Zeiss Contarex!!!

I actually misplaced this MP3 from my EP7 folder... just
found it and I'm hearing it for the first time...

OH man... this is a badass track. The groove... this has to
be my new fave Autechre track. It just DRIPS coolness.

I think this is the last Autechre track that I haven't
heard... other than really rare shit...

And it's now repeating for the fourth of fifth time! This
track is AMAZING!!!! Can't believe it was rotting in some
other folder not being listened to for no apparent reason.
:-(

The funny thing about EP7 is that it just seems different.
I think it has to do something with Frank Artwrite (sp?) or
something. Although EP7 is good the sounds themselves don't
seem as crisp as those in Confield for instance or LP5.
Have you noticed this?

I HAVE noticed that! LP5 sounds so... I can't think of a
world. Vose In, Fold4, Acroyear, 777... it just has this
''sound''... crisp, yeah, that's a good way of putting it.

Oh great :) Someone else noticed too! GO FRANK!! YOU
RULE!! Maybe the reason EP7 sounds so different is because
the masterers there at Nothing Records handle way different
music I think, no? So for them to handle something
electronic would be different than something live -- like
guitars and live drums and singers. That's my only guess.

Phob, I'm listening to that right now! It reminds me of some
weird Nazi propaganda guy rambling on at light speed and
jerking around like a robot while people look on
confused...

Autechre gives me weird images in my head... :-/

I think Zeiss Contarex is Ae's 'sexiest' song, if you can
imagine that at all...

Just heard ZC...pretty darn sexy. Now we just need some Ae
mixed 'bow wow chicka wow wow' guitars in there...maybe not.

it sounds like an AM radio station and yes the beat is
tight.
makes me think of an airport destroyed and infested by alien

you guys have good imaginations about Ae's tracks :)
Amazing.

One big vision I had (not A vision just an imagination) was
with Vletrmx21. What seemed to happen was that time stopped
and all matter including color started to vibrate...even
time it self within the air. No drugs were used. It
continued till everything vibrated more and more without me
myself being included in the uproaring. I was only standing
within, watching. I cried.

hey Amon i have noticed that ep7 sounds dirtier than mose Ae
eps. maybe that was deliberate.

I suppose so. But I don't know why. I think it would have
sounded better if it were cleaner.

Ophex, Zeiss Contarex is and has been my favorite Ae track
for a long time. Absolutely amazing amazing amazing.

Other favorite tracks include Tewe from Chiastic slide, and
(track seven) from confield (forget the name).

Amonbrune, EP7 was masterd by Warp Records people. Nothing
Records only distributed EP7. They also left out the secret
track if I am not mistaken.

Well, then I guess EP7 was meant to sound different.

Yeah, it's a pretty sexy song... easily makes it onto my
list of ''Songs to Fuck to!''... not like that's going to
happen anytime soon... gyarg!

ep7s is prolly their best...

i think some of the dirty sound is from weird compression
based effects, because of the way it seems to move with the
song.

like outpt, i think that's what it has to be

or maybe it's just noise interpolation or something, who

i kind of "hated" ep7 for a long time. i forgot about it
for a couple of months, and when i put it back on, WHAM! it
hit me like a ton of bricks!

it's just one of those records.

I'm listening to it now on CD. Weird, the track-list in
Winamp says 'Autchere'

Well fuck me. Here I was thinking all along it was
Autechre..

I disliked Autechre and thought they were overrated... now I
listen to them more than anyone else... they really grow on
you! So does their albums. I'm listening to EP7 for about
the 45th time in the last two days. Left Bank, Ccec, Zeiss,
Outpt, this is just TOO good...

I wonder what it means in English though. I can't really
make out what she says. Mind you, even if I could I
wouldn't know cause I don't know much french.

What's everyone's favorite Autechre album? Mine's EP7, as of
now... but shit like that changes daily, as we all know.
Maybe tomorrow it'll be Confield again... :-/
