Confield Solution

You know why I think people are harsh on Confield? I think

it's because it's very alien. It contrasts all other music,

even IDM, very well. It's got beautiful chords, complex
beats, and first-rate sequencing, does it not? The rhythms
and harmonies are lightyears ahead of anything I've heard
prior to Confield. It's really something for Autechre. I
think Pen Expers is a bit weak, but only in comparison to
the rest of it. Great record, man!

I originally posted the above in a thread that I didn't
figure anyone was going to read. Sorry for this if it's an
inconvenience. :)

Ehh, I thought it would be helpful to people who don't like
Confield to see why I do, and probably why others do. Sorry
if I wasted your time, but I thought this was a good post.

this record charts a completely new and musically unique
territory, strikingly alien, yep.

So is that a silo?

I wouldn't call it light-years ahead of its time in either
rhythm or harmony

"I wouldn't call it light-years ahead of its time in either

I agree with that.

Ehh okay, so no one's on my side. :)
But to me, it's very far-out stuff and I'll always give it a
listen :)
My biggest complaint is the silence at the start of VI Scose
Poise :)

I'm on yr side buddy, Confield is a work of genius just like
everything else those two put out. A masterwork unparalled
by anything in the music indistry today.. beautiful,
emotional, intellectual, and just physically fun to listen
to.. right on spooky.

to the people that dont like confield, listen to it and try
to appreciate all the palpable textures that the sounds
create. ive never heard sounds you can almost feel this way
out of any other album quite like this one.

my 2 cents.

i used to think the first seconds of VI scose poise were
silent. then i turned it up louder.

?

some kind of subliminal message you mean?

Points: 2116 Status: Lurker



no, there's sound there, just really quiet.

I listen to my records at comfortable levels. I find that
when it's too loud, certain sounds lose focus. It's like
watching TV too close, I guess. But anyway, I haven't heard
anything there, and it bothers me a bit.

Confield has a lot of action; and I think that there is
emotion behind it. The chords are powerful. Great
harmonies!

i like the virtual silence at the beginning, it makes the
first hit of the steel ball thing that much better, just one
of the quirks that make the album great.

confield introduced me to ae.
i love that album. i never heard anything i like that
before, although it's not light-years ahead of its time,
methinks...
