    is SIGN anyone's album of the year? Pretty sure it's mine. I can't get over how good th red a is, every time I hear it I lose my mind a little bit more. So, so good!

    Both SIGN and PLUS ended up on the Top 10 bestseller list of my local record shop. There must some decent people go shopping there...
    (I bought them as pre-orders from the AE Store of course, because I'm even more decent then they are... ? )

    some pops in the vinyl of this for me. hoping it's just because it's the first listen and it's really dry and so possibly some static electricity causing it. otherwise sounds nice on vinyl.  my Be Up A Hello vinyl is perfect though so perhaps the lathe cutting the autechre's vinyl is aging out. will have to see how it performs going forward. fingers crossed the pops aren't in the same places ?

    Need some good music like Autechre

    I don't know if his music is anything like Autechre's, but I recently learned to know the music of Ben Lukas Boysen, and he cites Ae as one of his inspirations:

    Quote

    Born in 1981 as the third child of opera singer Deirdre Boysen and actor Claus Boysen, his classical music training on piano and guitar began when he was seven years old; the works of Bruckner, Wagner and Bach laid an important foundation. Rediscovering this music shared with his parents — united with the sounds of Autechre, Cristian Vogel and Jiri.Ceiver to Pink Floyd and Godspeed You! Black Emperor — brought back an understanding of why he wanted to write music in the first place.

    Sauce: https://www.erasedtapes.com/artist/ben-lukas-boysen

    Some of his works under the alias Hecq show the Ae influence more perhaps, but I like his works under his own name better. It's good as Autechre are, but it's not like Autechre.

    How did you get into Ae?

    Oh I think I have a VHS recording of an earlier warp docu on mtv. I think it was wap100 time, not sure. 

    I remember on a warp docu on the german Viva TV at the wap100 time. There are sections of it on YT.

    Also, I have auditioned my collection through various audio gear and have to say Marantz receivers truly do AE justice and if you are lucky enough to crank it up to “I feel it” or “11” in other parlance.....ducking wow!!

    Yep, I can testify to that too. Marantz is great for the 'chre.

    If the autechre bandcamp page is legit as it appears to be, I would suggest its cheaper for warp to run things via bandcamp and close down the individual bleepstores as servers?

     

     

    Might be, but atm we have no sauce for AE LIVE 16/18 and Warp Tapes...

    I wrote an email to the customer service, that they might want to look into this.

    We agree this might be confusing, but this is currently how things have been set up by the label.

    We will pass this on to them to see what can be done

    Jumping in to voice my support for the PLUS -> SIGN theory. M4 Lema totally reassembles the disintegrated parts of TM1 open. 

    I have a third option for you:

    SIGN -> PLUS -> SIGN

    As much as I’ve said PLUS is totally great, I don’t really get ii.pre esc (or esle 0, though that ones a bit of a moodier listen at least.) lux 106 mod has maybe more to dig into than either I think, but in truth also feels a bit weak. Anyone really like these? They kind of just dampen the flow and aren’t interesting in a pretty way either. Even if they had been on NTS I’d find them low ‘meh’ points. 

    I like these very much. And I think they are well-placed in the context of the album. Especially the burst of joy of lux 106 mod after the almost bleak but tense ending of ecol4.

    Apropos: lux 106 mod - might that be a Oneohtrix reference?

    So much head scratching.....  

     

    Here is the cliffnotes version:

    SIGN is to Oversteps as PLUS is to Move of Ten.

    Zen version:

    Less analysis, more enjoyment.

    I don't see it so. 

    Move of Ten is imo a companion piece to Oversteps. A little brother. It's own thing, but sharing some genes.

    PLUS is a continuation of SIGN imo. The second half. Part two.

    But I agree with your zen version 100%.

    don't get me wrong btw: i think the tunes are fucking great for the most part. but i fail to see a unifying vision like on SIGN that'd qualify it as an album. genuinely curious if it's just me. maybe i shouldn't let the term "album" eff with my head too much. when i think about it confield, draft and exai also were quite fractured but there still was a kind of common athmosphere / flow that drew them together. somehow i don't quite get that on pulse, especially towards the end.

    Oh, you meant that meme seriously? I thought it was irony...

    I change your mind:

    SIGN = main event, first part
    PLUS = main event, second part

    Listen to them back to back. Both will open up and change.

    caveat: though i do drive a motor-vehicle

    XD I'm a BP employee... We have this shit you quoted always somewhere in the office... in elevators, cafeteria walls, you name it. 

    I laughed so hard, as I first saw the PLUS cover... the branch I work for was called "BP PLUS" XD

    i totally agree the art is better than on elseq or exai. on the physical copy I think it looks pretty sweet. the superbright orange color of the inner sleeve works really well.

    Elseq was a digital release. It's hard6unfair to compare. 

    Exai has a very sweet inner design imo.

    And I like the SIGN/PLUS design too.

    Okay, I guess nothing ever will beat Chiastic and Quaristice designs for me, but I can live with that. It's to much a first world problem for me to complain about the cover of my favourite bands next amazing album. I accept what it is.
