Autechre - "Quaristice" and "Quaristice. Quadrange. Ep"

L'unica certezza riguardo agli Autechre è ciò che ci si aspetta da loro...linee-guida verso nuovi orizzonti dell'IDM. E' grazie alle prime tre releases -"Incunabula" (vero e proprio manuale di architettura elettronica), "Amber", "Tri Repetae" -, which presented themselves as masters Autechre dell'IDM more sophisticated and bizarre. It was the '93 with "Incunabula", '94 and '95 with "Amber" and "TriRepetae" certain territories and sound were a world yet to be discovered, the IDM is still evolving. From '98 to "LP5" and "Confield" in 2001-until "Untilted" (2005) -, there was instead a gradual turnaround compared to the glorious start of Ae. This change of trend is not an involution (as many reviews claim), but a definite desire to adhere to a standard composition by itself own making: what is often criticized for not dare Autechre fact is most of the time "Incunabula" and "Amber" , not to try more new design solutions, not to look for more innovation; of these criticisms is not spared even the new "Quaristice" . (By the way, within this trend emerges in all its sound power "Draft 7.30" ). If according to many this is a serious lack of Ae, is not in my opinion: As the inventor of a style, you are free to join indefinitely ... it's their style, their trade mark, its key composition. Apparently Rob Brown Sean Booth and has not been said all within this key style and there is still another pier to express in this space designed by themselves. When the time comes to a close to open another season, we are sure that many will be made of stone in the new possibilities for innovation costudite as a duo Autechre. Probably "Quaristice" not represent the guidelines and the quantum shift nell'IDM / electronics of the future, certainly not on the stylistic dares not seek the solution or approach ipercompositivo complex, but follows a trail already laid by Autechre same: the IDM is fine as always, the texture smooth, linear composition, the minimalist approach that has always characterized the Ae flows that evolve through the various releases to the compositional sophistication and automation of the last works. Stands fact played the confidence and full adherence to style Ae "is the ambient abysmal in evolution, the flow of the pads and the differentiation of synths, the beat deconstructions and rearrangements of fact, Instant rewind and rhythm, recognize the sounds of vintage drum dear to Autechre (TR and TR606 all), the composition through software modules. But overall it gives way to empty the atmosphere and ambient music, many more tracks in the absence of beats and a composizione minimalista caratterizzata dalla ciclicità ed un andamento "ad avvolgimento". E' soprattutto con il nuovo "Quaristice.Quadrange.ep" che le composizioni prendono una più specifica direzione e sono più riconoscibili gli intenti originari, cominciati in "Quaristice". "Quadrange.ep" è infatti il nuovo EP, uscito a maggio in formato scaricabile dal sito Bleep.com (definito Ep ma contentente 13 tracce -versioni alternative di quelle uscite in "Quaristice"-, per una durata di oltre 2 ore). STRUTTURA E SUONO. "Quaristice" è composto di 20 tracce ed una struttura circolare: si apre and closes with two tracks environmental "Altibzz" and "Outh9X" . Inside there are 20 "micro" of great beauty, which has the merit to crystallize perfectly un'IDM valuable, very valuable. Inside are all the characteristics of sound Autechre (the ones we have already seen many reviews to be a limit, but for me the great honor of the duo) and their intent has always been expressed through music / non-music, made of digital pulses, glitches, residual cut-up sound and developed, constructed through a meticulous artisan electronics. In "Quaristice" e "Quaristice.Quadrange.ep" c'è infatti un approccio assolutamente perfetto al glitch; ci sono nuove esplorazioni all'interno di questo, attraverso la degradazione del suono certamente, ma anche la costruzione per moduli, risaltano le sonorità costruite con architettura FM e l "exploitazione" outboard, ma soprattutto c'è un lavoro sulla "asimmetria del suono" , un decentramento verso la parte del suono che inevitabilmente "glitcha" e "clippa", una ricerca verso quelle onde residuali ed i sedimenti che si pongono "ai lati" del suono . In "Quaristice.Quadrange.ep" questo lavoro si estende ad ogni ambito della costruzione sonora ed il risultato è, variabilmente, a volte morbido, talvolta assolutamente e volontariamente sporco, reverberato, acquatico. Si percepisce in maniera esaustiva nelle composizioni "technotiche" in cui al 4/4 corrisponde una asimmetria ed una sconnessione data dal residuo sonoro ; esempi sono "The PLC" , "Tankakern" e la versione "Tkankaren" in "Quadrange.ep". C'è poi lo schema quadrato dell'elettronica di "fxzE" e l'oscura spirale glitch/dub di "rale" , il marasma di entries humanoid "I" , disconnections of "plyPhon" and all versions of "Perlence" , the noises of battle "SIMMM" and waves digital "Parallel Suns" and "SonDEremawe" . If one thing should be paid attention in "Quaristice" and "Quaristice.Quadrange.ep" is, beyond the composition itself, the beauty of sound: FM sounds metal, scrap glitchanti bass, reverb and the cool abstract digital atmospheres. At the sound of much more concrete "Untilted" With its complexity of listening and mutilation of the beat, in "Quaristice.Quadrange" a return match and even a new momentum for an abstract composition. Metaelectronica Research save this project and recommends plenty of Autechre 2008.
