i'm going to get me some autechre, i havent heared a single track from them but there's alot of talk about it (esp. now draft 7.30 is gonna be released) if i wanted to get into them, what would be the best album to get first? |
||||||||
|

|
|
lp5 or tri repetae, then work your way into confield |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
try the track 'rae'. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Don't bother! :P |

People seem to fall into two categories: the ones who prefer the old albums and the ones who prefer the new stuff. There is a world of difference between say Amber and Confield. I'd start with Incunabula. It's their old setup with the analog synths. Amber and Tri Repetae sound a little different, because they started messing around with a proper sampler (very successfully too). After Tri begins the new era imo. -P |

For me it was Chiastic Slide. Nneedless to say it worked, but I think tri repetae or lp5 would be just as good. Also consider the EP:s Anvil Vapre, Envane and Cichlisuite. Confield is a bit too hard for a first album, and the early albums Incunabula and Amber are excellent but quite different from ae:s newer work. |

well ill just dl lp5 and see if i like it from what ive read there isnt really a "best autechre", its all different so ill see what happens, thanks y'all |

one way: chronologycal order, so you start with incunabula, amber, trirepate... then chiastic, lp5 ep7 and finally confield another way: starting right in the middle, the album that has something from the past and shows something about the future: tri repeate another way: you are a crazy bastard and there is nothing too difficult for you, so you go for confield and then you get hooked yp by ae and do all the way down another way: knowing them through the EPs. so you get basscadet and anti ep then you go with garbage and peel session 1 you start dreaming with anvil vapre and envane finally falll in love with cichlisuite and prepared for ep7, peel2 and gantz graf choose your way, whichever... you cant go wrong |

or you listen to some random tracks and like it or dont. |

i like incunabula most. confield is cool too after you REALLY get into it, but chiastic slide didn't do the trick for me. the peel sessions (especially 2) give an easy approach to "newer" ae IMO. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
amber is great imo its old but it is the begining of the future |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
me too. i like the old sound alot. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm not a big æ fan but i like amber the most. silverslide is great track, download that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
have you heard draft7.30 yet? a fucking great album there. i don't know why but for some reason some of it reminds me of real old-skool autechre ca. amber/garbage. it's got the complexity of confield but somehow manages to be a lot more accessible, for me at least. highly recommended. |
||||||||

he's a british comedic genius. He's done a lot of tv and radio shows over the years, including 'Brass Eye', a fake documentary series on TV and the 'Blue Jam' dark-as-hell sketch series on radio. Warp has released a 'Blue Jam' compilation on CD and is now releasing CM:s new short film "My Wrongs #8245-#8249 & 117" on DVD. Also check out |

|
you cant go wrong with incunabula, i promise you will be hooked |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
maybe we could suggest mixes or something... like a cd to make and carry around |
||||||||

JAroen: If you really want to buy an ae release to get into their music you'd best stick to the chronological order like nacmat said. The first two albums are quite accesible, Tri repetae get more experimental and the newer the albums get, the more experimental i.e. harder to get into they get. If you are familiar with abstract and experimental music, then I see no reason not to choose whatever album you want to buy :) |

It's strange... There really is NO correct way to get into them...if an album or EP of theirs sinks in, usually most if not all of Autechre's work becomes enjoyable. I've known only a few other artists (Aphex for one) whose body of work does this to a listener. Amazing! :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's tru that there's no correct way to get into them. the only thing you got to keep in mind is that, if you dont like a particular release after many listens, dont give up, try another, because their sound has drastically changed since '93. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
amber is the best they've done... get that! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
just get these tracks in this order clipper leteral eutow silverside basscadet Eggshell rae under BOAC |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
why not go to the record shop and listen to all of them and then decide which one to get.. i did that when i wanted to get into them, except i only listened to lp5 and from only hearing ~30 seconds of the first 3 tracks i bought it right away.. |
