I do find myself somewhat suspicious that they would have to include a gimmic such as a sticker in what otherwise might be their most contested release to date. Is it a consolation prize? Frankly, is it a conceptual strategy to go this minimal? Something just seems knee-jerked about all of this. I wonder if they just released this record to fulfill contract quota in order to sooner jump the Warp ship... Anyways, the divide in realization between this effort and the last is almost to blatant to "chalk up" to the fact that they are old and running out of ideas. The excellent packaging of Draft is an illustration of what can happen when one's strategies are well thought out. |

i think you have some points there; its nothing to do with defending ae if you look at my posts. i listen to incunabula and amber a hell of a lot more than their other stuff, and will continue to do so. |

o_0 i think most fans are happy with their stickers.. imo the point is they just wanted to do it straight simple i really don't understand where you got the contract fulfilling bullshit?? and if you don't like it that's fine, but what the hell is this: "they are old and running out of ideas", pleeeeeaaaaase, i think you are the one running out of ideas on how to criticize them |
||||||||

Well, running out of ideas is better than not having any ideas to begin with. Almost all AE's records blew my mind when i first listened to them. Waiting for new releases was something exciting, cause you never quite knew what direction AE were heading. For me this all changed after Confield...Never really liked Draft, and most of what i heard of Untilted is quite dissapointing. But hey, maybe we should stop posting shit on mb's and try and make some great music ourselves. |
||||||||

|
for the record though yes i like my sticker, and i prefer untilted to draft and confield. |
||||||||
|

|
|
got it today. haven't heard it yet but the artwork...i dunno... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm listening and it sounds ok, not mindblowing (no i didn't check it first on slsk)..but what's this sticker everyone's talking about ? i didn't get that. got a freebie though (a music/design zine) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

I've got very mixed feelings about this release. It sorta sounds mega exciting and increadably half arsed at the same time. Somehow. |

did u order it from WARPmart ? |
||||||||
|
|

HA HA HA! YOU ALL GOT THE FAKES! OH, HOW AMAZINGLY BRILLIANTISTICSISCITSITIC AUTPHFECHRE ARE! NOT ONLY DO YOU THINK THEY'RE CALLED AUTECHRE, YOU ALSO THINK YOU'VE GOT THE REAL UNTIOLESTSTIW! I HAVE THE REAL DRAFTSA.79,3 AND IT ROCKS! OH MY GOD. YOU WERE FOOLED INTO THINKING YOU GOT THE REAL! HA HA HA! HA! HA! HA HA! |

I know what it is....it's the lack of decent melodies. The beats and sounds are pretty tight, but even Draft and definately Confield had better melodies than this release (whoever says Confield has not melodies isn't listening properly-all the tracks except for 4 and 6 have strong melodies imo) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, pre-ordered it from warp.damn it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
don't be disheartened, it's wicked fun! Just not their best, that's all. |
||||||||
|

it's mastered by Noel Summerville. |
||||||||
|
|

|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

"I do find myself somewhat suspicious that they would have to include a gimmic such as a sticker in what otherwise might be their most contested release to date. Is it a consolation prize? " - that really is the strangest notion I have read on this board of very strange notions. |

I already had the promo. I already told you about it. |
||||||||
|

beautiful release :) i like it more than draft to be honest. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh wow I missed that one! damn you, autechre, for wooing us with the siren-call of your stickers! (which are quite ugly, by the way and I say this while quite liking the album art - it isn't so much grey as it is silver) warp make stickers for just about every release anyway. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thank you kind sir :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

i can't find anything appealing with augmatic disport (except *maybe* the ending). apart from that track, i think it's a good album. a little less melodic than before, yes. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think it's my less favourite track too in order of my preferences : 1) pro radii 2) ipacial section 3) the trees 4) lcc 5) sublimit 6) iera 7) fermium 8) augmatic disport i've been getting more in this album for a few listens ; but maybe it's what some of you said : i WANT to like it |

Dumb. Heeeeeello, I was saying that I was certain that WASN"T the case (that they were fading), but the overall coordinated effort towards the record seemed to publicly hint otherwise. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, so uhhhh..... I was saying this might be evidence that something else is going on entirely. Re: trying to leave Warp, Rutterford in a slump, learning new software, etc. Don't get me wrong, it's a bit of a grower and it IS good. It just not as inventive as their other releases were at the time they premiered. |

just got home, it must have come this morning, but I arrived now... it sounds great!!!!!! |

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

| |||||||||
|

I don't like it. |
||||||||
|

I am a good fan I think... I buy every possible record... and I preorder this one, and I dont get the sticker... its not important, but I would have liekd to have it. I might ask warp to give it to me with my next order... I am sure they will understand me eventhough its just a sticker, and probably very simple minimal, but if it came with preorders I want mine by the way, I odnt care the critics... it sounds fucking excellent, and yes, a lot more straight than previous works |
||||||||
|

|
|
I ordered a bunch of shit i better get a sticker or a blowjob |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i've just received it ; and i got the sticker (i ordered it only last monday... ) ; the sticker isn't that beautiful (better than nothing though) the packaging is pretty poor but it's a grower the music is exactly the same as on leak 1, sounding better on CD of course ! i hope it'll grow on me |
||||||||

Warp always give stupid gimmicks away with shit albums. Drukqs by Aphex Twin came with the "Come on you cunts" stick and the postcards, 26 mixes for cash came with the chocolate coins, Gantz Graf came with the little card things and now the sticker with Untilted. (Please note I find two of these excellent releases, one patchy but good and one a waste of time) I think the ae releases are excellent. |

Squarepusher "Feed me wierd things" came with cheese covered with fluff. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i've heard that watmm1 comes with a piece of camembert |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

"Gantz Graf came with the little card things and now the sticker with Untilted." wtf ? first i don't get a sticker with Untilted, and now i read Gantz Graf came with cards?! I didn't get those too. warpmart fuckers. |
||||||||

| |||||||||
|

Little cards with stills on from the video. |
||||||||
|
|

Oh and let's not forget the Chris Cunningham prints that came with the warp vision DVD. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
mine came with one of pomme's teeth. |
||||||||
|
|

i got it yesterday, the sleeve is really badly creased, and i got no sticker :< |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they must've recognised your name and deliberately creased the sleeve! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this is not a laughing matter |
