My name is penexpers, feel free to call me autechre, ae, or cichli but do not say you are a bigger autechre fan than me LOL.
Hope to gain a reputation on this post cos the debates seem really interesting. Jus wondering anyone know any artists that are recommended to fans of autechre (not the obvious ones). I've been told coil, arovane, astrobotnia among others.

1/3
"My unwanted Untilted review:
LCC - At about 5 mins in there comes into focus a classic Ae
synth echoing Amber days, I'd like a whole track of this section as I feel I have to sit through the first four minutes awaiting this bit, and I'm not sure the first half compliments the second. But you have to doff your cap in awe
at how they wound such an intricate musical rug over such a
short space of time without it sounding forced and choppy. A
brooding but not overtly dark opener that says "We're Autechre, we are quite clever, it's going to be tricky 70 odd minutes but bear with us and, you know, you might enjoy
yourselves".
Ipacial Section - The sound of a laptop beating to death a billion bedroom breakcore tweenagers. It's robotic, but funkier than anything off of Draft or Confield. I can listen
to this without wishing I wasn't, which is a bonus. Whether
the beat "devlops" to some awesome logorithm is beyond my capacity to detect. I like the sound of Rob banging his ktchen pans. This track says "You like those fast bits? So do we, but possibly not in the same order as you do." The tightly looped sounds that appear about 5:20 begins one of my favourite bits of the album. The ending is loose in a an
elastic manner which pleases my ear.
Pro Radii - A refinement of Confield's excesses, it darts about conjuring all sorts of shifting images, and when it gets funky on yo' ass, is pretty "shiiiiiiiit!!!" inducing.
In another universe this is the soundtrack to a very good Sci-Fi film and Jude Law isn't anywhere near it. Though on reflection, I think Anvil Vapre covered this area a bit more
concisely. That might not be relevant at all."

2/3
"Augmatic Disport - How do I love thee Ae? let me count the
ways (in base 8), the opening is brutal but never hamfisted
and annoying. It says "Stop talking at the back and pay attention whilst we perform our android version of "Sex Machine"". 3:40 on burys possibly a great lost pop song deep
under relentless laser bolts, being spat from a beheomoth attack ship moored over the gaseous moon of Globoud----- whilst at 5 mins we find a cyborg gently weaping at such wanton genocide. Until the hatch is broken down by warrior ants that eat into the mainframe and everything goes fucky.
But the genius comes in, for me, about 7:20 when it mutates
from a darkly 80s instrumental into a very subtle bit of dub
reggae. It was all a doobie induced dream, after all.
Lera: A bit of a darker turn, though suspiciously "skitterish beats over buried atmospheric sounds" formula being employed perhaps once too often. The geeing-up about 3:40 doesn't do too much for me either, it's a bit "oh is it
going to sex up? .... no, no it can't be bothered". Still, skillfully done.
Fermium: Classic Ae. Almost pop chart material, if the world
went sane for five minutes. I wish they'd do a trance remix
of this. I might do it and make "mad dough". Just imagine a
hiiiiiiiiiiiggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhheeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrr diva going over the top "Reach higher, reach rrrr"
The Trees: Easily my favorite title on the album. By now R &
S know we, the humble listener, are beaten to a pleasant pulp and lack the will power to skip forward, so they can do
what the hell they like. Here they update some old techno track that they keep in the background and make it fucky on
top. This does sound a bit more Draft-y to me than the other
tracks. I like it from about 3:20 on when some "space" appears in the background. This track says "You haven't a clue, have you, what we're up to?" and the listener can only
mutely gurn in reply."

"Sublimit: We're at the end of another Ae album, but woooah,
no slipping out early! The best is saved until last. The by
now familiar machine rhythms fire up, a keyboard plays itself, then woaah! the dancefloor is jammed with ghosts of
electro past. This track says "We may be bods, but we still
like to get freaky". Then we're off on a voyage that seems to take us back, back through Ae history, even unto Incunabula. Is that a sample or synth line from Kalpol Introl in there? The battered and lifeless listener is now able to summon the strength to get up and put the kettle on."
