Guest Remoteviewing Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 It seems to be as sure as the law of gravity. An Autechre album is only to be "got" when the next one arrives. It's like a painting that slowly unravels itself.

I liked that track as well, along with y7 and no border. Since I'm still very much in Exai mode though, it might be a while before I listen to Quaristice, Oversteps, or Mo10 again.

Guest Chogg Posted February 28, 2013 Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 (edited) just hopped in to say cep puiqMX was an obvious highlight and had everything wonderful about ae beats AND ambience we could have asked for. As for getting oversteps post- new album, I definitely see it from a new perspective, but I loved it when it was new too.What Exai has really given me is perspective on Ts1a. Didn't care much for the track when it came out but now I love it and think it fits right in among the new material.

lumpenprol Posted February 28, 2013 Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 (edited) yeah I probably like Oversteps and Exai equally, for quite different reasons Oversteps is just a lovely album with a brilliant melodic approach (not sure of how much of it was "by design" and how much they achieved by "pressing buttons and whatnot, then selecting the best variations", but regardless the end result is fresh and wonderful). However I think it falls apart a bit in the latter half (is overlong with a few duds). Exai has amazingly immersive sound design (pure aural sex for me), but on a track-by-track basis there are few standouts. One thing that's interesting, is I've aged right along with idm. These guys aren't at a much different age than I, so I think I really respond to the slower, more melodic and less serious sound they've grown into. If I was still a young pissant, I'm sure I'd think they "lost the plot" after Draft (or possibly Untilted). I would have been all "I need more emotionally stunning tracks like Rae and Drane2" and now I'm more "I'm senile and that sounds cool and trippy to me!" Second childhood, yay.

The melodies took over the rhythmic structure and that is why it was such a leap forward. Obsessing over Ae beats is as bad as asking "where's the droppp?" sorry dad. i happen to really like complex repetitive rhythmic structure (OMG BEETZ) and don't take so much to the fleeting, heavily arpeggiated (i would lol if rob really played all those), fmsynth-covered oversteps. what do you mean by "leap forward"? i would say oversteps/mot is them emphasizing ae-brand melody through a newly devised system, rather than melody "taking over". the beats are still there, but just about all are just not as relentless and unforgiving as my tastes. interesting take on that lumpy. i think there is some truth to it. i was scared that ae were losing their balls with oversteps. the live oversteps shows seemed a bit forced to me, like they were trying to prove they still *had* it. i think now that oversteps live sets were just them fucking about with their system. exai is showing that they are either incorporating old elements into their oversteps setup and/or getting more skilled at working with their new shit (likely both). the thing i love about exai, even though i realized i don't love about half of the tracks, is it sounds creative and innovative, and i jizzed my pants just like when i heard older ae albums for the first time. so ultimately i don't think ae are senile and just going for trippy sounds just yet, but clearly they seem a little tired of brutally repetitive tracks like clipper, pen expers, lcc, sublimit Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/77834-i-think-i-get-oversteps-now/page/2/#findComment-1960454 Share on other sites More sharing options...

thehauntingsoul Posted February 28, 2013 Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 MoT and Oversteps were both quality albums. Oversteps was very soupy and loose fitting which was a good style for it although I find I'm less often in the mood to listen to something like that. I wouldn't say it's any worse than other Ae, but I don't listen to it as often and I imagine that will continue. MoT has more beats scattered around which I like, and really the only track on there that I'm not quite fond of is no border, but it's still pretty decent. Also, dude has a hilarious Autechregasm in this set at around 10:40 when things get really glitchy.
