I just read this in a post that I have seen expressed before and that is "Confield is to weird". I can't tell you how disappointed I am to hear this out of this community. I know everyone has varrying tastes but I would never shun anything for being "to weird". This genre has pushed popular music to extremes that I have never heard before and love it for that.
Umm... there is not many rants on this board is there? :-)

Hey Apt, I love Confield. It seems to me that the people who aren't feeling it don't respect the idea of sacrificing substance for feeling, but I think maybe they just don't give it a chance because Confield is damn raw. Maybe somebody who doesn't like it can speak for their self though.

I don't think it's ''too'' weird, I think it's just weird enough, without being too inaccessible. It was my first Autechre experience, for better or for worse... it was tough getting into it. I went backwards, kinda...

Compared to Chiastic Slide, Confield is actually very decent.

Autechre is so special. People lump their material in with anything else as if it was just some other act soon to be stomped out, not even that good or something. Weird.

indeed, autechre will be remembered in the years to come for sure. Think about, in 20 years are you still gonna rock all this obsure shit no. Afx autechre mabey squarepusher and BOC. Dj Shadow this is timeless stuff. everyone else while great is not what might saw is timeless i might be wrong. people are way more in to bands like faust and neu! than they were when they first came 30 years ago ya....,.,.,.,

It's definitely sexy... Cfern would be good to strip to, Uviol, Eidetic Casein, Parhelic Triangle, Lentic Catachresis... good songs to fuck to.
I always thought EP7 was weird, too... it's SO robotic.

I dont think this type of music IS timeless, I think it will still be listened to, but in reallity its still followed by a lot of people out of the technical side, which means things like Incunabula and stuff doesnt have any, or much impact. sure people will still listen to them, but I think its bands that mix the technical and more contempory elements, like Tortoise that will stand the test of time. though if any of the "IDM" type electronic artists last, you know its going to be Autechre, Aphex and Boards of Canada.

well thats bollocks as the english might say. Bands like the beatles, pink floyd, hendrix were pushing technology to the abosult limit and no-ones say that suff is overtly technical. I love that music so its say to its timeless you know cause it still sells. autechre are what is defined as a cult band......remember that they could turn comerical at some point to come...well probably not.. and anyways country and rock music on the radio is closer to electonic music than you think.. there isn't an song out today that hasn't been computerly doctored. expect the strokes and all that rambling

most of the weirdness of confield wears off after many listens. but it's definitely the autechre album that took me the most time to get into.
