my stunning revelations!!!

ok, maybe the title of this post was misleading, but it is
stunning to me! i realized today that i have talked WAY too
much crap on some of autechre's releases, and i would like
to clear the air. i have been wrong in my trash talking.
first, confield: i have stated that i dont like this album
for the most part and that i dislike most of the material.
this is not true... i relaized today that i dislike only 2
of the 9 tracks. so as a whole, i DO really enjoy confield.
second, gantz graf: i said that i dont like anything abou
tthis ep, i was also wrong... i DO like the third track
"cap.iv" alot. and third, ep7: i have said in the past that
i thought this was a filler release... once again i was
wrong. i dislike only 3 of the 11 tracks. all this being
said, i would like to apologize to autechre (not that theyll
ever read this) for being so harsh in my critique of their
work. i know how it feels to be slagged for your art, and i
am sorry that i have disrespected your efforts. that being
said, i will run out tomorrow and get ep7, because it really
does kick some booty. oh, btw.... just got "cichlisuite"
cdep, VERY nice.

you are allowed to dislike what ever you choose..but yes
slamming entire albums based on disliking one or two tracks
IS harsh

hahahaha no what im saying is that i never realised that i
liked that much of them because i never really gave them a
chance. i just kind of wrote them off as poop. ep7 i
understand why i did it... i thought it was like "diet lp5".
not quite as good as the original. gantz graf, well, erm....
moving right along, confield i just initially couldnt get
past what seemed like a prevailing theme of malice or
violence i sensed from them. i guess it is still kind of
there on a few tracks, but i dont see it as completely
monstrous as i did before. it just sounds more sleepy to me
now than anything.

you sense violence in autechre?
all I sense ranges from abstract implacable emotions to
sadness..

my revelation:
i always thought aphex is overrated.well i was wrong.i'm
listening to icbyd and it's great.i still prefer autechre
but aphex it's really important,influent and a great
composer.
sorry i'll never say again that aphex is overrated.
i was an asshole ehehehehee

WOW! thats awesome that you've been able to discover twin! i
remember the first time i heard icbyd, i had never heard
anything like it before... ah, those were the days! if you
are digging that, i think the next step might be rdj album,
which is my absolute favorite of all his works. or
windowlicker might be a nice little treat to get into. the
third track on that is one of my favs, too. i'm so very
happy for you, that's excellent! his music is so
exceptional!

glass eater... yes it certainly is!!! my second favorite
autechre cd!!! especially because it's the double disc with
those 2 MAGNIFICENT ep's attatched.

that just seems so strange to me, no offense. i got into
twin when icbyd first came out. ive loved him ever since. it
took me a long time to get into autechre. i STILL have
reservations about some of their work. it just semms like
people are usually the other way around: they get real into
twin, and then that allows them to appreciate something a
little harder to swallow, like autechre. im curious as to
what it is exactly you dont like, or what gives you problems
with rdj's stuff.
