Autechre ‎– Tri Repetae

Only 1 left in stock

$30.00

“Starting with the snarling, slow machine-funk of “Dael,” Tri Repetae fully confirms Autechre’s evolution into electronic noise kings. If not as immediately experimental as the fractured work by the likes of Merzbow, Tri Repetae expertly harnesses the need for a beat to perfectly balance out the resolutely fierce, crunching samples and busy arrangements, turning from being inspired by Aphex Twin to being equally inspiring in itself. “Rotar” does a particularly fine job on this front, with high-pitched sounds against low, distorted bass blasts — and this only forms part of the percussion arrangement. The basic combination of soft melody and harsh beats are here as well, coming fully to the fore and resulting in such fine songs as the synth-string/organ wheeze laden “Leterel” and the quirky, sweet “Gnit.” Nearly every track has a particular edge or element to it, making it eminently listenable and distinct. “Stud,” for all of its macho connotations, actually takes a gentler path than most of the album’s tunes, with a flowing synth wash at the center of a stripped-down but sharp digital-drum punch; by the end of the song, the synth loops float freely in an uneasy, ambient wave. With the drowsy pulse of “Overand” and the echoing beats of “Radio” (perhaps not so ironically, the most straightforward of the album’s songs) to close things out, Tri Repetae stands as a varied, accomplished album, clear evidence of Autechre’s unique genius around sound.” – allmusic.com
