I'm not very experienced with their stuff, but I want to start buying some... I own Incunabula, but that's it... what should I go for next? |

Neither am I, I have the same dilemma. I think they're overrated, but we'll see... I know some good songs, but I don't know what albums to get. |

I think Incunabula is pretty awesome... a few of the songs sound dated, but overall it's good stuff... I downloaded the song Rae from LP5 is it? Anyways, that's a cool song... I think I might just work my way up and get Amber and Tri Repetae first... |

I think Autechre sucks. There are about 2 tracks I liked (Rae being one of them) of about 50 I've heard |

It baffles me that people who are into technology enough to be on the computer all the time, and into complex interesting music enough to frequently post messages on a site for aphex twin cannot appreciate autechre. Song 4 on chichlisuite is spectacular to say the least. I have to appreciate the subjective nature of musical taste, but the fact is music like autechre (lp5,ep7,chichlisuite) is more far more detailed and intelligently constructed. I think I know what's happening here... popular artists who make stale boring 4/4 beats PAY lots of people like you to post messages in various messageboards praising boring 4/4 music and trashing anything that is so unique and original that it could give the popular 4/4 beat makers competition. It's a good evil scam, I have to admit. |

"Song 4 on chichlisuite" give me a few more tracks, I'll give them all a listen and give Ae a chance to prove themselves. |

I have the actual cd's and don't know about the quality of the tracks from wherever you get them, but the sound is very intricate and those 30 second samples from say, cdnow.com do it no justice. song 2 on lp5 (very heavy use of panning so use headphones or a good sound system with seperated speakers) really actually any song on lp5 or ep7. try: ep7: song 1 (very good) 4 and 7 lp5: 1,2,3,5,8... chichlisuite: 4,5 tri repetae has nearly equally interesting sound, but the patterns are way more loopy and "accessable" by normal music listeners. |

funkmaster, Ae is worth checking into. I own all the albums and many of their singles. I've never really thought of them as overated. all of the major electronic artists to have different styles that are they're own. richard seems to have the widest range of personality and sound, while squarepusher has his jazz backround and a sound that relies heavily on speed. autechre with mechanical and some say mathematical beats also have the ability to merge that with and underlying dark atmosphere. a lot of people here seem to like squarepusher and bogdan. personally I can't really get into pusher(exception of hard normal daddy) or bogdan. I like stuff like proem, phonem, while, syndrone, and biosphere. even if one doesn't care for Ae he sound give them credit for taking an interesting turn with confield. usually it seems like artists start out with a strong sense of artist integrity and later deviate from the that path taking a more commerical route(come to daddy). here it seems that Ae decided to step further into uncharted waters. oh and Ae's amber may not be their most complicated album but imo its still the best. |

I now have all of LP5, and Amber on my computer... I'm listening to Amber now and I like it... I like the more synthy music best with Aphex Twin, and I'm thinking it's gonna be that way with Autechre... |

sorry don't have time to read all the posts - but um .. yeah .. to me LP5/EP7(more so) chichli, perhaps envane are the pinacle in my opinion. ALtho their older stuff is nice also - if you have incunabula - you may as well buy stuff chronologically --> they have a nice progression .. I don't really think much of their stuff is bad as such - ? hope this is of any help - just an opiniontho |

I don't think autechre is overated. They just take some getting used to. Check out lp5 first (as it is their most listener friendly of their new releases), then go for ep7, then chiastic slide, then cichle suite, then confield. Then if you feel like it , go for their earlier works (if you are like me, you eventually start kicking yourself if you do it the other way around). |

Glad I'm not the only one who's uncertain with Autechre. They get a hell of a lot of praise, but... I bought Confield after reading the comments here and I was really disappointed. BUT someone also recommended Anvil Vapre and I really like that... I also have Peel Session and Basscadet and Gescom Keynell. There SO MUCH other stuff out there so what's good and what's not? |

check out their gescom guise as well-SKAM have reissued the key nell 12 on cd-and theirs some hidden gems on the skampler cd (see warpmart). man i cant believe you guys aren't already knee deep in their stuff!! my top five.. keynell-ae mix (ltd 12 on warp) conform-fuck what people say about being inaccessable all you near is a pair of ears. flutter-off anti ep, preprogrammed beats that dont repeat, with a lush fade out that beats having dinner with jesus amber-sounds a little dated now but still class-their are genes in 'teartear' that ruminate throughout the rest of their catalogue chiastic slide-fucked up crazy industro electro envane-hip hop funk with dr octagon on the decks scratchin like a bear. by the by all of their eps on cd are value for money-45-50mins of genius for a fiver depending on where you shop.. |
