Twitch AMA

So, according to what he says, in these two years they have reworked and updated the liveset: what they play live represents Ae actuality. I would be curious, at this point, to know how the new set would have been 2 years ago, if there hadn't been the covid between the balls

Bangface Comedy Rave

Rich is funny at a distance

Blade runner 2049 - extremely long disappointed SMH

Dissing the the Lorenzo Senni dissers (with impersonation)

So many golden moments.

senni does suck tho. not because the music's effortless, just because it's shit.

anywhoo, do continue.

Senni has his own sound, does his own thing.

From previous interviews and this AMA (comments about OPN especially) i feel that Sean respect that more than anything else.

one of the most interesting takeaways for me was that he's still not in an album-based mindset, that sign and plus were merely accidents that happened on the side and that the format isn't how they were introduced to music anyway, rather 12"s and mixes.

so no point in holding one's breath in that regard i guess.

What was all that shit about Morbius? Lol

so they're still using hardware ? 

one more thing: considering he's claiming to more or less exclusively using max these days at the same time it seems fair to deduce that these tracks are rob's.

internet doing meme-things.

Not sure if Mogwai have ever done or will do a AMA but I think any BOC questions are best put to them than Autechre. There were a few questions coming through which Sean just ignored. I get the feeling he’s knows as much as we do. And tbh isn’t that interested.
 

This live AMA was a wise move by Sean as he came across really well

thanks for this. makes watching simpler.

someone ask him about the *zoviet:france* dats

My productivity at work tomorrow will suffer greatly for this. Thanks for the youtube rip.

I missed all of this hype, thanks for grabbing Whitley, will get on it. House looks like he's in Norway?

the chuckle at "will only play them from his phone at me"

Cool bit about Coil too.

Sleazy asked for some bits so I sent him some beats - he said they sounded finished. Lol.

Maybe Rob should have done the beats instead?

Also the Coil remix that never got released. Nice and insightful as always

Yeah look like he's living here now...

Every WATMMer in Norway now playing hide and seek with Sean.

I just imagine Sean living off somewhere in the Norwegian woods. And being labeled the haunted house  because it always emits weird sounds at midnight.

also, Sean's hiking and arc'teryx jackets collection confirmed.

Did anyone get that guy spamming stuff sean said in all caps and making it seem like some famous guy quoted it ?

Just catched mention about GRM.

Now thats exciting.

Yeah I asked a few questions about a possible upcoming live show in france and he talked about Paris GRM, guess he was talking about a possible show at IRCAM ? I hate Paris but I would certainly go !

edit : My bad, INA GRM is still a thing, nothing to do with IRCAM.

I literally clapped when he mentioned Beavis and Butthead being his favorite work by Mike Judge.

Also he pretty much confirmed he uses software exclusively these days.

And fuck mosquitoes. Little c**ts have been eating me alive lately too.

I bet this was good.

You’ve won that bet

watching back the first hour which i missed live..

one little part where sean goes a bit into how their "rig" is structured, and that its control protocols includes duration as a property of notes, and why that's such a cool thing to have, as opposed to "note-on" + "note-off" you get in MIDI and your standard DAWs

contemplating what can be made possible with something as glaringly obvious as that is making my head spin.  i've studiously avoided getting into max for many many years but, shit, i might just have to now.
