yeah, qrter. the leaked copy sounds 180deg different in my car, compared to shitty computer speakers, and even vs good cmoputer speakers. it's really crazy/weird. wonder what the final version will be like. |

I haven't heard the mp3 versions, but even there it should make a big difference. |

milkfactory review 1 The title to Autechre’s eighth album could be the band’s most obvious and bold statement yet. In the fourteen years that separate the release of their very first single, Cavity Job, to their latest opus, Sean Booth and Rob Brown have remained totally impermeable to fashions and gimmicks, influences and distractions. Their complex and impeccable sonic world has remained totally unchallenged, untilted. Except that statements of that sort are not Autechre’s style. Sean Booth and Rob Brown are too busy constantly pushing the boundaries of their body of work to brag, or even simply point out the obvious. Their exploration of sound is their statement, abstraction their mode of expression. Formed in the late eighties by Booth and Brown while the pair lived in Rochdale, a suburb of Manchester and brought together by a passion for hip-hop, street graffiti and skate-boarding, they soon began experimenting, first with tapes and turntables, then with computers and various electronic devices before eventually creating their own machines. Followed a first single, Cavity Job, for the short-lived Hardcore Records in 1991, before they signed with then burgeoning Warp Records. Fourteen years, eight albums and numerous EPs later, Booth and Brown have become the epitome of the Warp sound of the last fifteen years, and are more than ever one of the most uncompromising acts around. |

milkfactory review 2 With Untilted, Autechre continue to push the boundaries of their sonic experimentations forward as they assemble forever more intricate and unusual beat structures and sonic constructions, relentlessly pushing their audience into darker, more remote corners. As on their previous two records, Booth and Brown destructure melodic sequences and beat patterns to the point where they appear totally disassociated, pushing sombre waves in the background while unpredictable percussive noises roll ahead. Yet, this album features some of the more playful moments Autechre have recorded in years. Whereas Confield and Draft 7.30 appeared to some too hermetic and distant, as lost in clouds of abstraction, Untilted unveils a series of varied soundscapes draped around often prominent melodic structures. More direct and upfront than its predecessors, this album is built around a far wider sonic scope and varied sequences, ranging from gritty moments (Augmatic Disport, The Trees) to busy metallic structures (Ipacial Section) and electro-magnetic interferences (Pro Radii, Fermium). Human voices can be perceived in many places, be it twisted and treated, as on the final segment of Ipacial Section, as the beat slowly winds down, or on Pro Radii, where distinct chopped up crowd noises can be heard amidst other sonic shards. With beats and melodies constantly mutating around various themes and sometimes found echoing from one track to another, Autechre create a particularly dense sonic mesh, which contrasts greatly with the arid soil of Confield and, to a lesser extent, Draft 7.30. This doesn’t however mark a return to more commonly accepted forms of music for Autechre; they have long since left these to less inspired or adventurous musicians. Untilted is mysterious and complex, yet sociable and playful. Untilted is, above all, one of Autechre’s most perfect records to date. 4.9/5 |

I like the Untitled it is really good but Untitled is such a stupid name wtf I mean they could at least think of a title no? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the title is irrelevant. the milk factory review sounds promising. luckily autechre are big enough for their music to be released in shops over here, even if it takes a bit longer to reach our shores. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no. being such a big autechre fan i thought you would already have known that titles and song names mean jack shit to them |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, unlike most of what is produced in this field of music. |

the best way to enjoy Untilted is loud as Combo said. However, I would say that it sounds better played with another copy of Untilted at the same, where the second copy has a 5 second delay. That sounds fucking sick, man. Also, with Confield feeding into it sporadically every 15 seconds. |

more sad proof that mp3 is quickly becoming the audio-standard. :( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
seriously, is this some huge and scary internet joke? since when do people prefer files on a computer instead of actual cds? i don't get this at all. and it pisses me right off that people are reviewing this, regardless of the fact if these shitty mp3s are 'real' or not. by some unfortunate random link clicking i ended up on the bleep site where apparently the whole bastard was available for 'preview'. Since when does preview mean 'listen to the entire album, every track, full length'. I'd only heard fermium from warp and intended to keep it that way, but now it's all ruined. |

What's your problem? |

i just said so. i dont like people reviewing unreleased albums. git. |

by accident you listened to the whole 70 minutes? |

He's got extremely small hands. I'm talking about hands the size of a small child's, here. |

Most reviews come out before the albums. I really don't understand what's there to be angry about. |
||||||||
|
|

|

Oh Jesus I'm sorry. |

|

i think autechre are overrated |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you almost destroyed the universe with that observation. luckily, noone cared. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i just browsed through it and it all sounded equally awful. much like draft 7.30. i would much rather come to this conclusion after hearing it on cd. i cant really explain why. horsefactory: that's a lie |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think Autechre are gay and they like eachother a bit too much. But not as much as I like they, they are sexy young men yes. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
just browsing through it hardly does it justice, though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"Most reviews come out before the albums" yes but we're in a different situation here in case you hadn't noticed. autechre will release something completely different, though most likely equally awful. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they will? Whatever they do, I hope more pictures are taken of them so me and my girlfriend can look at them for long periods of time in awe and gratitude to their lovely genetics. Aww. |

Only cunts thought the first leak was a fake. |

i think qrter is overrated |
