Title: The Culmination
Product review: This album is the apex of Autechre's journey through uncharted musical territory. There isn't a single song on this album that doesn't evolve beyond everything you thought you knew about Autechre, and it finishes with an ending that trails off leaving the listener wondering whether the trip is finished or just beginning. Blending elements of every previous album from 'Incunabula' to 'Confield', 'Untilted' is all about the contradictions of those previous albums and finding the delicate balance inbetween -- fast/slow, intense/relaxed, cold/warm, alien/earthy. For this reason, fans of certain albums who were turned off by others will find that this album ties it all together, giving hindsight into what was previously seemingly abstract and nonsensical. This album is the key to understanding.
