Oh fuck this thread.

 

AE is a freshly waxed arse farting all over IDM message board.

 

 

Nope. That's the shape of something quite useless and smelly. Autechre is neither.

Autechre is like a Contagious Zombie Virus. As soon as you have it you feel compelled to give it to other people.

I say Cfern looks like a tropical island where everything is made of glass for some reason.

 

 

Lovely description dude. Now I'm looking extra much forward to listening to Cfern next time! :)

LP5 sounds like amorphous twisting geometric shapes expanding and snapping back like elastic bands. i also picture a dusty old office room full to the brim with old documents and computers. other pieces remind me of folding paper shapes, delicately balancing on each other...

 

condfield sounds like you are looking into a room full of strange machine-type things. all of them pulsing and gyrating to themselves.

 

tri repetae is what it is, clanging metal and whatnot.

 

chiastic slide sounds more organic, like rusted metal growing out of the ground in fast motion.

these noobs are killin me. and not in a good way.

I don't get why you get so worked up about this... you don't even post in this subforum

was going to edit but my time ran out so double post:

 

as for Ae album shapes...

 

Incunabula is the dawn of the earth and is shrouded in mystery.

 

Amber is the tribal age of civilization, where man (or whatever) learns and explores the beauty

 

Tri repetae is the mechanical age, where machinery is the primary way of getting any process done

 

Chiastic Slide is the ascent into space and subsequent residence there for a period of time. CS is definitely Autechre-Space if there ever was such a thing.

 

LP5 is the discovery of a new planet with a different atmosphere, different landscape, etc, and the subsequent exploration thereof.

 

EP7 is the descent into the oceans of this planet in search of new life.

 

Confield is where you end up after being sucked down the sinkhole at the bottom of the ocean. Not only is it a completely different landscape and atmosphere, it is a completely different dimension where our present laws of physics don't even make sense.

 

Draft 7.30 is after a period of time when this realm has been colonized and organized to a certain degree. Draft is to Confield as Tri Rep is to Amber, in that it is a more highly mechanical and organized stage of the same atmosphere.

 

Untilted is the exploration and calculation of madness and #0 ?? () at dwt\widgets\Display.d:3521 from pintlgnt.dll the descent thereof. The album bleeds schizophrenia and paranoia. Towards the end, you begin to approach (0x3a61e573) thread(2128) the edge of definable reality (the sublimit :tongue: ) and Unhandled Exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION(0xc0000005) at pintlgnt.dll

lol im a noob. i listen to condfield! (it was a typo)

 

incunabula always reminded me of wipeout on playstation.

 

and why exactly is this thread so lame? booth/brown take imagery in their music seriously. thats part of the reason they left some of their covers blank: so the listener could come up with his own visual interpretations. sorry if it's cliche or noobish.

No man you got it exactly right. The haters come into this forum to express how disgusted they are by our fanboyism. Its the way watmm's always been and I don't see it changing any time soon so take what they say with a grain of salt

 

 

also calx sherbet, I'm honoured that you would add me to your sig

You're a retard.

People complaining are not haters. They just wish you guys would use the search function once in a while.

Also they forget that they were once just like that.

 

For me Quaristice is like a perfect fusion of Amber Tri Rep and Confield. The more I listen to Quaristice the happier I am with it.

There are only a couple of track on the Quaristice appendices that I think are better than the originals.

백호야~~~항상에 사랑할거예요.나의 아들.

 

Shout outs to the saracens, musulmen and celestials.

 

I wasn't talkin about you I just mean in general alot of people come into the Ae subforum just to tell us not to talk about autechre so much...... I mean if this is not the place to rant shamelessly about Ae, then where is?

I wouldn't take it seriously.

I don't anymore, I've certainly gotten used to it but I like to inform the noobies because I think a good chunk of them piss off because of people like Clitterhaus.

 

Once you get past it though I do sincerely appreciate his posts. Always good fun to break up the seriousness around this part of watmm
