when i got draft 7.30 on monday, i put it on and thought "for fucks sake, another confield." after the first listen i put it on once more and thought exactly the same.
so today i decided that there must be some sense to it somewhere, like with confield. i dug out everything that i own by autechre, which is 7 albums and about 8 singles/eps and started from the start. i've just finished listening to draft 7.30 again and it makes A LOT more sense! i think the key to this kind of stuff is to build yourself up to it. i don't normally EVER listen to any of my autechre stuff, but i reckon the last 2 albums will make more sense to me after doing all this.
but at the same time the book i was reading (1984) will always be associated with crunchy beats, and i've got a headache coming on!

don't you just love associating things (books, new toys, experiences) with music?
draft is wonderful, it got me back into the listen-to-autechre mood.
and i ordered iss:sa today!

I don't get what all this talk about understanding the music comes from. To me it is just sounds and patterns that I either like or I don't like. Perhaps someone could explain to me exactly what they end up "understanding" or "making sense of" in the music?

btw I am not having a go at you bob I have saw it countless times on this board when people are talking about Ae. it gives me the impression you are really trying to like something that you currently don't like.
