"If you have a "notable" status like that of Autechre
or another famous electronic musician, people tend to be
much more open to liking the particular music you release,
regardless of its quality"


totally true!, I don´t agree about the quality part tho

there's still a few wierd things about that first leak that
tells me it's not for real.

the files were mixed quality, some CBR others VBR...

the most likely (and sane) thing to do if you rip a cd would
be to use the same quality on every file.

hahaha!! lol yeah I usually only comment on stuff I like ;)

I dont want to be negative, I dont have time to comment on
all the bad stuff thats out there, most of the music out
there sucks...if I hear something I like I love to give it
props because its worh it (if some music sucks why make
someone sad and tell him it sucks).

So I just comment on the good stuff, thats why I mostly dont
comment on the stuff made by people who make music on this
and other boards because most of that music sucks imo..btw,
hip hop is dead right now (used to be a hip hop head) :)

but just ask me if u want to know what I think about any
release? :) 85-90% of all releases suck.

oh, and by the way as u saw...Im very dissapointed if leak
one is the real deal. Draft 7.30 pisses on this if its the
real one (leak one) not the one talked about in this topic.

I hope its fake.

Being d'internet, i;ve no reason to doubt that this is true
or not. The only result for me is :

1. i got an new Ae album and tour to look forward too
2. i got some tasety electronica which i really like from
flourescent grey
3. i got throwaway entertainment form the hype here

everyones a winner

I can't see Ae album sale and/or fanbase being in anyway
lessened from this experiment.

the only thing is that it seems to yet another classic IDM
hyped up facade that has zero to do with the reason d'etre
for any of this .... the music.

shorter fake "Untitled"? sorry, i get confused which one
came first or second...

I find this whole thing retarded. What is the point of a
hoax? Later in the year, what will doing this accomplish?
Wanking over it with internet friends? "i madea ae
hoax!!!1"

I really dont understand the point of it all.

wait- so the one with the 15:52 final track and the 9 min
second track, thats still unacounted for right? Thats the
only one I've been able to find and I'm fairly convinced its
at least autechre produced, weather or not its the real
album...

the genuine one is the longer version that leaked first..

Points: 5079 Status: Lurker



Well, just because it hasn't been proven fake doesn't mean
it is real. It sounds like a load of wank anyway; I mean,
only Ae could do some of those drumming patterns and it has
typically Ae elements, but it still sounds weak, boring, and
unfinished.

I hope it's just some random Autechre tracks that they
leaked themselves.

its obvious that its geniunely autechre, but is it genuinely
untilted? because i dont know, i burned it and it was just
ok...kind of simplistic, just beats without melodies.....but
i think i am going to wait until the real deal comes,
whether it be the 69 minute leaked version or something else
totally, to make a final judgement

Well then said that they're "getting things done more
quickly" it sure shows on this release.

Mind you, EP7 is pretty similar sounding and everyone seems
to love that. I hate it.

have you listened to it on headphones? sounds way better
that way..and there are a few interesting parts inthere..but
overally that drum programming is too strong..it destroys
the music completly :(

hoaxes certainly have their place... i think this one is
interesting, although if i were to create a hoax, i wouldn't
admit to it without being first revealed. i think giving
the answer away devalues the experimental/artistic aspect of
it and twists it into more of a self-promotional con...

and if it is the case that the other "leak" isn't the final
album, then i must commend autechre for circumventing the
faulty system of album advances we now have in a clever way.

i think its just the opposite, if you listen to the first
two tracks on draft and then most on confield the drum
programming is much more complex, this seems just like one
or two layers of drums, autechre wrote it, buts it seems
like a rough draft - also the melodies are non existant, is
just minimal drums pattersn

well, i haven't listened to much of draft - mainly because
of those drum patterns, they just sound boring to my ears,
so i can't comment on that. but there are synth melodies in
untilted, very subtle, but they're there :)
