I like Richard James, but i'm not big on Autechre. They got some OK stuff (LP5, EP7) I don't particularily like them though.

those of you who don't like autechre have you listened to the progression in their music. do you not like the older more albums or the newer more difficult or abstract works. those of you who have heard amber as well as anything they have put out in the three or four years would probably agree that they have redefined their sound. Anyway, I would think that if one likes aphex twin and appreciates his work and evolution as an artist he would also respect their (ae's) progression. also I really don't see how the can be heavily compared. I could see the comparisons between mu-ziq and aphex. such as mu-ziq'a lunatic harness and the richard d. james album. I've always thought that autechre has a unique understanding of space in their music that gives their music a sound that is their own. what is the most important record in the idm electronica scene to have come out thus far? I think it is the richard d. james album. But my personal favorite will always AE's amber. One can fill up space or stretch it out when making a record. I always loved and understood brian eno's ambient albums so I instantly thought Autechre had hit a home run with Amber. anyway I think neither aphex OR ae should be ignored.
cheers

i hated autechre for the longest time after i got into RDJ... like 2 years. it pissed me off cause everybody kept telling me i should get into autechre and i really COULDNT. i dont know, the melodies were fake or something. it made no connection wiht me whatsoever. i asked some autechre fans what cd to try to start with and they all said "amber" or "tri repetae" to tell you the truth, i have always thougth and still think those albums are awful. therye boring, all the tracks sound similar... ugh, they just suck. then finally someone told me to try LP5. Acroyear2(first track) got me interested, thought it was pretty decent. then Rae(3rd track) did it. i was hooked for like 2 months. that song is still one of the greatest songs thgat has ever graced my ears. Rae and Pancake Lizard are the 2 most beautiful melodies i have ever heard. well anyway, after that i got EP7 and then confield. love all of them. i still hate their older stuff but LP5 EP7 and confield ore awesome in everyway. no bad points whatsoever.

You have to lack a human soul in order to appreciate the superiority of autechre.

Autechre/Gescom probably have releases that should satisfy everyone who also likes Aphex Twin. You just need to find them...and don't give up!
Check out Autechre.nu for samples...

I've actually been listening to Inancabula (sp?) quite alot recently, also EP7.1 and .2. I think their music still has character, its just a different character to aphex's music.

I'm probably *one* of the biggest autechre's fans,... I have ALL of their releases either on cd or mp3 (with the exception of 17 of the gescom minidisc tracks,.. but I'll have all 88 one day!!!)
and I also have almost everything aphex,... and what I'm about to say is going to hurt,..
I beleive that autechre is better than aphex,.. now we can all go on about the "you can't compare two completely different types of music" point,... but away from that,... I think that aphex is just good at what he does,... Autechre though,.. is something else,... to the point where it's no longer music and more of an experience,.. very few aphex tracks have ever acheived this,... but almost everything of autechre manages to strike home,...
this is just my opinion,... so none bite my head off ok? @:<)>

you would be the biger fan seeing as you dedicated an entire site to them,...
and also you are probably the sole reason that they have as much recognition around here as they do,.. you've bought the domain name,... and taken many of your hours to ensure that everything is up to date and recent,... I salute you,..
P.S. when should I expect aphextwin.nu v5 and updates on autechre.nu,... (P.S.S. I like the "show all albums on the one page" function you added to the explore section,... you might wanna do the same with the sinlges,.. keep up the good work :))

No, no, I'm a dishwasher. That's why I like autechre so much. I'm a mechanical machine, that's what autechre is about. Actually, there is no such thing as a soul, unless someone can point out where it exists in the human anatomy, next to the kidneys or something...
I said it lacks soul though and meant that the music of autechre lacks anthropomorphic qualities. It leaves the human viewpoint, and enters the mind of technology. It's not human friendly, unless you are a mathematician or one interested in the process of evolution or something. It is purely logical. I REALLY like it though, I certainly wasn't dissing their music. Maybe you were offended at the thought of lacking a soul yourself? Things I say are subjective. I don't believe in souls, I just used that word as a metaphor.

Evolution is the single most interesting process that I am aware of. It is capable of creating absolutely insane complicated things, the blind watchmaker they call it. It is responsible for the subtle detailed forms life, technology, language, the universe's composition etc. have taken. It operates on the tiniest levels possible without effort, something difficult for humans with their large clumsy fingers. I really want to figure out a way to put the process to use somehow, if it can create complicated humans, I want to see what else it can do.

hehehe,...
the only way to bend evolution to our will is to use a bit of reverse psychology,... I'll explain : If you want a tough human that can withstand any treatment,... make them grow up in a really rough envoronment,.. eventually they will learn to cope,.. but I guesswe could do the same thing's with humans,... simply make it a matter of life or death, as to whether they "solve this question or not" and so-on,.. that's my opinion anyway
anyone wanna hear my cyborg theme song?

Every thing in this world is natural. if the word natural means 'of this earth' then every thing from mushrooms to dishwashers to kermit the frog to processed cheese is natural. Anything produced by humans will always be 'human' even if it is proposed to to be 'robotic' or 'mechanical'. as long as it is produced by Humans, it is human.
excuse me if i'm wrong, but i don't believe that either member of autechre are dishwashers or lawn mowers, and so thier music will always be 'human' as that is what they are.
