jaderpansen 896 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 also 13th and 20th being exactly one week apart could mean listening party on the former and official release on the latter? 🤔 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites

splesh 199 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Oh November not October, my bad. As you were. I'll be happy to wait some more, since I'm still enjoying digesting SIGN 2 Link to post Share on other sites

sidewinder 228 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 1 hour ago, goonstock said: I’m not sure if the validity of this but folks on reddit are saying that the companion piece to Sign is called Plus https://www.reddit.com/r/autechre/comments/jj5gio/you_heard_it_here_first/ I'm dubious that a record store would have already received this information, but what do I know. Especially "to put on the store's website", before an official announcement? Even if it came with instructions to do so after a certain date, it sounds suspect. Also PLUS sounds kinda lame, but then again SIGN wasn't a super creative title either. 1 hour ago, azatoth said: Why couldn't they release both of them at the same time if they are going to release another album. I like the staggered approach, gives us time to digest the standard album material. What's the rush? What's a month or two to sit with one album? 56 minutes ago, jaderpansen said: similar artwork plus "plus" seem to hint at some kind of addendum... hmm. Would seem that way. Something completely different would be nice, but even as an addendum of sorts it could be wildly different. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Zephyr_Nova 1975 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 SIGN PLUS could be Autechre track title code for Sean plz. Every time Sean shows Rob some lush new code for Max he's working on Rob goes "Sign, plus" and then they lol. 5 3 19 1 4 Link to post Share on other sites
beerwolf 797 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Classic. AE should of given Jules and Ossillick (spelling, sorry) art direction over the new album it would of been a million times better and probably those two lads would of done it for no charge. Link to post Share on other sites
toaoaoad 551 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 I've never had any issue with the name SIGN or the artwork at all - not the first time they've used pronounceable English words for a title, or vivid colours, tho some seem to make it out that way... But I really hope this PLUS rumour isn't true. It's definitely an obvious nod to "Sean pls", which is cute and all, but a bit too corny and obvious for them don't you think? I'm guessing it's just a fan trolling fellow fans. 2 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Stickfigger 1253 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Would love more music from Ae but if it doesn't happen its hardly a let down. No other artists have spoiled us over the last decades to the extent that Ae have. Whilst SIGN isn't the flavour of Ae that i tend to gravitate towards; i love the fact that it is so focused and disciplined in its execution. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Okay, fuck, you are completely right. Another listen and this album opened up for me. And how did I not notice how varied and painfully beautiful r catz is? Still M4 Lema superfan though. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Anyway, a tribute to watmm would also be reasonable (I mean, after 15 uninterrupted hours of twitch tv I would deserve a salary), but even the title of two albums seems a bit excessive ... It also remains to understand why they would have published the "e" before the "a", associated with the reverse logo of the shirt, there must be some expedient otherwise the thing would be totally senseless Link to post Share on other sites

SIGN has vowel i. PLUS* has vowel u. the artwork is ae. but the 'clipsed layering reverbs a vowel o. Both are recognised terms. In other words, a sly dig at those who anticipate a gibberish/gobbledygook computerised tracklist (although you still get that). The consonants recall some of the compound lettering conventions used in the NTS tracklist. Edited October 28, 2020 by Roo 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites
