Revision as of 17:02, 26 October 2023
elseq 1-5 is the twelfth album by Autechre. It was originally released on May 19th, 2016 on Warp Records.
[paragraph about how its in parts, and maybe about the debate over whether it counts as one album, given how its split up on streaming services. Mention how the cat numbers are sequentially WARP512.1/.2/.3/etc… ]
[paragraph about sonic textures]
[paragraph about how they originally just wanted to trickle tracks onto their site when they finished them but warp made them do an “album”. Could we also maybe look into why its divided the way it is, if its only digital it shouldnt matter how long it is. Wtf is it split up? I've literally never questioned this before… Energy here, they divided it up to make it easier for people who aren't autechre-crazy to listen to it lol]

Trivia
- elseq 1-5 is the only Autechre album to have a title stylized in lowercase.
- elseq 1-5 is the only Autechre album to not have a physical release. Although, in interviews, Autechre have mentioned that Quaristice is technically a digital-only release, and that the physical versions were extra.
- A popular theory is that “elseq” is an abbreviation of “edited live sequences”, meaning it would be pronounced "ell seek"
- The CAT number, WARP512, was likely specifically requested by Autechre. A popular theory is that the “5” represents the 5 parts of elseq, whereas the 12 represents it being the twelfth Autechre album.
- With a runtime of over 4 hours, elseq 1-5 was by far the longest Autechre album at the time of release. It was quickly beaten by their next album, NTS Sessions 1-4, which was almost double the length of elseq 1-5.
