I just received this album, and for those who asked me if it was better or the same as INCUNABULA, it's no where near as good as any of the Autechre projects to date. I fuckin' love this album. I can't seem to stop cueing up 'eutow', 'c-pach', and 'rsdio'!!!! I just forgot all the other albums I bought this weekend, because these 3 tracks are just ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. 'eutow' grabs you by the throat, and throws you across the room, while 'c-pach' picks at your brain with its percussion. As if that isn't enough, 'rsdio' has an almost "erotic" vibe to it, you'll be thinking twice about staying on this list, because of the scariness & diversity of some IDM albums and artists... One to write home about... Derek Jordan

What he said. Especially love the percussion sounds on this one -- sounds at times like they sampled static from a faulty guitar amplifier and turned it into a percussion instrument. --------------------------------------------------------------------- In an expanding universe, time is on the side of the outcast.

I thought the same thing last night when I "listened"(read carefully) to it. Fuzz/Distortion pedals or something like that. I still think 'eutow' could have been further mutated & turned into a 10 minute masterpiece. I know I wouldn't have stopped there. Tri Repetae would have been a quad-pack!!! Which is why I'm doing my own shit!!! Derek
