btw so far i love the beatless string synth tracks the most, i wouldn't mind the whole album being like that...

yesterday i was listening to SIGN while falling asleep and the transition from esc desc to au14 made me almost jump out of my bed

Anyone noticed 80s hardware synth VCA chirping in r cazt? It sounds like tx81z envelopes or like DSI Mopho's ENV artefacts

u mean these very distant bleepy noises coming to the surface when dynamics are low? not able to identify em as such but yeah, there's something there.

that’s the track that struck me most prominently as sounding like ‘hardware’ (but can’t place anything specific like you’re mentioning)

OK, I have to say, unfortunately, SIGN is not my cup of tea. It is just so uninteresting. Yes, some layering, but still, it sounds lazy, uninspired, IDK. Even from the sound design perspective as a last resort, nothing interesting there.

Will probably very sporadically return to it. Sigh.

"Metaz form8" is a melodic first degree relative of "Bronchusevnmx24". I don't have my tools with me but, depending on the key, the two could be crossfaded into an epic celebration of mechanical gloom. I searched the thread to see if anyone else had picked up on that but I didn't see anything.

A mate who is Autechre curious said he had heard the new one was like Amber. I was like nah but can see why they'd say that. But I'd say Garbage is a closer fit if you were looking for something with a similar atmosphere in their discography.

Well, you will go through a lot of disappointment, pain, self lying, fanboyism. You may even like it. But let's be honest. Confield, Elseq, NTS, this is where they were on the summit.

Summit Is Gone Now.

I respect your opinion, but let's be honest: I might not share it.
