The Boyz will be back in Kraków, Oct. 6! https://www.unsound.pl/en/dada/news/1st-announcement-passes-on-sale

Haven't visited the WATMM for a while and.... what a nice surprise! I'm at my 1st listen now and WTF is going on here?! The wailing of metal scrapes intersected with the drilling beat around 19 min is everything right now.... Weren't they supposed to go soft on SIGN and PLUS?

So why difficult people like Autechre?

A few nice words about our all-time favourite:

Sounds lush, but feels abruptly finished. It could easily be twice as long...

Achtung, Aechtung! A new remix from the boys incoming: 01. Stakker Humanoid 02. sT8818r (Luke Vibert Remix) 03. sT8818r (A664 Mix by Autechre) 04. sT8818r (Mike Dred Remix) De:tuned will release sT8818r Humanoid on December 3rd, 2021 Artwork: The Designers Republic https://detunedrecords.bandcamp.com/album/st8818r-humanoid

Even despite piano being 'stupid'?

What was the reasoning behind not releasing both SIGN/PLUS together? Why promotional focus has been mostly on SIGN (so far at least)?

Yeah! Do you think the tshirt is slowing the stuff? Mine hasn't been posted yet... Can't wait to get it in my greasy hands and compare how different it sounds from the headphone experience so far. Man... si00 opended up so much for me yesterday. It was like a clam. Soft & wet. The skeletal percussion & underlying menacing bass was a real emotional fuckery! Why are you playing with my emotions Autechre?

Das Autechre! A review auf Deutsch! https://www1.wdr.de/radio/cosmo/musik/musikserien/reviews/autechre-signs-100.html

The Wire has spoken Autechre SIGN Warp CD/DL/LP Autechre’s propensity for excess over the last seven years – numerous mixes, Warp Tapes 88–93, elseq 1–5, that eight hour NTS box set, and so on – may have obscured the eagerness of Rob Brown and Sean Booth to smuggle pop beauty into their fractured arrhythmias. To put it another way, we all might be forgiven for forgetting that these two have LPs like SIGN lurking in their compositional DNA. For all its hyperactive mania, 2013’s Exai was home to sloping, cybernetic gems like “jatevee C” and “YJY UX” where the duo’s inherent idiosyncrasies proved incapable of quashing all those sweet, sweet micro-hooks, jutting from their unfixed geometries like crystalline splinters. On SIGN, Autechre lean harder into new age bliss than one might expect. Opener “M4 Lema” folds soothing, glowing tonal sweeps around digitised spackles and clicks. “r cazt” lays out a dissonant, stormy drone, its synthesizers flaring up like space rock guitars. “Metaz form8”, with a host of extended overlapping chords and searching, psychedelic resolutions, is only slightly less linear than a Kali Malone or Sarah Davachi meditation. the cascading “all end” from NTS Sessions aside, they’ve rarely come across as quite this pretty, this ambient, this willing to sidestep the impossible 16 limbed IDM beat entirely. Yet one can always count on Booth and Brown to wild out pensively and endearingly. Thus there’s the electronic xylophone bongo bounce of “si00” and the felicitous “au14”, which sounds like the outcome of a long, very complex round of the memory game Simon. The tangled, baroque “sch.mefd 2” is another of those certified low-key Ae stunners – think “Gelk”, “Y7” or “Vose In” – that captivates, apparently without really trying. Lumpen notes chase each other up and down engorged, echoing scales; separate chords stalk a warm, bleary melody. A percussive continuity is established – a pop, an imitation snare, a trail of snaps. Seemingly locked in a cycle of self-reinvention and darkening as it advances, the tune is as puzzling as it is gorgeous. Raymond Cummings

I’ve been walking with Ae in downtown Warsaw for the past hour. Warm, autumn evening, leaves falling, bustling city around me. Sign feels like perfect auditory companion. Warm, lush and emotional but propulsive at the same time. It is perfectly paced: insane begining of M4 lema, sensitive si00, stuttering sch.mefd2 and a perfect closure of r cazt. Even abrupt ending of tracks dont stop the flow. Amazing how quickly the music clicked with me. Gr4 is the only track that is kind of meh at the moment... Anyways, big thanks Susanna & Roberta! You’ve done it again! Shit... completely forgot about gonkiness of au14!!! My baed!

Sign sounds incomplete without the BLOINK noise!

this is gorgeous ! what a closer!

Hope it's not the last one & the Japanese bonus will be streamed as well.

Th Red A: last side of the digital vinyl... In love with the wobbly bass....
