Autechre Bleep announces Live 12-hour Autechre Broadcast

I didn't pre-order it...

I wonder why they're sending different versions of the e-mail

Great! I'll be recording. Loved that last 12-hour broadcast.

i haven't found any way to sign up for a notification, but fanboys as we all are i doubt we'll have trouble remembering

The last 12 and 8 hour sets were bloody amazing so really looking forward to this one too

lol

 

12 hours, long broadcast.

 

I will not miss a second of it.

 

Who's planning to record this?

Cool, I captured the one for Quaristice (using Winamp + streamripper) and will probably do the same for this. I like these 12-hr shows but dayumn, it takes a lot of dedication to get through them! I probably listened to the last one three time max, and even then I was doing it in 1 or 2 hour segments.

If the past shows are any indication it'll probably be a lot of old-school / obscure hip-hop (not everyone's cup of tea, but I like!) with all sorts of esoterica thrown in. Then again Oversteps is a pretty far departure from the last 2 albums so maybe this will follow suit. In any event here's hoping that it'll feature a couple of extended versions of old autechre trax too - that 16-minute uviol from the last show was the tits.

I don't care, I'll skip class to hear this. Listening to a recorded version is not the same, you don't feel the connection to Sean & Rob

I would almost venture to say they will not even physically be there to "monitor" this broadcast.

They should retitle this "Live 12-Hour Random iTunes Playlist From Autechre's Computer."

Better yet, how bout they spend those 12-hours writing a small EP and posting it online when they are done.

Cheers!

It's probably too mercenary for them, but they'd probably get attention if they made access to these things contingent upon purchase of the album. call it a bonus e-ticket to a broadcast/dj set. i also really like the idea of them, if not "recording an ep", just plain blasting us with a "live" set, the same as they would do on stage, but piped at us over the web. it's not even a new idea; i'm pretty sure future sounds of london and farmers manual have done things like this, though i wasn't around to hear them. of course they didn't charge for them either.

it's not like it would prevent the recorded mp3 version from circulating among non-buyers, but it creates another free incentive for purchase in the discerning buyer. they feel as if they are getting something exclusive, of value. everyone wins.

i remember getting through a lot of that last one. i never grabbed the whole thing though. is it still online? i remember the mad scrambles of people filling in the tracklist for weeks on end. should be cool again.

i dont know about this but i do like the idea of 1 show from the tour being an exclusive webcast. that would be a nice gesture.

I really hope it's the rumored, 12-hour Perlence subrange 9-72

lol. yea, lets hear hauntingsoul justify that one! haha

why on a tuesday though? i'll only be able to listen to a fraction of this (due to work), unlike the quaristice one, which i had on all day (and was awesome)

hmm i'd prefer having one or two B&B-branded FM synths humming along for 12 hours with some really slow LFOs to another iTunes playlist type of thing. Chances are it will be kind of samey to the xlt radio brodcasts et al...

Yeah the only way I got through them was to listen to and from work on my mp3 player. However it was a good week or so of travelling tunes, it were great

After oversteps, its probably best not to try and predict what they will broadcast

so this is starting noon tuesday EST?

EST -1 for me
