Box set came in today! It's ... huge. Pretty cool triangle pattern on the spines to help make it easy to keep them in order.

Ha! I had a note in the post today that DHL couldn't deliver a package as I wasn't home. Couldn't for the life of me think of what it was until you mentioned this right now! Ordered it ages ago, it feels. Picking it up tomorrow, stoked.

I got mine yesterday.
In today’s mail: the 8CD Autechre box I ordered on April 9. My favorite aspect of the design is the black lines on the spine of the individual sleeves, each one a little longer than its predecessor. pic.twitter.com/EanXZ85jyU— burning ambulance (listen to the podcast!) (@burn_amb) August 20, 2018

The black mark next to the 1 on those photos, does that have a purpose?

part of original cover art. iirc is a placed differently on each of the 4 volumes.

it matches the left-hand edge of the lower right-hand figure.

Does it though? It's a bit lower than the top of the one and you'd think a simple 5x5 character set would be more regular. Also, why?

This agrees with ledge. Still looks like a mistake to me though.
― koogs, Wednesday, 22 August 2018 08:45 (five years ago) link
Edge of the *right* hand figure (i.e. the 4). It’s not a 5x5 pixel grid either, the zeroes have diagonal slashes on the four session covers.

(remember these are the guys who made the Exai sleeve look like binary or a QR code - before Sean admitted they just scribbled e, x, a, i in rough pixel grids and messed it up a bit)
― an incoherent crustacean (MatthewK), Wednesday, 22 August 2018 09:01 (five years ago) link
I'd say the black line is just a graphic reference to the other parts of the design and makes the outer edge look more balanced / identifiable.

They don't show the box front though, do they? (As well as being digital images from months ago.)

By the way if anyone thinks the discussion earlier was trivial and anal I'd remind you that Black Lines Matter.

bit of manipulation of part of that gives this:

£31 though. how will they handle the people who already bought the first 9?
― koogs, Thursday, 31 January 2019 20:32 (five years ago) link
(and isn't that 19 new albums?)
((and isn't downloading them in bulk going to be a problem?))
― koogs, Thursday, 31 January 2019 20:37 (five years ago) link
bought it - you just add to cart and they discount it by what you’ve already bought. In my case I bought the 24 bit set previously so adding the 17 new ones was only charged at $1.50 per show/track (making it $25.50 for 17 hours of admittedly-similar live sets)

are they different enough to warrant listening to though

i think MatthewK should report back to this thread in exactly 17 hours with the answer!

i make it 19 new sets, 28 in total, 9 original.

don't get me wrong 28 officially released live albums is amazing, just imagine if they weren't all from the same tour though
― frogbs, Friday, 1 February 2019 03:28 (five years ago) link
I quite agree, when I heard there was new stuff I thought great, a different set!
