    I’ve always liked Fol3, but I didn’t get it for years until I heard it while I was high. It’s not just a bunch of sound effects. Listen closer. There’s a tone way in the back. Sort of a bass tone slowly changing notes until it goes into its percussive breakdown. I think it’s one of Autechre’s most interesting tracks, up there with a whole lot more stunning work by them.

    When I first listened to it I was reading about the solar system at the same time and there are some tracks that really fit with the mind blowing mystery of the big gas giants. At least to my mind.

    Throughout their discography they have explored different sounds. The precise calculatied nature of their their previous Untilted album, the alien world of Draft 7.30, the futuristic confield and the industrial sounds from work such as Tri Repetae, out of all of them, Quarististice is still the album that is the weirdest of them all that can even perplex the fanbase of the duo. It was a strange turn and a strange direction even for them. But it is also their most fun record with a relaxed and casual atmosphere.

    Best of their work. As a long-time ae fan. IO, Perlence are some of the most ruthless songs created by man, paralel suns is such a display piece of sound engineering, chenc9-x (the versions edition) is badass, I think the album really flows well even though every song is so out there. Regrettably the last couple songs on here aren't that essential to me but overall, great album.

    Genuinely one of my favorites, even coming from someone far more conditioned to their more difficult works. This one gives me such an unjustified emotional reaction that I can't quite place. It's very raw, amateurish, and the most lighthearted thing they have released. The use of EQ and Pan modulation gives the the mix fascinating depth, which is why I enjoy even the least structured tracks like Fol3 and Steels, since the sound design is so compelling. For me. I'd give it a 9.4/10 based on enjoyment alone, even if it is not the most technically complex or meticulously crafted album, but that is why it's so charming.

    I can't take Fol3 seriously because I am pretty sure there is the Intro of the keyboard cat song in it if you listen to it closely. Those reversed claps at the start.
    I bet they laughed their asses off. Chronologically it would make sense, because the keyboard cat song came out in 2007 and the album 2008 hahahaha

    This is a weird one for Erhcetua. It seems to be simultaneously really out there and really accessible. I don't know how they pulled that off. It is my most listened album by them simply because I spent so long trying to crack its code. I would listen to it mixed in with tracks from the surrounding releases: Versions, Digital Exclusive, and Quaristice.Quadrange.ep.ae. Below is my favorite version of Quaristice.
    Quaristice Descent:
    01. The PlclCpC (Versions)
    02. Phylopn (Versions)
    03. chenc9-x (Versions)
    04. paralel Suns (Quaristice)
    05. Perlence losid 2 (Quadrange)
    06. Simmm (Quaristice)
    07. Steels (Quaristice)
    08. Fol3 (Quaristice)
    09. fol4 (Versions)
    10. WNSN (Quaristice)
    11. notwotwo (Quadrange)
    12. Outh9X (Quaristice)

    Quaristice is my least favourite Autechre album and the only one that has given me a feeling of disappointment. It certainly didn't help this one come after Untilted. I haven't listened to this album much. Who knows, maybe I connect with it better someday?
