it's weird you should say that. i think it's the first album
since TR that they haven't expanded and advanced their
sound. it could easily be a load of outakes from Confield.
it's still a good album tho, but not great.

It's more rhythm and sound based than confield, there's
loads more texture on draft though.
I think it's a sweet album, I'm still absorbing it at the
mo.

6ie.cr is very cool!!

I am really enjoying draft.
one of the things I enjoy more is that now I like confield
even more... so I already loved confield, but much more
now...and stilll think draft is genious

The latest great releases was LP5. I have never heard a good
releases by AE since past 5 years.

Nothing they've done since then beats Garbage IMO- Vltrmx
and Brochussevenmx are my two favourite tracks by them.
Don't get me wrong, I like a lot of their recent stuff, but
Garbage is absolutely outstanding.

I loved it. Particularly after confield which was nice but
maybe a bit dry. The songs on Draft all have different
personalities and color.

Talking about absorbing an album, loads of people are always
talking about 'letting the album grow to you', 'take your
time to get it' and so on.

I was wondering if people would take the time to let an
album grow if it wasn't by Ae (or some other artist they
already knew). I mean, I'm definately not going to listen to
each artist at least 10 times to decide wether or not I like
it, but with Ae some songs need that time with me. I listen
to it some more times if I don't like it the first time,
becaus it's Ae and chances are high I will like it after
all. I do'n't do this that much with others.

I know what you mean, but I found the stuff on garbage
instantly accessible (once I had accquired a taste for "this
sort of music"). Perhaps their newer, more complex sounding
stuff just takes more time to get into...

Definately, their older music was more accessible, less
complex. It's different, not better or less good than what
they're up to now.

I'm listening to all Ae in chronological order right now,
and that is an interesting journey...

i agree with nacmat on the fact that i appreciate confield
even more now. there are so many dimensions to that album as
opposed to draft probably, which doesn"t mean that draft is
daft, just more accesible stuff. heck, a tom waits fan in my
flat loved 6iecr instantly. listening to ep7, you can hear
that the style hasn't changed but the rate of perfection all
the more. it's time for a new direction, though.

I still like Confield a little more. It's more extreme and I
actually like the melodies more.

It's all good though. Sean and Rob totally rock my boat like
nobody else can at the moment.

very true, i like confield a lot, very dark

i have an aritlce from xlr9r magazine may 2003, that says
they used hundred of progams d/l from the net to make
confield

whrere as draft 7.30 they focused on one program and looked
deeply into it

NOTE TO SELF:
must watch the gantz_graf dvd this weekend.

Any chance of a transcription of the article you mentioned?

I see what you're saying... with me though, if I dish out
the money for a cd, I'm gonna put some work into it if
necessary, so to speak... most albums I'll give a nice few
listens before scrapping it... and most times there is
something on a cd that I like upon first listen... so that
keeps me coming back...
