Hello, I am new to this forum. I have done some searching on the topic I am about to post, even so I apologize if I am repeating something that's already been covered. Here's my topic:
It sounds like certain parts of Draft 7.30 are constructed from older Autechre tracks, and I'm not sure how I feel about this.
My main example is P.:NTIL. To me, it is so similar in timbre to Arch Carrier that I suspect Arch was possibly reworked or mangled significantly to create the track. My aural clues are many, especially the deceptive but clear use of the Arch bassline as a distinct sound element far back in the mix, although it happens so fast you might not notice it. This particular similarity is so strong that it distracts me when I listen to it, and my ears prick up like when somebody is sneaking up behind me with a knife.
Anybody else notice this?

maybe that's the intention
i know that whenever i hear a sample of a track that i know and love embedded cleverly into a different track, i'm all like "did you hear that?!!"

I haven't. In fact I don't think I have noticed shared elements in autechre tracks (excluding the EPs, naturally) in this way before. In comparing the two tracks I can see what you mean a bit, but it could just be coincidence.

Hey I heard the bassline that you mentioned! I never noticed it until now. It's at 4:04 am I right? I can hear it clear as day. Cool observation ;D

I don't think there's anything wrong with "sampling yourself." It's like artists using the same motif more than once... just something that they like, or means something to them.

I don't have Arch Carrier so I can't comment on this particular relationship, but I have noticed a few and I do not think that they are deliberate, or rather the product of reworking an old track.
For instance you could consider the melody of yulquen to be a rip off of the main one (the one which eventually emerges as a synthesis of all the previous stuff) in eggshell, however I think it is just a manifestation of their own personal style. They have a certain way they like things to sound, and this will by definition consistently affect all of their output. Luckily they have a wide variety of tastes and are constantly evolving, so we have nice things to listen to. Unluckily I seem to be unable to state anything but the obvious at the moment.
I just downloaded Arch Carrier and I think this is another case of what I just said. The common rhythmic/timbre/pitch elements are simply due to the fact that the same people did it, not that they redid an early work. It doesn't clinch the argument, but both works definitely have a completely different point/essence.
I started a thread a while back about internal structure in autechre albums, and I remember great posts therein by mappatazee and horsefactory... anyway Draft7.30 is quite a far evolution from earlier stuff and I think this is coincidental.

You don't have Arch Carrier... that means you DON'T HAVE LP5 ????????666666666!!!„¢~!!!11„¢??? Run to buy it, man!
Speaking of LP5... I have the white version (which kinda suck), but I was in a store last week and I saw the frosted black version. Should I get it? I mean is it worth it for like 15$ even if I already have LP5.... or should I leave this copy for somebody else to discover AE. Hmmm, anybody? Same goes for EP7, if I find the frosted one I'll jump on it as it's the one with the hidden track (not my plain version)...

get it on vinyl,
I have the white one too unfortunately
Have you ever wondered how it would sound to you if you had gotten the black frosted version? It would probably be totally different. No joke.

actually I downloaded it while writing the post and waited for it to finish.. so I was able to comment on it at the end. True I don't have lp5; I just started listening to autechre but already have 8 albums (I like them quite a bit as you can likely tell).

Aquinas, you got the time right- 4:04. You are definitely hearing the same thing I am. It repeats a bunch of times as well. Also, there are other elements in there that are quite similar to Arch Carrier, although the patterns/notes are far different.
I gotta give props to Autechre for the fact that I'm still making weird connections on an album that I've had for a year.

..which would logically mean you like a completely different group than autechre, as mp3-technology can be pretty harsh on their music..

It doesn't matter... remixes can be as compelling as originals some times better(for example "come to daddy" ep).
"I'm not sure how I feel about this."

oh yeah... definitely... as much as i listen to new stuff i'm always further and further acquainting myself with the stuff that i've found over time... as welll as discovering alll the good stuff that came out years ago... i used to listen to autechre all the time, and i'll probably never stop listening... just haven't listened lately...

are they talking about like two 'ding dong' kind of notes that sound kind of like the 'plucked' notes in arch carrier. Whatever, I don't see how this makes it 'constructed out of arch carrier'
