Really like this. Obviously (intentionally?) derivative of KLF's "Chill Out", or perhaps a wilful misinterpretation; here, "chill" becomes "hypothermia"

Autechre, Luke Vibert remix Humanoid's 'sT8818r'
xy_politics replied to ignatius's topic in New & Upcoming Releases
Got my copy out for a listen and just noticed these - more a mini ae-autobiography than about humanoid.. great read! Turns out I went to the same college and did the exact same course as sean! 4 years later though, by which time I was pulling apart and trying to understand ae tracks in the same way he was with electro and acid imports from the states ? the library (cds section) there was where I discovered parmegiani and other INA-GRM artists - remember thinking "this is what autechre will sound like before too long".... ? -
New countdown, new release? [Aphex Twin Warp Store]
xy_politics replied to Time Tourist's topic in Aphex Twin
for me it's about transcending the origins (i.e. a bunch of machines, devices) of the music to present something greater than the sum of the parts; something that has a "persona" and captures and communicates an extra, human/spiritual dimension that exists beyond and can not be explained by the equipment used a "good" artist (many) might achive that once, or sporadically a "great" artist (g.com etc) does it consistently, for a whole album or sustained period of time a "genius" (aphex?) does all that, while also being strikingly original, without any obvious or dominating precedent hope that's not too pretentious, hah -

How to get a rock fan into electronic music?
xy_politics replied to SeparateHold's topic in Music Discussion
Usually it's the lack of a recognisable human presence (i.e. voice) as the centrepiece of the music that makes the music difficult to absorb If there is an appreciation for classical, jazz, hip-hop, even prog, then it's a million times easier But rockers/punx are a tough nut to crack. No surprise that ATR goes down well Some good suggestions already, I would probably add early Numan/Tubeway Army, 80s synthpop/rock, Depeche might be a good one Generally, go back in the timeline, easier to cross a stream than an ocean -

umm.. no idea really.. but a neural network, with a "model" trained on a library of music in similar style, spectrally constructs musical phrasing using an original song as a starting point, making it up as it goes along its merry way into the twilight zone look what it did to the bee gees
