Autechre – Untilted

Untilted is one of those Autechre albums I enjoy every single bit of (others are Confield and Chiastic Slide). Twenty years on, I can still listen to it back-to-back, and it won't be enough.

Arguably among Autechre's most approachable works, which for many of their more ardent fans might count as points against it.

"Don't be that person," I say to myself. "Just enjoy it."

Together with ""Confield", this is the pinnacle of Autechre for me (thus far). Just abstract enough not to bore, and just accessible enough not to be weirded out. It's almost endlessly rewarding, with lots of phantom melodies and easter eggs imbedded in the music.
And "Ipacial Section" is one of my all-time favorite pieces of music. I'm not sure what happened that day in the studio, but in the second half of the track you can hear an actual angel singing amidst the onslaught of relentless beats, gloriously unfazed by the mayhem of collapsing buildings, jumbled telephone lines and possessed TV sets around it, the gently glowing eye of the storm or perhaps the root cause of all the turmoil. Either way, it is really quite amazing.

This is Autechre's best work. It takes a while to grow on you, but when it does, it stays with you. Highly recommended.

This is where it all came together. Autechre's best album. The perfect representation of their body of work in my opinion.

Only album I've ever seen where the 4 flavors of digital releases all have different color covers from each other. The background is silver on the CD, and entry for the version I have has the wrong color cover. Started comparing submitted covers for different CD editions, and the few that got the color right (un-auto-corrected by bad scanner software) have bad moire lines. Finally resorted to looking at the digital versions and each one is a different shade, none of them matching the CD cover.
Can someone please scan the silver front cover to the CD edition? I don't have a scanner or a camera, otherwise I would do it.

One of autechre’s most hard hitting album & most crazy i think. While i didnt think of it much when i first heard it, now i think it is one of the most solid album in autechre’s discography. Seems to be linked from confield to draft to this. Sheer digital madness.

One of my favorite modern pop albums. Most highly recommended

Originally hated it! Now 15(+)yrs later I now see it as a experimental masterpiece. A true architecture in sound, disted music and abstract experimental-ism that doesn't make sense yet oddly starts to make sense as if it rewires your brain on each new listen!
