4. AutechreOversteps
With an album like this, as a producer, when I listen to this I feel like I’m always playing catch up, it makes me want to get better. I haven’t been making dance based music or grid based music for that long really, only since around 2011-ish. My new album has more phrases in, it’s more musical, and I’ve been using systems to help me to do that, because I’m not going to all of a sudden become Herbie Hancock. So I have this technology and it’s better than me, so let the technology do it. So I’ve been learning these generative systems, and this Autechre is an album that when I listen to it it’s just an incredibly developed piece of music. It reveals itself differently every time you listen to it. It’s beautifully musical and it feels like computer music.
