I see what you mean now, the one on the AE_STORE's about page.

and it *just now* disappeared. I was poking around the webstore, one moment there and next its gone. hm

I'm super out of the loop here. They released MD/MM patches on their site, and now there's 13 hours of crazy A/V stuff floating around?

most probably nothing, but this account with no activity joined January 2018, same as first batch of XHK uploads.

It's roughly 16 hours now.

MD and MM patches

Nord G2 and MPC1000 patches

setlist instructions

13 hours of wild organ videos

additional playlist with 99 videos in a different style today

So, evidently this is Autechre's form of a pre-release ARG?

their warp site has a bunch of events for 18/11/2018...

checked a couple of other artists, none have anything similar

https://warp.net/artists/autechre/

...i think i'm enjoying this too much

this is fucking awesome

i mean sure, I just don't get what all of it is for (the vids I mean, not the presets).. perhaps just them experimenting as you said in the other thread

The image at the start of K59 seems to be a program guide from the BBC in the 80s. (Dallas, A Party Political Broadcast, Nine O' Clock News, Q.E.D, Sportsnight)

Similar to this: https://youtu.be/EpXov8EcZAo?t=69

I'm guessing for many of these videos, they're processing old TV streams like the one linked above.

seems like them just having fun and messing around, no?

I spend 24 hours walking around some hills in Somerset, and I come back to 99 new videos and wild speculation! Whatisthis

yeah what is the meaning of this

maybe they'll be announcing beforehand on warp site the days they will release more xhhx stuff?

 the events all have unique IDs, but I don't know if there's a way to look up events by ID on their site:

there are only 2.5 hours left in the day in the UK timezone

edit - also, there don't seem to be any autogenerated youtube Topics for 'KXH' or 'XHK' which leads me to believe that HKX is something more than just another playlist, like an actual release name.

The coincidences of it being created July 10th, the same day a ton of those videos were put up, the letter sequence being next in the pattern created by the first two, and how each playlist seems to have evolved in bitrate/quality while at the same time going down in number of videos in the playlists. Maybe the 8 events listed means it'll be an 8 track album.  I'm not sure. It's a fun puzzle though. thanks for doing it whichever one of you is reading the thread!

wrong, explained below

 edit - shit sorry about doublepost

seems like a lot of questions are happening i thought i could answer some

 

 

z7zToday at 10:21 PM

there's no release coming or anything it's not like some big ARG

 

z7zToday at 10:22 PM

the vids are just a gescom thing, there's no home for them as such so they just ended up on YT, seeing as that's where teh sources came from

 

z7zToday at 10:22 PM

it;s one of them where it's not stuff we'd ever put out commercially but we enjoy making them for sport and for a change we shared some, a look behind the curtain so to speak

 

hello spiralToday at 10:22 PM

Gescom ie shroom party entertainment?

 

z7zToday at 10:23 PM

yeah exactly, like, the horizon-looking ones are tribute to a thing we used to do with a tv, where you put tinfoil over the screen but leave a slit one pixel wide across the centre

 

 

z7zToday at 10:26 PM

sorry it's not advertising for something else, cos that seems to be the main thing, people see free stuff and assume it's a hype thing

 

z7zToday at 10:27 PM

but it's just free for the sake of it really, like posh YTP of britporwave or something, what even is it idk, art or something

 

hello spiralToday at 10:27 PM

so I can just play it on my telly

 

z7zToday at 10:27 PM

yeah and veg out

 

hello spiralToday at 10:27 PM

innit

 

z7zToday at 10:28 PM

the K ones are good on headphones in fullscreen

 

 

triachusToday at 10:28 PM

any reason why its all 80s footage?

 

z7zToday at 10:28 PM

not a reason really but i collect tv continuity clips

so i happen to have a ton of them sat there on my drive, needed some material to test the main part of the patch which is the audio part

 

 

spanToday at 10:36 PM

if someone manages to get something out of the 3D vids i'd be impressed

 

z7zToday at 10:37 PM

yeah i was wondering about that, you could prob get something out of the soundtrack but it would be lots of images overlaid, because of how the synth works

 

hello spiralToday at 10:40 PM

also, we found one more (and empty) playlist with similar title set up in same date these were

is that a thing still to come?

 

z7zToday at 10:40 PM

nope
