Guest jasondonervan Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 I've always been curious how the lengthy Autechre webcasts are put together... are they mixed and recorded in sections, and then stitched together? Or is it 10 hours of the pair of you arguing the toss over what track goes on next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lumpenprol Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Have you ever wished trying to compose a piece with anything other than electronic instruments? Say, a choral-only work, or using a classical ensemble, piano, jazz trio, a single string instrument, anything? i mean yeah if i could really control it i would i reckon proper accurate voice simulation is actually a lot closer than people realise, weirdly the uncanny valley is a bit easier to traverse cos of people being used to processed vocals, so it's Any thoughts about stuff like vocaloid/Hatsune Miku?

Sean Ae Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 @Sean - I remember reading in an interview somewhere that you lived in Suffolk for a while. I'm from Ipswich - I'm curious to know what brought you to Suffolk since there's not a lot going on over here!? we were both living in sheffield but rob moved to london and i was like 'fuck london' so we moved to sflk to be near-yet-far was alright for the first 3 years then it started driving me mental Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

salvakkpooo Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 I am curious about the sound in We R Are Why and Gantz Graf. At which released Autechre era do they belong to? Are they mutant? By era I mean LP release periods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Ae Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 except for exai/L-event what is the best release this year you heard with the occasional splurge of bass tracks and industrial techno what new bass and industrial tracks have you been caning? oh more of a buying splurge than a listening one i listen to the first 32 bars and then, well that's the whole track tbh i only buy it cos i think i might like it later but then it just sits there, coming on shuffle once a year or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YELLOW Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 For me, Treale has been a real highlight of your recent output. Is there anything you can tell us about that track? Also how many North Face jackets between the two of you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Ae Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 what role do you see computers and mainstream technology playing when it comes to music production in the next 10-20 years from now? will they constantly be taking the labour and time away from the production processes and not permit experimentation/flexibility which seem to be inherent in the subjective human approach to music making? no they don't even do that now what's the last book you read? who are your favourite writers? valis pkd What's the story behind the "Second Bad Vilbel" name - have you ever been to Bad Vilbel? I think I know some people who live there. Also, have you ever read Alcofribas' Lego Feet review and how do you feel about it? humbled any plans to reissue/repress past releases on vinyl in the near future? ask warp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atop Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Will we ever see any footage from ATP '03 in a formal way? Should we as musicians strive to make the world a better, more interesting place to exist in? atp 03 footage? i never heard of such a thing, u got a source? no just concentrate on making good tracks, the rest will follow I would think someone was filming at the festival but I suppose I will have to just enjoy my memories of the amazing event, til I die. The All Tomorrow's Parties dvd contained no footage from the Ae curated year, if I remember correctly. We need to see Coil and all of the rest! The Skam room needs its own blu-ray release! So epic! Thank you for the advice! Keep being amazing guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LimpyLoo Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terpentintollwut Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 I'll try not to ask too many questions... but here's another one: Even though I love Exai and your recent stuff (except Oversteps, that one totally misses me), one of my fav track of yours is Tazmx - I never really see this one get mentioned anywhere, but it's just such an honest, nice and atmospheric little piece. Do you have like an archive of some other old drafts or out-takes that you're not embarrassed about and might release some day? And, if no release is scheduled anyway and Warp doesn't have their claw on it, would you be so kind and maybe even leak a track or two at some point?
