  1. Yep Known(1) is ace. I love the squiggly solo voice.

     

    Was listening to On The Corner in the car today. Similarities between electric Miles and autechre really struck me. Especially listening to Mr Freedom X/Helen Butte in comparison to, say, t1a1. The long form exploration of a single theme, retaining the same groove throughout but constantly shifting rhythms and texture. Similarities in form and content.

     

    Also my wife hates autechre and Miles (actually, all jazz) equally.

     

    I have similar (but different) feelings with AE_Live too, like hearing different contemporaneous recordings of jazz groups playing the same material but completely differently every time.

    Nice shout, I've noticed the similarity with later electric Miles and AE, too.  Slightly shifting grooves with painterly applications of unusual musical phrasings and tones, escape scapes.  On the Corner makes me feel like I'm in the middle of a road with groups of people fighting on each side, totally paranoid.  The only two times I almost had a soulshifting panic attack at work were with On the Corner and AE_LIVE_DUBLIN.

  2. Ain't a trunk to me 'less it can fit a 12" long player and a donut.  Ideological preferences aside, those who I can get TECH copies to in chronological order of request, I will do it.  I expect not a fortnight of wheelbarrowing.  Like I said, I'm guessing that Todd will set a customer limit, due to the exclusivity and the whole idea of it being an in-store promotion.  I doubt I'll personally be able to get 15 copies whether I bring a couple of mules along or not.  I'm looking into it.  Maybe I'll break down in the store, peel off my face and say "hey man, us WAtMMers just need some wax".
