Feel like this would be a perfect introduction track to gradually coax someone into the madness:

Woah dubstep wobbles - thanks WWF, this really is some new hip tech. I'm in with a starting bid of 4 million $niceflabbytits

Good spot, yeah definite likeness. Romance's version is like a @brisk(3six) remix/cover of that track !

Now available on digital this morning too. Read the description and was going to dismiss this as a cheap bit of silly whimsy but something made me listen to the preview anyway and .... well the last track may well be my ambient track of the year already, simply devastating in its beauty.

OMG what chair is that?Is it microtonal?Definitely need to get that to sound like Airfix Twine!

Am I the only one that thinks the Noctis tracks are epic cheese? Unless I'm missing some kind of joke that Tom is playing. Rest of the album is great and will undoubtedly get lots of playtime.
I 'blindly' bought it for the Transmissions track that Rubin flagged and was totally on the same page. Like the soundtrack to a National Geographic documentary about extremely questionable theories of space travel

Just watched the LUNAR ORBIT Doc about the making of this album and a brief history on the Orb, good lil flick.
Was fun watching them make the album - would have loved to have seen more of that bit.
............
So I never did receive my copy of the Further Adventures Beyond Dark Matter dvd - is it just a Video of them at the gig doing the show w/ the visuals behind them or is it just a video of just the visuals? Always wanted it - anyone have a digital copy of that they'd share? All these years later and I wouldn't mind having it.
Does the doc make it clearer about what Alex's role actually is in the Orb ? Sounds like a stupid question but as every Orb album just sounds like the releases of whoever he's collaborating with, I've never quite got what he actually does ! Is he like the equivalent of the director of a film, not actually making the stuff just putting it all together ?
RE: Further Adventures DVD(s) - DVD1 is a 2hour multi-cam recording of Alex and Fehlmann on stage DJing/Ableton-ing their various hits at a club in Brixton in 2014. Screen in background has various visuals going on. DVD2 is those background visuals with a 52 min version/extract of the set (available on Youtube here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-gOU9JqJlQ )

This new online "braindance" "scene" reminds of the 90s "nu school breaks" thing. Or Big Beat, to some extent. Just lots of pointless Lo Com Denom music. Just really watered down to the point that it's almost entirely water.

Wild - a memory of me playing a demo of that game about 20 years ago popped into my head a few days ago for no reason. Was gonna see if it was on GOG but had no idea they'd done an updated one...

Does anyone still have the midi file handy for this? I'm late to the show and would love to tinker with it if anyone can share.
The midi file link is still available if you use the wayback machine on the site. It points to this file on a google drive:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5DtoTzWhflObFg1bld4MWNpTG8/view?usp=sharing
Ableton still has issues opening it properly, though I've had success by loading it in Reaper and then re-exporting it as another midi file

s'fine if WIndows allows your machine to update, not come across any compatibility issues. You'll not really notice any difference tween this and Win 10 (for better or for worse) so probably fine to stick with your existing OS at the moment if you've no real need yet to update

In the description on SC it says
Does this mean we'll get to see a proper release of this? The date/year makes it a bit too specific.
Good spottin - Yeah that definitely sounds like something official will be released this year.

There's some beautiful moments in it, but they're fleeting moments with no real connection to each other. If I was to guess, this is a collection of 30-60 second loops that he has made/collected over the years (perhaps as prototypes for longer tracks that never materialised) and rather than using them for outros at the end of "proper" tunes like he usually does, he has made an LP-length collage of them, using the familiar vinyl crackle to separate each section. It's sort of a Burial ambient compilation, which is still cool, but it feels so fractured that it's hard to really connect with, because by the time you're invested emotionally in the tune, the next part plays which is totally different and takes you out of the moment. With ambient, being in the zone is crucial and getting pulled out of it is jarring as hell.
IMO the artist Tape Loop Orchestra nails what is hinted at (and what I wanted) with Burial e.g.

Probably just a coincidence but, this bit 4 seconds in here:
Sounds just like the background synth here most clearly heard at 5:18 (but sped up a bit):

i'm interested because someone here or on the notchatmm Discord turned me on to this release which i'm finally going to purchase: https://speedyj.bandcamp.com/album/vrs-mbnt-pcs-9598-ii
track two is the key one, great shit.
Oh my god yes so much. Track 2 is just .... I've no idea how many times I've heard it ! So when Speedy J announced the digital remasters last night I couldn't wait to download a copy this morning !
Also only previously had a rather poopy rip of Loudboxer - so great to grab a FLAC of the bad boy !

Unfortunately so

ACID MT FUJI MORE UNRELEASED UNDER OTHER AFX ALIASES
Can't work out why he stopped using that alias back in 2015 - best music he's released this century I reckon.

What is the synth he’s using on Transmission #1 ? because it sounds a lot like Equation from the Windowlicker EP
Woah that's a darn wild track - Definitely need to check out that album now !

...and what is supposedly the final transmission has now dropped (updated link above). Downloading as I type.
EDIT: Certainly not a bad ending to the series, was a bit more bombastic and beat-y than I expected for a finale and didn't have some of the more instantly-jaw-dropping-downbeat sections of some of the previous 'episodes', but aye: A happy launch into space with some 90s Orb-esque and 00s Avalanches-esque expeditions! Highlight for me was the ambient/solo piano to funk-jazz freakout track from the 10-15 minute mark... Goodbye Earth !

Great liner notes from Sean about stumbling across Brian back in the '80s.
As I have limited space in the flat I get digital gubbins (unless it's super duper speshial - this was close to getting due to the fabulous tDR artwork job) so missed these linear notes. Is it related to this from the Ask Autechre Anything:
@SR4
have you ever met Gaz and Brian of FSOL? Are they really pompous, or just insane?Sean
"actually yeah in 88 i was in salford college and brian was there, i would see gaz but like, down the corridor waiting impatientlya guy on my course booked them to play at the riverside in hyde as stakker, and there were tapes going round college as well, they were college celebs for a brief time
i left college to buy gear after that, partly cos of their stuff being so good and him making it at home (rather than in the college studio)
they were key to us even existing, looking back if they hadn't been there i would prob be an engineer in some studio by now"

Field Day 2022
in Live Dates & Tours
Posted
My only memory of Field Day was Fennesz playing on a very tiny table on far too large a stage whilst it rained, and him slowing inching his laptop further and further away from the front of the stage so as not to get the rain on his laptop & guitar setup !
