    elseq 1-5

    Fair point. I still don't have a track from elseq 3 either, so I very well may add it in
  2. Maybe the cheetah cassette is just unreleased squarepusher trax This is the next innovative step everyone's been waiting for Richard to take

    elseq 1-5

    I found exai to be their least accessible LP, but I came to it after a few years of not really listening to any new electronic music E: save for aphex and battles

    There is nothing minimal or shallow about chimer 1-5-1

    chimer 1-5-1 owns and is better than elyc6 onset

    Wait what specifically is the boomy sound? lol yes azatoth, that was the fake leak. it's time to hear the original Lol
  10. I've always taken LP to mean "the best 30+ min selection of music I can give you from the past 1+ years", this of course breaks down for really really prolific artists

    elseq 1-5

    #same I said as much in an live set from the Oversteps tour thread last night. I'm feeling the live sets the past 5-6 years more than I am the 'proper' releases (Exai, L-Event, elseq) and though all of the releases have some amazing tracks, overall they're sort of hit and miss for the most part. Exai was my introduction to autechre. It was immediately one of the strangest but best things I'd ever heard. Still is. untilted was my introduction to autechre. I was like, 'man this is the most pretentious unlistenable bullshit I've ever heard' and now it's my fav by them lol
  12. The samples sounded nothing like any SAW3 stuff. More of the same as in Syro. yeah, the track that was referred as saw3 sounded to my ears like an extended Playstation audio logo. that sounds like the best track ever!
  13. th...?Tomorrow 's harvest ? I thought that but what does that have to do with Aphex Twin?
  14. it still feels kinda surreal that RDJ is releasing music as Aphex Twin on Warp again, even if it's been like two years since Syro

    elseq 1-5

    Basically I want to say it's disingenuous to consider autechre's latest output "lacking melody", but on the other hand, I feel the need to qualify what I'm talking about in reference to the melody in an autechre track in a way that I don't with more traditional music, or even other electronic music. I feel like I'm using the word differently, which gives it a different meaning. it doesn't really matter in the end, because I like autechre so i listen to them, but there's a reason

    elseq 1-5

    an incomplete thought: melody is an expedient to effect emotion in a listener, kinda like the plot in a movie, right? so melody doesn't seem to be absolutely necessary for a piece of music to be effective, at least not the kind of tacked-down, immediately obvious melody that seems to be missing from much of elseq 1-5, as long as the music can be compelling in some other way (in rhythm, atmosphere, etc). there's glimmers of melody in each track, to be sure (latter half of 13x0 step as a prime example of what I mean here), but it's very elusive, kind of slipping in and out, and perhaps not the central focus.
