This is easily the first Ae album fans who departed in 2001 might actually enjoy. Much more so than even Oversteps.

it's very complex in a melodic way. 2-4 have been basically ambient.
beat back tho

most flat out beautiful track they've done in a decade

feeling like i'm trapped in a slow-motion horror film and klaus schulze did the soundtrack

yeah I already like the beatless tracks here better than all the beatless tracks on NTS (and I'm a freak for NTS)

The comment above about "How are they always new?" is ringing hard with this.

I already preordered the LP and the stream keeps cutting out so I'm gonna bail on this but I loved everything I heard

this one
― lukas, Thursday, 8 October 2020 20:43 (three years ago) link
feel like the beat tracks are interludes between the ambient tracks, which are the highlight! another gorgeous one

gr4, of all the songs so far, deserves the 20 minute NTS treatment haha

properness
And Brad came in late! The opener was probably their best opener since Cipater
― octobeard, Thursday, 8 October 2020 20:49 (three years ago) link
yes and it's probably not even in the top 5 tracks so far
― Paul Ponzi, Thursday, 8 October 2020 20:50 (three years ago) link
ooo let's have a fight about an album that we haven't finished listening to yet cuz i stan the opener
― lukas, Thursday, 8 October 2020 20:51 (three years ago) link
these chords could mash up well with I've had the time of my life from Dirty Dancing lol
― J. Sam, Thursday, 8 October 2020 20:51 (three years ago) link
just absolutely losing my shit to this one ("th red a")
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Thursday, 8 October 2020 20:51 (three years ago) link
why isn't this out until next friday! i already want to hear it 300 more times
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Thursday, 8 October 2020 20:52 (three years ago) link
these chords get better the more i hear them. this is gonna be a blissed out headphones album for sure. shame i never get to bliss out with headphones any more!
wow some super abrupt endings to these tracks.
― neith moon (ledge), Thursday, 8 October 2020 20:52 (three years ago) link
This square wave synth sound is something I haven't heard from them since literally Amber.
― octobeard, Thursday, 8 October 2020 20:53 (three years ago) link
oh this is IT. nodding solemnly rn
― J. Sam, Thursday, 8 October 2020 20:53 (three years ago) link
that's what struck you first and not the kick????? xp

(but i mean, well spotted)
― lukas, Thursday, 8 October 2020 20:54 (three years ago) link
yes, love these sounds so much more than the glassy chimes that dominated oversteps.
― neith moon (ledge), Thursday, 8 October 2020 20:54 (three years ago) link
I randomly threw on Amber earlier today and it's surprising this doesn't sound worlds away. I've only caught a couple tracks but I'm way more psyched than I thought I would be.

― lukas, Thursday, 8 October 2020 20:59 (three years ago) link
xp Yeah that's kind of the shock to me. This is easily their most consistent record since.... LP5?
