it took me a few months to get into draft, but once i did......awesome stuff.
was this the same for everyone, or did it 'click' straight away? both confield and draft have taken a bit of work on my part to get into, but it was well worth it!

just last week, myself and princo were treated to "xylin room" at really loud volume when they played it in a local melbourne pub, there really are sound that you can hear when it's loud that you would otherwise miss

The beats are excellent. I'd really like *some* form of melody, though. Whether it's the weird abstract synths of Confield or what. Draft just seems to be lacking synths on most track. Sounds half finished. Some really great stuff on it, all the same.

I haven't listened to Draft in a while, but when i did listen to it, after a while it just clicked and everything was great. Some excellent tunes on there.

well, it took me a few days probably :D
i felt that getting into Draft was really a piece of cake, may be because i'd been 'trained' by Ae's previous albums, especially Confield, of course.
Draft seems to be less ambient than Confield... it's more upbeat and funky, as some of xltronic members said once (probably it was Empiricus)...
yeah, FUNKY is the word ! :)

where to start
as always they are invent more of the original and fattest beats ive ever heard
..words escape me
6ie.cr, pntil, - GAWD SUCH DELICIOUS BEATS
dont even get me started on reinform puls that fucking track has 4 or 5 genius nuances that bring me joy each time i hear them
and i like to let TAPR hit me from time to time. i like how that track busts my skull.
BOOOMP, SST-ST-KSHSSH, BWAAH-BOMP-BOMP, SST-KSHSH
SURRIPERE -- the transition that will leave such a gash in your brain
all of these delicious fat beats and sounds. and each track is just like they are jammin' -- its like graffiti and some of it is totally traumatizing
i mean jesus what else can i say

Well I wrote this in another thread last night, but still...
================ I would give it a solid 8, if it wasn't for those bloody drum samples they use all throughout the albums. I mean, Autechre *is* known through their discography to have parted
out of typical percussions and beats. Their research is extensive and magestual to find out the right sound.
Now what does Draft has? Boring percussions that were done a million times before. I mean, snares and hi-hats and other crapola? ================

Except "reniform puls" of course, but they fuck it up with boring percussion when they change the piece at mid-point.
Sorry I don't listen to Autechre to hear fucking congas doing the same pattern for 4 minutes.
It's something they do all throughout the album also, to switch from interesting to boring (often when they add all those normal percussion sounds) in mid-piece. All through the album you'll find that. "surripere" is amazing old-school ambiant until the bore stuff comes in.

6ie.cr, Theme of Sudden Roundabout, & V-PROC are my 3 favorite trax. very nice beats.
i theorize that 6ie.cr was made using a TR-606, though i could be wrong. the "original" trac title is "606.ie".

the sounds halfway thru surripere evokes images of a weird alien giant being born, looking about in a silly manner, experimenting some, ultimately dissapearing in the onslaught of blindly marching mechanoids :( why must ae always be so sad :(

draft is my fav now, just edging out confield. it only took one listen actually for me to fall for this one. blam! ton of bricks: in fact, I popped her on and laid down on the futon, and listened end to end without stopping, and at the completion of the last track sat up like "that's it?" even though it's a full length album I was craving MORE, bring me more! I think I will be the biggest fan until someone bumps me off.

I hope so, I guess it could happen, but they did go 2 years between ep7 and confield, so it could be 2005 before anything new.

It took me time to get into Autechre and I found that I only managed it by starting with their older stuff. and now I would say I'm a big fan. But tracks like p.ntil I just really can't enjoy. I appreciate the construction but it's just so emotionless to me. I mean it could have been made by a robot. (Whcih no doubt it pretty much was, i.e. MSP MAX or whatever its called).

this was the first autechre album i got just out of curiosity, was a bit kind of wtf/lol to start with but i got into it after a bit.
i remember reading in a review you need to listen to it loud (or in headphones) even though some of the tracks sound a bit noisy and your first instict is to turn it down, because theres a lot of stuff in it you dont hear if you listen to it quietly in the background.
can anyone recommed some artists similair to autechre? i've got like 9 of their albums now and some gescom tunes but i want to hear someone else for a change

i like Tapr a lot, Xylin Room, V-Proc is a super track. Autechre seems to like doing music the way when at first it sounds rhythmic and beautiful, and then they turn randomizers ON,and it still sounds beautiful, though not much rhythmic. Like in Lentic Catachresis (i love it), Xylin Room, Reniform Puls, Cap IV...
