Got it going right now from Foil. Love it so much. It's got a neat mix of old qualities (Incunabula's claps and snairs) with their other stages. Id actually say its closer with LP5 than any other. It's one of their more melodic disks and it's fun to drive to.
Oh, dear sweet Amber.

I like Amber and Incunabla about equally... to me, they seem SO distant from their later work. There's a big difference between my Amber mood and my Confield mood.
They're not bad... but I think they could have been better. I like the production and the synths, but I can't put my finger on it... Inc and Amber are missing something. Great stuff, but very embryonic Autechre, they got much better, methinks.

True...but I think some of their best work is on amber. Inc was testing grounds and Amber is like that too I suppose. Tri Rep is where they find themselves I guess? I don't know what you'll think of me saying that. Inc and Amber are the simpler albums...and I like them for that reason.

all that you said is true with incunabula, but not with amber...amber really is like their real point of departure, I mean, i amber you begin to see were they are going to,(incunabula seems to be apart from their process) its true waht amonbrune said about it being so close to lp5, I think all their releases have some of amber in them...i think amber is the "embrion" that they used to create all the rest of the albums

I actually like Incunabla better... maybe just because of Kalpol Intro and Bike... maybe my favorite moment in AE history, those two tracks opening the album. I LOVE Bike!
And since everyone else is doing it... It's 10:47PM here in Sydney, Nova Scotia, and I'm listening to the Beach Boys' Pet Sounds. And watching Detroit/Carolina!

it's 11:26 here in St. John's Newfoundland, and I like both Amber and Incunabula... I haven't heard Amber in a while, but it's quite good, as is Incunabula... I'd have to say I like Amber better though... although, 444 from Incunabula is an amazing track!!!

Amber is an awsome album, so mellow and has that sort of distant feel to it, especially in foil, I love that track. My favorite from this album is probably track 8.
On a side note, this is my favorite cd to play while I'm reading.

I like amber because it shows a kinder, gentler, more melodic autechre. I love "Slip" best of all.

I don't know why nobody acknowledges the brilliance of "Nine"! So atmospheric, so beautiful...
Anyway, I think Garbage was really their turning point from IDM stars to IDM geniuses. Such a great EP. But Amber is wonderful too.

Piezo is my favourite Autechre track. Literally stunning. Amber's my favourite Autechre album. It's one of my all time favourite records. Brilliant.

Ok thx m8, that saves me alot of typing. It's hard to choose a fav track off of this album, even the ones that start off sounding a bit dated still catch me later on in the songs. Amber and Tri Repetea are the only AE releases I like but they're important classics to me like ICBYD and SAW2 are.
