music isn't for you. Wake up, you're dead!"? You know, that sort of thing. |

IMO they have built interactive music software that is so advanced it's like a gundam mech suit and they can spend all day demolishing buildings, so why would they want to edit that down |

i am Officially Pumped for the next lot of punishing riddimz |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Let me be at pains to point out that I'm all about punishing riddimz and if I get one whiff of a melody, a repeated motif or an ambient track, I'll put my boot through my router and send NTS the bill. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
RuzzDust (and indeed anybody), tell me your edited down elseq album, please. I dip in and out of it but, post-NTS, it's just not in the same league (at the moment that is. We all know with Ae we'll go back in 5 years and go "AHHHHhhhhhh, I get it *now*") |

1. feed1 2. pendulu hv moda 3. mesh cinereal 4. acdwn2 5. freulaeux 6. foldfree casual Length: 1:21:11 (damn, just over) |

Thank you. I'll lock in that playlist and give it a go. |
||||||||

I ageee with 4 tracks. Will text mine to you, out of spite. |

Only starts working when the beat kicks in, worth a watch. |

My selection from some time ago: 1. pendulu hv moda 2. foldfree casual 3. latentcall 4. spTh 5. freulaeux If the whole thing was six hours of freulaeux I would've been happy too! But yeah I guess those are the more melodic tracks, so be warned |

I was listening to elyc6 0nset from elseq 2 the other day. Such a bewildering track! It starts out all right, bobbin' along nicely, but then near the end my brain fails and I just want to listen to Shania Twain |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hehe thanks for that, I'll give that list a go. I am of course joking about not liking the melodic or ambient works. I was just clumsily parodying the kind of comment you see where people feel they really have to let you know that they like The Difficult Music and they've no time for The Easy Music. RD - That Video - it's really good, goes really well. IT KIND OF MAKES SENSE. |

|
|

| |||||||||
|

Thanks! |

Off to a great start |

I am now listening to the premier of the new Ae album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm not be funny though but, imagine playing this to a black person. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
They be like "aaaaaah sheeeeeeeit" |
||||||||
|
|

Talk about the fucking side-eye. |

Waiting for the WAVs after the show to listen, but it’s fun reading comments on here and at the place we shall not name. So far it’s more “clubby”, yes? I dunno because suddenly after 15 everyone over there started going “uh oh” “oh fuck” “fuck me” etc. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The track on now is definitely groovy |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Punishing riddimz, right |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I meant they reacted like that after 15 Minutes of apparent clubby tracks. I ant wait to listen, penexpers! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
This particular track is pretty nasty. Dark. I wouldn't really describe the first half hour as clubby |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"Clubby"... aka "This isn't difficult enough for me". |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
*This* is the best thing they've ever done. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
This here should've been the Fun Factory theme song |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ok, fifty minute mark you posted this. *aexcited* |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah bar a few tracks I wouldn’t ever describe them as clubby. As signeduptolol pointed out, it’s probbaly showing off. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ah yes, well the first track was definitely very mellow |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I can't help but feel all this *mellow* stuff is there to piss off the reddit/watmm hardcore, god fuck them. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Some of them, not all, far from it, come across as a it arrogant. They’re far less miserable than us in general though, enjoy events, and take part. Still not signing up though. I remember ages ago they did a mock xlt thread, there was a qrter, a dog belch, I think earhtleakage, hobbes etc and they would mimick our style. I was honoured really. |

7. latentcall [I know you just forgot to mention that one, right ?] it's an ace track, there were days when I used to listen to it a few times in a row. it worked especially awesome while cycling to work midday |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thanks for the info But I do think we’re the problem, we’ve been so used to a format that we panic when it changes. yup, that's it and IF in 2 years time they release just a 15 minutes EP and nothing else ae listeners will go "whaaaaa.....???" lol yeah maybe just mixing and creating and coding is so much fun compared to the tedious process of "editing and selecting for a 1 or 2 cd release" that they decided they just don't have time and/or heart for it. they just do what they want. you like it ? good. you don't ? whatever. that's artistic freedom of some sort. as long as it pays the bills and they don't have to get a regular job it's great. besides what's the difference if I loop a fav ae track that is 5 minutes long for 4 or 5 times ? these days Ae do the job for me, they just release 15, 20, 30+ minutes long tracks lol THANKS AE. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this way of doing things gives the tracks time to breathe and grow without having to conform to a rigid 80 minutes. it's fucking great. listening to the catchup stream right now, sounds like ae deconstructing chiptune. the track before that with the beatless drone might be my fave yet of these sessions |
