Autechre - PLUS 20.11.20

TM1 open 

SIGN was great before, but with PLUS it is even better i think.

ecol4 kinda reminded me of the brooding pace of a lot of songs on Gas' Narkopop

fuuuu.... ecol4 is the shiiiiiiiit

Tm1 best ending

ecol4 sounds like blaxploitation soundtrack on psychedelics in the first half and then in the second half you even can hear riffs a'la Goz Quarter

sick!

It's shaping up to be one of my fave tracks. I've had some great albums delivered this week, but PLUS has totally derailed my listening.

If nobody on soulseek has he hasn't either, and neither have I.

it is my opinion that this collection of 9 tracks is better than sign

I've prob listened to PLUS as many times in the past two days as I have SIGN in the past couple weeks. 

But it is also making me like SIGN a lot more!

i just thought FM7 sounds like the fat, drunken brother of all tomorrow's linoleum. then i typed it.

it's fuhkkn acid, ...man

haven't seen any proper reviews yet, but here is a new episode of GONKCAST on PLUS

TM1 open is definitely a version of freulaeux. The almost 4/4 kick, the acid bubbles, the synth flares, it's all there.

PLUS is +. 

So random thoughts again...

I feel like DekDre Scap B is totally savage basically as an intro (the sounds and atmosphere, SO LUSH, love the snarey things and various elements) and also made me realize this album is more like their 2000s output in that every sound and every second matters. You can hear it on every track they sound much less "generative" and much more composed. ecol4 for example it's very different from NTS in that it sounds more like something from confield or quari or even earlier, each sound and each second has far more character and not just an endless "loop" with variations. And the structures as a whole change very much from beginning to end. I love this

lso thought maybe the order is PLUS SIGN as in plussign. or maybe they put them out of order so you can choose which order you want. To me SIGN sounds more like an ending segment than a beginning, but then again the ending with cinematics / epic is kind of cliche so having PLUS at the end sort of changes things up. I don't really care that much but eh

Yeah, even in the extended tracks there is just so much development constantly. a lot of the long songs on NTS had less dramatic variations moment-to-moment with the big changes coming at a few particular inflection points, but here they seem to be morphing dramatically all the time. it makes it such a fascinating listen
