lately i can't get enough of Cap.IV so what's your opinion on these three individual tracks? i'd say: Gantz Graf: Great track, liked it even more after i saw the video, that helped me comprehend the structure of the track Dial: Weakest of the three, kinda boring after a while Cap.IV: Best track on this EP! I put this one at the end of an IDM compilation, the beats/percussion at the end really push it to a climax |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I only really fell in love with track 3.... The first two havent grown on me. Yeah near the end of that track, your mind is dizzy. |
||||||||

gantz graf is a wonderful track. it's very short, but it is like telling a long history. after listening to it you think: wow, that was about 6 minutes long ! awesome track. i even like it so much that i mislike the video :) cap. IV : hm couldn't get into so much. dial : this is a wonderful track. there are some really cool effects in it. they are described in an older topic called " shepard tones " try it out |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
try it out ok, if you'll try capIV out again :) deal? :P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the video really did help me understand the track - it grows on you though it will take a while before it'll get a classic status imo.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
right now i listen to it. hm, i have to say that i listen to the whole thing the first time... hey, i like it ... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha good to hear :) i can't listen to Dial right now, i'm at work i could download it here, but i don't think my colleagues would appreciate it very much :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Gantz Graf is superb in my view. I really admire how accesible they can make something so unlistenable. Track 3 and 2 are my favorites. I always listen to them like they're one track tho... |

Co-existence: going for the Aphex Twin laptop set in Bergen, yes? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Definitely! And you? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Blir Oslo på meg. Blir fett! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ja det blir dødsfett! Og så får vi jo med oss Merzbow også, eller Satans Tornado som han kaller seg denne gangen.. Har du sett han live før? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Har ikke sett noen av dem live, så dette blir litt av en opplevelse. Kjipt av Blæst her i Trondheim har blit så udugelige. De hadde jo samarbeid med Blå og Agora før, men nå er klubblivet labert her i byen. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ja, det er kjipt at Club Elekra la inn årene... Vi merker det godt her i Bergen også, men her er det jo så mange klubber så jeg kan ikke tenke meg at det er så ille som i Trondheim.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Det skulle være Club Elektra... |
||||||||

woowoowoow!!! what's all this norweigan language here?! this is a thread 'bout gantz graf dudes :) focusss :P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i recognized some merzbow! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Sorry about that... we are too excited to speak english; Aphex is coming!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes, Merzbow is coming to Norway too, as Satans Tornado! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Satanstornade? that's Masami Akita (Merzbow) and Russel Haswell right? i've got that Warp666, like it more than Merzbow (solo) stuff |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Havent heard that one yet. How does it differ from his solo stuff? More beats? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well although i haven't heard that much merzbow, i'd say it's a bit more accesible maybe, still noise, less chaotic maybe |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
'still noise' should've been: still noise |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i love this noisey ep !! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
gantz graf was utterly noise/industrial until i saw the video, now it's like a harmonic masterpeice. vivid imagry + time = = win |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its a win win situation with the cd + dvd |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
track 3, favorite track 1, very good track 2, WEAK... there's nothing i like abou tit, nothing stands out. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
gantz graf is a fucking genius work of sound i cannot even describe it to people whom i want to play it for |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like the video with the track, but the track alone I thought was shit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
gantz graf is a great listen, never seen the video but still like the song alot. dial - ties with gantz graf as the best song on the ep cap.iv is OK |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i like this shit too. i like all of it, but i don't understand why so few of you like dial. it's in short, a great mindfuck if you listen to it at high volume and listen to it through without forwarding. Also, im norwegian and im also going to see richard in oslo. i don't like merzbow though. |

In order of preference: CAP I.V. sounds like a recording taken from a lost space station to me. Some kind of intelligent form is singing or crying at the beginning. As the track builds, we can hear a meteorite rain bouncing on the cockpit and I can imagine outside the infinity of the expanding universe. Gantz graf is more abstract - I see that more like a musical evocation of a quantum computer. Information qbits merging and splitting, non-linear parallel operations trigerring sounds. Dial is the weakest song IMO - I don't know why but it reminds me a Prodigy song... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think you have to have a very strong visual imagination to able to listen to the likes of the album in the first place but dial is great. the funkiest thing ive heard since R.D's lipswitch |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i was blown away by cap. iv when i heard it for the first time |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
iron lung! you're brian fellows! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i didn't care much for dial at first, but it's got one hell of a groove gantz graf is always nice with the video |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

hehehe I'M GONNA SHOOT THAT PARROT'S EYES OUT WITH MY BEEBEE GUN! |

It's an active process - that doesn't work when I'm trying let my brain do the job for me. In the other hand I'm not able to actually describe with words the different images I'm playing with - sometimes they are only partial or multiple. For cap iv for example I started to see little dots fading away, creating clusters and stuffs - then as I imagined that it was meteorites they took the form of small irregular balls and started to bounce on a window. Behind the window that you (me) listening to the track. |

|
|
oh shit CAP4 IS CRAZY SHIT |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I also imagine BBB as being the sound of the silver balls of the silver surfer bouncing together. Richard devine does it too for me: kepter = battle field in 5003 on jupiter |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yep richard devine is good at that shit too people who are imaginative like you+me should make videos ;D |

hey what was with the checkyslovakian i just experienced scrolling down this page |
||||||||

dial is maniacal, like a lumbering runaway freight train with the power of a tornado, starting to crumble from it's own momentum and shooting off showers of electrified pieces of itself, yet still maintaining a constant speed and structural stability, never slowing, like a machine posessed. it almost falters in the first half of the song, but by the second half it finds its rhythm and maintains it. a driving, MANIACAL ASS rhythm made up of the beat and the constant shepards tone stabs! i love it |

let's create a thread called *** best verbal explanation of an autechre song *** Is bombastic the correct term ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
gantz graf is to me the most exciting ae track. maybe my fav. cap iv is pretty nice, followed by dial. i think i need to listen to these more though. *sets up the ep in a playlist* |

01: Can't stand it; insufferable noise that isn't even the sort of noise fans of industrial music can dig. It's just absolute noise for the sake of noise. It's distortion just to say, "it's distorted." It's purposeless, uninspired sampling with sequencing that, despite being completley random, is very repetitive sounding. 02: Another bunch of crap. The ten note melody that doesn't change is irritating, the fast tempo clicking is predictable, and the whole song sounds like different instruments playing different songs. nothing goes together or contrasts enough--it's in a grey area. 03: Cap. IV despite being my favorite, is completely predictable. It starts out all right then is sped up with some beats added, subtracted, replaced, at a few points. It's long, it's very conventional (for Autechre) and it's just a very dissappointing departure from the control exhibited on records like Confield and even EP7. |

something you play once then never feel like playing again. |

01 is not noise at all. listen and it's so obviously not like "hey sean, twist that distortion knob." keep in mind i thought tri rep was noise for the sake of noise the first time i heard it. i think gg is just wonderful. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and it's only repetative in the sense that a jimihendrix guitar solo is repetative. "he's still doing the guitar thing!" not at all random either. just listen! it's obviously a bit of a journey, whether you enjoy it or not. |
