Don't say that, you'll scare people off! ;) Seriously, I think Envane is the last Autechre record before they lost the plot (on the whole). I enjoy bits and pieces of LP5 and EP7, even to the point of loving a couple of tracks, but they just don't hold up as a whole the way Envane does. Envane is great. One of my favorite parts is the first track, where they cut up Kool Keith saying "Jam like Autechre". On a sidenote, is that one of the only explicit hip-hop:IDM connections (where MCs actually drop names)? I know on Common's new record he says something about "Tricky like that dude who does drum-n-bass" (though we know Tricky doesn't really do d-n-b).
