Can't wait until your etiquette book comes out, Whiney. I keep forgetting the six things it's okay to like and the four ways it's okay to express that enjoyment.

You know you're too jaded when enthusiasm sounds ridiculous. I say, fly that enthusiasm flag high! When a really awesome group known for putting out these alien, enigmatic soundscapes puts out a great collection that 99.999% of the world, and perhaps some certain percentage of fans as well, will never know even exists, shout it to the rooftops.

Can "this is pleasant music" be added to the poll? Autechre is always my first port of call when I want some pleasant music.
― Gonk Steady Crew (Noel Emits), Friday, 27 April 2018 23:38 (five years ago) link

― you bet, nancy (map), Friday, 27 April 2018 23:46 (five years ago) link
Upgrade by definition means things getting better. If it isn't better it's not an upgrade.
If you want to wilfully misconstrue that I think it's only fair to return the favour and mention that "this is pleasant music" is more nauseating than anything in the poll.

There's no band I wish I liked more than Autechre. On paper, they seem like exactly what I want in a band, but everything I've listened to has been impenetrable. Might try again with this new release

1. l3 ctrl2. e03. icari4. four of seven5. 32a_reflected
I have a number of other album length mini playlists but this feels the most accessible and album like for someone wanting to get into the Sessions. Includes tracks from 1, 2, and 3.
― octobeard, Wednesday, 3 October 2018 01:57 (five years ago) link
Wow, listening to these as actual 'albums' is like hearing the finished version of Smile for the first time. It all starts making a lot more sense. I'm on NTS 3 today after enjoying NTS 2 yesterday.
Quite enjoying Acid Mwan Idle's dubbed out diving bell vibes; makes me think of a more abstract Two Lone Swordsmen

If you moved "frane casual" and "column thirteen" to Session 3, then Session 3 would contain the highest number of tracks I cannot live without.
But Session 2 has "xflood," "gonk tuf hi," "dummy casual pt2," "violvoic," and "e0," which are all 5/5 imo.
If we ever poll the entire box, not sure I could pick between 2 and 3.
1 has "gonk steady one" and "four of seven" back to back, both of which are brilliant, but 1 has the highest number of tracks I might be tempted to skip.
― Paul Ponzi, Wednesday, 3 October 2018 21:56 (five years ago) link
I don't really get frane casual, just spins on the spot in a place that doesn't interest me. Though the fat yet hollow thrummm that develops in the background is something I could get into.

It'd be a delightful twist of events if Autechre started using mechanical spring reverb (recording their sounds through amplifiers, etc.), instead of relying on the digital reverb-freeze effects that have been so prominent since the Quaristice days. I suppose it's ridiculous to consider such a thing. If anything, Ae seem to be moving further / farther away from hardware (old school synthesizers, Elektron boxes, etc.), towards this hyper-digital frontier
