WTF? This track slapped me in the face. Verrrry refreshing. Didn't expect that from ae |

Somebody lay down some mexicano rap over that shit. NOW! |
||||||||

I will do this tomorrow if you remind me then. |

i got the cumbia beats to lay down... |

worst ae track ever. The egg is a pretty shameful precursor to eggshell, as well. |

I disagree with almost everything you post :) |

Agreed. I skip past that to "444"...GREATEST TRACK EVER! (Though seconded by Clipper, Arch Carrier, Cichli, Parhelic Triangle...) |

what the fuck |

1) It's extremely simplistic--just a few basic elements, neither interestingly or greatly differentiated, repeated mindlessly over and over 2) I don't like the sound of those annoying components anyway; both their pitches and timbres are grating and boring. listen to that and further, which is similar in some ways, but an infinitely superior work. by the way, saying you disagree and putting a smiley is as retarded as saying 'no offense, but..' |

this is the fucking internet. Obviously his whole statement was tongue in cheek. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
let me just clarify something: it's really the beginning of the track which kills me. It does get a little better, but hearing that really annoying crap repeat itself until 1:24 really is beyond my patience. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
thank you, kind sir, for educating me thus. |
||||||||

The smiley indicated that it was a friendly jab. A nudge. I'll take a close listen to further. |

Now that's a post that is extremely hard to decipher. |

incunabula. sorry folks i'm just not feeling it. this and most of tri repetae, garbage, and anvil vapre. everything else i love. although i probably haven't given garbage and anvil vapre a fair listen because i have it on the ++ version. |

I'm listening to 444 right now. I love how the analog kicks are varied in pitch about halfway through. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, that's a great track, I bring it up all the time and no one says anything; I guess I could be cliche and call it underrated. I fucking keep chaing the -a to -um in incunabula since that makes it an english word.. damnit |
||||||||

In`cu*nab"u*lum\, n.; pl. Incunabula. [L. incunabula cradle, birthplace, origin. See 1st In-, and Cunabula.] A work of art or of human industry, of an early epoch; especially, a book printed before a. d. 1500. Maybe changing the um into an a personifies the word incunabulum. Like some sort of early/ancient being. Bow down, for I am incunabulum, god of old stuff! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
errr i am incunabula, I mean Crap. I totally screwed my delivery on that one. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well it says pl, which means pluraly form is Incunabula, and I consider the album to be one creative unit, so plural doesn't really make much sense. But whatever, they must have had their reasons. Maybe just because it sounds cooler as -a by the way, I know that's the web1913 dictionary definition, did you use dict.org to retrieve that definion? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Maybe it's refering to the individual tracks. |

though dict.org is much better. I didnt know about it before you mentioned it. cheers |

I find lowride to be one of the more agreeable tracks on Incunabula, which I rarely listen to in its entirety anyways. I don't know what the big deal is with 444. The ones I like somewhat also are kalpol introl, basscadet, and maetl. I guess 444 to a lesser extent. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's why I said I consider it a unit, but they must have their reasons. It doesn't make sense to call each track that, because to fully satisfy the definition it must also be a 'first'; and each track can be the first, and neither are they (they had releases before that..). This is their first full length release, so referring to album is the only simple logical explanation. it is most likely due to some fucked up word play which is much more subtle.. lots of their names are like that, for instance chiastic isn't a word but chiasmic is; sometimes I wonder if that's just because chiastic sounds cooler than chiasmic, and they, being architects of sound, feel the right to change sounds of words. |

444 has a beautiful, inexorable flow, unfolding smoothly and deliberately like some spring flower, but maybe one made of silicon and electrons. lowride is a mess structurally (in addition to the points I gave above). doesn't it jar your ears when that highest pitch melody first comes in, and then repeats 4 times? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Structurally simplistic if that's what you mean. Is it too straightforward? I like the melody anyways. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No, I just mean it doesn't have any logical pattern. 444 has a very simple, but clear structure. hmm, I hate the melody. It sucks I can't say anything coherent on this topic, I guess it's time to shut up (who thinks that time was before my first post? all hands raise..) |
||||||||

|

Well its all a matter of personal taste I suppose. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It'd be nice to be able to rationalize everything though, no? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes, but impossible. Music is a subjective thing. You would get along quite well with my friend. You have that same sort of clinical analysis approach to music. |
||||||||
|

i like music if it moves me, i dont dismantle it and look at the talent put into it, because that ruins some really good stuff on incunabula. its a simple album thats simply amazing :) |

About 2 months ago I was at the farmers market in Halifax. It was incredibly busy. Three girls began to play cellos, some very soothing emoitional music. I wouldnt have bought their music or even downloaded it, but for that moment they totally had me. I was watching some girl who was trying to sell cakes. She just sort of stared forward blankly as people walked by and snubbed her cakes. I felt the music controlling my thoughts and acting as a mental filter. It was incredible and I almost cried. And not for one second was I thinking about the technicality of it. |

I just never want to be in a position where I can't explain why I like something. There are many reasons for this, and they aren't just stupid exterior stuff ("I want to prove that my opinions are the BEST"). For instance, I don't ever want to be cheated, or to cheat others, and by analyzing my tastes carefully I can be a fairer or judge.. anyway I'm boring so I'm shutting up |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if I have a reaction like that I get angry with myself (not to say that I judge your reaction, I'm just talking about.. my irrational personal taste =) ). |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

I also remember when my friend and I spent a whole day in a park on mushrooms. A mother was trying to control her son by yelling "slowdown!" rythmically every 2 seconds. Naturally, my friend and I started beatboxing to her as she kept repeating "slowdown" Boom-bap-slowdown-bap-boom Boom-bap-slowdown-bap-ba-ba Boom-chika-slowdown-chika-chika bap bap |
||||||||

|

why? because it wasn't logical? Dammit spock, you're half human for crying out loud! (I tease, I tease) Sorry. Kirk moment |
||||||||
|

you have hit the crux of the problem, friend |

Just got done listening to Lowride and now moving onto the cream of the crop, which is '444.' As for Lowride, it's my second favorite track on the album. WindWind, Lowride, and 444 are a perfect way to finish a near perfect album. I love the crazy 909 action in Lowride. |
