  1. ... one thing i've realised from reading this thread is that you guys are being mistaken as two cold technicians obsessed with virtuose modular prowess, when in fact you're just two sensitive guys obsessed with dreams. i don't know but there's a dreamlike quality to Exai i seem to haven't noticed before. maybe it's those huge frozen reverb clouds in Bladelores or SPL9 (@3'20)... but it's like your work has taken a new dimension for me. key stuff there
  2. it's my fave thing he's done it's weird cos a lot of my mates slagged it cos of the film quality, but i reckon it appeals to me even more than film cos i like some old video art as well the way it flows is amazing tho it's sad that he said he won't do any more, but he's old and i like enough of his music for it not to be a huge deal. but man, he was getting so good there He's certainly not retired yet. There was an article on him in NY Times this year mentioning he's working on a new script, which wasn't denied by Lynch http://www.nytimes.com/2013/02/24/magazine/david-lynch-transcendental-meditation.html?partner=rss&emc=rss&smid=tw-nytmovies&pagewanted=all&_r=2& The quote: what a beauty
  3. 1 both, beats for beats - tracks for tracks, but yeah i know what u mean, or we say, "so Sean, what'r u sayin'?" after a friend of ours - who is fully hiphop … pretty much sums it up. 2 yeah, its not quite the same response tho' 3 no, something more amusingly patronising. =) 4 i try
  4. bump: also - amazing set in toronto in 2008. music has always been a huge part of me, and that set literally changed my perception of music overall. do you guys like tool? u mean drumset IRL or Vdrums? u tried tinfoil yet or crackers (edible)
  5. 1 more 2 more 3 more yeah i'm not kidding,cos its just causing a wedge shape for most things i like, and in doing this as much as i can sort of feeds back in. even something as silly as hearing some new band doing something re-done say but as 'new people', as shit as it sounds, even that adds to it all. we get asked so many times ; when u were a kid what did u want music to be like in the future? What are you sippin'? tyskie atm.
  6. my mum, definitely thinks its cool, she prefers say early stuff, but she's into the new stuff too. she likes FSOL and so on. your hdd600 is called Son
  7. yeah this is a variation of the faves question i dunno man, fuck, you decide Your golden record track will be Drane 3 aye good choice
  8. wow, dunno. whats most universal here after all this?? bearing in mind now though there are more guests on here than users, so there might be some lurkers using this hallowed chant without having earned the pleasure. yeah loads, PE mantronix actually mostly hip hop yeah Dune, i did, i think i was too young to criticise it so i was lucky to have it memorised as perfect
  9. 'now this is fun' by depeche mode always gets me in a really up state, but it's not really euphoric in the way most people mean (i.e. 'too many fizzy synths') i know and hitler? how lazy you could have called it bobby cool, bobby it is, let's hope it's not a girl then. Will let you know in 6 mos thats a bit like my name, anyway bobby's nice for a girl too.
  10. whahah true dude. christ, u got me. its just that yeah easy to be silly with ppl s testicles, but yr offspring? what if the kid sues me in 30 yrs time or whatever ? can u sign something to make it all safe
  11. isoprophlex - afx mountain goat - amorphous androgynous polynomial-c - afx circles vicious mix - john & julie temple - jon hopkins jungle - jungle wonz allowance - isolee work harder/work softer - perc no.3 - VA chain reaction X2 - electric soul indicatif roissy - parmegiani from the hame hill - brian eno untrue - burial i could go on and on, mbe all diff contexts but pretty much euphoric to me
  12. dunno, haven't been played any - detroit guy right? . sorry any good suggestions? his classic releases on Tresor, Background recs http://youtu.be/bISOhHbwsMc and recent are not bad too (as Population One) http://hardwax.com/69500/population-one/random-variables/ he is kinda voodoo man yeah thanks , we like the magics
  13. yeah np at all, massively happy u found Beau, get any stuff of his basic data manipulation sculptured texturology mostly mind blowing - yet, too clean to be so, somehow. yr welcome, ok - like new york a lot. hope so!
  14. really not feeling the kazoo in here or the washboard stuff - thats totally wack, but the carpenter esque stuff with mellotronage at the beginning is nice - overall comes over as knowingly bad goofy. some sounds in it are good - like deep acoustic percs, but its not really focussing on any in particular, like needlessly switching to the wrong instrument every time i notice a good bit. seems like they're not 100% sure what they like imo. cheers Rob, interesting views on these tracks! (tbh i'm not into music making at all, and ehm.. know very little of the technical stuff behind the process. but I really appreciate your thoughts and opinions, very interesing). . oh.. and ehm.. feel free to consider providing something on the other q's to in my post, I'm really curious about the pule track for instance! :) oh and one more thing, I'm sure many in here are curious about this: *** drumroll please *** who would win a match of arm wrestling between Rob and Sean?? and a match of pool (8-ball, etc)?? sorry for all the nagging, I'm just very eagerly excited about the fact that I'm even having an interaction with the mighty AE! it feels strange kinda... in a good way of course! yeah ok, sorry if i was too nitpicky - hot/cold those trax. oops but yeah re: norway 'pule' - its quite a slinky number too so could be deployed to good use? funny someone posted that æ means 'I' in finnish was it? so yeah theres probably a few i think seans lower arms more chunky so i'd put money there if i were u. i might win pool. we'll run that test next outing and report. no prob man, I don't think it was too nitpicky. What do you think of Biosphere btw, while we're on the topic of electronic music from Norw? hmm yes I suppose pule does have some seducing powers, I'll keep that in mind! while on the topic... any suggestions on how to have more luck with the ladies/dating scene? all kinds of tips is highly appreciated! ah haha, æ is actually Norwegian again, and yes it's a dialect variation of Norwegian "jeg" which means "I" (æ is pronounced as a combination of a and e, as the form suggests). I happen to speak that dialect actually. Lot's of the vocabulary in our dialect consists of single vowels, like for instance the sentence " æ e fra Norge" means "I'm from Norway" Actually the æ vowel existed in Old English, as in words such as æsthetic and encyclopædia. Reminds me off.. .isn't the track name "dael" from tri repetae actually an old English word, "dæl", meaning "part" or "unit". In Norwegian the word for "part" is "del". (http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/dæl) pretty cool stuff this I think :) Awesome! I'm eagerly awaiting that report! =) Thanks alot man for ur time! ah yeah re Dael. i mean it could be said as dial, or dale or whatever, so i'm glad we came upon autechre, and like that start and end of = ae, it works well in my local ancient surroundings in many ways that are cool. so yeah. thanks for the details there norway cru hahah i don't think it was…. : -
