Autechre: L Event EP

I find it joyless and unlistenable :( Maybe if it was played
at punishing volume with Oscikslisk in front of my holding
his minidisc, I don't know.

I feel bad about saying that now, one should always be
grateful that Autechre are giving us these sounds and
doubtless it'll fall into place for me after giving it the
attention it deserves. I will try again. One should never
comment on Ae after only a couple of cursory listens. Sorry
Sean and Rob for doubting you, again. I DON'T DESERVE
YOU!

I should probably get a proper stereo and not play
everything off my laptop through my bass guitar amp. I've
probably never heard anything that anyone would actually
recognise as being by Ae at all ever - just some low
rumbling. Which I, you know, enjoy.

I am listening to it now properly. I promise,
properly!

This is a tonic against mediocrity. It's actually very good.
I suppose with Ae there's always this level of expectation
of what the new stuff is going to sound like, and because of
their very nature, they are going to confound and confuse on
initial exposure. But then you come round to them, and it's
awesome - like always.

Untilted took me YEARS to enjoy. YEARS. But now I do
and I am happy.

tac Lacora is a shifting, hot pants wearing, fucking epic.
It makes me want to run around Finsbury Park wearing nothing
but a High Visibility tabbard.

I guess what I was hoping for was another "Move of ten" -
but of course they're not going to deliver "what I want",
and thank god. Though I did ask them for Amber II and they
served up Oversteps. And thank god.

I'm listening to CTI's "Elemental 7" now, today is going to
be creative, mixed with black drugs and arcane, slippery sex
magik.

Just gave those Exai leftovers a second listen, thru AKG
K-701.

Overall, it is a bit boring and all the tracks sound the
same.
A2 and B2 are better than A1 and B1 (this one sucks, except
for the beginning imho). B2 could have been on Move of Ten.

The mood is cold and sinister, especially on the first
side.

Nothing special goin' on in the background, though it was
better on phones than on speakers.

Should be a bit of a grower, but I'm not expecting it to be
a strong EP.

I get all kinds of scifi imagery listening to this. Best new
Autechre in many years, if you ask me. So much going on, so
much detail. Especially 2 & 3.

This crazy man at the park gave me some acid. Had been over
15 years and i thought a night in would be fun. Get thinking
and stuff. After deciding not to (i was scared) i eventually
put the cans on and played the eP. It was easier to make
sense of it all but was a right headrush. Melodies
thankfully sticking out. Details clear.
Best release in a while. I like the fact it's 4 tracks as it
makes it mine quicker.

(as for the acid, i came up with some good stories. I don't
recommend watching criminal minds though)

I get sci-fi imagery from this, in a contemplative Trakovsky
"Solaris" stylee - I like the trick they pull of on this and
a track or two on Exai that sounds like air / gas escaping /
being introduced or some kind of grand vista coming in to
view.

Lovely stuff, and digging the shit out of "newfound"

BONUS UNSOLICITED OPINION This does remind me a bit
of Reload's "A Collection of Short Stories"

Sadist, did you listen to this one?

Horsefactory?

Track 4 is still in my brain, though I haven't listened to
it for a few days. The proof of a good track, probably.

It's very satisfying to listen to, but I have to admit I
listen to a lot decomposed noise and even if I don't have
any tunes in my car I prefer to listen to static then to
tune into a station, it helps me focus. So you've got a very
wide net to impress me

i dig it a lot. i listened to all of exai today and after
two hours was a little hungry for more. l-event fit the bill
perfectly. sorta glad they didnt release it together with
it, but it fit with that perfectly. i think if they woulda
put keyosc or whatever that japanese import track and one
other softer track on there it woulda stood up better as an
ep like chiclisuite did.

autechre is sort of like the GOP in the US, in a way.
they've backed themselves into a corner, and depend on a
white male demographic. as long as they continue to play
their cards right, certain chaps will always project all
sorts of amazing things onto the music, which never actually
occurred to brown &/|| booth. they simply have to strike the
right tone and remain a tad aloof. however, this tactic is
also spectacularly limp at capturing new listeners, leaving
them to die a slow death of moldering elbow patches:
Squeezed between repeating themselves into irrelevancy, and
popping the farce bubble (which would cause a dust-up orders
of magnitudes worse than chris clark's compressor changeup).
truly, grave times
