im all for Autechre playing up the mystery and being secretive about tracks and stuff but to me its just blatantly dumb for them to take down samples on norman and other places. Its like a major studio making youtube remove a cam copy of a comic con presentation.

I doubt AE had anything to do with Normal removing the samples - in fact, I bet Norman themselves realized they slipped up and removed them on their own accord.

 

I do agree with you though - if the album was finished, putting up 1 minute samples on the announcement would have been the better way to handle all the hype and be a nice nod to their customers and AE fans.

am fairly sure Warp had something to do with it. But yeah prob nothing to do with Autechre them sens, still fucking stupid though

What do you speculate is the main reason there are no leaks yet:

1. The people who have promos are just stand-up citizens of the nets

2. The promos have sophisticated watermarks and threats attached to them

3. WARP gave some monetary or other kind of incentive to the people who got promos

4. Autechre specifically mentions in every promo's cover letter not to leak it so that gl0tch can't hear it

5. It leaked weeks ago but a forum script auto-deletes any mention of it immediately, in a forum post, private message or CHATMM

6. Everyone who has a promo thinks they can't rip it because it sounds like the CD is skipped

9. If the file data is copied or moved more than 1.5 times, it re-writes itself so that all the tracks are silent

7. Promos have subliminal messages that make the listener forget they even have it

8. Sean's mom said no

yeah guys what's your best guess as to how many folks received a promo? ~30? ~100? i'm wondering, cause only 2 folks included a track in a mix right? you think there's any specific implied contract included with the promo, i.e. you can listen to it but you can't play it publicly or anything?

i guess the ae boys they'd like the album to hit shelves without anybody having heard it....

warp on the other hand wants to promote it

but then they don't want anyone to play it publicly

i don't even know what i'm typing anymore

look, a potato

people don’t dare leak it because rob & sean have threatened to come round and kick their heads in and burn their house down if any1 leaks it. :)

but yeah serisouly tho maybe people are just good folks but is mad at least 1 person hasnt and thats all it takes.. though, cant belive the dick head that said they cant understand the mentality of People that DONT leak it!! wtf??

444

or

777

They have finished only 30 seconds of each track planned for disc one. They'll probably pull an all-nighter on March 3.

fucking lol

Finally, it's leaked.

Thank fuck. Thought I was going to explode....

it's in my playlist, just before those. was commenting on what a great run of tracks that is. to me that's the core of quaristice, with songs like paralel Suns and 90101-51 as great periphery tracks adding new dimension to the whole.

No leak

lol what?? Talk about generic and uninteresting...!!!

It would be hilarious if Exai just ends up being 2 hours of 90101-51-19 on loop

Any gantz graf moments on Exai?

EDIT: wait.... are we still talking about the album here?

there was actually on one of the tracks, i forgot the name of it now that the clips are gone. Not as full on delay time glitchery but pretty similar sounds, at least not heard since the Gantz Graf EP
