Check out Cichli... it's friggin awesome!!!


 

The_Funkmaster from Newfoundland, Canada on 2002-01-09 04:47 [#00067557]



oh, and Tewe is another great one!!!


 

bumblefuk on 2002-01-09 05:05 [#00067569]



how do you tell them apart??? i like Pen Espers!!!!!!!!


 

The_Funkmaster from Newfoundland, Canada on 2002-01-09 05:06 [#00067571]



easy, they're totally different from each other...


 

teapot from brisbane on 2002-01-09 05:07 [#00067572]



i love them all but theres only 2 that REALLY stand out over
all the other amazing Ae track and they would be

SQUELLER.

TILAPIA.


 

bumblefuk on 2002-01-09 05:15 [#00067577]



has anybody else ever noticed that the cichli EP song titles
are all tropical fish? a tilipia is a type of cichlid, just
like kribensis, or mbuna or aulonacara peacocks, or
freshwater angelfish, or oscars, or discus, or red devils.


i'm sure nobody will believe me, everybody always thinks all
Ae titles are just made up words.


 

teapot from brisbane on 2002-01-09 05:26 [#00067580]



i beleive you, a carachi is a fish too and so is pencha... i
think Yeesland is the only one that isn't


 

Caserol Joe the Chubby from MPLS on 2002-01-09 06:04 [#00067596]



I'm sure some are just abstract titles, but I know a lot
have meaning. Like Cichlisuite is pronounced "sickly
sweet."


 

teapot from brisbane on 2002-01-09 06:15 [#00067602]



isn't catachresis when you can't explain something? in ae's
case its errrr... lentic (im not gonna pretend too know what
that means)


 

wayout from a plastic bubble on 2002-01-09 06:25 [#00067604]



actually..i think 'catachresis' means to use a word out of
context for stylistic purposes...
perhaps they have a sense of humor after all? albeit a nerdy
one..
i dont know what lentic means though...


 

Caserol Joe the Chubby from Minneapolis on 2002-01-09 06:58 [#00067608]



lol! that's great humor!


 

Korben Dallas from _ on 2002-01-09 12:45 [#00067645]



Yeah .. Squeller is tops!

I'd also add
Dropp
Zeiss Contarex
(mind you that is with a bit of an ep7 fetish)

Any one got/heard Peel Sessions 2: while Ae's live
performance isnt' as great as their studio efforts -
especially when its put onto cd- it has some
mean[/incredible] percussion - !!


 

Earface from from on from on from on on 2002-01-09 15:44 [#00067670]



I absolutely love Ae. I listen to them a lot more than Aphex
Twin these days.

My favourite tunes (in no particular order) :-

Foil, Montreal, and Teartear from AMBER

Dael, Clipper, Stud, and Overand from TRI REPETAE

mostly everything off of CHIASTIC SLIDE

everything off of LP5 (apart from Fold4,Wrap5), especially
UnderBOAC, Corc, and Acroyear2

everything off of CONFIELD (this album is an amazing work of
art in my opinion)

everything off of CICHLISUITE
and
everything off of ENVANE

I'm still waiting for EP7 to be delivered.
I still haven't heard ALL their tracks.


 

teapot from brisbane on 2002-01-09 15:49 [#00067673]



wow, how can you NOT like Fold 4, Wrap 5... thatsong makes
my brain go weeeee!!!

no really it does.


 

Earface from from on from on from on on 2002-01-09 15:54 [#00067678]



I just don't like the way it doesn't pick up at all. It just
changes between two different tempos all through the track
and doesn't really go anywhere. Sometimes I can appreciate
this sort of phrasing but on this track I can't (at least
not yet) get into it.
Nevermind.


 

hevquip from 45.697 bits of electricity on 2002-01-09 16:37 [#00067698]



i like:
dropp
netlon sentinel
arch carrier
vltrmx21


 

ken from ken on 2002-01-09 16:46 [#00067701]



yeah, why does everyone hassle them for confield-its a
fucking ace album, the best in my opinion...


 

recycle from lincoln,ne on 2002-01-09 17:45 [#00067729]



tri-repeatrae is a great double disk

ep7,condfield are good


 

umbriel on 2002-01-09 20:19 [#00067777]



i like autechre a lot too. i dont know the whole of their
work, but a lot of the tracks i have heard stagnate at some
point. they get the texture they want and they just play
around with it. it can become predictable sometimes.
lentic doesnt mean anything. it is similar to lenticular but
it wouldnt make more sense in the "context".
my favourite tracks: gelk, tewe, ccec


 

Caserol Joe the Chubby from Minneapolis on 2002-01-10 20:28 [#00068171]



lentic... lentals:)
