dude, no one controls his or hers own happiness... try making other people happy, that would do... who said we're supposed to be happy, we're cursed with the gift of rationality, which makes it almost impossible to be happy... just look at said happy people around you, don't you feel their a little bit out of place, blind and detached??? maybe looking at things like i do, like a douche, thinking that everything around me is crazy and i'm right, maybe that helps... you seem like a very intelligent guy and maybe you're just surrounded by retards... keep up dude

Interesting observations there Awe. Plan on digging through their discog again this following week after rinsing Exai a fair amount. Was always a fan of oversteps and after Exai I see it in even more favorable light as it does serve to be a subdued/relaxed release in their progression. I guess it feels a bit more humble as it doesn't try to attempt to show off on the surface, just discreetly.

don't get me wrong but sometimes it's frustrating asking you guys anything... shitt attack already explained to me what's it called and how does it work... i just need someone to confirm that: ZOOM IN IS NOT THE SAME AS PUSHING A CAMERA CLOSE TO AN OBJECT... the same way that a: ZOOM OUT IS NOT THE SAME AS PULLING A CAMERA AWAY FROM AN OBJECT... i have this issue cause i asked some photographers and they said that they're the same... and they are wrong, right??? gonna repeat myself, if the processes were the same they would cancel each other and the image would remain the same... zoom in+pushing a camera away from an object at the same time, would lead to a static image... thanks

yes new simcity looks glorious, definitely gonna get it

80s were largely homophobic and about being "cool" imo

leaked gamestop packaging for Bungie's Destiny

yeah I don't see a problem with older kids/adults enjoying more child-like / innocent forms of entertainment. The whole "act your age" , "just do it" generation from the 80s onward has really fucked up society.

Sure, Autechre's name around here is seen as a reliable, mostly consistent, great electronic band, but I am not sure if it can be always assumed that would be the case (negative comments @ irlite in YLC). As I think new material by AE, Afx, Boc, being highly anticipated, is measured with more scrutiny than if it were to be released by a no-name on YLC. Watmmers don't all stand together on their views on those artists, sure, but generally there is some level of appreciation for all of them... therefore their output has been the major component to expectations and with that and their individual personal styles, new material is embraced because it can be placed in contrast to prior memories that are of influence or euphoria. There's something grand with hearing each release when they are first out and awaiting to see what will be explored next. Perhaps that is the wrong way to look at it, but you can't really get into a stimulating conversation very often with someone you just met. It is much more likely that you can achieve that with someone you know, so you can vaguely anticipate the responses and configure your receptors to better adapt and play along in the conversation. tldr.. A constant familiar fog

First time I heard irlite and the following this was essentially my reaction, though a bit more mental breakdown/jack torrance After saturating this album with quite a lot of attention, it still is surprising and isn't tiring. So while it may still be early and this post is redundant and repetitive, I am going to continue to emphasize how pleased I am with this album, plus this thread's enthusiasm has been genuinely fun and enlightening. Some have said that if this were to be released under a no-name musician there would not be this much excitement, and to that I have to ask, why would it be preferable to have less excitement towards any form of creativity of this caliber? I understand that it is true that WATMM has a fanboy approach to certain artists, but everyone has their most sacred. Which does not have to entail putting things in competition against each other. This thread represents more than just the excitement for one album, it reveals the bridges between our worlds and makes humans all the more strange and interesting.

I have also noticed how well this album flows. It really works best as one complete listen with an intermission between disc 1 and 2. And when I attempt to just listen to select tracks they never have the same impact as in context. This was also the case for Actress's RIP, its core atmospheres, emotions, and rhythms are cleverly divided and paced so that each track when finishes, washed over onto the next track, mending them together in a way... despite the actual transitions not having any seamless features. Same idea I think was explored on Drukqs, the large gaps of silence provide the listener time to recall the past and configure it in their mind, so that when it is recalled it is amplified by something complimentary. And I guess I should also note Burial's newest long tracks. They also have this technical disjointed layout, but like a symphony orchestral there is a thread that keeps us attentive to the present because of the cumulative progression and build up. For example on EXAI, spl9 first 3 minutes feels a little unnecessary once the second half fully explodes, but in context to the previous track the first 3 minutes are a nice cool off. And the melodic tones throughout the album, which almost sound like symphonic elements from 2001 space odyssey, tie together the tracks like deep connective tissue or a double helix. I'll have to give a more detailed examination of how it progresses, but at the moment it certainly adds atmosphere, as well as an emotional core to each representation of time and place. And every track main structure (beats/rhythm) is nicely paced and unique.
