They've probably released all the music that they've created, heheh, slow buurn.
they said they made like 100 tracks for geogaddi tho
and in interviews they say their tracks start out as samples from jam sessions. id imagine they have hours and hours and hours and hundreds of hours of jam sessions

the level of enjoyment compared to audience iphone recordings is a billion times more
body covered in goosebumps at some parts.
i love being immersed in an experience where I have no idea wtf is coming next but at the same time I want to learn each moment of each one of these.

Awesome post, cygnus! Love it!
This might be kind of 'off topic' but do you guys think this is a new way autechre are releasing an 'album' so to speak? Might there be tracks coming after in the form of vinyl/cd? (From there new live patches/software)
Id be happy to wait until mid next year for say a 10 track LP, but not another 3 years! That's for sure.
What do you guys think/know about this?
We've all wanted this to happen though - so great to have it finally released, it's wonderful, but I'd always want me an Lp -> Ep vinyl/cd release with the artwork to admire and treasure.
There are a couple of reasons I'd love to see a new album besides these livesets. Old-fashioned perhaps, but here it goes.
Most important reason is that, imo these sets are filled with tunes to be heard on a huge set in the dark. This is not your average listening autechre, imo. This is turn up the volume, turn off the lights and feel the music autechre. Stop listening but be immersed and feel the bass. That's all bloody brilliant, but I'd like to have an album worth of listening tunes from ae as well! That means not the banging AE-tunes from these sets dominating your mind while you're playing it, but rather the stuff which can also be played in the background. Somewhat lighter. Perhaps more ambient. More melodic. Music made for smaller speakers, so to speak. (yeah, i'm prolly an effeminate sexist fruitcake)
Second, I'd like to be able to listen in smaller doses. Which is exactly what an oldfashioned album with individual tracks brings to the table. And I'm not interested to cut these livesets up myself. Although at times I'm pretty close at giving that idea a go.
Third, I'd like it if these tracks had some sort of definite shape. Again, old fashioned, but I'd like these experiments to lead into some final endstate where you can say: "ok, this is it. now move on to something new."
Anywhos. Loving these sets. And hoping a new album will see the light of day pretty soon too.
I sort of halfway agree. There's a massive advantage in having fewer perceptible track separations, sometimes they blend together in the live sets. I do like having tunes with names to be able to digest them more easily instead of a big 1 hour 15 minute blob, or in this case 9 of them (oh my god ty s&r). there are advantages to both I've begun listening to all these live sets and trying to find differences. I almost want to cut them apart myself so I can more easily compare individual tracks over time and sort of gain a chronology of how they evolved but I feel that would be counter to what sean n rob intended by uploading them as 1h long tracks
also the mastering on them isn't the most amazing, I do feel they are still sort of meant for a large live environment and not as much a headphones listening environment, or maybe I'm wrong
these are amazing but I would be a tiny bit disappointed I will admit if they never released another "real" album again and only ever did soundboard recordings, but I highly doubt that will happen lol but just saying. because this is difficult to digest. maybe we should abandon digestion altogether and listen in the moment and nothing more without any intention of being able to predict exactly what is coming next down to the last sound like I always aim for in official released tracks

such an amazing track, i love all the mfm stuff so much and the more milky sounding rdj album tracks. jesus richard PLS MFM
and so should this be considered a replacement of the old track, or another newly uploaded track during classification?

Thanks Herr Jan, here is the site were all the touched funds go Just-Give over 32K so far
and i can say now that the discogs guy is wrong on so many, I’ve not even heard of some of them.
I tried to put together an album that may have been a bit of fun for the electronica fans out there. the album is top notch and thats all that should matter,
I put so much of my free time into running touched music for macmillan cancer support and i feel like pulling the plug sometimes when i read stuff like this.
I’m only trying to do a good thing with music.
Don't pull the plug bro and ignore all the idiots

OMG MFM PLEASE

I'm a newcomer to cannabis and got extremely high last night then listened to music including Krakow (or was it Utrecht, fuck if I know)
I kept thinking "Holy shit this is so granular. It's granular. Holy fuck listen to those grains" and I heard the music as if it was made of grains of sound, only the AE soundboard in particular though none of the other music I listened to (Geogaddi, Shpongle - Nothing is Lost, Venetian Snares - Hospitality)
Just a very transcendental mental experience for me I've never heard anything like this musically. This was the second time I've been high on weed now. Amateur ya forgive me, OMG it was amazing to hear it's like I knew sean and rob's secrets after hearing those grains "Holy fuck these grains, I can hear each individual one and even the space between them"
lol
dude you've got a lot to look forward to if you're just entering the world of ae and weed. I often find i'll hear elements of tracks while stoned, that i've never noticed before, and then forever after that i can always pick that element out when sober. It can sometimes open up entirely new sides to tracks, that will then stick with you forever.
Yeah the very first time I ever got high I listened to Confield and it was pretty intense, it made me feel like heavy things were hitting against me. VI Scose Prose was mindblowing. This time though with krakow was even more. I can't even begin to imagine how amazing the rest of AE will sound when I eventually listen to them all high as well. I want cichli. god yes

Yeah, hearing all the soundcloud stuff is so inspiring! He is staggeringly prolific. It reminds me of something he said in one if those recent interviews. Sometimes you have to make a shit track just to get to that place where you can make a good one. It's all stepping stones. Makes me want to set some music making goals, like a finished track at least once a week.
Me too it's really inspiring and I like that some of the tracks on SC aren't amazing. Makes me think hey maybe some day I could be as good... (lolno but let me dream)
And btw he's made Cottage3 E no longer private! Indicator that it will be on an official release?

Just a note which might be useful (or not) to this thread - I heard an interesting theory that basically consciousness is an error - like, it appears when there is some kind of malfunction. As long as things function smoothly, consciousness is not required, but when there is some kind of deadlock, consciousness arises.
I'd have to do a bit of searching to clarify it more, but I hope you get the gist.
Yeah. I read a study where what we perceive as our conscious decision making is actually slow, lagging behind the unconscious mind's decisions
They tested by telling people to choose when to push a button, but instead of pushing it to just push another button with another hand or something when they've made their decision. That's not it exactly but I can't remember, but it's close enough
Anyway, they found that even taking into account round trip speed-of-neuron-firing latency and everything, the body's muscle tissue knew it was about to make a movement before the person responded that they knew they had made up their mind. Or something to that effect
tl;dr
People's mind are made up for them before they realize they've made up their minds

I thought this was interesting. http://www.usatoday.com/story/life/books/2013/02/06/genius-of-dogs-brian-hare/1861497/
Q: How do you know dogs can retain thousands of words?
A: The interesting finding there is that from a scientific standpoint, it's not amazing. What's amazing is how the dogs learned the words. They learned it through inferential reasoning, the same process kids learn words. ... You can put a dog in a room full of toys and put new ones in, and give the new ones odd names. The dog will bring back the toy it's never seen before because it's called by a name he's never heard before.
Q: And dogs can make inferences? Explain.
A: That's one of the main things we're trying to communicate. They have the ability to use inferential reasoning. There are problems you have to solve quickly. Nature has equipped them with being able to make inferences. They can read our gestures. They're inferring what we're trying to tell them.
Does make you appreciate our own intelligence a bit more when you hear about non-human animals doing it.

People who deny the fact that humans are animals, and who deny the fact that animals are the same things as humans: animals, cause so many problems.

Yeah I used to like these soundboards but once I looked at the waveforms and spectrograms I realized they're actually not good music
