dammit i hate school internet filters... but i finally got in this thread.
why it filtered it, you got me...
incunabula is classic style, which i come back to every time. not quite as good as amber is, but still worthy of supreme recognition. methinks maetl is an underrated track, and autriche and 444 are the bomb.

Incunabula is their greatest release. I love all the tracks, with the exception of Lowride, which i just like. Autechre's career seems to have gone in reverse, they started genius and ended up making technically proficient yet cold hearted computer trickery, the IDM equivalent of Joe Satriani. Incunabula has a warm heart, it is a sad, melancholy, human album. I think bits of it peek through in the later work, and that's the only thing that keeps me listening to them. But ideally, i'd like it if they made another Incunabula or an Amber. I never really want to hear another Gantz Graf.

You have that backwards. Incunabula is more computery/in-human compared to the later stuff.

How interesting you should say so. The later albums to me sound like vast, nameless things, machines from a billion years ago going fucky. Incunabula sounds, to me, more human in scale, maybe.

I dont agree... anyway I love all of them... from incunabula to draft.... of course it goes more complex with every release... but incunabula is not warmer than chiastic slide or ep7 for example... which are the most emotive in my opinion
incunabula is sad... so it shows emotions of course... but in chiastic I can even feel passion
anyway for me confield is their true masterpiece
this said, of course I admitt I love incunabula and amber and of course garbage ep

ok but at least its logical - in the begininng u hav less software/hardware etc so u become more create, then as time goes by the software becomes more sophisticated and seems to take over a bit more. read the article with them in aprils sound on sound mag they keep going on about max/msp all the time. and it shows u screenshots etc.

I agree with dog_belch on everything except that Amber sucks, and Lowride is one of the best songs on the CD. Late Autechre is meaningless to me.

I can't believe you disagree with me, why if you had a avatar I'd crudely manipulate it in MSPaint so it looked like you were sucking off a dog, then i'd rattle of two or three topics saying what a tit you were, you impudent cur!
Anyway, I used to like Amber but listening to it today i realised i only really like one track, the one with the long outro that's better than the rest of the track, oh you know the one.

Listening to this now. I'd have to say that even their first album, that many people don't like, grows on you in such a way that you cannot even begin to describe it.
It is some of the most emotional, melancholy, relfective and passionate music that I've ever heard. To me, it's timeless.
Incunabula has stayed with me through my musical journeys over the years, and its an album that I can always come back to, that's always familiar enough but still unpredictable. I'm still hearing things in it now afteer the 100th+ listen.
Brilliant, brilliant album :)
That's my two cents worth.

well put Toejam. Bought this album yesterday funnily enough. Think this may be my favourite album of all time. So moving, the production is fabulous. Listen to it LOUD! Especiall Bike, Doctrine, Windwind and 444.
The structure of the longer tracks (above) is beautiful the way everything builds up and little noises come in, adding to the plot. Lush. A great place to start for any newcomers to Ae.
NOTE: Never judge a book by its cover.

the only ae albums i cannot get into is incunabula and amber, there are many reasons, but most importantly the tracks just dont appeal to me, nothing sounds like autechre, if that makes any sense. most ae tracks have a sound to them that i like, these two albums do not have that, and thus do not sound like ae.

I just woke up today, and Incunabula was sitting in my CD player. I have NO recollection of how it got there,....nor do I recall having any desire to put it on. But this surely means SOMEthing,......so I will put it on full blast once I eat my breakfast and shower.

I love tracks 1-3. The rest are good, but these stand out as being really special imo.
I still don't see why it'd be impossible for them to combine their new production style with the meldic warmth of an older release like this. Well, it's up to them I guess-but that would sound brilliant I imagine.

444 is my Autechre's most played song. It's so wonderfully dense, deep and moving. I simply can't belive they made it at such an early stage...

Unexpected opinions in this thread... Incunabula is my favourite Autechre album and a classic for me. Lowride and Windwind are the best. I wish they would occasionally bring back the funk of this album in their new stuffs
