i'm so terribly disappointed with this album.
the "remix" bonus cd sounds just the same as the original.
should've kept my money.

@leisuremuffin...:
Thanks for listening to my music. But your analysis is partly wrong. I listen to autechre for about three month, the tracks you heard are older. And i don't even like autechre very much. So...you're wrong.
With the BOC thing you're closer, but me, myself and i like what we do...so...

But thanks again for taking your time...

there's a nice interview with them in the Sound Control Reverb magazine.

but you all hate SC so will probably never see it.

I didn't say i didn't like it.

but the first track's one finger melody with the pads is straight up ripped from ae. i mean, straight up. so, uh, i'm not wrong. maybe you just don't realise.

and that's the thing. If cats are wondering why ae changed up their style, it's because there's a ton of people out there apeing their early sound. And it's also probably boring to keep doing the same thing.... you could draw a parallel to John Coltrane's career and it would make a lot of sense....

What a great interview - struck a (glitched, distorted) bell with me in a couple of places when getting all philosophical. Ta!

I had not heard of Xanopticon before, and to be honest, I didn't like it too much. Some cool sounds, just not my cup of tea really.

They're pretty mechanical sounding, but I like that sort of thing, it's not his best track or anything, but it's definitely well over the edge musically, unlike Autechre, who I like, I just don't really find them challenging. Not that that's bad, it's just funny to me that so many (musicians even?) find Autechre too challenging to their ideas of what music is when they don't sit near the edge at all! in fact almost all their stuff is easily understood by most non musicians.

IDM isn't usually half as challenging as Breakcore, Power Noise, or Power Electronics for instance.

Go figure? More challenging artists...

I stopped listening to AE after Chiastic Slide/Envane. IMO, their last solid work was TR - and this is coming from someone who started listening to them around '95.

Since then it's mostly been machines thrown on random through bitcrushers and recorded as "tracks."

Cmon, Incunabula is _15 years old_ and still has loads more soul:

Call me old-school all you want, but somewhere along the lines Autechre pulled an RDJ and forgot what a chord is.

Funny - I went out to buy this and couldn't find it on the shelves - came home with some Mingus, some Monk and some Parker tho.

Ended up grabbing Quaristice at iTunes and have to say I'm diggin it a lot.
