well i have all 12 with the binder so i have a pretty good idea about it..there are more than 2 tracks that i like dearly, and maybe quite a bit of tracks that don't stand out but once you give it a proper listen you can see the magic in them..im not just saying this, there's a magic touch to them you either get or not :)
as for information, something that isn't widely known perhaps, some dirty little secret perhaps :)
perhaps give your opinions on why you would think this releases are 'important' for the electronic music scene..something like that perhaps :)

A full binder (including extra Analord10 picture disk) weighs approx 3.1 kg = 6.8 pounds.
Owning a full binder of Analords makes you less attractive to the opposite sex.

The Analord series proved that AFX is still very much the man
It seems to have bridged a bit of a gap between different scenes. Recent Detroit techno seems to have embraced and taken a lot of influence from these records.
The overall sound of these recordings is a beautiful thing...they have really grown on me over the last few months

Yeah it's a bit of a strange one really...because Analord definately takes massive influence from early Detroit techno.

I like the bits where it an element comes in out of synch and the whole track just stops til it drops in just right then carries on.
Whats the deal with the "field of hope"? Did rich take the pics? What the virus names? (pretty obvious "fuck off" to the internet)
Is the 11 1/2 a spinal tap reference? Is he payin respek to LFO by having them close the series?

I consider detroit techno the halfway point between IDM/Listening Techno (Whatever you want to call it) and full on dancefloor stuff. It is both forward thinking and accessible to girls hips (always a bonus). Analord echo's the early Detroit sound but seems to have kick started a bit of an analogue revival, and not just 303's...
There seems to have been quite a shift in the sound over the last year. Pre-Analord, it seemed we had reached a saturation point of bland techno and microhouse. DSP effects seemed to be the creative force rather than the artists (Supatrigga and absynth presets anyone?). The sounds, textures and form
were very digital and cold.
Analord to me seemed to be anti Microhouse, AFX didn't crop his beats and tones to decay after a nanosecond...there is a warmth and fullness to the sounds...they ring out raw and unprocessed. The tracks are built around good catchy melodies and there is a very danceable almost disco element to a lot of the drum patterns. There is a real simplicity to the sound yet the careful synth programing shows lots of detail and makes it sound so fresh.
A few months on, and the Analord copycats have been and gone, what's left are artists that have taken on board some of it's elements....Artists like Kero,Jeff Samuel, Akufen, Claro Intelecto, Luciano, Andy Stott...even heavyweights like Jeff mills are using some similar sounds in their recent releases and DJ sets. Staccato and glitchy compositions have given way to a warmer, more shuffly style.
At the end of the day trends in music are cyclical and evolving slowly. This could all be coincedence or maybe i'm making something out of nothing...It just seems that Mr James has a habbit of releasing music that brings about change quicker.

It's a bit of a stretch to state that Kero,Jeff Samuel, Akufen,
Claro Intelecto, Luciano, Andy Stott have been directly influenced by the Analord series. For a start all of those people primarily use PC's to create their music + they've all been doing the same thing for years. Analord to me is more a love affair with his machines, now that evil DSP mistress has floppy flaps, everyone's 'had her' and still continues to 'have her' even though she looks well battered.

Just an opinion...I know these are well established artists i'm talking about and it is a wee bit far fetched...but i think Analord sent that style in a less clicky direction anyway. Im probably talking bollocks.

You're not talking bollocks, I agree to an extent that he brings about change quicker, but it's usually a change from the sheep that are too scared to express themselves through their own music. It's fine being a hobbiest and emulating things but I find it hard to take serious as something personal and on its own merit.

Analord wasn't really a reference to analogue equipment but rather an analogue music making process. By that I mean hands on equipment with no screens involved for sequencing etc. Also I off loaded some stale pea's to a pea farmer at the market today. He traded me a cow and a packet of worm seeds for them.

Claiming that Analord has affected the Detroit techno scene seems a bit weird. When was the last Analord released? Just 6 months ago. You even claim that 'the Analord copycats have been and
gone'. Already? Not that I know of any scene, but how do you know that much about what's happened in just 6 months? Do you have time to listen to anything else?

a lot of the analord tracks are old, anyways. (time of creation)
"It's a bit of a stretch to state that Kero,Jeff Samuel, Akufen, Claro Intelecto, Luciano, Andy Stott have been directly influenced by the Analord series.
