    Holy shit that was so ahead of its time, and very afx-y, I feel like he must have gotten some formative inspiration from this artist if not this album.

    The drum treatment, ambient sounds, and "unidentifiable electronic squiggy noises" are all there.

    I hadn’t used Ableton Live since v4 (I didn’t get along with it then, the workflow an UI just didn’t click with me). 
     

    I recently played with Bitwig Studio, really liked it, and decided to try Ableton Live 11. 
     

    I haven’t felt this inspired to make music in years. Now I’m jonesing to get hold of Live 11 Suite, I just gotta sell a kidney first

    you might want to stick to Bitwig since that's where you started, it tackles a lot of Ableton issues, namely latency, while bringing a lot of new features and maintaining practically the same workflow. if it wasn't for Max4Live, I would've switched to Bitwig, but sadly I'm hooked.

    I can't elaborate much more -- split a big WAV file up into smaller ones. The smaller files would tend to start with the attack of a note or drum.

    How would you do it with a gate?

    it's obviously best to have a sample editor or app dedicated to this function only, but it's possible to do it manually. don't know which DAW you use, but it could determine the level of ease.
    I would do a few passes of gating + consolidating + a decent amount of editing, basically


    1) first, duplicate the track with the single large file, since you'll be coming back to it after every pass
    2) on the duplicate set the gate to the highest dB range you've established, allowing only the loudest samples to pass through
    3) consolidate
    4) edit out the silences, leaving only the samples - preserving the space between them is key here
    5) after saving the samples mute them and throw them in the original track, muting those passages on the original file
    6) repeat the process for each dB range
