The key to understand Ae's music (includes philosophy)

Autechre's music is somewhat a paradox within the sphere of
the "music" itself. It is sufficient in the form it is
created (yes, even Draft 7.30), yet demands the audience
fills the gaps within the repetitious music with their own
minds; their own imaginations. The convoluted yet immensely
subtle variations that concur within a fractured second of
the triangulated system of an Autechre piece can only be
imagined by aliens from another world; or indeed, gods
themselves-for Autechre's music is so immensely revelatory
that mere human minds cannot grasp the spiritual and
mathematically complex hidden meanings hidden therin.
Autechre put on a front of being ex-graffiti kids who made
music "by accident" and who have "no musical
backround"-indeed, such nonsense is a front for the
increadable intelligence that they have put into their
music. The truth is, they are mathematicians and are
classically trained to the highest degree; their music is
full of neo-classical references and mathematical gems that
only the brightest of minds could understand. They are gods,
and their music is a reflection of our own conciousness
flucctuating through remote systems, bypassed into infinate
tranquility whilst being shot into the outer realms of the
universe, into the transparent void of absolute zero.

Deepness is no subsititute for musical enjoyment, pure and
simple, although I see what your saying.

Ulysses by James Joyce is "deep" but there's no way I could
read the whole thing, sometimes you just have to trust your
instincts.

"the spiritual and

I just interpret it as 2 guys pissing around in a studio
making weird music, but I like to be unpretentious.

The Key To Understand André Rieu's Music (Includes Great
Philosophy, Science and Art of Writing)


André Rieu is the almighty God of the Magical Universe of
that Great Art that is Music. He creates a multipolar new
dimension of Sound and Harmony into the five-dimensional
extra-spheres of Revelating Romantism to the people of the
world. The immense and complex artefacts of André Rieu's
Music, as well as his Godly Smile and Mighty Friendly
Attitude, elevates Him undoubtedly to the rank of Music
Divinity. His Music cannot be appreciated enough by mere
humans, and only the gifted ones can hope to approach a tiny
part of his Grand Masterpieces's Celestial Beauty and
Complexity. The Truth is, André Rieu is deep in everyone's
and everything's heart, and people should search deeply for
the Truth and the God in themselves, then find the Pure
Beauty, Imagination, Intelligence and Love of André Rieu.
Every time you Imagine something Good, this Good is André
Rieu, for André Rieu is the incarnation of Romantism and
Goodness and Creation. Every time you Love someone or
somebody, that something or somebody is an incarnation of
André Rieu. Every time you Masturbate, André Rieu is the
Grand Wankshot created by that Great Physical Love of
Yourself and it is Beautiful and Good. André Rieu is
Salvation. André Rieu is Love. André Rieu The Greatest
Thing Of The Universe, and that thing is Romantism. We will
all access to André Rieu's Romantic Paradise once we find
out the Great Truth and Revelation Of The Universe. All Hail
André Rieu!!!

The CS2x was what I used to create Confield on. I played it
through my Sony Vaio laptop and added some chorus and viola!
It was created.

What are these hidden messages, if they're so fucking
interesting why are they hidden? I never understand what's
the point of references, like with BOC, if you listen to it
upside down and back to front it gives one of the names of
someone that knew someone in the Waco massacre. Oh right, so
by it being hidden, this now takes on extra significance
does it? Rather than just saying it, which would have been,
what? I mean, what, if you haven't anything interesting to
say, stapling on some fucking "references" doesn't make you
interesting. And if you forgot how to write tunes, Autechre,
I'd suggest giving up the fucking music lark. Honestly,
these people.

I'm sorry you don't understand why I put hidden messages in
my music.

Alas, the world of art never learns. You know, all the great
composers of times gone past where thought of as bad in
their day; only now are they truly appreciated for their
fabulous achievements.

Shakespeare did irony really well in Hamlet. For example,
Hamlet wants to fuck his mother, and yet she is fucking his
brother. How ironic!

emotional connection... if that's not there I won't really
enjoy it...

so, that being said, while I think Autechre have recorded
some of the most beautiful music I've ever heard, I will
also be the first to say they've recorded a lot of shit
too... but I guess with a group like Autechre that tried to
push the boundries of sound, that's expected...
