What are some other examples of music as we know it being taken to new heights, /mu//?
>>66370124
not pic related I'm guessing
Haven't heard anything that sounds quite like it, which is a shame, because I'd love to hear more stuff like it.
>>66370183
I absolutely hate that fucking cover. Never checked the album out because of it.
>>66370183
this album was much too over the place it had a few decent tracks though
>>66370157
yes, pic related.
>>66370303
Every track was fantastic except for Tathagātagarbha.
>>66370124
I love ae but they didn't really push any boundaries with that one.
>>66370157
are you stupid?
>>66370774
kek
>>66370629
yeah maybe with the "format" (or lack thereof) but the music isn't anything new for them or even in general. still a very strong release imo.

>got subliminally enlightened
>didn't even know it
>>66370124
Liturgy, Deafheaven, Deathspell Omega, and Vektor

Really dude? This is what you pick as taking music to new heights? More like new lows.
Probably the Metamorphosen by Richard Strauss conducted by Karajan or the Repons for the maundy thursday by Gesualdo

Elseq had a few good tracks but was mediocre as a whole. More an extention of Exai than anything.
>>66371127
you're funny man
>>66373107
It's Exai done right, actually.
>>66370124
everyone fuckin thought guitar music died with Women, but this is like the progressive/mathy phoenix which rose from their ashes (viet cong are lacklustre and cindy lee was enjoyable but nothing massively new)

>>66373130
this. it was exai properly fucked up and folded. way more successful at re-contextualization.
>>66370813
Not even the format. It's not the first entirely digital album. Hell, ae already dabbled in digital-only with quadrange. It sounds way too similar to exai. I can hear bits that are straight out of their live show for the last album. Feed1 sounds like a remix of tac Lacora. I'm glad they didn't waste a physical release on it. Need to clear out MAX and start fresh for a more distinct sound.
>>66370183
literally just justin timberlake for pretentious art students
Sinfonia Eroica
Anything these 4 has made is in their own league
/mu/ has yet to show me an album thats better than the redeemer or black metal or r+7
>>66373197
i think you're being a bit reductive. autechre have definitely leaned out their sound in recent years wrt texture/timbre, but the processes and the way these tracks evolve are v different from exai.
>>66373197
>It's not the first entirely digital album
but its not an 'album' in any strict sense either, more like a gigantic binder of electric sheep which you can sift through looking for all sorts of specific textures, patterns or various other elements. Its like the gift that keeps on giving imo
>>66373223
>dean blunt
>on par with ferraro or lopatin
you're fucking hilarious m8
>>66373251
>/mu/ has yet to show me an album thats better than the redeemer or black metal
I'm waiting bb
>>66373251
I bet you've never even heard his Hype Williams shit or seen those live shows. And seeing how the 3 of those artist's lean heavily on concept, Babyfather was way more conceptually cogent than either GoD or HS3.
>>66373272
>I bet you've never even heard his Hype Williams shit or seen those live shows
I have, stop being presumptuous about your 'secret club'. we're talking about his dean blunt releases here, and besides, his hype williams stuff is nothing new when you consider Ferraro has been in the game for a hell of a lot longer.
>And seeing how the 3 of those artist's lean heavily on concept, Babyfather was way more conceptually cogent than either GoD or HS3.
heavy conceptual reliance does not excuse poor songwriting. I like The Redeemer and Babyfather, but Black Metal just felt lacklustre.
>>66373385
m8 I'm still waiting on you show me an bttr album then redeemer or black metal
I'm here for good music now show me
>>66373403
>give me an album just so I can shit all over what you like
I ain't spoonfeeding your sorry ass. you sound like a very sad sap begging for me to throw you a bone
>>66370124
Album?
>>66370183
This one too
>>66373438
>>66370183
Shit, just saw the filename
>>66373430
No I'm open minded but it seems like you have nothing :(
dw I've been asking for two years now it's expected
HS3 was pretty good tho Arca's new mixtape is thing i've heard all yr
>>66370124
>>66373450
oh my god you are such a meme
do you really only listen to the "frontiers"? are these the sort of people who post in those threads?
>>66373465
Of course you'll change the subject after having no better albums to sure
Pathetic!
>>66373450
didn't mean to snap friendo, try this out - its free to download :)
>>66373490
This is really good thx
>>66373272
But about half of Babyfather was just post-ironic grime wankery, stealing lyrics and references.
The other half where he actually tried with the music was really nice though.
>>66373237
Perhaps. I guess I'm showing my age a bit. Though I'm not as old as those lads so what's my excuse? Still, I suppose I'm simply not fond of where their sound is right now.
>>66373239
I get that. I keep telling myself I'm free to pick the bits I like and discard the rest. They even did us a supreme solid and sold it in chunks. However I only ended up with four tracks I truly wanted to keep around. In that, I was a bit disappointed.
>>66370876
Add Krallice to that list and we're in business.
>>66370876
lol
