Just bought confield for £6 off this nutcase business man. First listen at present- I'm on track 2 'cfern' It sounds cool. Its completely different, LP5 is a little bit easier to follow than this one at present. None of my tunes are anything quite like this, which is always good. 'Pen expers' just started. Bit easier to follow, bit more late aphexy. Still thinking LP5 is better but its too early to make judgement. ooh, that was phat. this track is really fucking good. I am going to sit in the dark for a while and close my laptop. Ta ta :) |

check out their gescom guise as well-SKAM have reissued the key nell 12 on cd-and theirs some hidden gems on the skampler cd (see warpmart). my top five.. keynell-ae mix (ltd 12 on warp) conform-fuck what people say about being inaccessable all you near is a pair of ears. flutter-off anti ep, preprogrammed beats that dont repeat, with a lush fade out that beats having dinner with jesus amber-sounds a little dated now but still class-their are genes in 'teartear' that ruminate throughout the rest of their catalogue chiastic slide-fucked up crazy industro electro envane-hip hop funk with dr octagon on the decks scratchin like a bear. by the by all of their eps on cd are value for money-45-50mins of genius for a fiver depending on where you shop.. |

It's difficult to say my favs 5 best albums but I can't try... . Selected Ambient Works (85-92) - Aphex Twin . Surfing on sine waves - Polygon Window . drukqs - Aphex Twin . Double Figure - Plaid . Dead Cities - Future Sound of London * Hangable Autobulb EP2 - AFX (it's not an album by I love it) In these days I'm enjoying MUSIC HAS RIGHT TO CHILDREN by BoC, too. Now help me to choose th Autechre's album, right for me. btw: I'm seeing who everybody like a different Autechre's cd, here. WooÆ’er |

Incunabula is good... nice and melodic... sounds a bit dated in a couple places, but overall it's excellent... I don't know much about Autechre, but I've listened to some of Amber and Tri Repetae, and LP5, and I think I Amber the best out of those... I like the more melodic stuff myself... |

while I prefer EP7 or LP5 ish era (chichli suite and envane) - I have gotten "in" to each and every Ae release I own. So why not start at the start and work your way up - starting with Incunabula (also highly recommended is the Basscadet remixes - some very nice tunes). Advice: Incunabula/Amber While I highly recommend Tri++ (US edidtion?/special with Anvil Vapre and Garbage ep's as bonus cD's WELL worth it) or pretty much anything else mentioned - but perhaps start with the early stuff??? |

Incunabula - Most accessible, melodic, and repetitive of all their albums. I dont mean that in a bad way, i love it! Not very representative of what I consider their 'real' style. Amber - Their darkest and most atmopheric album, not as melodic as some of these people might make you believe. NOT a good starting point. Tri Repetae ++ - Considered by many to be their best album, and also the album that is their definitive sound. I personally disagree, but I suppose for most people this is the place to start. Good middle ground between earlier works and more complex later works. Very rythmic and structured. LP5 - Extremely complex beats put over generally sparse melodies, this is one of my favorites. Some of the songs on here remind me of Drukqs sort of, just not quite as random sounding. More mathematical and precise. EP7 - Very little melody, very much like LP5, only with less emphasis on melody. The album is mostly beats, very odd ones as well, very inaccessible and alien. Confield - Their least accessible, and at the same time my favorite. Took me a long time to appreciate it, but I love it oh so much now. I prefer it over Drukqs even. It is very cold, mechanical, alien, mathematical. I seriously find it hard to imagine actual humans sitting creating this music, it is truely stunning. Careful however, this release could turn you off big time. |

LeMon: Great work, your description is really clear and helpful, I recorded it. Anyway, I see who there's a little bit of confusion about Autechre's work, there are many different opinions here and I'm still confused... Probably I'll buy Amber (I know Chrispy's taste...), Incunabula or Tri Repetae++... but first I'll try to download some song... I need to understand better. WooÆ’er |

Nope, i dont consider their music drill n bass. It is much more hard to explain...keep in mind that their style varies wildly through their career, so not liking one cd does not mean u will dislike them all. Oh, and I do consider Amber inaccessible, because IMO it is much more dense then alot of their music, less catchy, more ambient and maybe evn intellectual than their earlier albums. Piezo off that album is one of their top 5 songs, without a doubt. Oh, and I find Envane overrated. I'd take the ep Garbage anyday. Chiastic Slide is another album of theirs, I didnt mention it because i have not listened to the entire thing. It sounds alot like Tri Repetae from what i have heard, very rhythmic and maybe alittle more experimental, leaning towards their extreme stages later on. |

It's official... Autechre has a new wooÆ’er-fan!!! Yesterday I bought AMBER... and people, it's awesome. One of the best cd who I bought this year and it's only my first Autechre's cd... now I can't wait to buy everything from them. The sound is amazing, the melody is incredible, it seems the apocalypse' day! Track1,2,3 and 11 are impressive! I can't stop to listen this album... In the last month I bought Boards of Canada, Plaid, Future Sound Of London, but Autechre seems really superiors. Thanx to everybody who suggested to buy 'AMBER'. WooÆ’er |

Wow, I am surprised you gave it such a positive respone based on first few listens...if you like it THAT much, the other albums will make you ecstatic, for Amber is probably the groups weakest most maligned album. Oh, and you didnt mention track 6? That is without a doubt the best tune on the album. I used to love track 3, Silverside, but I think that melody line is kinda weak, it sounds like its trying to go somewhere, but in escence is goes no where, for it repeats the same short melody over and over, and its not particularily dramatic either. Nice beat though. You'll have to excuse me, im going into one of my rants, I could write pages reviewing each of their albums. Just dont go thinking this is what all their albums sound like, because it is NOT. Since it seems you like the melodies, you should probably get Incunabula next, I personally think it is a better album then Amber. It has a better assortment of melodies, and isnt as much of a downer as Amber can tend to be...not saying there is anything wrong with that. Either Incunabula, or, if you live in the US, buy Tri Repeate+++, for a taste of a slightly different, morebeat orientated Autechre. Work your way up the big leagues! Glad you like the album buddy, and just keep in mind, Amber came out before I Care Because You Do...which sounds better? I personally prefer Autechre over Aphex, but lately I've been into cold, mechanical music. peace. |

if you work through autechre's work chronologically (like i did, having missed out when they started) you'll appreciate every album better, imo. i first got incunabula, then a week later i bought amber. if incunabula didn't blow me away, amber sure did. i don't listen to incunabula much anymore, except those really long songs, they're awesome. next i got peel sessions 1, but that's not all that impressive except for drane. tri repetae i think is one of the least melodical albums by autechre (except track 3). in that respect it reminds me of confield and peel sessions 2 (check out track 3 off that ep). ep7 isn't as non melodical as a lot of ppl would like you to think, imo. granted, there's a lot of abstract stuff, but also a coupla tracks (eg 6, 10, 11) which are just plain beautiful. and ep7 also boasts the best first track ever (not the hidden track), imho. btw, envane overrated?? it's not like rolling stone gave it 5 stars, or mtv plays it everyday cause they reckon they're good songs, right? i mean, the only rating it gets is the rating fans give it, and that's highly personal and subjective. many people like it, though, i've noticed. geez i like discussing autechre. don't like the autechre.nu messageboard-software, though :) |
