ive not really listened to saw 89-92 properly for a long time, so last night i put it on, and i was like; whoa! this cd rules. i listened to incunabula this morning and i was like; whoa! this cd rules aswell, its interesting to see how the 2 albums are similar in the light of afx and ae later stuff

i don't think they are comparable. They are both top-notch though

I think he meant comparable to later work from the artists involved not to each other as releases.
I agree both are excellent peices of work and regardless of how the technology and styles used over the years you can still hear the same sort of unique flavour in their work.

I don't like SAW 1 at all. Incunabula however, is magic.

who'd a thought that from incunabula and saw, ud get tracks like surripere and mangle 11 10 years down the line. i dont reckon they're similar at all, it just struck me how afx and ae initiated themselves music wise and then they're progression into today (my syntax rules)

in these albums there are 2 masterpieces... one is 444 by Ae and one is Heliosphan by AFX.
I think SAW85-92 is better than Incunabula but maybe not better than Amber.

Amber is ok, it has some nice tracks but i think it lacks any real distiction. I think incunabular is much better than amber and tri repetae blew both of those out of the window.

in the old days, definitely saw85 92
but now I've listened to it too much
incunabula has staying power imo, I can still listen to that the right way through all the time,..

it has been thoroughly established by the midnight (EST) shift of the aphextwin.nu slsk room that autechre is better than aphex twin in absolutely anything and everything.
the group however cannot form an equal opinion on squarepusher.

SAW 89-92?? Wasn't it 85-92?
Anyway, Incunabula is a million times better in my opinion. Xtal was a cool track though.

Although I like Autechre better than Aphex Twin, I must say that I enjoy SAW 85-92 more than Incunabula. I find Incunabula to be a bit boring after a while.. probably because I cannot divorce it from their later work that is so full of complexities and mutations. It just seems repetetive in comparison. I suppose the same thing could be said about Aphex Twin, but somehow I think SAW is more lovely and representative.
