AE_LIVE 2016/2018, otherwise known as onesix, is a compilation of seven soundboard recordings taken from live shows performed in 2016 and 2018. It was first released on April 7th, 2020[1], exclusively on Autechre's store, and was later made available on all streaming services on May 18th, 2022.[2]

History

In an interview with Radio Student before their Ljubljana show, Sean explained how they saw the new show material.

I wouldn't describe it as ambient, but I've read the word ambient in a couple of reviews. I wouldn't really call it ambient. I don't mind if the people do. It's slower and it's kinda intense and a lot of the sequencing is still very complex, but it's a lot of curves rather than discrete events so it sort of sounds smooth and kind of sophisticated, if that's the right word, I don't know. It really is quite different from the last live set.[3]

For the 2018 part of the tour, they doubled the number of channels that the rig could process from 8 to 16.[4]

The compilation, featuring five 2016 shows and two 2018 shows, released on 7 April 2020.[1] Sean mentioned years later they didn't release a majority of the soundboards they had on hand for the tour as a lot of the sets were very similar to each other.[5]

Trivia

  • Melbourne's soundboard was originally mislabeled as being performed on the 22nd rather than the 21st ("AE_LIVE_MELBOURNE_220618").
  • For the Budapest show on November 7th, 2016, DSPH Sounds managed to get approval from Rob "while relaxing inside one of the biggest thermal baths in Budapest" for recording and uploading a bootleg of the show.[9]
  • The shapes in the artwork and tour promo make up the letters 'a' and 'e'. These shapes would later be reused in the artworks for SIGN, PLUS and AE_2022-.[10][11]
  • The individual artwork for the 2016 and 2018 sets are inverted from each other.
    • The 2016 artwork consists of black "bean" shapes on a white detailed background.
    • The 2018 artwork is vice-versa - white detailed "bean" shapes on a black background.
