  1. just heard it. kind of weird, I kept expecting agressive farty bass synths and mashed up hip hop beats to appear but they hardly ever did. it stays kind of light all the way thru. I liked it though. Probably not as much as I liked Quaristice on its first play, but much more than Untilted's. Known(1), Qplay and D Sho made the best first impression. Judgin from past experience I now need to listen to it about 15 more times for my brain to digest all the atonal meandering synths and stuttery ambience until they coalesce into some familiar form, like a magic eye picture.
  2. Yeah theres quite a bit of old stuff on there that I hadn't managed to track down before, like the Peter Green stuff and old JP Buckle and Mike Dredd, I'll probably be getting all that stuff.
  3. Yeah good call, I haven't listened to his stuff for ages tho, I'll have to dig it out. Car Paint Scheme was my favorite, sounded weirdly like old skool Mantronix type shit but without vocals and a bit weirder.

    The Drukqs piano tracks are fascinating. I wonder if Richard has made other tracks in this vein before or since? I wonder how they would have been received had they been released alone as 'Analogue Bar 1' as originally intended. (Not sure if this is correct, I seem to remember someone [Joyrex?] offering this information at the time Drukqs was released. They seemed to come in for a bit of stick from critics who thought Richard was pertaining to some kind of lofty pretensions by releasing these tracks. I'd love to hear a bootleg of the Glastonbury set ('02 I think) where he played out the piano tracks but with beats on top. Never managed to ever track them down.
  6. Yes. Lots of people wanted an ambient autechre album and I think Quaristice is perhaps their most ambient. Probably a quarter of the tracks are beatless.
  7. Love the use of strings and reverb all over. Makes it sound like a vintage techno album thats been exploded and reassembled wrongly. Kind of has the warmth and beauty of the early albums mixed with the sour melodies and frenetic moments of the later stuff. Notwo sounds like Angelo Badalamenti mixed with Vletrmx21 Outh9x sounds like it would fit on SAW II Been looking forward to a studio recording of IO for ages. fwzE is fun
  8. Those track names are very much in the Autechre vernacular, if theyre fake, someones done their homework. Although I thought the Campfire Headphase tracklisting was fake at first because of the total obvious BoCness of it.
  9. I'm looking forward to whatever hi-jinx Ghostbusters III has planned more than the album itself.
  10. Phobiazero released the Untilted name and tracklisting before anyone else I seem to recall. edit: Its about fucking time too.
  11. I believe they heavily used the Roland R8 during this time.
  12. This is pretty nerdy but I think I can clearly hear this sound on the track 'Ghost Hardware' at 43 seconds in... and at 1.54 also Listening to Untrue now. So far awesome... More vocals and perhaps more uptempo than the first, but still retains that melancholy mood. Love the pitchshifting/auto tune on Archangel.
  13. http://music.guardian.co.uk/urban/story/0,,2198811,00.html interview with Burial here. Probably the only publicity he'll be doing for this album.
  14. I got a free Lowrey organ cause a community centre was shutting down. Only had to pay the removal costs. Ive had it about 4 years now and its totally dying I think the leslie is on its last legs, you get some nice warm crackly sounds out of it.
  15. basically its like the clean sciencey precision on d'n'b mixed with the bassy slow groove of dub.
  16. Anyone wanting to appreciate Confield deeper should track down ex-watmmer enceys' Confield Guide, a huge second by second essay on the production of the album.
  17. Its the oft maligned but damn handy dblueGlitch VST.
  18. Of course its common knowledge BoC are hardcore satanists. If you dont want to be a part of this, please leave the board, we've got virgins to sacrifice.
  19. Becaue they have a sense of humour? Because they like the uneasy atmosphere that it creates in the music?
  20. That comment Vibert made about people apeing his style and jumping on his dick - who do you think that refers to?
  21. Its that infamous metal cover. Something to do with Mike Patton I think
  22. So him and Squarepusher piss off a roof onto the clubbers below. How long before we see jars of it on ebay?
  23. Wow, I wonder if its gonna cover every era. I wanna know what Mike Paradinas's favorite Drukqs track is.
  24. yeah, I never noticed before, Ventolin is a little Kraftwerk isn't it?
