[beariksson]

I will wait until I have it in flac/ on cd. Compressed ae is meh

[Suffocate Peon]

WHY DID I NOT STAY UP AN EXTRA TEN MINUTES LAST NIGHT :cry :

[jules]

That ten minutes would have been hours

[gl0tch]

Its real. I can't believe people have doubts.

 

Its certainly a promo though... sounds transcoded, crossfades could be more polished, last track cuts off.... So, when we finally get the real product, it will sound even better.

 

This isnt fake though. I have nothing to do with this.

 

 

Go back and listen to everything from Lp5 and on.... you'll see why this album makes total sense.

 

 

Bask in it bitches. This shit is sunlight and hot as fuck

[TwiddleBot]

agreed, now that i'm finished it, a lot of the melodic work is signature ae.. sounding aleatoric/based on probability tables. a lot of the percussion and synth is quite similar to that of previous albums, particularly lp5, heard snippets of percussion reminiscent of quaristice at various points too

 

makes sense to me, if it isn't autechre it's a brilliant fake :D

 

the eq curve and compression seems a bit funky and a few times i could swear to god i heard vinyl static pops in the quiet parts (vinyl promo, or digital glitch of some kind?)

 

anyway i'm looking forward to hearing it in better quality.

I can see how it does make total sense. Still don't see the appeal, and while it shares some sonic similarities to lp5, I don't yet feel it's its spiritual successor.

[acroyear]

There's no way it's not Autechre. And of course I can only speak for myself here, but if the leak sucked I would've said so.

[gl0tch]

This is real. Fred's comment about doubling the tracks and making a single track promo to identifies leakers, makes total sense.

[Guest]

lol no. only an Autechre fan in some kind of frenzy could come up with that…… this could be done more subtly, no?

my take is that it's not a cd copy, but recorded from iTunes playback with crossfade enabled or something stupid.(maybe in an attempt to get rid of unaudible "watermarks" or whatever)

could somebody please pm me the link for the real leak, please?

[Guest Garkken]

qplay sounds like the Tunnels Ov Set Remix

YES

[berndspring1974]

i just realised, that oversteps sounds EXACTLY like the "just a souvenir" cover looks like. EXACTLY.

 

[acroyear]

Track is played twice, and I didn't hear any crossfade between any tracks.

How ironic, Just A Souvenir sounds just like the Oversteps artwork looks like. A black hole.

[Guest]

lol

[jules]

That cover is pretty much the exact opposite of the oversteps cover

[TwiddleBot]

I'm about halfway through the promo leak thingy now, and to me it sounds a lot like Quaristice, but cleaner and clearer. The layering of voices is similar. The sound of the synths is similar. The sound progression is similar but way better imo. But there's a lot more space and breathing room.

[modey]

fuck!! only listened to ilanders so far (i'm at my parents place with iphone internet only) but fuck!!!!! fuuuuuuuuck.

[jules]

God I hope bleep releases this early now

[thehauntingsoul]

I really hope this isn't fake

[Root5]

Just finished. It's amazing.

 

 

I'm a bit surprised by how much counterpoint was going on.

[FurryThings]

can someone PM me the link pleazzzzz
