Zephyr_Nova Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 The Au14 chord progression is strangely poppy. I don't think I'd ever honed in on that aspect during previous listens. It put the track in a new light. That's one thing I appreciate about Ae's newer material - the nature of the music changes depending on where you focus. Same thing can apply to their older material too, but more so from Oversteps onward (for me, at least). Not that Oversteps is new, by any means (though it really could have been released any time between then and now and not sound dated/like anything else). 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beerwolf Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 Haven’t got into this album too much as I’m still happily in Elseq territory. My favourites are Cazt, Psin, Lema, Metaz. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hello spiral Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Did anyone catch what he said in the AMA about SIGN and PLUS? They basically made these tracks just to build up some chops on some new software they were using, in the intention to use it for the Sophie remix. And by the time they were done they were sick of the software and didn't use it for the Sophie remix. I guess the next step was them ringing warp and being like "uuh, we've got some tracks here I guess?" 4 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxus Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 SIGN is such a water album. 100% ocean vibes. Sun shimmering on the surface, waves breaking against the rocks, bioluminescent deep sea creatures. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toaoaoad Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Our babies just entered the terrible 2s. No fanfare from watmm this time around. Anybody still listening to these? Who caned them when they were new and have moved on? Who has been avoiding them almost entirely as per the autechre effect? (me) I've been listening to NTS a lot. Lol Gonna give these a few good solid listens this week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vkxwz Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 Still growing on me. Gave sign a full listen through the other day and it's better than ever, track 1 is still my favourite by a decent margin. Although I feel like it's something I can only put on when I have the time to give it my full attention so that's limiting my number of listens. What's this autechre effect you are talking about? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
