Ok-
I thought I would go back and listen to the entire Autechre catalog while I was stuck inside during the rain today. Someone want to explain how "Blifil" on Peel Session 2 (which is probably a 6 year old track) is better than anything on this entire Untilted bullshit version leak floating around.
Look, I'm not one of those people who needed Confield, Gantz_Graf, etc. to grow on them. I fucking get it. I got it from day one. who cares. I like the newer shit much more even. But there is no way in god's name anyone can convince me that this "new" album exemplifies anything more technically proficient then what is on this little ep that came out 5 years ago.
It been a few months since I've listened to this record and there is absolutely no comparission. I'm still not convinced that what is floating around is real.
Here's to the new Autechre - purveyors of CIDM! Counter-Intelligent DillyDally Meandering

hah, as if they care about what any of us is thinking about comparisons of their new and old tracks. its all a matter of opinion, like Bukem once said.

so they can feel special and buy it because it is a hell lot more expensive to buy cds in japan :D
no i don't know in fact...
-
as for the suposed untilted leak (leak n°1) i stopped listening to it 2 weeks ago, i'll just wait for the official leak of the official cd!
i'll be buying it if it fits my taste off course...
i must say that some songs i liked quite much on that leak, wether they be ae or mira calix old songs or anything electronic, some of them had really good atmosphere.
with the memory i have i would have forgot all of it if it was bland or bad! :D:D:D

I especially like the last bit:
"Here's to the new Autechre - purveyors of CIDM! Counter-Intelligent DillyDally Meandering"
it's like one of those unfunny jokes 48-year-old women make at the end of an awful "To The Editor"-letter.

Yes, but he has a point.
It is meandering rubbish, and it does sound like EP7 and Peel Session2.

Thank you CS2x. Oh, and qrter... I have more where that came from.
As for my post I compared PeelSession2 to the bullshit leak only, nothing official. You're the ones going around saying its real, not me.
I'm just giving a reason why it might NOT be.
and yes, opinions are just that.

blifil isnt that great of a track, and every thing on untilted sounds better than it.
but i think untilted is better than draft 7.30 and peel session 2 (along with other things) both from a compositional standpoint and a productional one.
i fail to see also how "meandering" would get into this. you could claim that for just about any autechre if you looked into it enough. but id rather enjoy the tracks?

if you dont like the album because you are comparing it to earlier work...
do you think you would like it if this was the first autechre you've ever heard?

I don't mind meandering if it's good meandering which turns me on (like a lot of Autechre.)
I think it's the production that puts me off this (and put me off Draft too actually.) Confield sounded stunning, but these last two feel a little bare. Just my opinion.

i still enjoy untilted a good deal though

I listened to Confield twice last night. Nearly a masterpiece and by far my favorite album of theirs.
As for your question, if I was to hear this (or Confield) before any of their other music, or if either were their actual first releases, yes I would still enjoy them and perhaps even have greater aspirations for the future of their music (and perhaps music in general). Why? We wouldn't have to go around referencing "the old school" or how we "got there." We would just be going.
Real or not, this Untilted "leak" goes no where. But I must admit it sits still quite nicely, if thats what you're into.

how can you compare draft and confield, they are nothing like each other - just based on production alone, they are very different - confield is very polished and lush - which lets face it, any album where an artist makes it sound that polished and produces a+ sound, its going to be lush sounding. that was intentional
draft sounded more muddy, and grimey - and i think it was done intentionally also, draft was more an lp version of gantz graf, with muddy productions, more beats orientated. the tracks had dancier beats. where as confield was more of an ambient melody / unfinished beats lp.

I think I am going to stop listening to it, but continue to participate in active debates for the sake of listening to myself type. I really enjoy loud intricate percussion with near vacant (or devoid) melodies.
Hmmm... that 'sounds' familiar

It'll be weird if the real tracks are different, My brain's already associated the track titles with these mp3s and it don't like change.
