encey Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Confield and Draft especially seemed to have more traditional synthesised/source sounds totally morphed/melted until tracks were more musical 'bio-mechanical' organisms. What alien sound design! Apart from V-Pro (with its very recognisable beat sounds), even the percussion kicks and squelches from another living world. From Untilted onwards the sound design seemed far less non-referential and more overtly 'synthy', with Quaristice and then Oversteps being the clearest expression of this. I love those three, but I also miss the days of inhabiting alternate wooden universes as supplied on Draft. well-said! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lianne Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 (edited) True, it's not all woody - much is super metallic and/or harsh and very non-woody. But some has definite wood. Words fail in all of this. But there is a definite difference in approach between the sonic worlds of Confield/Draft 7.30 and then Untilted, Quaristice and Oversteps - because of these totally non-hidden reverbs, very synthy synth sounds, recognisable Elektron/classic drum machine sounds, even very recognisable real samples/field recordings, etc. :-) This appears to be the case more and more from Untilted to Oversteps. Where all of those elements are usually massaged into something totally 'other' on releases like Draft 7.30 or Confield, on the last three even I can hear those elements more as they are, more distinctly, closer to the source.

Guest Rulohead32 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 (edited) I see Miley twerking to V-Proc No, seriously, V-Proc is one of Autechre's rawest and best songs, for me. In fact, I have the start of the song as a phone calling tone. Edited August 28, 2013 by Rulohead32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avagantamos Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 This is definitely my favorite, although I think Confield, Draft, Untilted, Quaristice, and Exai are all on the same level. The beginning of Surripere is fucking sublime! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghOsty Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Draft has never given me woody textures, I don't get why people say that Yeah, I never got a wood feeling from Draft... I always pictured metallic alloys bending and snapping themselves into various architectures, much like the artwork on the cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sine nomine Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 I love the start of v-proc, but the 2nd half is crying out for a bit more of an interesting progression - an ae melody to tie it together would have been nice. The 'beat falling apart' effect they use doesn't work at all for me, they could have at least gone for an epic 'non-existant' style beat deconstruction. Hey can you point out a track of theirs with this? (Epic non-existant) Not quite sure what you mean??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
