i heardit at work first and couldn't focus on it.. but when i got home i listened in the studio and there's some amazing structure in there.. and those pitter patter rhythms going on.. everything kind of constantly morphs. i appreciate all the open loose structures in all these tracks.  having listened to lot's of really long jazz tracks from miles davis (big fun, panthallassa, etc) over the years i find it immediately makes sense for them to do this kind of thing and really just play w/all the ideas.

icari is epic to me.

Rob in the AAA literally said M39 Diffain was made from a field recording of him walking around in the rain. Was it Berlin he said?

Not AAA, the quietus

Its time for a new ae interview

If they did another long interview now like the Elseq RA one from 2 years ago I would be so happy

NTS has more bass-heavy tracks than anything they've done. 

My theory is that everyone complaining about the bass just has shitty speakers.         

Untold?  band?

'M39 Diffain'

 

RB: "It took a while to make that track, 'cause it was made up of disparate elements. It was less of the machine-building and a lot of found sounds, a lot of field recordings going into it – rain, New York, bits of city life, bits of weather, direct recordings of rain on certain objects mic'd-up - things like that. Oddly enough, I remember walking into town with it on my headphones, demoing it to see where it's going next. As it happened, I was on my way to an Untold gig. None of my friends could make it, and I basically got pissed and listened to Untold on my own and it was brilliant, even though I was this kind of sad dickhead at the back of the club with some Red Stripe having a great time and being all ears. I totally remember walking in the rain with it on headphones to a gig. It was just the best night, because I got to check this track out in the rain, [and] it was recorded using bits of rain… I went for a long, late-night walk listening to a nearly-finished version, went home and put the final touches to it, and then it was done. I think it's a good one for depth and scapes, just listening on headphones and being isolated with a weather pattern nearby."

 

 

 

that's fuckin cool

It was in the AAA too. It's how we learned that tac lacora was solo Sean and M39 Diffain was solo Rob.

Well, i didn't read it all (throws the subforum badge), but i think Sean told the tac Lacora story there and Rob's M39 Diffain came after in this interview, as it was the same month

quite possibly. I am not prepared to back up my claim with citations as I am too lazy. But my memory is usually pretty good, especially when it comes to useless shit like ae trivia

now they make music only with maxmsp, completely digital. you can hear stepped wave forms if you listen carefully. it's awful! melodies cant survive this digital armagedon...their fate is doomed from the very start on synthesis level. now multiply every channel and efx. that my friends is the definition of audio hell

urrrrkkkkkkk!

oh dope. just went through some youtubes.  heady techno. 

i think i'd stand in the back of the room all ears too. 

getting strong LFO vibes from splesh. feels like an hommage to Bell.

^I was just thinking this the other day, there's one melody in splesh that totally sounds like the melody at the end of LFO - Freak

i kinda scanned throug a bunch of tracks from sessions 1-3 and holy fuck so much awesome immense bewildering tunes.. after session 4 i'll have to decompress or something. make some play lists and then approach them again. i have a bunch of recordsings of the modular i have to go through but i don't want to go near them while i'm thinking about the autechres. it'll headfuck the outcome.

My theory is that everyone complaining about the bass just has shitty speakers.

I like that my breaking point for the first time with a studio album with AE since 2008 was "the kick drum sound is too quiet and not thicc enough" instead of their jam band for Linux user aesthetic since elseq lol. And I guess the mixes are flat like the Quaristice jams and some of AE LIVE.

I dont get the lack of bass comments_ Untilted, sure, prioritizes precise textures and can generally sound less than phat.  But NTS has some of the most earth shattering grumbles in the low-end that theyve put out in years.  Been listening mostly cranked loud on headphones fwiw

Yeah, I've not had any issues with bass in these sessions.

I'm wondering if it's just my headphones...

Sennheiser 280pro-EQ settings off... And loud.

Everything is clear, and the bass sometimes vibrates my headphones.

=X

I think i read somewhere that the 280's are kind of bass heavy... =/

Maybe that's it? No clue...
