What am I in for? More or less, like a whole album's worth of very melodic AE, with a lot of new sounds to keep it fresh. The nods to BoC, et al, are minimal, IMO.

Alien Sugar 29 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 The fidelity of this new autechre is such high quality i'm already swimming in the vinyl and all i can hear is something matters in the audio. I'm only hearing a half of a second and it sounds good so far. What time zone will the next play be aired i wanna dream to HEAR a sign. Link to post Share on other sites

Friendly Stranger 164 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 If you think you’re going to hear OPN or BoC in this album you’re going to be very disappointed. This is an Autechre album through and through. 6 Link to post Share on other sites
kakapo 423 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 I would love to (not) see a live show of this material presented in a really visceral way like the 2016 tour. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
mFing 59 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Do people not realize that this is available for download right now if you've purchased it? Why are you talking about it as if you can't listen to it? https://autechre.warp.net/account Link to post Share on other sites
springymajig 76 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Alright, giving this a second listen... admittedly, as much as I like the album as a whole, I do wish more of it was like the opening track. M4 Lema is perhaps the best balance of warm, melodic atmosphere and harsh, crunchy, noisey beats EVER. As always everything they do just makes me even more curious about what they will put out in the future... 5 1 Link to post Share on other sites

The sounds are outstanding. The mix has a more traditional balance, there are no choices that, at first listen, seem "mistakes" (I often find, in past works, elements that are too prominent - the kick or snare ... - which over time become perfectly natural), but I think it was a necessary choice.

M4 Lema is perhaps the best balance of warm, melodic atmosphere and harsh, crunchy, noisey beats EVER. As always everything they do just makes me even more curious about what they will put out in the future... Yeah - it’s early days of course, but the opener is by far my favourite track. At this very early juncture it kind of towers above the rest. On second listen, I realise the album is more minimal and hypnotic than I first felt. I don’t personally get the ‘Oversteps’ comparisons; sure, there’s some similar sounds, but apart from one or two pieces there’s not the overt layered melodic interplay that that album had. This seems to be its own new thing. It seems to be focused on chord stabs and textures swimming around those rather than plucky interweaving melodies. (If that makes sense.) Its a brave album for sure, in that apart from the stunning opener and a few other sonic explosions it doesn’t wow you with overt complexity. It is about the sound and space in a way some of the beatless Quaristice tracks were to me (but with their new sound designs and a more fractured aspect - and some surprisingly ‘straight’ harmonies.)

jaderpansen 906 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 love how the (purely) percussive elements often seem kinda hidden behind a fog of synth, ghostlike quality, immersive af. 5 Link to post Share on other sites

There's a limited amount of options to show deep disagreement: "More than any other other album this feels like a distillation of everything they've done previously" It's simply not a distillation (nor could it be, they're not going in the same direction for that to be an appropriate figure of speech), i mean you may feel as you like of course, just a reaction 2 Link to post Share on other sites

I don't see how it shows that, there's a lot of snippets of tracks we know going as far as Exai period and touching on live tracks, so it really shows that the released stuff is likely all that was in any polished state. They could develop some others further, not hundreds of hours Link to post Share on other sites
