Got up at 5.30am to listen to elseq1 before the kids wake up. It sounds to me like they are clearing the post-Exai decks, first AE_Live and now studio jams. After totally spluging on the live stuff, I think I'm going to do these one at a time. There's a lot going on. Loving 13xO step in a really Quaristice kind of way. Not loving the pricing, but I'm mostly broke thanks to Radiohead.
Dublin is an absolute monster. I played Brussels first, but it didn't clickso much - possibly 8am wasn't the best time for it. So far it's all about Dublin. This is exactly why I have massive loudspeakers.
It's back. 30 Ms Short has no download tab though.
This truly is the best time to be housebound and on painkillers. It's an upside I wasn't expecting.
Edit: Download restored. And relax.
Just made it to recks on. This just gets better and better. I was a defender of Oversteps, in a 'remember how happy we were when we made Amber' kind of a way, but this is just in a different league. I'm actually glad I have a 4 hour train journey tomorrow night...
Doesn't seem likely that the 24 bit wavs were unmastered but it is possible I suppose that they are audibly less compressed or differently mastered in some other way to the 16 bit versions. since the site is down I can't get an alt version to comapre. That blast of white noise was a bit of shock though. I'm listening on some fairly serious equipment and other than that obvious glitch everything sounds fine to me. Huge, spacious and most importantly (musically) 100% killer. Best Ae since ... erm Draft?. Maybe best Ae, period.
+1 for the Jane Weaver. Unexpected and really enjoyable.
Also - I'm listening to this right now

and it's very good I think. From Jon's Soundcloud page:
"Every sound on Cafe Kaput KAP003 'Music For Dieter Rams' originated from a small alarm clock. Contact microphones recorded various aspects of the clock and fragments of these recordings were used as the raw building blocks".
