autechre made me listen to sounds of life in a different
way...

i think they let me hear the sounds of everyday life in
sequence, and hear patterns that i would have never been
able to recognize any other way...

or was that the 5 hits of acid i dropped an hour before

:þ

I keep hearing squelch type noises in æ tracks. It's really
weird.

I agree ziggomatic, way down there.

Confield was 'here we have our concepts, now do [this] to it
and it is changed/shifted/distorted/etc.'

Draft seems more built from those 'glitches' into a cohesive
whole, reverse engineered. But when I 'listen' to Draft, I
get most enjoyment when I am listening to it, and doing
nothing else. Like I don't really like to just put it on
and go do something around my room. I have to sit there and
listen to it, but it is great.

Also, while intellectualizing it, I often follow a single
sound, but 'peripherally' (as someone I think said before)
listen to how the other sounds are reacting to that sound.
The intricate action/reactions are insane. It's a good
album.

My love for Auteche has dimmed recently, but I know it'll
shoot back up when they release something else. I know I can
always count on an Autechre release to secretly surprise me,
without straying too far from what I expect from them.

It might not be hip to pimp them within IDM circles...
they're a bit too big for their britches now, I guess. But
they've earned it, they're the cream of the crop as far as
I'm concerned.

I LIEK SEAN AND ROB

''they're a bit too big for their britches now''

That was a weird choice of words. That implies something
that I didn't mean to imply, I think. Oh well, I know what I
meant and that's all that counts.

yeah, i dont like how we're expected to only like them when
they arent considered by most to be the jam, but now that
they are considered up there with twin, its smack-talkin
time...

ae keep it together.

for my dollar, i dont hear sounds form other "idm"ers like i
do from ae. completely creative and original.

you cant say that about most electronic nowadays.

just like to say that im really relating to draft tonight.

im having one of those turns where it sounds different
again.

it sounds lonely, spacious, unobliging, honest, and very in
my face :)

Pump up the volume!!!

draft
its really two small lps / eps stuck together, i think this
would be the only reason why it would "seem" less than
confield, but imo draft is better. the first 5 tracks on
draft are simply the best they have ever done as a whole
unit. Xylin and IV VV IV VV VIII are like twin brothers,
6ie.cr screams, and tapr is like bine but happy, Surripere
is genious. the first 5 tracks are the true tracks that go
together, and everything else has been slapped on the end,
they go, but they also are great separate.
confield
when i first got this and really tried to wrap my head
around it, i saw it as being a very ambient album. without
sounding like an idiot, i define ambient as more focused on
the sound of the music, rather than the patterns or beatS.
it has more atmosphere and space, than pattern. it is not
like devines aleamapper, but it could be a distant cousin to
it or SAW II. but there is definetly a concrete-ness to it.
buts its almost as if the concrete only adds to the
ambience, likes the beats and patterns are there but they
are not complete so you really cant take them as beats, they
are just there for the atmosphere.
