    The composition's very elastic, often it's hard to disentangle different elements from each other so distinctions between rhythmic, melodic and textural elements is blurred. The sound design is very natural, everything sounds like it's breathing or whining or coughing or something. Feels completely "off-the-grid", not at all tied to the piano roll. I read that the guy uses max/msp, so that makes sense. Also it's just very playful and funky, unlike a lot of experimental stuff. 

    Hard to describe really. There's just a very specific itch that autechre scratches, and as soon as I heard the second track on that it was a similar thing. 

    Thank you for this commentary on my album. It really hits the nail on my aesthetic intentions about my music, so for me it's a confirmation that I must be doing something right ?

    Nice tune. But also includes what I criticise about much IDM stuff. Track is not going anywhere but just a small idea, stretched to a few minutes. I'm wishing for more traditional track building or even more complex, as in classical symphonies. Seems like I have to do it myself ?

    Yeah, I can see your point. That's exactly what I'm trying to tackle right now with my compositions, the question of the large scale form. It's hard though ?

    Just finished this one, with that in mind: 

     

    Thanks for the comment!
