Perhaps this is a very bizarre question, but since most of Autechre's track- titles seem to be picked from out of the air and with no distinct etymology, why is the cichlisuite so "fish" heavy? Cichli is a family of fish, and krib and tilapia are common names for a specific specie and genus of cichlids, respectively. Yeesland is, I believe a locale in Africa where many beautiful cichlids can be found. Perhaps the most pressing question is why in the hell do I know all this and why should I (or any of you, for that matter) care? Anyway, I figured its the ultimate trainspotter question, so if anybody has an answer regarding Ae's seeming piscesobsession I'd love to know. Thanks, James np: uhh ... cichlisuite

I long figured that Sean and Rob had made a random name generator or something, at least some of the tracknames should make you think so. On the other hand, what could the Envane tracks signify? 902 Quarter, Goz Quarter, Latent (?) Quarter, Laughing Quarter etc. It doesn't all HAVE to mean anything, at least they're better tracknames than "I love you soo much", "Let's eat breakfast, Manny" etc -- christian s. larsen aka beacon/sublevel3 --------- visit our ambient den http://www.sublevel3.org ----

In the Volume8 interview, and in other places, they've said that the track names are mostly "in jokes", that noone but they would understand. I think they just have a _need_ to be cryptic. Che
