  1. You really need another album already? SIGN isn't even out yet (officially). You will be so disappointed if there's no album number 2, you do it to yourself :cisfor:.

    If there is a second album like Saemus hinted (though what he said could mean anything) it doesn't make much sense releasing it shortly after the "first" one. Spring 2021 would make more sense.

    Ah yes Julian Fane. One of the golden IDM era artists that just disappeared off the map...99-2006 a ton of pmu artists were so amazing at least in my books and then poof they just vanished.. ?

    I can see a 2013 album on Spotify.

    Yes! I see that. Especially tracks like Notwo (this one especially), Altibzz, and Outh9X (and the more minimal 'overtly' synthy ambient ones off Quadrage, and Altichyre.) But also in other ways (like the approach to pacing and detail), it seems quite stylistically reflective of Quaristice.  

    Notwo is one of my fave tracks by the 'chre bros. First time I've heard it I was thinking how much I'd love an AE album fully in this vein. Although I doubt it is anything like Notwo I really look forward to listen to SIGN. In the meantime I'm re-listening NTS seshs and some other stuff by the bois.

    I also think this might be the work of one person. No evidence, just a weird strong hunch because of its sound. I think it’s Sean. Although the first and last tracks could be Rob. ?

    I also agree that, apart from the incredible first track, a lot of it feels like it has had the usual crazy Autechre sound-designs stripped away or rendered very subtle. It’s kind of super ‘synthy’ and upfront and raw for entire track durations on some tracks. Known (1) did eventually really grow on me (I’m embarrassed about how I first responded to that on here), and some tracks on here remind me of that wonderful piece, but they seem a bit more plodding-chordal and less layered, and kind of usually end how they begin. Some of this one makes even the NTS Sessions feel really full and dense and wild, let alone something like Exai. But Sign is dense in its own way - just not in that super layered and mutated way. Or something...

    Anyway, I think we should be free to compare albums, discuss it in any way, and share thoughts. We all know we’ll change our minds. Variety in posts is very interesting. 

     

    Is there much haprsichord sound on the album? ?

    Sounds like a bit of a mashup between Oversteps and Exai, but through a totally new lens. Really digging the aquatic vibe that many people are mentioning. 

    We'll see if it holds up but this is really special so far.

    now you got me exaited

    hate to compare but this almost sounds like opn to me, which is great because he's my favorite. Such fucking pretty synth sounds. It sounds sad....Perfect music for this year.

    omg, pls, no

    Had difficulty deciding whether to listen to the stream or wait for the CD. In the end I settled on waiting for the CD to listen but reading this thread during the stream, which may turn out to be a terrible idea.

    No, it will be fun, trust me. You'll for a certain idea how the album sounds based on the posts and then you'll be blown away how different it is to your idea once you hear it for yourself.

    I expect exactly that.

    You could turn the stream on and connect headphones, but then turn the volume down to zero. I advise to wear a buttplug in sign shape.

    Where can I get that?

    Reaction? It does sound like they wrote it with Native Instruments - "Reaktor" I was just on Elektronauts to find that out. Spanks for the crue. BTW Motley Crue plays nashville in 2021. Get with it 2024 ecrapsis.

    Nah, they use Audacity exclusively afaik. And some Max guy writes all their music for them but for some reason is never credited.

    c'mon! this streaming is a liturgical fact, abstaining is prohibited! 

    (in any case it will take at least a year before we can say that we have really listened to Sign)

    I guess you're right but there's something special about the first WTF moment/reaction being complete with surface noise.
