Ambient/Post-Rock/Textural bass playing thread

Anyone here familiar with this film? It popped up in discussion recently and I thought this crowd might enjoy it. I need to watch it again to pay attention to what the music was doing.
It’s Such A Beautiful Day


I’ve been meaning to watch that! Thanks for the reminder

Autechre

Can someone please tell me how to pronounce that properly? Been wondering for over 20 years.

Like finding out I've been mispronouncing Moog and Neil Peart's last name for decades...
They pretty much said in multiple interviews to say it how you want.

Edit:

From the wikipedia

Booth and Brown pronounce the name Autechre with a Rochdale accent (/ɔːˈtɛkə/ aw-TEK-ər). However, they have explained that the name can be pronounced in any way one sees fit.

Yeah, they would say that, but if you get it wrong you get singled out as the n00b!

Some experimentation w the Patchulator 8000. Chain is mostly mattoverse drone > mattoverse kick drum > cooper arcades (crusher) > mood > blooper. Ive been experimenting w catching a loop and then reordering things. I wish there was a simple way to reorder without having to have a drop out of sound. Ive been experimenting w adding some breaks and then making switches during a rhythmic pause...thinking the move might be a ditto looper after the patchulator so that I catch a small loop make changes and then fade the loop. Patchulator is awesome though!
