They just make what sounds good, completely rejecting intended genre placement, some parts in tri rep. are very ambient I think, parts when the beats stop, especially the ends of a lot of songs when they fade off.

I can think of a bunch of tracks Autechre have done that, when combined, could make a pretty decent ambient 'compilation' disk. I was thinking of actually doing that sometime
Such ambient tracks (or partially ambient include):
-19 Headaches -Melve -Caliper Remote -Drane 2 -Pule -Nine -Yulquen -Piobms19 -Bronchusevenmx24 -Vletrmx21

I would believe that to be true Cortex. I've always talked of it as that.

I'd say I'd like Ae to do an ambient cd next but that wouldn't work in their string of cds. The evolution of Autechre wouldn't call for that. I only see them getting more organic.

That's exactly what I was thinking Cortex. If history repeats itself (and I'm sure it will), we won't be getting a full album but an ep next. I really hope it's a Peel Session...or something like Basscad or Cichlisuite where they take a song and re-do it. A track off Confield that would be cool remixed would be Uviol or Eidetic Casein. For the latter call it the Eicas Remix EP. We can dream can't we?

My prefered 'ambient' type is something that produces a landscape or atmosphere that does't resemble music. An example would be Bronchusevenmx24 where it appears to be inside a cave or something.
Ambience is hard to describe or define cause there are too many variences within itself. You can call Brian Eno's piano pieces ambience...or you can call a washy sound with noises ambience too.

i make a distinction between ambient techno and ethereal ambient. the former can have percussion and more traditional structure, the latter is the typical 'soundscape.'
the common trait is that ambient isn't meant to be actively listened to, but sits in the background, even if the only other thing you're doing is sitting and thinking. however it isn't meant to be ignored; it should insert itself in the periphery of your aural attention.

ambience is a sound or set of sounds that feels like a physical presence (apparently)....depends on what tag you then put onto it ie ambient tekno or ambient chocolate brownies or even ambient pants?

true ambient for me is something like On Land, that is full of bird sounds, and frogs, and all that good stuff, yet it still have music... it creates a landscape in your mind, a place... and the music creates a mood for that place... it's very cool... This album is so excellent in my opinion... it just creates perfect images in your head of these landscapes, and then the synth work, and music like that creates these errie moods that fit perfectly with the landscapes... it's excellent...
but then there is ambient with percussion (again I refer to Passion) and it can have the same effect...

I consider most of Autechre's stuff ambient. Even tho it usually has really intense beats and glitch.

yeah...to me theres true ambient...like brian eno, saw2, biosphere, harold budd, lustmord etc... which is usually really subtle and without beats and is meant to become part of the environment...like spriggan and funkmaster said...
then theres like ambient techno, house, etc...like saw85-92, monolake, vadislav delay, aspen, the orb, isan, atom heart, b12, plastikman, artificial intelligence ara stuff, etc...which is like ambient..but has beats mixed in...so its intended more for listening to ...less for the background
