XI year old Autechre Album Released: Exai (WARP234)

whatever autechre are doing in these new clips it just puts so many other electronic producers to shame. IT's soaked in a lot of processing and various effects sooooo much better than all these half-assed musicians who just put everything through record crackle filter or bandpass or sonic decimator or fake tape hiss filter. AE wins again. (fuck actress)

Did they cancel all other 2013 releases yet?

the only leaking we may potentially witness is that of the abscess precum resultant from Warp's semi-erotic stranglehold on the balls of those in their mailing list

Why the hate towards Actress? The last days I've been listening his three albums on Spotify repeatedly and I really like what I'm hearing. It's definitely a style on its own. Sounds fresh. Why comparing it to AE btw? I don't really see the connection.

Other than that Actress mentions Autechre in interviews I agree; apples and oranges.

Actress

The way I approach music is much more from a sculptural perspective. You build algorithms. You can layer those algorithms so they become marble-like. Autechre do the complete opposite to what I do. You can see the axis, you can feel what they’re rotating around certain things. What I do is the same but I smudge it completely, so you can feel the axis but you can’t get that clarity of where it is. I like things to drip. There’s execution and there’s perfection and even though I’m a perfectionist I don’t like having something that’s so perfect you can’t see the flaws. You have to have a sense of there being a flaw in it, because essentially I’m human and I want a human aspect always to be there in my music.

And again, 30 second 128kbps previews dudes!

Btw Obel or JR, can I just put the 30sec mp3-links here?

i don't mind his music (which isn't sculptural or "marble-like"), but that pretentious gibberish (and his walking stick btw., saw it in an interview) makes me want to puke in his face.

just listen to this bleh

I don't hate him, but there is certainly something wrong with the level of worshipping of his releases from hip webzines up to specialist magazines like The Wire. I had listened to a lot of minimal techno and other non-idm electronic stuff back in 00's that had no attention from outside the scenes, and then Actress, sounding like complete and not always inspiring re-hash of those ideas, suddenly has unique style and fresh sound, talking about being opposite to Ae. A couple of years ago he also wrote on his twitter that AFX was god but current Zomby is probably better than AFX.

If the clips have been taken down then probably best not to, I'd say.

Beginning to think they are fucking with us.

Warp is really shitting the bed with this one.

Publicity stunt. Release is probably imminent; Warp just want to whip us into one last frenzy before the official early release.

Cmon 200 pages!
