auxien Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 n Cur is nice yeah. feels like a little extra tail to the album, which is fitting obv. reminds me of my early MIDI experiments sequencing the stock MIDI sounds, but really just sounds like some strange place between really old and really new. pseudo-nostalgic, i guess?

tailings Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 it would be fantastic if they'd release a comp of all those japanese bonus tracks. What is preventing that from happening? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shitty is a matter of opinion but you can't seriously think it would be non-selling. There are plenty of people, (me included), who would like those tracks on hard copy. I don't own any of those Beat records releases. No matter; much, much thinner and sketchier comps have been releasedover the course of history; ae discards would be nearly prime cuts by comparison. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seriously think that, how do you know there's plenty? Do you have an idea ~how many people buy regular releases for a start? And what's this argument that sketchier comps were released? Ae should lower their standard closer to the worst releases in history coz they don't care or why, exactly? Shitty or not to you, they were deemed as good as bonus tracks go by their creators, and in a comp context they would flow way worse than as an optional outro.

drillkicker Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 N Cur is so lush. I really had to change hats from NTS to get into this album. Glad I did. It's basically Ambersteps. Does anyone else think that track title is a reference to ncurses ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably, but also encore (which makes the track titles seem not that careless, considering telling titles like si00 and au14) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, this is a box set with different albums, tracks from different eras aren't mixed on one single album. That Warp Spotify playlist about AE someone posted here is a better example of mixing different AE styles from different times in a playlist. The difference is that they could choose tracks from the entire discography and therefore could choose tracks that somehow transition into each other well even though they belong to different eras. If they make a compilation of bonus tracks the selection is much smaller and harder to make work. You'd end up with Incunabula & Tri Rep tracks on the same release as keyosc. Doesn't really fit in my extremely humble opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's some more ambient style track that has a really long outro, I think, with lush pads and lasers firing in the background. Or then I've dreamed the whole fucking thing. Maybe this?
