    We need a list of the most IDM baby names then

    We named our baby girl of two weeks Eres. Not at all a common name here in Belgium, so locally it's pretty IDM, I guess.

    Also, congrats to all the other parentinos here!

    idk what it was but last Friday, around 1130pm in the PNW, I was standing in my front yard admiring the stars and right under Ursa major, "below" (or in front of, I guess) Merak and Dubhe, a series of slow moving lights - the same brightness as the nearby stars, moving in a line about double the speed you may typically perceive a satellite to be traveling - all headed, one by one, spaced unevenly but not close together, toward Polaris. They each vanished when they got to more or less the same spot, a ways beyond the big dipper, but the night was completely clear as far as I could tell and near where they disappeared there were stars visible, so it wasn't clouds blocking them...

    I dunno, weird stuff man. My phone camera sucks way too hard to capture something that subtle. Drones? 

    edit: there were something like a dozen of these slow moving "stars", and the whole affair lasted about 10-15 minutes. 

    Starlink satellites drifting apart shortly after launch maybe? The vanishing could be that they moved into earth's shadow.

    There are some excerpts up on this page. https://www.soundohm.com/product/ae3-o-h3ae

    oh wow the excerpts actually sound pretty good! I haven't heard most of this besides the shortest of the trilogy (æ³o & h³æ) but after hearing those excerpts I am a bit more interested

    These sound like bits from one of the first two albums (I'm guessing the second). I listened to those plenty, but not the third. The pitchfork review printed here is also from when the second album was released.

    Pretty confusing...

    Unless they start using actual acoustic instruments of course.

    Just for a second imagine what an all acoustic Autechre album would sound like...

    (Non-native English, so bear with me below) (also slightly drunk post, so bear with me belowow)

    I've been thinking about this for a while now.

    Does Autechre do what it does best within its current practice, or is it still searching for an ultimate framework to work in? Is it digital (however it still may evolve), or will they eventually steer away from it? Does the digital platform allow them to actually make music that would otherwise be impossible to make and thus surpass reality, or are we just kidding ourselves and is reality still stranger than fiction? After all, anything digital (fiction) is still made real via a paper cone and is therefore 'downplayed' into the real world to hear. Anything digital is channeled through that and may therefore forever be less real than anything actually real. Ofcourse, any recording played through that same paper cone, regardless of the instruments originally used will be similarly downplayed, but a digital sound can't come from anything but that paper cone (unless I'm wrong about that ofcourse).

    I consider Autechre to be really pushing things forward, even more so than Aphex Twin does (though Aphex actually does do acoustic things). I think they have yet to show their best. What that will sound like is anyone's guess. I don't think even they can imagine that just yet. What is their final album going to be like? And when will that be? Not anytime soon if you ask me. They're simply not done yet. Their motto may be more "how much music haven't we made?" than "how much have we made?". The first is infinite for sure, and that is what I believe drives them.

    The Samples: BOC Edition

    Was meaning to ask about this. How do obscure and very warped samples like that actually get identified unless the artists disclose it? Some of those are so warped and buried that I honestly can't see a human nor AI correctly IDing the source unless tipped off by the producers. Anyone know how this is done?

    One of the bro's' daytime job is writing code for Youtube that identifies warped and buried samples.
