Autechre - Oversteps
I got the promo at work today. It's damn good. I quit on Ae after Incunabula but this is very atmospheric, ambient at times and not the grating idiotic distortion of their later work. You can tell your copy is real if the tags are properly capitalized. The fakes are all lowercase.

Incunubula? damn. Surely Amber and Tri Repeatae(++) are worthy of attention. But I see your point. I'm mentally scarred by Draft 730. If this is another "lets push all the buttons at once and see what noise comes out" album then I'm really not interested.

You don't like Incunabula? Hmmm...

Didnt say that! I was saying that BLD gave up on Ae too soon. Incunubula is their first album. Amber and Tri Repeatae are the 2nd and 3rd and are pretty decent (Basscadet EP box is also good).

Ah yes I misread. I like those as well but Incunabula is by far my favorite, so I will definately check the new one out.

Re: Autechre - Oversteps
I like this album. And finally they assume their influence of abstract hip hop in a more direct way.

i thought my copy was real if it had a proper cover and i can actually hold it in my hands

not going to jump the wagon here...yet...too many fakes out there and i can't be bothered to check them out. a lot of people on twitter are apparently getting their kicks out of the fake one, too...

Re: Autechre - Oversteps
Yeah, the fake is a bit more beat oriented than the actual album. The more I hear it the more I like it. It's very ambient and relaxing.

Re: Autechre - Oversteps
This sounds really interesting. The last three have had moments I've enjoyed but I've found them really hard work on the whole. If they've turned to a softer pallette then I may be in luck!
