Autechre - classic or dud

the brooklyn show tonight was sick

Anybody going to the Philly show tomorrow?

listening back to this (excellent) bootleg, there are some interesting bits of overlap, with variations.

Enjoying Krakow show so far!!! Goddamnit I can't wait. Some juicy beats they're slinging in that set.

On the off chance anybody is at Union Transfer tonight, I'm the (well, a) guy in the brown striped sweater and blue glasses. Long hair, expression of vague unease, probably very very drunk

XD

Oh my, yes

oooooooooohhhhhhhhh

dope track

with headphones it's spectacular, especially around the 3:00 mark when the arse drops away and it gradually sounds like the deepest hole ever. through a macbook speaker it totally sounds like they're taking the piss.

It sounds pretty dope on these Macbook speakers!

it sounds like a couple of blokes taking the cunting arse out of piss

basically my reaction to confield until the 7th play through

i'm in the clubhouse i heard already, p kewl

i heard thru my sick bose noise cancelling cans

noise cancelling cans

so you heard nothing at all haw see what i did there

lolz

they cancel noise not noize

neway this isn't really noize imo but it's definitely heavy

Not for me.

Autechre does dub

First thoughts: lots of ©æ™® textures. Harks back to Confield era somewhat. Dope.

I would bet the new record is a 'best bits from the past couple tours' thing (though what would be really cool if it drew from whatever soundboards they have from their entire career)

Always wanted a version of 444 with a sax solo so was very stoked to find this

There's an hour-long all-AE show by those guys on YT too, this Cichli is from there

That is fantastic. Thanks for the link!

I'm starting to think that theory might be wrong.

I'm starting to think that I'll never listen to autechre ever again.

it wasn't a bad theory as these things go

xp: I don't know, it's like existential, man. (why am I listening to this? is it possible to like or dislike this? what's the meaning of life? is this music and does that even matter?) etc :)

new album out

has it leaked?

Is it washable?

has it leaked?

This is what happens when there are three Autechre threads on SNA that I had nothing to do with.

Lentic Catacheesis

I randomly stumbled upon an autechre podcast called gonkcast (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/gonkcast-an-autechre-podcast/id1533479657) and decided to listen a bit. Rather than start from the beginning I decided to start with the Confield episode. I enjoyed the episode.

A couple of remarks:
- These guys were under the impression that what they called autechre's "middle period" (confield to untilted) was the least popular era of autechre, which has not generally been the impression I had from the various message boards I've frequented where autechre was discussed
- I liked the discussion about why this sounds like completely random sounds to some people (something like how it's a bit like freeform jazz or something of the sort except that since the sounds are computer generated, people don't see the human hand that is guiding all of this and just assume that it is computer generated randomness)
- It was fun hearing these track names pronounced: one of the hosts wondering if he should say VEE Scose Poise or 6 Scose Poise, a mention of "el-sec" (in my mind it was always 'else-cue'), at some point one of the hosts starts talking about "drug use" and it took me about 30 seconds to realize he was talking about drukqs
