    Warp Tapes WAV

    in Autechre

    Posted

    "Ae back to basics" sorta right ... I mean, Warp Tapes 89-93 might not be an official release, but its one none-the-less. Very thankful to them -- these are some nice tracks!

    Sorry if this has been brought up but you all reckon that 'YouTube sound collection playlist' might have some connection with the stuff they were doing back then? (and so with this release?) like maybe it was their sample library from back then?

    im just not not how ill beat horsey guy -- freaking jump scared me the first time i dropped down to that battle field -- was like "this is a boss fight, for sure" and then boom outta nowhere! lol

     

    MY NAME IS GYOUBU MISATAKA ONIWA!!!! ... the way that dude rides in is so badass, good fight.

    its a hell of an entrance!

     

    it's cool how boss fights blend more with the environment of the game as opposed to souls games where a boss fight felt more of a separate thing and u could tell it was about to happen.

    Managed to beat horsey dude and butterfly lady so the game is opening up a lot more now.

     

     

    Ugh, Lady Butterfly is giving me hell.... I've heard that fight is actually supposed to be more of a mid-game thing you come back to? Seems a lot of people are championing through it, her second phase gets me everytime, it's that damn homing magic attack she does while I'm rushing her.

    so found owl daddy at the estate, without giving to much away -- his directions lead to the drunkard boss right? im was exploring trying to find the cemetery but just did a loop around after fighting two spear dudes ... and also the dudes i could eavesdrop where horseback boss is are not there anymore! so i can't remember the hint! -- im just not not how ill beat horsey guy -- freaking jump scared me the first time i dropped down to that battle field -- was like "this is a boss fight, for sure" and then boom outta nowhere! lol

    sekiro is kicking my ass also, ... fml

    just a tip for one of the bosses you mentioned

     

     

     

    regarding the horse back boss

     

     

    in the area before the boss, there are some conversations you can eaves drop in on that might give a hint ...

     

     

    making reference to a possible item or weapon you may not have yet ......

     

     

     

     

     

    ohh thanks man, im guessing something to scare the horsey?

    I'm making okay progress on Sekiro, beat the first actual boss (not mini) and progressed a little further..Mman this game is tough, made even tougher by the slight input lag on the shitty hotel TV's hookup interface (still haven't moved back home post-fire.)  

    Getting an initial stealth drop on mini-bosses when possible seems the smart thing to do, dunno how I'd have beat a couple without it.

    Yeah it's a real guessing game for me as too whether a boss will do a sweep or thrust attack for example, and if I jump or deflect or do a shinobi skill, it may be too much of a guessing game for now so yeah a stealth deathblow came in handy. i was thinking, for bosses or mini bosses that need 2 deathblows, does that mean they ressurect also? maybe something unimportant to mention.

    sekiro is kicking my ass also, i love the game so far though and how from can always make a world seem much larger than what it actually is with their maze design. the fighting is awsome - with common enemies im doing a lot of stealth atm which isn't a good idea if u want to level up, but i found in most cases u can be undetected all the way to an item, if very sneaky and patient. im trying the defensive approach when in combat as well much less now though that i found the axe prosthetic addition. but the bosses... holy fuck, made to the drunkard with some help, but yeah i don't im ready for that fat bastard, also made it to the one on the horse and holy mother of god...

     

    the sort of smaller bosses leading to these were difficult too (chained ogre) however i found getting rid of surrounding enemies with stealth and then getting a sneaky first deathblow on the boss leaves u in a good position for a final deathblow. so much to delve into got work though fml

    seattle is probably my fav so far 4th straight listen, it's a standout for sure ... a lot of you were right.

    There were a lot of strung-out arseholes at the actual show, but the ending sounded even better in person.

    Yeh I get that, tbh it's very different listening to them live in person and at home or car or whatever so i can't hold judgement on ppl, i wish i had payed more attention and given more respect when they came to melbourne, it became to social which was kind of inevitable ...but it impacted the experience of actually listening to them negatively i feel.

     

    seattle has such a focus on more playful repetition though, and it groves like hell, the seem to have found more of a purpose for some motifs as well, rhythmically or melodically speking... it feels separate from the others for me, like a different state of mind, dunno

    listening through these on the drive to and from work and im loving finding all the subtle and blatant differences from set to set - i shouldve edited the set titles though so they play chronologically instead of alphabetically. Half way through nagano. also i forgot how good autechre is whilst stoned should b a prerequisite before listening, especially with their last releases being so long in running time.
