Yesterday I dled an Ae song at a friends house and he liked it (it was low ride off Inc.). Anyways, I thought it would be a good idea instead of giving him cds I would give him a song off each cd. Here's a list of songs I think anyone can use to show their friends the beauty of Autechre without over-doing it or scaring them off.
[NOTE: to avoid confusion, only show them songs off LPs. that way they won't shuffle through those and the pile of EPs.]
Incunabula: Low Ride. Its a song with a style everyone is used to and not too many people should argue on it especially if theyre new to Ae.
Amber: Silverside. Another great song with instantly recognizable instruments (strings) and a nice melody. It showcases weird sounds while still being accessible.
Tri Repetae: Rsdio. One of the problems with TR is that most of the tracks are kinda repetitive...something not bad to Ae pros. But for the average person, they might get turned off. Rsdio isn't too repetative and has a nice beat and sound effects.
Chiastic slide: Cipater. The song is interesting in both sounds and composition. Ae beginners shouldn't have a hard time with this one.
LP5: Corc. What do I need to say? Its beautiful melodies should captivate anyone!
EP7: Rpeg. I know this is actually an EP but you can use it as an LP too. Nice melodies and isn't something too scary for newbies.
Confield: Cfern. Nice and jazzy with beats that arn't too repetative.

hmmm, I'd pick either Clipper, Eutow, or C/Pach from Tri Repetae... not that I don't like Rsdio... it's one of my favorites, but I think the others I listed are a bit more "friendly" maybe... :)

Those you listed are indeed good Funkmaster but they'd be too repetative for the average person ... i would think.

I found the best way to introduce someone to Æ is to bring them to a live show.

That's a pretty cool selection of tracks...
I've got a lot of time for the AE record guide over at http://lonelymachines.org/autechre.html ...
His taste in AE kinda agrees with mine but probably not everyone...it's all a bit subjective but regardless, it is a good little guide to their various releases...
