...they make music by committee, and the votes in recent years have been for more experimental stuff...how can you go from achingly beautiful music to clanky, relatively soulless noise...?
(I mean, fair enough if they never had a tune in them...but listen again to stuff like Cichli and Clipper and compare it to more recent stuff) :-(

I sure hope so...can't hear it till June though :-(
(Seriously, I can just imagine a committee sitting round passing "experimental motions" and so on)

Let me guess. I get three
LP5 Amber Tri Repete
(I don't really like their old stuff. I like the clunky stuff, when it has nice sounding noises... beautifull music + neat, edgy sound design is what I like the most)

Tri Repetae, of course, it's the best Ae album and anyone who doesn't recognise this should be publicly tarred and feathered...
Amber, yup indeed...
Third CD was in fact Chiastic Slide, I brought Incunabula on tape...

I just find tri repete to be a bit boring.
EP7 is still my favorite ae. A close second would be cichle suite, then Draft 7.30 then Chiastic Slide.

:-) People who use the term "sucks" should be reviled as Yank-influenced, if not actually Yanks ;-)
I don't actively dislike Draft, I'm just lucky enough to be able to comfortably think of 250-odd albums that are better :-)

Tri Repetae...is...boring??? Well they say it takes all kinds!
What are your thoughts on Incunabula and Amber....?
And if Cichli isn't the best Autechre track, what is? Clipper? Dael? Cipater?

i realized that i haven't listened to their music for a BIG while and I don't want to.
except for maybe hafler trio collab and some two schematic related remixes i found long time ago via KaZaA and do not have them now so i can't listen to them.

i am glad i didnt make this thread, because otherwise many poisonous tomatoes would have been thrown at me.
I like older Ae for the atmospheres+funkyness (well, funky in a weird way) and new albums for the sound design and beat fuckery. My favorite album is Chiastic Slide coz it combines the two best imo.

I think I love every one of ae's works that I've heard...
You'll say I'm slow though, because I only got Draft 7.30 last week(!) I never got around to it before, for one reason or another. What with Untilted coming up, thought it was time ;)
I'm still digesting it, but it seems pretty nice. You can't deny the fact that they are very talented musicians.

I reckon you can force yourself to like anything. That isn't a diss to anyone, it's just something I reckon is true (once, on a long boat ride I was fucking bored that I began to listen to the crazy engine noises, and eventually I actually enjoyed the racket. No, it's true.)

merg off Draft 7.30 is fucking excellent. Anyone who thinks otherwise needs there fucking ears cleaned out with a blunt toothpick. Maybe if people around here listened to the stuff on decent stereo's off the actual cd they'd know what they are talking about but most people listen to mp3's on there shitty PC speakers.
ps: I know this doesn't apply to everyone, but you know what I mean
