The "synths are made for house music" comment was rather hilarious.

He could know though. Because of him there's a Micro Modular.

You might need to redefine the term "respect" and learn more about who I am...

 

For starters I was the one inspiring Clavia to build the Micro Modular.

LOL

/sarcasm

Oh! (keyosc) is a 8:55 of my dreams about Amber pt. 2.

Awesome work!

mushroom exai mega listening session commencing in t minus 20 minutes.

 

I'm an exai virgin peeps! Here goes first listen!

 

:beer:

Still waiting for the report. Some tracks might be scary on shrooms though.

bladelores evokes some kind of evolved version of perlance subrange 6-36.

spl9...

:wtf:

"I think a lot of people, when they're constructing complex music, have this idea that for something maddeningly complex to change into something else that's maddeningly complex you've got to do it suddenly," says Sean, "But there are millions of ways you can do it, because you can have your entire track changing piece by piece as it rotates, and that's what we're into. We like things like a puzzle where it's revealing itself and changing. And you can almost follow it, because it works the same pace as your brain works. The trick is not to get it to work faster or slower, but to get it in tune with yourself. And obviously there are some people who work faster than that, and they'll hear it and think this is boring, and there are people who work slower than that, and they'll think this is too much. For us it's the right pace."

In some ways I think this aspect is missing of late, but in some tracks they still nail it.

spl9...

vekoS...

I know a lot of people who wouldn't stand Autechre & Skrillex and the rest of the 'far out in unsoundland' acts.

spl9 is my new favorite, sorry bladelores

Does anybody else feel that FLeure sounds kind of "artifacty"

I've been saying that from the get go. Someone said it was a trigger to make the listener aware of all the synthesis they're about to experience... I think it just sounds like tingy streaming audio artifacts.

Glad someone else picked up on it.

Who's this artist?

I was feeling surprisingly meh about a new Autechre album, and won't be hearing it until I can get a physical copy anyway, but now I dusted off Move Of Ten again and fuck, so stoked for this album.

see you in 2016 guys!

why do you feel the need to listen to it on an physical media ? chances are it was created on a computer so audio files are its more original form. it's like waiting for some analogically recorded jazz album to appear in mp3s and ignore the original recording on a vinyl.

In a nutshell: I have this thing about not paying for files, and I try not to "steal" music anymore these days, that's really all it is.

but you're paying for music, not files..

But when you order the vinyl, you get the files anyway. And if you already paid for it, you wouldn't be stealing it.

And stop cutting.

Shot some underwater test footage yesterday and looked it over while listening to Exai. Thought I'd share a section that ended up looking kind of cool lol

Third run through - wasn't sure at first but Fluere is a stunning opener and seems to come at you faster than anything but Spl9, which is glorious. 2:50 - 3:00 of 1 1 is probably my favorite bit of the whole Exai right now
