    AE_STORE Is Live!

    in Autechre

    Posted

    Just want to shout out that AE_LIVE sets seem utterly underrated in the musicsphere. I love all the different versions and enjoy the different moods and tweaks. They should be treated as proper "album" releases by the press, online reviewers etc in my opinion yet they're simply not talked about - the tracks, the moods, the production, the recording, the setting, the place in the larger catalog etc.

    I'd LOVE a vinyl release of , say NAGANO... how amazing would that be?

     

    Here's to the recent sets getting the same treatment!

    ok people - favourite AE_LIVE set?

     

    Mines a toss-up of Nagano2015 or Dublin2015  - just superb elongated tension builds,  mighty fine drops, excellent jamming of particular sonic layers. For me peak 'chre

    Im generally about 5 years behind on their stuff so finally getting into Dublin18  -even though i was there and loved it - i didn't get it at the time but now i do. This years sets - probably when im 50 i'll be all "a-ha"

    Still to truly absorb NTS/Elseq and even Exai  -although getting there and at least they're becoming recognisable! 

    Is this just me?

    Triggered (not like that) by the recent AMA where Sean talked about making Parhelic Triangle with elastic bands and a shoebox (! - but also - of course) I found this video on YouTube. Hadn't seen it mentioned before so I thought I'd bring it to attention (did a cursory search and nothing popped up immediately on here). It's a pretty great visualisation IMO, I watched it just before sleep in the dark and it did a nice number on me 'ed.

     

    Great find!

    Yep total shit. 2/10  The actress gets those points. CGI was atrocious. Zero extra pred lore to the canon. Terrible sound design. The french asterix characters were so dumb as were the other Kamanchi characters especially the elders - standing around like muppets. 

    Also..glaringly obvious. Predator does their thing against a hunter/gatherer tribe. Thats like Usain Bolt entering a village sports day. did i mention the CGI? awful

    Absolutely terrible. Predator is the perfect action movie with zero substance. It's about characters who don't know what kind of a movie they're in. It's great!
    Prey has nothing to say and there's zero suspense because you as the viewer know everything there is to know. It's kinda like the The Thing prequel. Needless.

    Another excellent AMA from Sean - love his openness - like a lot of my mates. chill, takes no shit, same humour, same critical eye. Just a wonderful person on top of their game and what a really amazing sonic game. Can;t wait for Confeld re-release

    Does anyone know where i can checkout the music twitch jams Sean did/mentioned? Missed these

    Maybe he was just having a bad night, but I met probably every major artist from the WARP/Rephlex/SKAM axis back in the day and he was the only person who ever asked for the backstage to be cleared before a gig. Then he went onto play an hour or so of noise at the start of his set.

    In terms of soundness, Bola, Pole, Mira, Vibert and Keith Tenniswood were all super nice as well, and Ed DMX, he was over a fair few times.

    Was that the Go Plastic set at TBMC? He was late alright and I heard after he was cranky AF? Great bloody set though but many folks annoyed

    I've whiled away my days over the last few months digesting all sorts of youtubes, podcasts, tV series etc about UAPs - and Bigfoots, Skinwalker and all that shit. Most of it is American-centric but there's sprinkles of UK and other counties takes on "the phenonomae".  Ive been intrigued and bemused and basically have come down on the side of Stephen Greenstreet - basically that for all the genuinely "i don't know what that was" shit theres 1 million times more vacuous commentary, theories, banter, and ad nauseum discussions of  what-ifs. And there seems to be  a load of semi-official shisters and charlatans totally co-opting and the zigest fior their own fame/likes/hits. I particularly like the absolutely cold-hard Spockian logic of debunkers like Mick West but also have time for I-want-to-believers like Chris Lehto, former US airforce pilot and  a few others..

     

    BUT now Im ready for some satire!..................... This whole subject is utterly ripe for a proper pisstake especially the rabbit-holey earnestness of the True Believers especially but also the other side  - the digging-through-the-truth "somemthing Is going on" moderates through to the debunkers.

     

    Anyone point me to some light-hearted fucking relief from the sea of fantasy and counter-fantasy?

    I arrive late (for unknown reasons my connection has been interrupted for two days) but I see that others have posted a bootleg, and of definitely higher quality than mine. I corrected all parameters of my recorder, but since there is no specific volume input, the bass still saturate. In any case, here is my shitty version:

    https://sendgb.com/okTrpCGaZqR

    Now I understand why the comments from the previous date were so dry: after such a thing you can only write "wtf" or similar. Impossible to describe what happens at that time, and bootlegs, even well-recorded ones, are nothing more than vague souvenirs. I try anyway: the behavior of the sound is indefinable, melodies and rhythms move, overlap and slide over each other; everything happens constantly, without the need for an apex (actually there are, but not in the traditional sense: it is an elusive world, on several levels, and plastic like never before).
    One of the most intense sonic experiences I've ever had, for an hour I dropped all the shit I carry on my back, and became something else, of which I remember little, except that everything was totally absurd and perfect.

    Thank you Ae.

    Thanks for the upload - it sounds gorgeous. Very liqidy

    That was you in glasses?!! I was the one dancing next to you lovely Irish lads wearing an arthur russell shirt, think I told you about the oberlove chords during the intro 

     

     

    Hey man - yep.. lovely to meet you too, Good spot on the Overlove track.. I was all confused with that slow intro which was excellent.

    what a set though - blistering! Could've gone on another hour easy - excellent niche-crowd vibes too with plenty of room.

    what else you see?

    My highlights were:

     - autchre being more autechre than ever

    - moshing to lightning bolt

    - discovering Idles and how they're woke AF

    - Richard Dawson loopiness

    - NOT queueing for drinks but exiting festival to hotel across the road bar which was 1000 x faster
