my is nuane, the last track.. although i love this albumn and every song on it this is my least favorite for the following reasons:
1. When the albumn should climax with an amazing track, it's kind of a let down.
2. That droneing synth sound gets on my nerves 3. It's the most uncharistaristic song of the rest of the albumn. that might be cool, but on chiastic slide it feels out of place.
that said it's still a good track and the second half of it's pretty good.
anyone else?

i disagree, i think it's the perfect album ender for chiastic slide imo. just like cipater is the perfect opener.
the only track i still dont like that much is hub. the rest is perfect.

I love Hub. It's pretty disturbing sounding, and the cello sound gets me.

this thread was kind of a dumb idea... i love naune .. LOVE IT.... it's just my least favorite on one of my favorite albumns of all time
i knew that alot of people would pick hub as there least favorite....it is a strange track...but it grows on you
track 2 is the key to why the albumn is so great...theres something about putting the strangest track so soon on the albumn seqeuncing that makes it so powerful

Nuane? You're a crazy-man! I love the mutant hip hop beat that starts it out... although, the synth work and melodies leaves a little something to be desired. Can't beat those beats though.
Hub is horrifying...
I can't think of one track on there that doens't fulfill a role. That album is a machine, each track is a gear, it wouldn't work if one of them was missing. Fu fu fu.

the 3rd track is amazing. Especially the distant piano. And I love recury. Chiastic Slide is my favourite Autechre release. When they were at their peak melodically.

The two that I don't really like as much as the rest are cichli and calbruc.
I think for cichli it's just a matter of the melody, it's just kind of wanky.
And for calbruc same thing. It's probably just a personal taste kind of thing; mostly just the tone and attitude those songs bring.
Nuane is the perfect closing song! It has the crazy, heaviest beats of the album for the first half, then it decays and falls apart into nothing for the end.
It's great :)
Again, just personal preference I guess.

jesus, god, holy shit, motherfuck. chiastic slide is the most distant yet bone-chilling release by ae. i love this album. cipater is masterpiece. rettic ac is the mossst beautiful novelty item. tewe is boldly going where no cog has gone before. cichli is , well sickly sweet, i love it. hub is prolly the least favorite for me, followed by calbruc. other than that, the whole album flows beautifully, and i dig it. peak for ae. out.
p.s. like ae took tri-repetae and shoved it through a meat grinder.sausage linker, and called it genius.

yeah, qrter, you're right, and when that 'crow' thing ....brommhuhuhhoohoo!?!?! comes in, and reflects of the backdrop bass riff, it sends extra doses of dopamine around my cerebra and encircles my spinal cavities, instantly topping off the most joyful of ae listening experiences, know what i mean>

ok... for the record i'd like to say i was smoking crack early ...... nuane is amazing sick... some of the best beats on the albumn... probably the 4th or so best song on the album.... it's just that jet sound always annoyed me....
can't say what the least favorite is then... every listen brings something new...

Hub needs to be so long and repetitious to make the random 'growl' at 4:23 sound even more out of place and freightening.
i love it.

yah hub was my least favourite too for a long while but somehow i like it now :O the ending sequence is great.
nuane's ending btw is similar to draft 7.30's ending, is it not? draft really does sound like an amalgamation of some of their previous records, unlike chiastic slide, which was and is unprecedented.
like someone said, it sounds as if it's going to be released somewhere next year :)

I agree about Cichli... it's the weak link of the album for me... not a bad song, but it keeps it from being PERFECT. It sounds too crunchy and dirty, but not in the cool machine-ish way that the rest of the album does. And it's too jolly.

pule is the weakest track. like yulquen on amber but worst. anyway i think the best is recury.when that sound come in i think is one of the best moments in ae discography.
it's music from another planet nobody is like autechre.

I love Chiastic Slide...it's what has (recently) just got me into liking Autechre...
Least favourite? Not Hub, you fools, Hub is awesome. But I'm a weirdo -- I think that Recury is the weakest. You must all think I'm insane, but it does go on for way too long and that classhhh sound irritates me to no end.
Oh yeah, Just bought Tri Repetae yesterday. That's great, too. :-)

nice pussy toejam.
i have just litened thru it again..
cant decide.. it depends on how and when you listen to this album.
tou have to be in the mood for some noise to start with.. also its gotta be played loud as fuck.. if its loud enuff you can walk into different rooms and hear different things..
it takes the high end out and you can hear alot more of the bass rythms.
anyway.. cant say what i dont like about this album.. i cant tell you what the neibours think either.. lol.. they havent screamed out "turn that shit off" so they must be dig'n it too..
ok im up to the last bit of the last song.. - - sounds like a rattling oil heater.. i have also heard them use that drip drip noise from when you start up an oil heater..

A friend of mine told me that this song almost made him cry..
Personally I disagree; the song easily would fit in as a soundtrack for a film about neglected and abandoned machines..
Well, maybe that's quite heart-breaking anyway..
