Guest Chogg Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 d-sho qub definitely feels like wasted potential to me. It starts off so promising and then just sort of disintegrates into noodling. I wouldn't say I don't like it though. Ever think about how our perspectives change given context? Say if any one of these tracks had been released as a one-off, wouldn't we be jizzing all over it?

beerwolf Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 Oversteps is strange in that os veix3 was the immediate track I fell in love with on first play, and that it still remains my favorite off that album. Nothing really changed. Which is strange for autechre. I'm playing it now and it sounds like the soundtrack to universes, stars and planets simultaneously dying and being born.Thats what I hear/see anyway Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/77834-i-think-i-get-oversteps-now/page/6/#findComment-1972878 Share on other sites More sharing options...
joseph Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 os veix3 --> o=0 is my favorite 1-2 punch. I think o=0 is, in some ways, the epitome of what they were trying to accomplish with oversteps. especially in light of the rob brown quote that comes from the japanese release, where he says "This time we didn’t want to make a beat-centric album, but we wanted to challenge ourselves with using space while still retaining a rhythm. A glockenspiel is a good example, how it carries a melody but also serves the role of percussion… we tried this kind of approach, using percussion that wouldn’t harm or muddle our ideas."

Guest Chogg Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 o=0 is the weakest track for me, I just find it too sparse and don't like the sound palette (especially the glocks haha).

modey Posted March 23, 2013 Report Share Posted March 23, 2013 I listened to this yesterday. Still not too keen on st epreo, but everything else is pretty excellent. I love the little pseudo-guitar solos in some tracks (known(1), treale and redfall come to mind). O=0 is still a masterpiece; to me it has the same prog-IDM quality as maphive6.1. Definitely my favourite on the album and one of my favourite ae tracks overall. I can kinda understand the thought that krylon is too noodly; I just put it down to it being late in the album and sometimes I just don't get to it. Still, it's opening itself up to me. I also love how most of these tracks have verses, choruses and bridges, like pop music or something.

3849 Posted March 23, 2013 Report Share Posted March 23, 2013 "they say things like "it sounds completely random" or "incoherent noise"." I had this classmate in 2009/2010 and he said it's just bits and pieces placed after each other.And my bro's friend's dad [a musician of some sort] said that plyPhon was like that and didn't carry a beat...I also had a classmate [2 years ago?] who said that plyPhon sounded like a computer crashing... That same year I had a classmate who asked another classmate what I was listening to, and he seriously said: "some guitar music", while I was listening to known (1). And people saying that tracks like Fermium and TAPR are constantly the same [when they listen to screamo [?] and other repetitive music...

digit Posted March 23, 2013 Report Share Posted March 23, 2013 i can't help but think the perfect autechre album would be a fusion of exai & oversteps. exai has the amazing sound design & structures but is a little lacking in the melodic department, whereas oversteps has incredible melodies up the wazoo. if i had the time, i would make a mash-up of oversteps/exai. i think there could be some great combos there.
