Zephyr Nova - Oslo4 . . z is my fav so far if i'd have to pick only one...

 

Cheers!

It was a difficult track to make because my goal was to make something that could pass an an Ae track. It's the first time I've deliberately tried to make something sound like another artist, which is a very strange way to work. I was fighting off my own composition/production instincts the whole way through, though I may have wavered a bit when it came to the melodic stuff towards the end. It was challenging, but quite fun.

 

 

well u did it man...even more; it sounds like a track from twelb ;)

 

 

 

just out of interest, what speakers do you have? your track (this and others) sounds fantastic and also the complete album sounds pretty uniform, for being a VA project

 

I have Mackie HR824 monitors: http://www.musiciansfriend.com/pro-audio/mackie-hr824-studio-monitor

But honestly I rely more on my headphones, which used to be Sony 700's and are now Shure SRH840's. This was the first mastering job I did since making the headphones transition. I tend to get everything sounding good to me through the headphones, then switch to the Mackie mons for reassurance (usually they'll make me notice a few things in the lower/mid frequencies that need to be dealt with, but I knew my Sony headphones well enough to anticipate how mixes would transfer to other speakers. The Mackies are still super helpful though).

Nice!

So which tracks go with which posters? (for the tracks where artist names and poster names are different.) I only recognized a few names on here, and some of my fave tracks were from names I didn't recognize.

 

I'd also love a list of usernames with artist names. I assume frankie5fingers could put that together? My track is the first one.

Here is the list of artists. 4 are blank since they did not provide much info for me to know or figure out who they were.

1-Feartherush

Hi People

Errr, I'm No.10 :)

I got involved by being a lurker around here, seeing the tribute thread and then realising that Bewegung are one of my friends on SC. I asked if it was possible to be included and luckily for me they are truly awesome people and agreed - hope you regulars don't mind my intrusion :)

Just a few things about my track - I tried to capture the vibe of Ae live shows as I've been to a fair few over the years (Musicbox in Manchester, Rainbow Warehouse & Medbar in Brum, Stealth in Nottingham) and they have always been mind blowing. So I tried to create a single track that reflects my experience of their live shows in terms of pace, dynamics & sounds. I definitely haven't the skills to create a proper cover, so its more of an 'interpretation' of a concept (lol)

There is some really, really cool things on the album though so I am stoked beyond words to be a part of this release. Respect to all involved and yes the artwork is stunning.

Thanks again.

That was the biggest surprise fro me that although lots of different stuff on this it works really well as an album as a whole and has a nice cohesive vibe.

i'm no.14

I finally managed to listen the album and WOW CONGRATS EVERYONE!!!!

You got the essence of almost every Autechre era (I've heard some L-event/Exai, Confield and even LP5 reminiscences).

But these tracks I liked them the most:

Weakmassive - Modnesz

not even listened yet (will do) but gotta say - that artwork is the fucking tits.

Agreed, it's quite good. Still a bit sad mine got rejected though. Although I did mis-interpret "Tribute to Autechre", it had some potential IMO

lolomgwtf.

...

that's art

that's disgusting. i don't care about the whatever the fluid is that or the sexual connotations it has.

you just DESTROYED a beautiful piece of ART

YEEEAAAAHHH!!!

mine comes out all fizzy like soda. how did you get yours like that? is it a dietary thing?

Great compilation album, but that Sean Booth Awakes... track is about 7 minutes and 17 seconds too long.

i'm no. 7

jaderpansen track is my favourite. i'm surprised my little shuffle around various freq domains made it.

I like your track, it's the most ominous and noise-like. It matches the title perfectly, and the title alone probably guaranteed entry to the album hehe. Jaderpansen's is one of my favorites also... I think it's the most eclectic, in a good way, and one of the best produced, at least to my ears.

also, purely subjective:

-my award for original track most passable as an actual Autechre track goes to Zephr Nova's Oslo4..z. Excellently done.

-Modnesz is the perfect opener, captures some Quadristice/Quadrange vibes maybe... nice and glitchy the way i like it.

-TMPEFD9 is probably my favorite, just plain badass, especially love that burst at :16.

-Jeye's track the best tribute to Incunabula era Ae. Some of the drum work is straight out of Doctrine, etc; awesome. Great melodies.

-Dulwich Dogs is the most frenetic, pure D&B energy onslaught. I like the vocal sample work on this one.

-QBLA's is awesome in how it morphs pieces of Augmatic Disport and Corc (and others?) into a sick hip hop groove.

-Piledrivers is a beast, pulses with great timbres and sort of off-polyrhythm goodness.

-OffRamp is a great hard hitting track, evokes spl9 or untilted era Ae live to me... wicked meldoy at the end.

-Lencle is dope, it's the most like Confield and EP7, or some of LP5's great transition stuff. Crisp and crunching.

-Resigner is the most like Oversteps to me, another one of the most awesomely produced. Love the timbres; epic; one of my fav's

-Altibbound is a lush tribute to Altibzz; great ambience and washes of synth and reverb.

Kudos to the people who covered tracks, I don't think I could pull it off...seems like much more work to me somehow:

-The egg Ovate version is a nice almost dubby rendition of the Egg/Eggshell. Lots of groove, space, atmosphere. Tits.

-Cichli cover is amazing, it sounds like an acoustic rendition, like the percussion was done on the back of a guitar or something. I'd like to hear more about this one. I can't imagine pulling this off, even as I played the guitar for years. Again I'm just assuming this was guitar.

-the Gelk cover is rich with melody. I like how the percussion stumbles in spots, true to form. Those bells really were perfect for closing the compilation.

great tracks all around. I like how OffRamp and Annihilinhalation II work. really ties the album together.

Your ears are on point. The Cichli cover is actually the audio from this vid:

Thanks for the compliments! I've been thoroughly enjoying chewing on this whole album for the past week. Just awesome, the amount of talent out there that's just chillin.

I've had several listens through this now and its a really, really good release - I honestly really like every single track on here.

A great selection of electronica.

Really great compilation, I wish I'd gotten my shit together and put together my planned cover of 'Krib', but it was not to be.

Up on Discogs. Add to your collections: http://www.discogs.com/Various-ae-thx/release/5484822

I also must say that the front cover is wonderful; excellent detail and deft illustration convey a truly magical atmosphere that I would love to experience.

yeah, everything about the album was awesome. everyone really came together on this one.
