I've just listened to this all the way through, after eventually finding a copy in Tower Records (could find ANY in loads of other shops I searched through...HMV, MVC, etc..) and it shows a musical, tuneful and even slightly jazzy side to Autechre I've never heard before! Especially the second half of Cipater (amazing) and the first half of Nuane. Most of the middle tracks are a little too repetitive for me, but these two amazingly inspirational tracks more than make for it...This CD proves Autechre to be both great sound editors and amazing meldody and ryhthm creators, imho. |

love it This weekend i was visiting an old friend, and we went for a walk quite close to the sea... i could hear the waves, and there was such a strong wind. It was not a sunny typical beach day at all, it was cold and the sky was great and i thought it was a very beautiful atmosphere. And all this time in my head in could here the track "recury" playing :-) It fitted so well with the moment. The music describes that atmosphere so well... Personally i could have lived without "hub", which is too repetitive and boring for me, but i think all the other tracks are great! Wonderful album with amazing artwork. |

Best AE cd. In ma professional opinion nigga. |

It's so repetitive... but so awesome. It's kind of ''ugly'', dirty sounds and beats, but it's beautiful like some dying wheezing machine. Yakkity yak. |

The end of nuane is gorgeous. It's like nerve cell firecrackers shot into the air and leaving trails of pitched static. I'm appreciating this album more and more now... it's a subtle piece of work. |

great great album. it makes me think of dirty old dusty machines working so loudly... |

oooooo FORGOT TO MENTION HUB. |

This album kicks serious ass, it's been one of my favorite elecronic albums since I finally got it a few months ago... close call between this and Amber as my top from ae |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah chiastic slide is excellent, one of my favorite autechre releases for sure but I like confield best so far. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ummm...s'OK, a definite turning point, but not their best //*read Theodor Adorno*// |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i agree, not the best, but still kind of good |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Meh...Chiastic Slide is alright, I rarely listen to it anymore. Their more recent releases are far better. It still has some pretty good tunes tho. Like Tewe, for example. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
But don't you agree with my original post, about it showing off Autechre as musicians more? I mean, listen to that improvising at the end of Cipater-amazing. And those weird and wonderful tunes in Nuane....I'll admit it doesn't have such a good-bad track ratio as, say Confield however. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Good but not great. my beef is like evryone else's .. too repetative. The highlight for me though is Pule, without a doubt .. it's so gorgeous it's ridiculous. *said in the Balki Bartokomoos voice* also the way it leads right into nuane is great. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, actually...it is rather annoyingly repetetive, true. Especially Recury, which I truely WANT to love, but it just goes on way too much! Same with many others. Why couldn't they all had been as precise in length as Cipater and Nuane? I suppose it's all opinion....But I would have prefered it that way. |

when i heard it it was instantly my fav ae release. it's the perfect album for walking and bussing around the city. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
which is your favourite track in this album?? for me track 1 and 4 but apart from those... I am listening right now so I can remember and tell you |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
how you tryin ta fade me?!? i KNOW your favorite track is "tewe" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Chiastic Slide = the shiznit i am deadly fucking serious |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
although i agree with the jazzy/funky nature, this album perturbs me, and i love autechre. i'd say it's their worst release; it seems halfassed. tewe is the only good song. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It sounds like they're trying to squeeze water out of stones in 'rettic ac'. I agree with you on 'cipater', it sounds like they paid more attention to the mix. The detail is more melodic. |
||||||||
|

This album is just incredible. I never really got why Tri Repetae++ was so loved - this is the real gem IMHO. Perfect for an icy cold day - snow falling - and a warm tea in your hand. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't really see this jazz comparison... but yeah, this album kicks major ass... right up there with amber as my favorite... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
in the right mood, this album seems to win my heart....... almost as much as ep7.... haven't heard confield yet, plan to soon. and also awaiting draft 7.30 on april 7 or whatever.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
get confield!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

for me it's always been some sort of getting away from the more acceptable sounds of tri repetae moving on to their more recent stuff. (probably acceptable isn't the word I'm supposed to use right here, but when I put on autechre releases in the presence of friends, they find it weird music, but aren't annoyed by their work up to chiastic). Can't really explain it, but I consider it to be an essential step in their evolution. You should really listen to all their albums after one another to know what I mean. |

oh. I actually think its very summery. especially the breezy recury. |
