Autechre: Classic or Dud?

xp funny that whole it was seen as such an important mold-breaking album at the time, Confield feels more like a transitional album in the context of their catalogue now. you're right, I'd much rather repurchase Draft.30

... despite really not bring too into it at the time.

Wish they'd reissue LP5 ...

Had no idea it was out pf orint, physically.

Yeah, it's strange - seems to be the only album Warp have let go out of print. I found it impossible to replace my CD copy of it a few years ago; even the standard jewel-case US version was out of print. In the end I got a decent used copy.

Paging the 'worst music writing ever' thread...

I'm getting a hunch these albums might have been out of print on vinyl since 2001, could be wrong though.

New tracks

https://touched.bandcamp.com/album/jnsn-code-gl16-spl47

from 2016 an 2014 Touched compilations

anD

Was 2016 the anonymous one?

(Touched put it a couple of enormous electronic music compilations a couple of years running, with, I think, 111 tracks the first year and 256 the second. The year after was just 12 anonymous tracks)

Oh oops - new to me? Either way, I was entertained.

2014 https://touched.bandcamp.com/album/touched-two contains spl47
2016 https://touched.bandcamp.com/album/touched-3 has SNSN-CODE-GL16

^ these two are for cancer research, buy these if you want to support the cause (the single isn't, as far as I can tell)

JNSN (man, I can't tpye today)

Ah, there was a third comp with 417 tracks! I don't think I bothered with that one, I probably still hadn't finished the second one...

ok - bleep newsletter: everything Touched releases supports the charity apparently.

"Touched Music For Macmillan Cancer Support release two tracks by Autechre.

JNSN CODE GL16 / spl47

Pressed to 12" vinyl.

One copy per customer.

No more words needed really..."

Speaking of Autechre vinyl, does anyone know if there are plans to reissue Chiastic / LP5 / EP7 any time soon, like they did with the first three albums?

i never know which of the 25 autechre threads to post on. anyway, some news, earthlings

http://www.factmag.com/2017/11/16/sonar-festival-music-space-contact-aliens-autechre/

the should all be merged, in random order.

Haven't those poor aliens suffered enough already? :(

https://www.nts.live/projects/autechre-nts-residency/

an internet radio thing?

So far so great.

yeah sounds like they are still in the zone. highlights at 40m and 75m. i'm leaving in 10 :/ i hope someone pressed play/record.

This is wonderful.

Twenty minutes in, just delightful.

I hear quite a bit of reworked older stuff, e.g. Altibzz / Altichyre elements.
Just found out Ae are playing in my tiny city of Hobart, Tasmania in June - woo!

delightful. it just keeps on going

You know it loops after two hours... but three new two hour sets every Thursday for the next three weeks.

yeah, just like "it's gonna rain"

um https://autechre.bleepstores.com/

Lmao, 12xLP

Lucky I'm not into vinyl. Do I need the CDs given that I don't even listen to CDs any more?

Ans: no.

i've not even got the money for the WAVs just at the moment - maybe later in the year

so is this like a new set of live records such as AE_LIVE

might have to plonk down the cash for these then

"Physical version will ship approximately three months after the final show airs"

That soundcloud saved my sanity this afternoon. Great stuff. Soothing.

I hope these will be four unique sets.. the first one is a grower, there are some really badass + beautiful parts. Kinda stoked to have a proper Autechre album (8 CDs!) to put on the stereo, oh.

If you buy one of the formats you get downloads of the tracks straight after the broadcast, so part 1 is available and consists of 9 tracks.

north spiral
gonk steady one

32a_reflected

I know, looks like a pisstake but it's the real deal.

Gonk steady, baby
That's what I feel now
Just call the song exactly what it is
Just move your hips with a feeling from side to side
Sit yourself down in your car and take a ride
While you're moving, gonk steady

Almost signing up to WATMM to inform those guys that Humpty is NOT a fucking gonk.

I stopped going there (watmm) for a while and checking in recently for this, I was dismayed at the primary school sexual innuendo in every second post, wtf

from IDM fans of all people, tsk tsk tsk

Pre-ordered the CD version. Will I ever listen to it all the way through? Sure, since you get the downloads of each set the day after they air, or something like that, so it can be absorbed in chunks. To be totally honest, I mostly bought it because it will look pretty on my shelf. (And I'll probably forget all about it during that three-month window while I'm waiting for it to arrive.)

guys what's your favorite of the AE_LIVE albums or all they all kinda the same

All these live releases... they're turning into Pearl Jam

Ylw_LEDb.tr

Implying Pearl Jam's live albums are any good… (Are they?)

xp

If you like Pearl Jam, sure.

guys what's your favorite of the AE_LIVE albums or all they all kinda the same

they're all pretty similar, the last few shove a few more developments into the same space iirc. the project to listen to them all and categorise the various movements is on hold... that's why i'm pleased the new ones are split into tracks, much more manageable.
