I'm really starting to love the early sound they had. The cleaner, more melodic style of Incunabla and Amber. Some of it is a bit dated, but I love the arrangements and compositions. Obviously, it doesn't look like they'll ever do it again. So are there any artists that rip off that sound? I want to hear more of it. I can't really explain the sound, though, Autechre is so indefinable. |

cavity job and accelera?! that far bac? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

Actually, I've never heard Cavity Job. I'm after those clean synths and beats that they use in Bike, Kalpol Intro (BEAUTIFUL synth!), Piezo, you know, when they sounded less machinistic. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Arovane is pretty similiar. |
||||||||

Kalpol Intro rocks |

Phobiazero, how come and you don't have a lightsaber?? |

cavity job is good... completely different from modern ae... |

best to approach AE in the order they were made...you then get some sense of an overall strcuture to their work that unites the various strands; listening to something like Confield without any grounding in their work could put you off AE for good... I think they always had a secret eye on the dancefloor in their early tracks & it's that which gives em their appeal i think; they are certainly easier on the ear than later AE...but they've def left all that behind for quite some time now... AFX is like this as well...best appreciated as ongoing process... |

The new trax are quite dance friendly especially my favourites - dial and cap.iv |

confield is a piece of shite, imo. |

Imagine the beats of LP5/EP7 combined with the synth-work from the three first ae albums. Listen to Eggshell from Incunabula. The synth-strings at the beginning, under that intro bass sound, are stunning. It starts with a low note, a subby tone and then sneaks in the higher layers. It's like classical music from the future ca 1993. -P |

what do you think about tri repetae?! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Three first albums refers to Incunabula as the first, Tri Rep as the third. |
||||||||

I STARTED at Confield, and worked my way back... that was an adventure. I hated everything I heard, thought they were overrated... but now I'm convinced they're the greatest thing since sliced bread. I probably should have started out at Incunabla or something, Confield ALMOST turned me off them... it was a dangerous path (now Confield blows me away twice a day). I like the newer Autechre better, the more abstract stuff... but I love their early work, too, and I want to hear more of that nice synth stlye. Sure as hell aren't going to hear THAT from those guys ever again. |
||||||||
|

| |||||||||
|
|
I can't even name a track from Confield.. I don't listen to it, yet. It's in my book-shelf for now. |

OFExkS: man, Amber is amazing. Its not dated. Check out Gescom.. thats way older tham Amber and all that. Ep1 is great, garbage...... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
as for other artists with a similar sound as incunabula... check out aspen, gimmik, isan, cim, arovane, monolake, lexaunculpt, gescom "Imagine the beats of LP5/EP7 combined with the synth-work from the three first ae albums." see: proem, crunch, phonem, gimmik, nautilis |

get the anti ep! it's brilliant and pretty much old skool autechre. especially flutter |
||||||||
|
|

Amber is one of the most perfect albums I've ever heard... not a bad, or dull moment on the whole thing... I haven't heard any Autechre beyond LP5, but even some places on LP5 I find tiring... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Confield got me into Autechre... |

Tri Repetae ++ - The album that changed my musical tastes 4eva! Ae is life...Ae is w00t! :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I love tri repetae... When I first bought I thought it was a piece of crap and that I wasted my money... But now I totally love it... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Tri Repetae kinda sucks... Amber is WAY better... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Phonem's Hydroelectric is very nice, very much in the style of Amber, but sunnier and happier. More specifically, it sounds like Slip, the best song imho on Amber. I could rip you some Oggs if you'd like. |

Tri Repetae kinda sucks... Amber is WAY better... No way! tri repetae r0x |

Don't fake the funk now... |

I am very fond of the crunchy gritty sounds of chiastic slide ,i love the way they tangle the beat half way through a song and come clean again with a new beat thats fuc*ing skill!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I love ae |
||||||||
|

how old is old? i really like "lost" but nothing much else i've heard really does it for me. any suggestions what else i may like which i probably haven't heard? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
aye.. check out ruxpin... his album 'midnight drive' is very nice and somewhat incunabula-ish at times also look for stuff by aspen |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh, i said aspen in my earlier post.. i figured.. well, to be more specific...look for his album 'are you that retail snob?' |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
try the Russian duo called EU. they have a few cd's out and are pretty good. they sound pretty early ae-ish. |
||||||||

When I got my first Ae CD, I went on this board, and went like "it's crap, why the hell is everyone listening to it", and then... slowly, I began to journey deeper. It's been 2 years since I heard Ae for the first time, and I really got into Confield and stopped thinking shit about it only a month ago. Evolve! But that doesn't mean Amber and Incunabula are 'dated' or something. Don't tell me you only listen to Confield since you liked it, I can't imagine such a mutant way of treating Ae records. And Cavity Job is dance techno fun, primitive YEARS back before Incunabula, nothing very special, but it still contains some Ae soulpiece... Does anyone know what are those samples there?.. isn't the one on Cavity Job from some movie about that maniac dentist who mutilated ppl? 'I don't want you to panic... Just slip back and relax...' 'Aaarhhgh.. ghaaarghaashaRRhh... HREEAHH! GRHAAEHH!!!' '(intense city noise on background) Everybody on the freeway just stopped... police had no choice but... but to close the freeway! ... ...(noise raising) THE MOST AMAZING SIGHT.. EVER VIEWED BY THE HUMAN EYE!(into distortion)' |

Arovane - Tides. Get it, love it. It's kind of a mix between BoC and Autechre. Although his newer stuff kinda jumped to glitch. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Plod and CiM are pretty similar to their older sound I'd wager, check them out. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

there's a lot of old ae tracks on all sorts of compilations. you can find them with slsk. piobmx2 (i think it's called) is absolutely wonderful. sounds like ae meets sawii |

3 if you graph the numbers of any system, patterns emerge |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
Also the EU & Tenzor collaboration 'Christmas Baubles And Their Strange Sounds'. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
If you like autechre´s early sound, try out the gescom ep "the sound of machines our parents used" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes that one's magic too. or keynell |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i wont even read this thread through, i just want to hype that autechres early sound is supernaturally cool and about the best electronica ever. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
except for that cavity-job release, kinda cheesy. but at least it shows the enormous development they went through |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
never even heard of a cavity-job release :o |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think I will download some Autechre eps today... I haven't heard many of em... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
dammit, I'm turning into Ophecks... DAMN YOU CD BURNER!! ;) |

i started off with tri rep, i also didnt like it at first but now i do a lot. i do like chiastic slide and after releases better(especially confield). but i do have cavity job and gescom stuff which are both good earlier stuff. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i started with chiastic slide and it's still my favourite,his recent work is really good as well(i'm thinking of lp5 and confield)but i' more concerned with melodies than with beats so i prefer older stuff,amber is a great record for example and silverside,with tewe,drane2and montreal is my fav ae song |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I also had Chiastic Slide first. And LOVED it!!! However, All the other three first albums are absolutely great. Amber rocks - that Silverside tune kicks me off. It's so hard to rate these albums - IMHO, only AFX can be set along with them. Masterpieces forever - they never die or come outdated. As for EU - yeah, they're good, although not nearly as creative/innovative. JFYI: EU is an abbreviation of two Russian letters: "E" and "i" (written like "U" in Russian). These are the first letters of the band title: "Elochnye Igrushki" ("Toys for a Christmas Tree"). |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
I think BOLA SOUP - is the best compliment to Incunabula. I think EP7 is their best stuff. |
