    The 2023 sets still have to be released though.

    I guess 23 - 24 will be released together in a single bath

    and if the tour is ongoing in winter 24/25 it will be released even later.

  2. yeah, shit. a friend just told me now about Steve Albini's death. gonna put on my "shellac" t-shirt - the one I bought from his hands while he was selling his merch sitting on the border of the stage, right after a show.

    rest in peace.

  3. Hi folks, re-selling my ticket for AE live 07 04 2024 @ Antipode / Rennes / France

    it seems no one  was interested here (according to my previous posts, got no response) but in case someone is interested now, here it is :

    Dont sell your ticket yet! I’m still deciding and will let you know next week 

    Hi @Fairuzosman, thanks for your proposition, but I didn't find a friend to drive me up there, and the date is getting close so I have to re-sell it now.

    I’ve got both tickets for Paris and Rennes and most likely I won’t be able to make it for the Rennes show as well 

    oh but, just thinking, , so do you have a ticket to re-sell for the 7th april show in rennes ?

    if so, I could maybe bring a friend there and he could drive so I could go !!!!     I was about te re-sell my ticket but I'm holding this back right now.

    let me know, PM me please thanks.

    Warp gave out the NTS Mix in lossless quality for New Year's Eve (Jan 1st for me) to anyone that bought Be Up A Hello on his site/Bleep

    maybe for pre-orders only ? or aviable only for a short period of time ? I bought Be Up from bleep few days after release , and don't have a download option for the NTS mix in my bleep account.  pretty shure my nts mix file comes from a soulseek download.     ... anyway, nevermind.

    had to google NTS mix so maybe it’s not even supposed to be available? Found it on SoundCloud later and yes it whips ass but would prefer to pay the artist 

    I have a .wav file here of the warp30/NTS mix, but can't remember where from,  probably soulseek, so probably recorded from the NTS live streaming (so a.wav but not genuine .wav quality)

  9. I'm still on V.8 and happy with it - while using like 2% of the software features -  lol :dadjoke:

    ... well actually I just use midi clips and c.c. to send to hardware stuff, that's why. + a small bit of audio loops sometimes, or samples.

    Spoiler

    and wooo ....I didn't even paid for it ...shhhht..

    but loads of very interesting things in later abelton stuff, might go up for it one day..... maybe.... maybe.

  10. oops - edited because pressed "enter" before finishing writing it all

    well, had a few listen to the album last days, my first feelings are :

    - could be an aim of a "let me show all the things I can do -from guitar to rave, and a resume  from my first album style to my last album style, " -and this, quite well done -  but it might not flows well as an album... says, compared to Be Up A Hello , wich had a perfetct flow to me. (tough I need more time to get this new one fully , I might be wrong on that, too early to say)

    - the jazz-guitar-hero + full-on chords progression / almost abused hard-rock-show style on the second track (enbounce) is really not my cup of tea but I know he will always goes in that style sometime and I'm not angry at him about it

    - Wendorlan / Duneray / Akkranen / Domelash are top-notch pusher stuff. like what he did before, but still with a bit of push-forward production skills.

    + Akkranen does have some go plastic vibes for shure.

    - Stromcor has that jazz-bass lead but I like more the jazz-bass style than the maximalist-guitar-hero style,  and in this track, the bass / jungle melting works well, it got that same felling than some early tracks from hard normal daddy / selection sixteen - but with a faster tempo.  actually really good track.

    overall, I'm happy with the release.  

    + I feel like if someones already likes squarepusher he  might likes this album, but for those who dont', they will definitely  hate him .... if that makes any sense...

  11. well folks , I was happy to go to  AE live on april 7th, had my ticket since a few month, but for a particular reason, I clearly can't make it.

    ...because, few weeks ago , I got tested THC-positive on a random police car control at 8.A.M while going to work,   .... come on cops, I did nothing wrong , just have a spliff the day before.....  well okay this could have happened  to me in the last twenty years , I know how this works here , but still.... ok I assume it , no worries, got my driving license suspended for 6 month , ok nevermind........ but  : now I have a tribunal appointment on april 8th at 8.A.M :facepalm:  

    .... 350 km from the gig to here without a valid driving license, no friends going there, trains shedule don't match... so probably no ae live for me  ....

    so, If someone is interested to get a ticket for 7th april (Rennes - France  ,  sold-out  ).....  I could re-sale mine. 

    cheers.

  12. ha !   @ignatius you got me with that one just before going to bed , so now 1h30 later and two beers later .....   lol

    - I particulary like how the [ dancersvideo  / ae tracks ] memes combination just brings out the hip-hop ADN of their music upfront - even with the weirder tunes.

    - all the "housepets" related memes are fun. quite devoted from a true fan I guess.  (don't know what is that housepets comic thing but will have a look, seems fun)

    - some memes I just quite don't get the point - but it's because I lack  internet / usual memes culture to get them.

