Thanks for the review. Autechre looms large over exm. Listen to "welloff" and you can hear very Autechre-esque drumming, and layers of wonky acousmatic noise. It also sounds as though he's jamming out modular patches and then editing and layering stuff. Which is how Autechre works most of the time now. Exm is slightly more straightforward harmonically, even "welloff" which is chock-full of weirdness, seems to follow a 8 beat looped pattern that gradually morphs. Listening to any Autechre from this century, they would never stay in the same groove as longas exm does. On Sun, Oct 16, 2022 at 2:58 PM Pietro <pietrobot@gmail.com> wrote:
