artist : autechre title : cichlisuite (mechanically reclaimed by autechre) label : warp records catalouge : wap96cd summary : beautiful, disjointed, purely autechre what can i say. i am a fool for autechre. i love the way they intersperse lush, enwraping melodies with beats i can only describe as cruel. i love the feeling of controlled chaos they harness. i love the undertones that permeate each and every track i have ever heard of theirs. i love the clarity and the complexity, the dirtyness and the precision. i think you probably get the idea. cichlisuite is no exception. as with every autechre release i have ever listened to, it took me some time to fall in love with it. the subtleties do not emerge for a few listenings, and even then one really needs to center their attention on it to do it justice. autechre have always more than held up to repeated listenings, they mature and grow, favourite passages develop into deeper pathways, apparenty arythmic sections manifest their inherent order. all the trademark autechre elements are there, beats within beats, washes upon washes, more and more with every listen. mmmn. autechre. - -- the light that burns twice as bright burns half as long xxxxxxxx@xxxxxxx.xx.xx.xx http://www.extortion.com
