90 Degrees: great music video. autechre-ish only listenable!

This is the sort of thing that Autechre should have been doing the past couple of years instead of recording their farts and putting the sound through expensive audio plugins.

Caution: Its a 75mb quicktime movie but its well worth the wait and will stream as it plays if you have broadband (and you can save it to your hard disk at the end).

Go to 90Degrees.fr for more information (though no much!).

Video is amazing and goes well with the audio but for experimental electronica with visuals you cant beat Gantz Graf.

Gantz Graf was barely listenable and certainly without a basic "storyline" and it was basically just sound causing graphic effect. This video has more depth. *IMO*. I like watching Gantz Graf with other audio over the top. This one I can watch and listen. I hope they do more. I don't know anything about them except that theyre French :p

what i said was IMO as well

If we are comparing then i would say I love the french video more than the audio whereas the audio for Gantz Graf was just as powerfull as its video. There appears to be more noticeable audio/visual connections in GG where as this is a little more subtle as it progresses.

But i do like all aspects of Autechre - its a lot more than well produced farts to me. Head music at its very best. oh...IMO

What you said

I prefer Gantz Graf too, both musically and visually.

Well, being Ae-head I would have to praise gantz graf both musically and visually. However, this French piece is a great find! I think that the connection between the music and the audio is not 100% all the way (loopz used the word "subtle"), but even as it stands, it's pretty impressive.

I think you shouldn't have started with the Autechre connection in the first place, Stimpee, because musically this is a lot closer to Plaid, Mouse on Mars & Fizzarum, I think, rather than Ae. It's more "click-y" and 4/4-based than recent Autechre. Nothing wrong with that either.

Of course Ae are popular, so in many ways it's hard to say where their influence ends.

I wonder who's composed the music for this one? I can't find any info.

I had to put something in the title to bait you guys into viewing it

I know some of you are so rabid Ae fans that you'd just have to watch it

(even tho the music IS more Plaid/MoM related).

If I didnt put that in then you'd just ignore it and carry on posting a) what youre listening to right now or b) which chart position Dr Pressure has sunk to this week.

The poor french bloke has took a battering because of your baiting. Nice 1
