autechre live on NTS radio this friday

the stream friday, the nts webpage made after, and that mixcloud all show the same 30.2 mb m4a/mp4 source file named b82b_ef3b_4a35_ba87_3b826bac1d2f. websites and plugins transcoding that to produce a higher bitrate mp3 seems likely

dunno. I don't have magic ears - can't hear the difference between 24bit 48kHz PCM and 320k CBR MP3.

But I do hear when something is 128k or even 64k MP3.

and this is not that.

here's a plot from the 320k rip fwiw.

I don't know much about how to see the original encoding settings from a plot like this.

but there's high frequency things in there which probably would not be present in a 64k thing.

the live stream was very low quality, could clearly hear compression artifacts. can't hear em here.

it's the best we have, folks, and it doesn't sound bad.

aaaaaand *marks* spectograms have been posted

don't ever change, watmm

140.44MiB, 320 kbps CBR 44.1kHz/16bit stereo.

$ youtube-dl https://www.mixcloud.com/NTSRadio/autechre-22nd-january-2016/

a particular bitrate m4a does not have equal quality to an mp3 of that bitrate. m4a generally uses aac compression, a newer and better compression

ok, that is very honest of you.

[edit:nevermind]

this mix sounds great through my new speakers

I really want to record tonights show (+- 7 hours left!) and just save it in 24kbps quality as a punishment for these last few posts.

:(

(Don't worry, I won't)

here's the plot for the 30MB 68kbps file:

decide for yourself which file you want ;D

i dunno I'll stick with the higher bitrate one.

would you mind uploading the rip w/ the higher bitrate? I'm too stupid to use that command line program

oh, yeah, nice.

Thank you!

That's my recording in the last one, the official NTS recording is in here (no download though):

Anyway, that was a mind boggling set, really enjoyed it :)

Thanks for the links :)

'tis somewhat terribly macabre. Is there a better first 20 minutes of sound to listen to in pitch black? No.

the scariest NTS for sure.

cockroaches and contact mics.
