Autechre is the best band ever. Prove me wrong.
Post your fav album.
Hard to name just one, but I think this one is the best.
>>>52927842
look here OP
also my favorite is Oversteps
>>52929995
was listening to that today during my run. shit is so fucking cash. I also love Exai. I feel like music like Autechre is basically the jazz music of our era.

What do you mean by this?

Autechre my second favourite band ever, tied w/ Depeche Mode and second only to Coil. Here's my favourite of their work:

what a coincidence autechre is my favorite band too
fav would be either untilted or exai
>>52930074
this assertion doesn't make sense to me either tbh
I have all their albums downloaded, but I've never heard them. Where should I start if I'm more interested in their experimental side, rather than their ambient techno stuff? Confield?
>>52930545
chiastic
>>52930384
>1. Coil
>2. Autechre
fucking are you myself
>>52930545
Exai, Confield or Untilted. Whatever you take, it will be mindblowing.
>>52930545
quaristice is my rec. it has the most diverse range of styles of all of their albums. most of it is improvised jam session stuff though.
>>52930624
that depends, is your favourite Coil album Black Antlers?
>>52930074
nah, i disagree. I think that their music is impossible to compare to anything else. they are obviously taking a lot of inspirations from rave music, modern classical and in fact dubstep / trap.
If you ever got a chance to see Autechre live - do it whatever it takes. I saw them in Cracow last year (there are some bootlegs) and it was easily the best concert of my entire life.
Also, if you are into making electronic music, there is no way you don't even respect Autechre stuff.
>>52930799
it shares a place with love's secret domain but yeah
>>52931070
I've listened to that Krakow bootleg like 10 times, you lucky son of a bitch
>>52931070
they haven't hit seattle since like 2009 or 2010, and there wasn't an exai tour, so i don't know when it'll ever happen
i want to meet em so bad, though
>>52930850
yeah eclecticism is definitely one of the things that makes autechre so remarkable and unprecedented. rale has what's basically a brostep drop in it, and 90101-5l-l has some serious wobbles too. it's crazy how they take influence from even the most unpretentious, mundane styles of music. it's telling that they included a tech death song on one of their dj mixes, too
>>52929949
>band
i just downloaded all their stuff last night. these guys are fucking brilliant. seriously, how the fuck do you come up with this stuff?
>>52931525
>I just purchased all their albums legally last night
ftfy
>>52931586
yeah, my hand slipped on the keyboard
1. Draft 7.30
2. LP5
3. Confield
>>52931525
once you start getting into, like, max_msp or supercollider or one of the other "make sounds from the ground up with programming' things that are popular you can kind of see how a lot of the structures and techniques autechre use are made. you can start to break down some of their tracks like "oh, so they took this kind of sample and they did this thing to it or they chopped it in this way and this is what they're changing as the track goes on" and it makes a lot more sense than the idea that someone did it all in, like, pro tools or fruity loops or something (and anyone who likes autechre and knows anything about programming should definitely try learning that at least a little bit)
but once you know that it's even more mindblowing to think that they're good enough at what they do to just casually fire off all these ideas and manipulate them so well. it's so fucking hard
>>52930545
Confield is the only right answer to start with.
>>52932941
yeah, they translate such complicated soundscapes straight from their head into a DAW, it's impressive. and their beat programming is just unreal, even with generative elements it's mindboggling to think of some of the syncopations they use. fucking augmatic disport...
Autechre is my favorite as well, I literally own all their albums and eps on cd. Well, with the exception of lp5, which is out of print ;_;
Any recommendations of what artists in the idm game are worth checking out? I already own all the aphex twin albums as well and want to get more into squarepusher but most of his best albums are currently sold out on amazon. tldr who is good in the idm game that I should check out?
