Can anyone else find it hard to see a melodious future for Autechre? If you were to make a graph of their career, release wise, melodies on the y, glitchyness on the x, a steady 45 degree line would be the result going this way \. But don't you reckon, where does their creative future lie? It's been like say a fine english artist like say Constable, growing up and evolving into Picasso. (not that i have anything against either of them). So in 5 years, what will they be like? Merzbow? |

|
In 5 years, they will record all Britney Spears songs backwards..... maybe..... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
by then they'll move on to the medium of light |
||||||||

want me to do a simple linear regression analysis of this relationship? heh, sorry... I have statistics on the brain!! :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i hope it's like a parabola |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
or at least it comes back up and levels off around tri repetae/peel session 1 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
By the way, what happens when they cross an axis in your graph? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
negative glitchiness??? hmm, does not compute.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

In five years you asshats will be wishing for the classic, melodic sounds of Gantz Graf. Seriously though, would you be happier if they were one of those bands that doesn't evolve... like BoC? *ducks* |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hey, BOC do evolve..... haven't you noticed they have learnt now to make up fantasy words like "Geogaddi"........ |
||||||||
|
|

*The_Funkmaster anticipates fleetmouses duck, and hits him in the face with his punch* BOOYA!!! ;) |

i give up |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
They'll be doing more commericials than Moby |
||||||||
|
|

jamesa > give up? you didn't expect serious answers, did you? |
||||||||

Considering confield is garbage, i think they're going down hill, old stuff was great tho. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I forgot to say "in my opinion". |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
poly-c - it was just a good observation that is completely true! nice one! i was going to replace glitchyness with shitness but when shitness becomes negative it turns into goodness - which wasn't the point i was trying to get across! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they're stuff post lp5 is quite hard going though imo. I admire it, but usually only one or two tracks at a time. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
fleetmouse - i am all for evolving bands or producers - the best ones do eg aphex twinymething. it seems a bit odd and a little uncreative to me that autechre should abandon their melodious roots in favour of reckless unfriendly psycho beats. and as far as boc's concerned you're right, mhtrtc and geogaddi are very similar in styles, but still both great albums. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm not one to speculate, but i'll just say five years from now i will look into their latest release up to that date |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
me too, who knows, maybe my musical tastes evolve exactly five years behind autechres in some mystical force of the cosmos |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Who cares really...... 5 years ago i listened mainly death/black metal, so i think in about 5 years i might not be into IDM anymore....... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
true also |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
boc only really evolved with in a beautiful place, then they devolved or something back... and with ae... i think the middle years were the best... incunabula and amber are decent, but not nearly as good as the other two i mentioned earlier |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yip, you're right. and i guess that is why i do care, because i love their old stuff so much. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's like - the talents there, but they're not utilising it the way i want them to! do they care - fuck no. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
In 5 years there probably will be another IDM band that is 37 times better the AE..... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if they cared what others thought, they would turn mainstream! and that would prolly not be a good thing.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they will probably have some goofy name like Technoodle or something... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

Cichlisuite is where Autechre started to get really good imho. EP7, Peel 2 and Confield are my favorites. The first year I owned EP7 I listened to it through at least once daily. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"it's like - the talents there, but they're not utilising it the way i want them to! " theyre using their talent the way i want them too, so i guess everything is blanaced. i think ae's music is constantly evolving, the problem is that you dont seem to do the same. you're stuck to their earlier more melodic tracks and just wish they'd continue to use the same formula. im glad theyre not. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they will be sprawled on a couch..sucking a bud..watching a game..ringing their pals and going..Whassssssssuuuuuuup... no wait...that's Linkin Park... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
In 5 years everyone will be listening to Stoneworld. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i just hope it doesn't go back to cavity job style :x |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Haha, Cavity Job was the first Autechre I ever downloaded. And I was like, huh? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it makes me giggle... accelera 1&2 make me giggle as well... i have a cd i made, with those two songs and then the radio mix. it's quite an odd combination... i should put cavityjob and gantz graf on a cd together, like an abridged history of ae :x |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think they'll be releasing discs with different noise colors IE pink, white, etc. just at different freqs and different durations. And after that i think they'll prouduce music for dogs only using freqs they can hear... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Cortex- No, you're right in thinking i'm not too hot on the new stuff - though can't wait to get the dvd - but what i'm saying is that in my humble opinion i would prefer it if they had evolved in a different, slightly less unfriendly, cold kind of a way. That's just me. If you like it then super. I just can't listen to confield the whole way through, but tri repetae, lp5 and incunabula will last forever. I would hate to see them use the same formula, the 3 albums mentioned showed progression that would be easy to recognise, fan or not, and i think they're great. To take away the melody for me is a shame or rather remove an essence of something that i will enjoy remembering throughout my day. I doubt i'm the only one that thinks like this. Have a listen to drukqs cd 1 track 7 - now there is progression without compromising melody! |

in 5 years sean and rob will be in their mid 30s, ye? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if you say so, why? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this is a tough topic... i'm speechless |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
in a 1997 interview regarding chiastic slide sean said he was 25 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Maybe they'll learn some power chords, put on 40 pounds and be the next D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i hope they keep going... for me they just keep getting cooler and cooler |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
apparently there's no sign of them winding down anytime soon =) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i can't seem to bother predicting autechre's future when there is so much good stuff right now from so many artists. best of luck to them. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah it is kind of pointless.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
