the same with "Brothomstates: Qtio". most of the titles sound like Ae + a
"snifter of glitch" + two tracks sound like Plaid + a "snifter of glitch".

i don't think the originality is a MUST. if so most of the artist wouldn't
show their art anymore because nearly everything is the variation of well
known only or the combination of two well known. i listened to "the rip-off
artist: the kids are alright" yesterday, this album is great, i can highly
recommend it, but i wasn't able to enjoy it because 70% of it sounds like
ATOM.

i second this, but how about Ae? are they original or are they only the
first who started "wanking around" with the equipment that many others used
after them. is the originality to be the first?
i ask this because it's evidently not very difficult to imitate them if you
use the same equipment as they do.
enjoy, but safely =:
