well its a year since their last release and they haven't
toured so there isn't much incentive. I prefer to talk about
new artists.

"draft 7.30 was a working title that never got updated. it
was originally draft 7.1, we did 29 other versions to get to
7.30. we never changed the title cos nothing seemed
appropriate and we had to call it something...." -sean booth

I've been on an Autechre bender lately. Mostly Draft 7.30
and Confield.

I don't know if I'm going to buy their Hafler trio outing or
not.

I think Ae will always exert a gravitational pull on me - so
much of their output is timeless; never stuck in a rut,
which is kinda rare; far too many artists (with a small a)
find a phormula & constantly limit themselve to weird genre
dogmas...

The big boys, Ae, AFX, SQPR, Richard Devine et al are the
ones who really drive this music forward; nu mappings...

The less Autechre is talked about the better
imo............. all thats left to say is.......... BRING
BACK THE OLD AUTECHRE..... more recent Autechre (Draft etc)
is too heavily based on technology & will inevitability die
on it's ass as technology advancess & people can make this
kind of "music" with the press of a button & a couple of
turns of a knob......... it's easily possible now, with the
right software..... go figure.

the technology is there... it's not like ae is using
anything that is different from most artists... it's there
meticulous compositional skills that set them apart...

thier meticulous compositional skills as oppossed to
technology?

"people can make this kind of "music" with the press of a
button & a couple of turns of a knob"


Okay, make me your own version of Draft 7.30. I'll expect
it'll take you about 30 seconds to press a button and turn a
knob a couple of times, so I expect to hear it then. Post
the link to it in this thread. Cheers

yes i am sure because (and now i am repeating myself...
which seems very stupid, given that the original sentiments
can be read above): autechre does NOT have access to some
kind of special technology which enables them to make music
like no one else... however, their music is relatively
unique, when one compares it with the countless
beat-oriented electronic artists out there (who have access
to the same gadgets)

Unfortunately your absymal overuse of the "&" symbol and
generally poor sentence construction allows the phrase to be
interpreted in about 600 different ways, so I will still
stand by what I said although perhaps you meant something
entirely different.

You adopt a silly attitude: you clearly feel uncomfortable
with how much they have progressed and are reacting by
wishing for a return to the cosiness of the old, familiar,
and somewhat exhausted style.

that's about the gist of it, Sam.

some people, when their favourite artists make new music
that is not to their liking, or even evolving faster than
those listeners are themselves (musically speaking), they do
not look at themselves and say "I do not like this music,
this is my problem (or not at all)", but actually try to
blame the artists in some way.

extraordinary behaviour..

hmmm.... considering all your reply consisted of You
"repeating yourself" it took a long time coming, wouldn't
you say? ;)............

I know what your saying, but you are not answering my
question, you are meerly saying that Autechre have the same
technology as other people who do not choose to create
meaningless coded music.

autechre have always laboured over the quality and output of
their sounds, to think that they've reverted to pressing
buttons and letting the computer make it's own noise is
simply childish, these are the guys that CARE about how the
music sounds, I beleive there is more soul in their newer
thickly layered stuff than there is in their older stuff,
they have progressed, they haven't gotten worse, they've
just changed their style, even their new albums sound like
pop compared to some of the other stuff you can find out
there, for fuck sake man, expand your horizons

This is exactly the point I am trying to make.......... They
havn't progressed, more like regressed...........
for example... it's like a mathematician, if he was to rely
on a calculator for every aspect of maths he'd be 1) no
longer a mathematician 2) restricted to operate within the
confines of the calculator.............. I'm not sure that I
can simplify it any more than that.