    - smileys-related ones are awful (or I don't get the point)

    - the over-reusd memes with just a bit of a sample when someone (kids or cats or whatever)  hit something are really stupid but yet pretty fun .

     

    ok good night folks    :cat:

  13. yo ! I could not  join the listening party coz working, but reading your last posts, it looks sooo promising.

    digitals aviable tommorow , right ?

    This track fucking rules. It's so alien and futuristic, yet so visceral and funky-groovy. It's as if you're watching Arrival but suddenly, the aliens start rapping and breaking. Sounds to me like a proper block party if thrown by Autechre. The way the entities are taking turns feels so much like they're having some sort of breakdance battle or freestyle session going. One after another, everyone is showing their moves, with the other guys standing in a cipher, bopping their heads, clappin' and snappin'. A prime example of Autechre showing their Electro roots without ever being trapped within the confines of any genre.

    yeah that's it man, well spotted.

    Fuck yeah, I'm pressing PLAY again.

    well now you have me pressing play , crank up the volume, and open a beer instead of starting the shit I have to get done in the house :whistling:

    awesome track for shure. had this track a lots of plays too.

    Do you remember a few months ago when Osama Bin Laden's 'letter to the west' went viral on tik tok,

    no I don't , and I can't read your link because it pops up cookies management and 'please unlock your ad block' or stuff , so have not time to deal with it right now,

    but thank you for the link, will dig it a bit more after writing.

    it made me think that there are maybe content moderators that do the opposite of censoring and banning. Instead, they find things that will influence young people to have a negative view of their own government in America, and then they somehow use the technology and algorithms to amplify that content. This is all just speculation, but it would be a very Chinese thing to do (from a propaganda war perspective).

    yep, well those browsing/reporting side-jobs I was talking about, was all set-up to help china government to do their propaganda banning content that could be ambarrasing for them (for the chinese government I mean)

    so not shure what's your point, ( I'm pretty shure we are on the same wavelenght about all this - andi if not, that's what discussion and arguing is made for - I mean it's ok I just wanna be shure to understand what you mean )

    If someone will use tiktok as a backfire to fight agaisnt US gov propaganda, farewell,, but by doing this they'll also help integrist terrorist or chinese dictatorship to  legitimise their shit on the other side. I mean, well, this is all about propaganda right ? this, on both sides. don't wanna fall in the "it's all black or all white " manichean view of things but I assume thinking that facebook could be a US watching / propaganda tool as tikitok is a chinese propaganda tool. dunno, I'm pretty lost about this tbh.

    It's really hard to sum-up in a few worlds but if I come back to my first point, kids being sticked on those kind of apps just tilt-up something wrong to me somehow.

    I usually stick on - almost -talking strictly about music in there (watmm), but this subject has got me in recently, and as the title of this thread says, "social media and it effects on our minds and life", so I'm talking about this these days - (watmm is my social media in some ways   ha ha ) so this thread (as do others) is really interesting and get me upward. there's lots of topics I read, and even if I not comment back, there's been lots if very interesting readings in there for me.

    I never had a facebook, twitter, intagram, tiktok account or whatsoever, ( shoul I ?)but I'm totally okay with people using those apps, I'm not a fucking regressive man or stupid boomer, it's just that I don't need it, I don't ever have a smartphone, but due to that siuation, it's hard to keep in touch and understand what's going on,in all this and that's why I keep on reading this thread and try to understand what's going on. (and also talking with people of course, I'm not sourcing only from watmm of course) - but very interesting posts from you folks all along the way.

    - edit :  re, about kids, it's all about education and accompaniement, let them use everything, but let me being able to explain them what it is. so let me make the effort of understanding what's going on so I can be a bit objective.

    it's a Chinese surveillance platform.

    well the report I saw (wich brings me on talking about tiktok on this thread) was also  investigating about this fact, but I did't want to go about it there, because I have a lack of knowledge about it, and going into paranoid /disinform was not my point.   but yeah it's blurry. dunno.

    did you try tiktok yourself? its pretty good and one of the best algorithms out there.

    ha ! I admit I did not fully ty it yet.   for shure I might find interesting thing, or have a nice time watching random vids for relaxing like I could do on youtube sometimes ,

    so I'm not saying tiktok is the devil .   I was more about kids and screens.   - and lol maybe I'm frustrated not being able to spend a whole sunday watching stuff because I got lots of fuking things to get done these days so I might over-react as well.

    they wind up "homogenizing the user base." I definitely agree that this is what happening

    yeah, that's what's frightening.

    I acknowledge that this is not the be-all-end-all of the effects and uses of technology, that there are positive uses as well.

    yes surely. hopefully.
