Re: [microsound]: What is microsound ? [was: autechre/richard devine//techniques]




i guess its not how its created but how it sounds. micro sound should sound like it was created by an alien being who has a fetish for compressing layers upon layers of digital glitch.
the end result sound sound hi-tech and experimental.sort of like fx Randomiz


anyway, why dont you all consider autechre to be micro sound. most of Ep-7 sounds like micro sound, even cichlisuite and ciastic slide have isolating micro moments

p.s. im a blue hole today

yeah but what about pop music? i think there are much higher production
standards, literally hundreds of DSP/filters. whereas one could create
microsound with 1 or 2 filters, or one could record a blender and not affect
that at all, etc.


i think it is something else that defines microsound.
