just a *bleep*around
and with 18 (keyosc) it's a whole different story - is it "18 (keyosc)" as on beatink or just "keyosc" here?
oh man, one guy said after repeated listens you get more focussed on the formulaic structure of the tracks and that's totally true. Exai is a virus to reprogram your brain for new listening norms and make you wide open to mentally unfold every clandestine layers that lurk underneath to get uncovered. that's Ae at it's best. Ever since Cichli Suite some tracks are to this date "new" to me. Latest discovery: Pencha. (and try this one fasten up)
3rd time through. I think it's good for today. These visceral VLetrmxish hazyness and slightly hypnotic repeating melodies in bladelores getting me this time. man.
cheerio, guys. have one hell of relistens.

moonlight is sunlight actually!

Just listened to this all the way through at ear-splitting volume on my new phones, in the pitch dark.

 

Yep.

 

..night!

I just want another release and a tour to 'see' them live. I'm not saying all of XI sucks, but some of its sound design is so horrible.

Had a very funny first listen in a company of a friend and his wife. 3 headphones, sync start, on a mattress in a big, dark, empty room.

 

I had a feeling that we are listening to official fake :D just couldn't match what i hear in music with what i read in the reviews. Felt kinda uncomfortable at moments. Very strange shit. Was hoping for some music, maybe.

 

Friend called it overcomplicated slush, but liked it anyway.

 

His wife blacked out and had a teeth ache :D

the radiohead listening party is that way -->

This album is so damn psychedelic. Especially recks on. Swirly shit everywhere!

 

I think I'm gonna have to tackle this in segments. Might just do one LP at a time for a while when I get the physical copy.

Ahhh finally managed to get the mp3 from bleep, zip kept on being corrupted but I understand why, poor zip couldn't handle the amazing fucking darkness power of this album. Exactly what I was hoping for, today is going to be a great day !

Recks on = AE's swan song to Mick Harris. This whole album in fact sounds very Scorn inspired, if Scorn was dunked in a ketamine bath some Dipropyl tryptamine frosting

this is everything I've ever wanted in an ae album

Definitely

 

Yeah pretty much.

Yes recks on definitely reminds me of Scorn... I knew it sounded similar to something I had... specifically some track on this release,

Ah, someone who makes everything with only Adobe Audition. And two guys who have been doing this for years with all kinds of equipment. You forgot to point that out.

But thank you for posting my link, now I have more than 40 listens in two days which are probably net even 2 whole days.

i wish prac-4 was 15 minutes long. That is by far my favorite on both discs. Reminds me of almost a return to Draft but darker and scarier
