And yet dispite all that it seems absurd to consider those albums remotely equal! A lesser album! Not the same level of craftsmanship! Exclamation point!

So far I've only listened to krems and grachaflacgahachawachasomethingSo is the new group of sets continued evolutions of the set in the first few dates? Are there any elements that are entirely new brought in? Not that I won't buy and listen to them either way, but I'm curious if the set ever changes dramatically in actual structure and not just texture like the differences in the first 4?
It seems like there are some newer sounding parts near the end of each
They get through all the recognizable bits a little faster and then a few new elements show up

Took me until 2011 to finally enjoy draft
Most others I warm up to fast

First got into Plaid and Squarepusher when a friend of mine and I bumped into Trent reznor outside his studio in New Orleans (this was during a big NIN phase in my life in '99)
He gave us copies of rest proof clockwork and the maximum priest ep
The two bass hit remix was the first time I heard anything by Ae
A year later I was fairly into electronic music and a different friend kept telling me about autechre and LP5 but I never actually heard it
Their name kept popping up as I read more radiohead based stuff shortly after Kid A came out
Finally around 2003 my friend who first recommended LP5 dumped everything of theirs onto my iPod (he also put BOC on their so that is how that started too)
I played their whole discogrophy through while on particularly long car trip
Total fan boy by the time untilted came out 2 years later
Real question is why did it take so long to end up on watmm

Just finished off Dublin, so now I've heard 2 out of 4.
There was certainly enough different to definitely make these unique experiences
I think I still prefer Krakow.
There are some moments of serious split stereo fuckery that seem unmatched (if not completely absent) in the Dublin set
Still A+ aural insanity all around

Are you guys still compiling those remixes?

There can be no denying it is a reference to the old poker saying "card cause quay jaw"
-
Almost definitely?Well that track is almost definitely a nod to Albert Jacquard, who advocates that we deliberately shrink economies in order to avoid future economic and/or ecological problems. So the "plodding" beat with its different time sig, invoked ideas of a stagnant economy "plodding" along, or of economic practices out-of-step with reality?
I think the message/s behind this album is/are much more blatant than any before. With earlier albums I think they were just burying vague references in tracks for teh lulz, whereas with this album they really meant for it to be a crucial component of the experience
That's a pretty definitive statement for what amounts to just an interpretation/assumption
Who says it's not a reference to the Jacquard loom? Or some other thing that has nothing to do with any of this?

Insects for sure! I guess mine are just the insects that thrive at sub freezing temps :)
interesting. It sounds like old machinery in dry bushland, taken over by alien organisms/insects to me!I know I'm not bringing anything new to the table by saying this but Confield is definitely a razor sharp ice filled tundra. In the best of ways
But you know it only makes sense your finding the polar opposites of season, Australia's summer is my winter, plus I hear they call red "blue" there
And hamburgers eat people

I'm convinced all of you either have very lame friends or are making up some false reality in which girls don't like good electronic music
Almost every female I knew I'm my 20's listened to apex and boc, and while not everyone I know these days had the same taste it can't be I met all the worlds population of female warp fans

Re: girls and Autechre
I've know 4 girls I'm my life who are avidly into Ae, and one of the two people who introduced me to Autechre was female.
Essentially hanging out on 2-CT7 while two of my friends who didn't know each other were talking about music. Girl flips through guy's CD collection commenting "I see you like autechre"... Que 15 minute conversation. Some part of my mind held on to this and within a few months I had gone out and acquired all things Ae
-
Damn that's some good stuff
-
You can't even buy the digital from Bleep?
Pretty lame.
Yes it's quite lame
So far the only times I've been able to listen to Versions tracks is by finding individual songs that have been put on youtube or something similar
So lame. For my Meh attitude toward Quaristice proper, I would very much like to have some kind of Versions I can call my own
-
While mixing and matching various sounds from the album/versions/quadrangle can certainly produce a very good playlist of songs, in my mind this still doesn't change the fact that Quaristice (proper) is a bit if a weak album
The benefit of mixing songs from all the different iterations just tells me that with better care, Ae could have crafted something that holds up to the rest of their out-put
But they didn't (IMO)
-
But Quaristice ended up getting pretty fleshed out with all those versions.
So true
I would love to see the release of a Tomorrows Harvest: versions
-
A whole bunch of short tracks that probably would have benefited from being fleshed out properly
This is a really weird comparison to me - quaristice is all over the place, one of ae's most stylistically varied albums. But TH is so consistent in its style, maybe their most focused and least varied album so far.Put T.H. back on after a few months, WOW this Album doesn't work in Autumn/Winter.
PS:
I consider this BOC's Quaristice.
Perhaps it's gonna be their 'Quaristice' ... !
Seems like a fair comparison to me
-
petering out before they're over. I wonder how many people noticed this before boc brought it up in an interview?
A bit late addressing this point, but I had a sneaking suspicion I'd read people saying this before they mentioned it in the interviews.
Going back, I see Lumpenprol devoted this thread to that very topic
Which he posted June 3rd
Interview where they first mentioned delibreately tapering songs off was June 6th
-
I just look at Ae and their regular-as-clockwork releases and no-nonsense personas and wonder why the rest of the old IDM vanguard can't be the same.
