Schlitze Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 You've always been one of the most cringiest posters. I think the misguided pretentions plus the stating of obvious things and an inability to express yourself in words. What we get with you is the full package. The worst of both worlds. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what do you think of the album? I know it isn’t cool to be earnest or to share any details about such things on a music forum, but I’m interested in knowing how people are experiencing it. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schlitze Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 It's early but impressed with the detail. Most instant ones are psin am, sch. mefd, au14 and si00. The rest are fine too but still chipping away at them. These things take time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubba69 Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 This album is less a sequel to oversteps and more a sequel to quaristice. I don't know why, it just feels that way to me. I have no objective reasoning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbo Zwanengestuif Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 (edited) The shape on the album cover suggested to me more onesix trickery. But this is very new territory to me.. loving it. Edited October 11, 2020 by Zantman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thehauntingsoul Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 (edited) I'm a little concerned that this one will end up taking the back seat in my Ae rotation, perhaps even after Oversteps which I hardly ever listen to. I can't really think of any tracks that have enough excitement for me to just pick them and put them on randomly, it's kind of a self-contained album. Even Oversteps has Ilanders, Treale, D-sho Qub As much as I appreciate their textures and sound design, I come to Ae for the intricate beats and composition, and I don't feel that in Sign much at all. Maybe my opinion will change in the future. Edited October 11, 2020 by thehauntingsoul 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially tracks like Notwo (this one especially), Altibzz, and Outh9X (and the more minimal 'overtly' synthy ambient ones off Quadrage, and Altichyre.) But also in other ways (like the approach to pacing and detail), it seems quite stylistically reflective of Quaristice.

fumi Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Gave this two more complete listens today. I think I'm done with it. I'll probably listen again from time to time but this album just didn't have enough going on to demand attention. That's kind of strange because lots of the music I like is sort of drone/ambient in quality. It's got some nice sounds, textures etc. I'm glad they're still putting out stuff and maybe their next one will different again. But this album was a miss for me. It comes across as sort of like Oversteps but without the memorable melodies. I can't really explain why I haven't warmed to it - it just doesn't do anything for me. Also, there are so many artists out there vying for attention that I'm just not that much of a hardcore AE fan that I just want to keep listening to it over and over (and over) again until I've convinced myself it's an amazing piece of work (which it isn't) IMO. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First time I've heard it I was thinking how much I'd love an AE album fully in this vein. Although I doubt it is anything like Notwo I really look forward to listen to SIGN. In the meantime I'm re-listening NTS seshs and some other stuff by the bois. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ysbyty ymlacio Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 I like it, it's unfurling nicely. First few listens suffer under the weight of 'M4 Lema' (which reminds of 'Under BOAC', probably the beats) but the others begin to show themselves as they should. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
entropi Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 M4 Lema, F7, schmefd 2 & gr4 doesn't do anything for me, the rest I like a lot. Not shure if I like the shorter track-lengths, I like looong jammy tracks that stays around for a while. I'm curious about "the second album"... si00, esc desc & r cazt get played the most around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quaristice has really grown on me! I was going through a lot of other new music by artists and came back to it after years and it seemed so imaginative, daring and vibey in light of the other electronic albums I was trying to get on with. Even tracks like Steels that I didn’t used to enjoy seemed pretty fascinating. I think now having a better sound system made a huge difference - the album has some amazing bass action. Still don’t get on with the second half as much as the first, though. But tracks 1-11 are a golden run. Simmm was an instant hit and still floors me.

For me, Untilted is my fav single album. That one was a pretty sharp turn and had no eps or anything. But what it did have was the most ridiculous tour unlike anything they’d done before. The Untilted live set is boss level stuff. And Quaristice was born from those enourmous beasts. As was the Versions album, which should satisfy any complaining of the shorter track lengths from the regular album. The Quadrange EP is the best of the lot in those releases. And then the Quaristice tour was another level in ridiculous and relentless monster beat fuckery. The Quaristice era proper was one of the biggest turning points of their career and by no means should be considered the worst of anything. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not as massive an autechre fan as most round these hurr parts so maybe not any value in me agreeing with you. But honestly I’ve never understood how much hate there is for quaristice as I quite enjoy that album. So many standout tracks on it. 90101-51, IO, Simmm, and perlence come to mind immediately as some of the most played and loved tracks of theirs in my books. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
