Fred McGriff Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 i loved this album. there are a couple of really exceptional songs on here. like really twisted/fucked up and enjoyable at the same time. i dont really see the vsnares connection tbh. but yes, underrated album.

Guest tekkeN Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 wasn't so keen at first but really like Bilous Paths, great album but for his output with a sort-of similar sound think Hard Love has to be his best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tekkeN Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 there are some moments of beauty in Bilious Paths as well, Fall of Antioch, and some tracks which start off a bit flat develop into something very interesting to the ears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugh Mughnus Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 bilious paths was a direct attempt at copying snares and failing Actually he credits Aaron in the insert on the album. Also I'm pretty sure Midwinter Log on lunatic harness predates most of funks releases making Mike the first person to use that style..

Ragnar Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 (edited) not really interesting enough for its own topic but I thought I'd mention how Mike/Aaron must trade samples back and forth because definitely - *bleep-bleep-bleep* sound on Grape Nut Beats 2 + Aanguish from Meathole, and speculation - Meinheld has the choir sample from/direct rip of? Suffocate from WITBOAS also various jamaican people vocals Edited March 2, 2012 by Ragnar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suffocate Peon Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 I love this album, it's amazing. It's not quite like anything else I've heard before. I think it's his best album. It's the sound of pineapples mixed with Twisted Metal. The sound design is just hard to describe. It has boundless energy, it's itchy, tetchy. All his music is kind of straight forward and soft (but lush), whereas this is a genuine deviation into more weird antagonistic territory. I think it'll remain fresh for me years from now. I think it's a minor masterpiece of sorts, and definitely underrated. It's better than most Venetian Snares albums. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toaoaoad Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 (edited) Went looking for the most appropriate topic to bump to express my love for AEC MERLIN The hyper-detailed programming, those lush processed hi-hats underneath the glitchy beat, the woozy detuned BOCish synths (bit of an Iced Cooly vibe for me), the off kilter beat, angular bassline and strange harmonies... Everything is so delicate but so lively, and just abrasive enough to give it a bit of an edge. Just an incredibly masterful track. This whole album feels almost obsessively meticulous, like you can really hear the effort that went into it (typical of IDM at the time and is something I really valued in music back then as well), it's amazing that he said at the time that it would be his last - It does seem like it was his last in this particular style tho. Anyway, today is a day to celebrate AEC Merlin, bright and sunny fall day, will be going out for a walk down a Bilious Path somewhere Edited October 30, 2021 by toaoaoad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YangYing Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 (edited) hes apparently going back to breaks on magic pony ride... i hope that certain featured artists realize that digital is and always was the way to go to melt phaces using musix (ceephax not included ofc) also does any1 know the story behind this vid? very pretty and one of my favs from the album (fav being seige of antioch) Edited October 31, 2021 by MIXL2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fake Smerdis Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 I think there's some good songs on here but often it does feel like a challenge of trying out about 50 effects on drum samples. It sounds restless and wanting to create something sonically exciting without much 'song craft' in there, which I think is something he has returned to in a big way in recent releases and which I am so happy about. New album with Mrs. Jynx is a great example of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YangYing Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 (edited) Siege Of Antioch is an absolutely perfect track and I just wanna know how he made it (edit: the percussion in particular, I dont know where to start to make it sound so.. alien?)
