Green Room - I thought I had a high tolerance, but this was without a doubt the most terrifying theatre experience I have ever had. Like Assault on Precinct 13 cranked to 10. Highly recommend!

This is too huge for me to digest atm. I am in more of a live instrumentation mood lately. Regardless, I am glad to hear more melodies creeping back in, like shafts of light. I think I got a little burnt out on the AE_live sound palette... there are hints of new directions in this.

I have been ready to give up on this show a couple of times (too slow), but then out comes a scene like the one between Mike and Tuco...

Watt by Samuel Beckett. Not an easy read by any means, but Beckett has this ability to break down human experience to the most granular level. I feel like I have OCD.

on loop... perfect morning music. he is a master of the awkward groove.

Just finished The City & The City by China Mieville. Strongly recommend. It's a police procedural set in two european cities that exist on the same physical plain. Kind of Kafka-esque. Moby Dick is even better when you imagine the main character, Ishamel, as Zach Galifianakis. The first 20 pages are him refusing to share a bed with another man. Later, they wake up spooning. There are also amazing lines like this, "But even so, amid the tornadoed Atlantic of my being, do I myself still for ever centrally disport in mute calm"

I think this guy completes my documentarian holy trinity consisting of him, werner herzog and errol morris.

An 20-something year old couple are chased out of their city by zombie infection. They narrowly escape by fleeing onto a rickety tiny wooden boat. They are stranded at sea together... and forced to resort to cannibalism. Soundtrack by Erik Satie.

I stumbled on an interesting comment on Youtube. Someone mentioned that the track "Rainy Dub' could possibly be a remix of Vladislav Delays track 'Poiko'...or an uncredited sample. Strange Cant find Poiko on youtube unfortunately.

super lo-fi. slightly underwhelming (although you cant top rip). ill reserve judgement until its in my hands.

for you, is there a particularly depressing, sad autechre track or do you try to stay away from overtly communicating things like that?
-
1. are you ruthless editors? have you cut your best work because it didn't fit with the track listing of an album or ep? 2. do you think part of autechre's longevity is partly due to the fact that you are always finding new methods of working? 3. writers block q: i lately over analyze my compositions because my criteria is that it has to surprise me by its originality (which is why i love your music). it is slightly crippling. any advice? thank you!

Can you provide some info on the sessions of making Perlence-subrange 6-36? The Quaristice era is phenomenal. Such a mysterious album!
-
1. can you name a specific track where you thought 'we've reached another level!' and maybe hi-fived each other in the studio while popping and locking? 2. do you guys push yourselves to explore 'unconventional' melodies? say someone creates a simple catchy pop hook- do you mess with it so its more subtle and perhaps less immediate? imo, I would say that the early albums were more explicitly melodic. 3. do you ever go back to old stuff and think 'aahh i wish i used a different snare sound'? I would imagine its inevitable with such detail-oriented music.

- Sean or Rob, my machinedrum is on the verge of gaining sentience. Could you give it a name? - I wonder what the design process was like for the Exai album artwork. Did you approach tDR with a loose concept or a few key references? Or do you let him generate a few concepts interpreting what he hears in the music?

Do you gentlemen have any philosophy recommendations? I believe Derrida's name was thrown around in an interview, which excited me greatly.

This album feels huge! You think you have a grasp on a track when suddenly a more foregrounded sound comes in making you realize that it is a wider canvas. You were just staring at a specific point in the distance the whole time. For this reason the compositions feel cryptically self-aware to me. prac-f: holy hell, this is some excellent sound design and mixing. made me smile. jatevee C: phenomenal deconstructed hip hop vibe. T ess xi: it's quite jarring to hear such an overtly pretty melody coming from autechre these days. Lovely. The latter third of this track sounds dripping wet. vekoS: literally sounds like an animal is trapped inside some constantly shifting cage. tuinorizn: reminds me of a heavier oversteps. it creates a nice feeling of negative space between the individual elements. bladelores: immense. at 5 minutes in, for a brief moment, the rising pad sounds like classical music in space right until the beat slips back in. it conjures total science fiction imagery for me. side one ends with beautiful long-ass reverb decay. break time.
