I have written this in a different thread already but:
"Yesterday, I was listening to the whole Exai and it was for the first time ever that I did not found Nodezsh to be annoying. Maybe it is starting to grow on me or my fixed sleep cycle takes its part."
Nodezsh is a big grower. My favorite Exai tracks now are totally different from my favorites say 3 months ago.

prac-f is one of the best, it's insane. I always liked it but it hit me hard recently.

great job

Just discovered Life's a Gas
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJTz5OE3h0c
this is one of those contemplative masterpieces like his GAS stuff, Oval's Do While, Global communication's aspirin remix, that one burzum track....shit.
Man this is sooo nice. I ought to start checking out Voigt's other monikers.
I love the other things you mentioned except for the last, I've never listened to Burzum. So I'm curious: which track?
Rundgang um die transzendentale Säule der Singularität

Rückverzauberung 4 is gorgeous.

It's 4/4 all the way through (check the hihats) but the snare is just syncopated as fuck. I think the bassdrums are even the same all the way through.
Man I was just hoping they were writing in something other than 4/4 for a change, oh well.
I can imagine way more "conventional-sounding" rhythms that are in different time signatures, like cichli (5/4). This track is way harder to grok than cichli.
The way it sounds rhythmically doesn't ultimately depend on what time signature you represent it in, it's just a convention that helps with communication.

Having overdosed on Exai and L-Event, I decided to give this a listen for the first time in well over a year, and HOLY SHIT, I've always liked this album but giving it space has hugely raised my appreciation.
This has to be Autechre's most devastatingly beautiful and emotionally rich album. It's just gorgeous, deep and ethereal.
Though it's been great to experience the more forceful side of Autechre again with Exai, I really hope they at one point go back to exploring and expanding upon this softer, more contemplative side of their music. I don't think they get enough credit for how diverse they are.
I've had the same experience and agree with every word here.
Qplay in particular has been haunting me.

Thanks Rob, Sean, and Joyrex, this was so much fun! Now stay away from WATMM, lol.

What do you think of Wolfgang Voigt's GAS project?
really like it
tbh i'm a huge fan of his anyway
Awesome, do you have a favorite GAS album?
Also, do you like his recent stuff? (last 3 years or so)
favourite gas LP, pop - for PO6 & POP7 quite specifically
Mine too. I figured this would be your answer, I think the level of sample manipulating ability he reached on POP is the only thing I've heard that compares to ae's finest moments.

I notice that some of the tracks on Draft have a "latin" or "spanish" feeling, like the light metallic-sounding rhythm that comes in on Surripere before the Whacks and Thuds, and parts of Kidney Bean. By design or is that just the Torero in me??

I get what you're saying about the grey tones from Shostakovich. It's so deep, powerful, emotional, honestly after getting into that a certain amount of other crap dropped off my radar :) Not you guys of course. Have you heard String quartet 8? If not you should listen.
the only one i've got is the emerson one, is that a good version?
I haven't heard it before, but listening now on youtube it sounds great, in fact, better than the versions I've heard, thanks!

Yeah. And that one reminds me of Schuberts Death and the Maiden. Which reminds me of Murcof, who remade it which worked well.
Here at 7:04 (Shostakovich Sym. #5 Mvmt 1) is a fantastic example of a perfect transition (as in Surripere) where he pitches the violins up in order to get back to the main theme.

I knew instantly what you were talking about. Earth-shattering.

Have you guys ever listened to Terry Riley or Steve Reich?
yeah different trains and a few others, more reich than riley for me
Different trains is good but not near his best, my favorites are music for 18 musicians and eight lines. Electric counterpoint is great too
Best Riley stuff is In C and the poppy nogood stuff, eg this

My last question for today: You guys are not into classical music at all? Whatever era, I'm generalizing. Just curious. Because there's a whole world to offer in that department and you can believe me, the enthusiast classical listeners go crazy/insane/however:emotional while listening to their beloved pieces like other music listeners do. Because many people think its just boring, but its a similar statement like saying Ae is random sounds - utterly wrong.
Do you guys see a parallel between what you do and what classical composers or jazz musicians do? Do you like any of that stuff?
classical, same thing really, it depends on how it was recorded a lot for me. like, i like shostakovich chamber works but only when the strings sound really grey, somehow that sounds like i imagine he wanted it to. i might be way off there tbh i know so little about him really
I asked what particular Shostakovich he liked, no response

It's far from my favorite ae track, learn to read. But it's not dull and boring, it's a great track.
