So weird, I like the opening run of #1 too much and have to remind myself to spread my listening and avoid burnout.

They're great but you have to admit most albums start with one of their hookier numbers yeah

Should we poll one Session at a time or have all four going at once?
― Paul Ponzi, Wednesday, 3 October 2018 00:58 (five years ago) link
one at a time, go in order

My favorite "album mix" of NTS tracks:
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.

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

yeah i love "acid mwan idle"
― princess of hell (BradNelson), Wednesday, 3 October 2018 11:42 (five years ago) link
it just kinda sounds like some evil ritual
I've only gotten through NTS 1 & 2 so far, but I'm finally starting on 3. Really gotta wait for the right afternoon to get into these.

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.

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.

Trying to go back through the first 3 sessions to make a playlist of my favorites, but now it all seems strangely unfamiliar. So Autechre.

I like how everyone is afraid to actually make the poll
Or maybe no one wants to type out all of those ridiculous titles

Autechre - NTS Session 1 POLL

nts sessions is still so good you guys
i don't really notice that much anymore but tonight it just sort of hit me that this is very out-there, challenging and rewarding music.

i used to feel the same about frane casual but that track has a loooot going on, confined to an extremely weird and minute diorama with all the low tones bleached out.

family obligations prevent me from listening to it at this time.
Fuck, this is good!

it needs more digital reverb..
― braunld (Lowell N. Behold'n), Wednesday, 5 December 2018 21:05 (five years ago) link
it's really good. reference to Netlon Sentinel from EP7? It exudes a similar cosmic darkness.. while being sort of dubstep??

This track really pays off.. after becoming fixated on the original Perlence track, on regular old Quaristice.

For me it didn’t show up for purchase, I had to sign in and it was then already in my available downloads

Dang this is a fantastic track, too. Very much an NTS leftover, but really, it should have been on the sessions. wow.
― octobeard, Friday, 7 December 2018 20:23 (five years ago) link
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

it’s not always the music that changes; sometimes it’s you, and the world around you, with the music becoming a fixed point against which you can measure your own inexorable journey through time.otm
