Haha!! Yeah, pretty much.

@jlobkob thanks! Releases like this make it worth having a good tape deck. I hope mine shows up today. I'm loving this album
-
I need this in my cassette deck. NOW.
-
I'm a little overwhelmed at how good parts of this are. It's fucking glorious.
-
-
Ordered the cassette yesterday. No samples up?
-
Now this one is more intriguing because it was uploaded weeks before the announcement and is the only video on the channel.
I actually really like this one.
-
The real question is - would you have rather BOC waited longer to release something, assuming it would have been better than Tomorrow's Harvest? (assuming of course you didn't like Tomorrow's Harvest)
I would've rather had a better album. The album sounded very rushed, although they've claimed otherwise as I recall.
-
Online polls for opinions about how much the people liked an album are essentially useless. Duh.
Still not getting this really. What is in fact a proper way to gauge people's feelings about the album then?
Do take in mind the polls I created are advertised on bocpages.org too, so it's not like only people from twoism or watmm are voting. The idea was to capture what boc fans think of the new album. I am not trying to troll over here but really interested in knowing why a poll isn't reliable according to you guys.
At the risk of dragging this out farther than is necessary, it's a bit silly is all. But again, my post was mostly in jest. Online polls are just silly fun, I get that. Nothing wrong with it. They only really serve to spark conversation on forums, social media outlets, etc. They're skewed and untrustworthy and often ridiculous and that's the point. I don't get why making a joke about something that's mostly a joke is worth debating. Move on people.
How about this, I say Semena Mertvyhk is about ejaculate upon the ruins of a decimated nuclear blast site, and the track sucks: discuss.
The track IS about that, but it certainly doesn't "suck". It's the best track on that album.
-
Yeah, I got mine today. Pretty fucking brilliant. It's a real quality press as well... I only wish the nice plastic outer sleeve wasn't split, but fuck it. It protected the awesome die-cut sleeve during shipping, so it served it's purpose.
-
Still waiting.
-
So, what rpm speed IS this record? I still haven't received mine yet.
Record speed has always been one of Autechre secrets (meaning it's irrelevant)
Exactly why I want to know. I want to play the track slower, on 33 rpm. Is it a 45 rpm or not?
A side is 45, AE remix side is 33.
I figured. Oh well, thank you.

Unacceptable.

I don't understand why I have to wait so fucking long for this.

Acro do you have a synth setup as well? Is that your Music Easel in your avatar?
My work station is far more modest right now. It's gone through various incarnations, since I've removed my computer from my creative process. Sadly, I have no modular synth like in my avatar, but would someday like to have one...

Bedroom set up?
Both set ups are ridiculously amazing Acroyear.
thank you
-
here's my set up:
Technics 1210M5G with Ortofon Arkiv stylus
Sony MZ-RH1 Hi-MD MiniDisc recorder
JVC KD-V400 Cassette Deck
Teac AS-M50 amplifier
That Minidisc player is very rare, AND the nicest portable Sony ever made! You must be very proud.
-
And then, there's my PREVIOUS setup..
-
Not sure if I ever posted a pic of mine! Not as pretty as acros but it gets the job done!
Parasound HCA1500A poweramp, pro-ject debut 3 carbon with an ortofon 2m blue (upgraded from the red!)
Sony str db-1070 receiver, and some vintage cerwin vega at-15 speakers. Oh and theres a velodyne dls-12 sub on each side lol.
Also a bunch of clutter for effect... thats it.
I bet it sounds amazing.. Looks like a great hang out spot!
-
Acroyear, I have serious jelly issues pertaining to your set up.
give me nao.
Lol.. I have a second system in the bedroom
-
Even better! She's a beaut. I bet it weighs about 7000000000000lbs lol. That's a beautiful finish on it. Does it still get enough airflow to keep it cool?
I'm a huge fan of vintage amps and speakers.
Thanks again! She's very heavy. There's about a 1" clearance in the back, which provides plenty or room for heat escape, so it's never been an issue thankfully.
