apriorion Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 Yeah, I often wonder about that. I'm sure there will be several "Selected NTS Works" mixes eventually, and that might help with the uninitiated. I've already started fooling around with my own lists.

What do you need to eat, drink, smoke and inhale to do such things? How to teach machines to create music for their own dictation? How to undergo constant transformations, while remaining oneself (eadu mutata resurgo)? How can you create your own electronics genre that is incomparable to anything else? Sean Booth and Rob Brown apparently know. Often imitated, never duplicated. Geometrically perfect. Impressive, uncompromising, artistically restless. Authors of music, which invariably constitutes a challenge in the face of mundane and vagueness. Their works resemble monumental sound sculptures in constant motion. The style of these two can not be confused with anyone else - man just knows that it's Autechre after a few notes. Dense synthesizers, intricately woven melodies or shreds, metallic splinters, arrhythmia, granular synthesis, strong compression, intensive use of digital signal processors. Manipulation of sound at the master level. Autechre have made changes to their modus operandi. Not everyone gets it, and more than one admirer of the early face of the band gradually dropped out during subsequent experiments. Each album is proof of evolution and exploration. It is no different with the four-part "NTS Sessions", the record of an eight-hour (!) Session for a London radio station. The material is a logical continuation of the previous, equally colossal album - "elseq 1-5" (2016). It sounds like a casual, half-improvised jam born in an alchemical creative scarf. It is very intense, sometimes even noisy. But there is no lack of moments when it seems that they never take off their throat and they pop out with soothing ambient. One could, of course, dwell on individual works, point to references to the past (good news for fans of "Draft 7.30" and EPs "Goz Quarter": a lot of such atmospheres here), compare and try to find sophisticated metaphors. But why? In this case, writing about music really resembles dancing about architecture. Let's give voice to Booth, except that "Lynch" is replaced by "Autechre", "film" for "music" and "watching" for "listening": "Lynch is a genius. (...) It is not that you understand what you are watching. (...) But even so, the feeling of watching his movies is damn good. You watch and think: "My God, it's fuckin 'genius!" You do not know what it is, you do not know why, you just think: "I'm fuckin '!" Those who consider Autechre to be pretentious weirdos will not change their minds after listening to "NTS Sessions". Those who perceive them as genius innovators will be confirmed in their conviction. But let no one have doubts that Booth and Brown did it for loyal fans. No, they did it for themselves. As usual. Bloody geniuses. Listen to the string and loud, very loud.
