that Ah ! track is a surprise & is really good. pitchfork mentions all the details on the forthcoming records (like 3 lps or something).

 

that would be great if it was 3lps, my copy of Oval comers and the new Lithops records are both very weak pressings relatively speaking. They are on a single very long playing vinyl record.

saw this on vinyl yesterday, definitely didn't want to miss out on it! it's a beautiful EP, i assume it's to be played at 33, yeah? sounds great at both 33 and 45 though, imo.

that makes so little sense for someone who's heard other ambient-ish music beyond SAWII and Systemich that i honestly don't even know where to start.

 

that aside i think this is a good album/ep(?) but im having the same issues with it that i do with new Autechre, i feel like the mystery from So and even Ovalcommers is gone we're seeing Oval at now a very macro level. To top it off and also oddly coincidentally it uses primarily physical modeling synthesis (like Oversteps) to achieve a lot of those fake guitar plucking sounds. It's used to interesting effect, but i would expect Mr. Popp to 'push' the technique more than he does on this. It definitely doesn't have the sound of an Oval album made using an out of date desktop PC either (in my imagination the expectation was not very minimal physical modeling virtual string tweak sessions).

i find it very strange that when i type Oval & 'physical modeling' into google that this thread is literally the only hit containing those 2 words at once. I find this amazing since physical modeling is available everywhere these days, i guess it's still a really unknown technology to most people.
