||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

||||||||
|
|

It's a great album indeed. Don't know if anyone underestimates it, if so: Shame on you! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The thing is. more so than any other autechre alubmn works as a complete whole... some tracks don't make sense when listened to seperately but when taking all together it's like one great novel.... i used to listen to this albumn so much.... chiasitc and confield have a connection in a sense... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Wonderful for you. I dream of listening to all Ae albums for the first time again... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
chiastic slide, the turningpoint for ae, the album where they started to really get experimental. you got the listen to it very loud. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
heard today for like the second time, very nice indeed... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah man wicked album my favorite ae, after ep7 or actually i prolly like this better than ep7 i really dont listen to autechre as much as i should |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
bah! Humbug. It's fabuloso, but mediocre by their standards. It does have classics though, specifically Pule and Recury. Cipater too. I just think they have better work than this. Even Envane and Cichlisuite are more interesting to me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's their most 'machine-sounding' release. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
mediocre? i don't think so at all. great listen, i love the style. |
||||||||

ahh, I dunno, I think personally I like it because it was the first Autechre album I got so there is attachment there, but its also good in a respect that it really is a transitional album, (as stated by Autechre; not a follow up to Tri Repetae; LP5 is the follow up to Tri Repetae) combining ambience with the new experimenting. I just think it has so much texture. And also the way the album is put together, I heard they drew from about 70 songs. The different ground it covers is awesome, and the way it goes way out and is reduced to nothing in the end... |
||||||||

It's incredible, very crunchy and makes me want to eat some raw carrots. Don't AE themselves consider this the red-headed step child of the AE family though? The weak link? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
great lp yes |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
First idm album i ever heard! must say it was a bit hard to get into at first, but it's definately my favourite ae release. sounds so metallic...i love it!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
man, everyone here loves this one. i think it's too repetitive, the weakest ae release. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Too repetetive, yes! Weakest release, no ..... Incunabula is the worst. Ugh, now that one is boring. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no way man, bike whoops anything on chiastic |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well glad MOST of you like it.... in america lp5 was the follow to tri repeate to most listeners ... any ways yes 70 songs which became envane, chiastic slide and cichisuite... all good... chiastic slide is undoubtable a transitional albumn....but that doesn't stop it from being the best.... also... i think most listeners heard it for the first time years after it was released... i didn't get into autechre untill ;bout 2000... it still sounds ahead of it's time and most electronica..... |

from lonelymachines.org: In retrospect, Chiastic Slide stands as one of their best records, and is generally considered the great lost electronic record of the 1990's. Its influence on the electronic scene is noticable even today in the work of groups like Four Tet and the Boards of Canada. Even Thom Yorke cites it as an influence. At the time of its release, however, critics were split between calling it brilliant or screaming that it was unlistenable. Nothing records, in sticking with the general botch-job they've done handling things, declined to carry the record at all for American distribution, and for five years, listeners stateside would be forced to pay upwards of $30 for an import copy. A casual listener would never have heard Envane, which is a crucial link between Anvil Vapre, Tri Repetae and this. As a result, the dark, organic and edgy material here would have seemed like the output of a completely different group. There isn't a single straightforward beat to be found on this record. If Tri Repetae was the sound of machines coming to life and chattering away to each other in the dark, then this is the sound of those machines trying to drag themselves out of a dark tarpit under the glare of acetylene lights on some forgotten evil robot construction site. |

is this album better than LP5? so far I don't like it that much, though I'm sure that'll change |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

chiastic and lp5 are both genious its incredible cos all the albums I find them genious incunabula - excellent begining amber - absolutely perfect ambient that shows a bit of what is about to come tri repetae - perfct maths chiastic slide (read this thread) lp5 - the most diferent in my opinion and maybe their best (not for me) confield - my favourite draft 7.30 - beautiful amazing 7 albums. all of them could easily be in a list of the top 50 electronic albums |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's been a while that I listened to Chiastic, and I am listening to it now. Only the Cipater, and damn it, this album is fantastic. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I absolutely love Confield does amber come off really dated nowadays? or does it hold up pretty well like SAW2 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think amber is great... amazing... whereas incunabula does sound dated in some places, I don't find this to be true with Amber... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
first ae song i heard was foil, and i thought i was amazing...now i have trouble listening to amber, it's probably my least favourite as for chiastic slide...i love it. i love the was ciapter glides into the slower beat half way through, it's just an amazing track! i remember listening to hub on the way home late at night a while ago, and i (wasn't driving) was just zoned out trying to keep with the beat, it was an incredible feeling |
||||||||
|
|

yes I just listened to it and man... its a beautiful album. I enjoyed a lot the last 3 tracks today |
||||||||
|
|

*Chiastic Slide* is the one album that can make my jaw drop in wonder everytime I listen to it. It is so rich, it is almost tangible...I can feel this music like a physical presence around me. It is just so chunky, crunchy and funky...and parts of it are so beautiful, they make me cry. |
||||||||

Those sounds! Those rusted, grinding, mucky, glorious sounds! :) |

i liek teh Tewe. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
cichli.....gorgeous track (in fact, pops it in tha cd playa) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Man after reading this I want to listen to it...infact I think I shall! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I own it! I bought it only today, I had it on mp3 before and really liked it very much. It's a great album, very surreal sound, I like that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's my favourite autechre-album. It's so haunting... all those songs quickly found a way into my head, and now it's like they've always been there. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Cipater rocks my firkin world |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Chiastic Slide is maybe my favorite Autechre... heh, I always seem to pick a different favorite... this was my second purchase, and I just always loved it... at least three of the songs are classics, Cipater, Tewe, Cichli... I bet any Autechre fan listing their top 10 autechre songs would include at least one of these three songs, if not two or all three of em... this album is AMAZING!!! Nuane is real sweet too!! |
||||||||

|

'tis great, and 'twas my first ae purchase.. |
