their best ..? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Damn near perfect. Sweeping textures, subtle melodies, every emotion...superb. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
As well intended as this feature is it's kinda annoying :/ I haven't yet discovered the merits of Confield, still sounds like a load of bollocks at the moment To some people it always will :) |
||||||||

strongest way of showing to others what IDM is , i think. i made few cloe encounters before i could listen to it - as i remember it was 4 times :) and , when i bought it on 12" i felt difference in sound - i even found sounds which i couldnt hear on cd ! anyway - great album ...but not the best for me. |
||||||||

In months to come it could be the most abused feature ever. I personally find it fantastic! It doesn't resemble anything else or make me think that "It sounds like this" or "reminds me of that". IMO they raised the bar and set the standards high here. |

sometimes its best to stay quiet pete |

Garbage is their best As for albums, Amber |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
its thier masterpeice work although I must say I prefer Chiastic Slide, because it is alittle more accessable but when Im in the right mood, I can appriciate confield for all its brilliance |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
confield is definitely my favorite ae album. i think it's perfect front to back. i can understand why somebody wouldn't be into it the first few listens, because i don't think i really loved it until the third time i heard it. then something clicked. it's challenging, but that's why it's also groundbreaking. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it was actually one of the first AE release I listened to. I bought it at the same time as Tri Repetae++ and Chiastic Slide (thanks to everyones reccomendations on here :)) and yeah, I was into it soon after listening! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I really think CONFIELD is the best AE's album, and ep7 is the best EP. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
not only their best best album ever |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes it's good... Chiastic Slide is their best though... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
just something about Chiastic Slide... and Envane is real sweet... I still need to get some Cichlisuite though... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Would you reccomend Confield as the first album to pick up for someone new to avant - electronica ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Not that I'm new, just asking... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i admit that it is one of the most original, detailed, skillful albums ive ever heard.....but i wouldnt say it was one of the best albums ever- a factor in being 'best' is wanting to listen to it again and again, and as ahead-of-its-time as confield is, its not enjoyable on a daily basis. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ah, confield. Critically acclaimed yet shunned by listeners turned off by the harsh, chaotic sound. I love damn near every song on the album, and that's grounds for a best-of-artist selection. It flows so beautifully. The sound is quite unique: machines and nothing else. I find its best at night. Confield has a very creepy yet smooth quality, especially on tracks like parhelic triangle and uviol. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i couldnt discuss its briefly. lets just say that it was peerless. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I wonder/doubt if an artist can have more eye for detail than has been the case with confield. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
easily their best work |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what can i say other than "ae" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's good for atmospherics and taking you into other places. I still can't bear track 4 though... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i love it. pen expers can move one to tears. envane > eveything though |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
pen expers can do that cant it! i think the grouping of sim gishel, parhelic traingle and bine is a bit of genius :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
when i listen to bine i picture this huge demon like thing rising out of the ground at the beginning and sending forth millions of different creatures to rape the land. The clickity clack noises are the different creatures. That other sort of background noise is the demon communicating to them and his mouth is always wide open. Awesome. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
but my fav is eidetic casein--at four minutes eighteen seconds. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Wonderful brilliant amazing stunning incredible fantastic yeah. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I still don't get it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've been afraid to listen to it for a couple of years... but i'm thinking about putting on my "driving to work md" ..pure force might be just what i need. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
possibly autechre's best realease, took me a while and some effort to listen and fully appreciate how beutifull it is. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it lacks soul |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It was the first release I bought by them. I wouldnt say thieir best, that goes to tri-repetae ;o) but its a million times better than Draft........I just cant get into that album, you wanna talk about lacking soul... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Confield or Cornfield as some call it is my favourite Ae album. Chiastic a close second. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hehe one of my first AE experiences, I remeber what I thought about it back then....after the first one and a half listen I had this to say: |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ab album like could ten stars alone for originality... theres something that just "works" on this album... i haven't rreally heard anybody put it in to words yet |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
a good time! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

i guess i'm not the first saying this but anyway.... anvil vapre - wap64 confield - warp128 gantz graf - wap256 001000000 010000000 100000000 |

I like it a lot more than when I first heard it...but I don't think I'm on the "best ae ever" train. |

This CD isn't as bad as I remembered it to be. Pen Expers is excellent with the cut up beats and struggling melody, it's just too long. Some of the tracks are Ae's most boring though, like VI scose poise. Tracks 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7 are just the usual Ae sound mangling that got boring after EP7. These tracks go nowhere. Uviol is nice, for a while. Starts out really great, but after 4mins of the samesamesame you expect something to happen, which of course in a clever way doesn't. Same with Lentic catachresis. I guess the bottom line is: if my CD would break, would I buy or even download the music again? No. |
||||||||

confield is a great record with a perfect production it hasn't got any weak moment but every track seems to be necessary to draw the ae point of view.on the other hand tough i'm not very close to this record as to chiastic slide or amber which are less perfect but offer greater feeling and songs to me. it's almost the same feeling i have with tri repetae which is quite similar to confield in it's being well produced as well as detached. so confield for me is a record where to learn not to feel something |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
quite nice theory, but why do you show de zeros and the ones? ps you are missing one zero in all your bit strings |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this is their worst IMO,.....DRaft is even better, and Tri-Repetae-Chiastic Slide is their best. Cichlisuite is the best EP,. i consider EP7 an album..... parhelic triangle is nice, so is PARTS of cfern, pen expers, uviol, and eidetic casein... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
strong feelings for me, aswell as a new world of audio enviroment! Fantastic! Pen Expers is soo strong! Only weak point is eidetic casein with it´s ugly melody! and sometimes the last song is just too long, sometimes not... Still the best ae album as a whole! very intense, very strong! Pure feeling for me! |

i dont listen to confield that much at all. some of you probably remember i made a very detailed video for BINE (like a year ago) right now it sits at 1 minute 45 seconds long and i have not touched it in over a year lentic catachresis i dig tho, i always throw it on and headjam the tour was fresh. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
cool, can i download that video somewhere? i'd like to see it |
