NicholasPJun 9, 2003Certainly nothing as special as say, LP5, and Confield. Of course, since Autechre have such a consistently good back catalogue, a few mishaps here and there are excusable. It's a confused, drawn out and somewhat shapeless record with a few moments of strength, such as the last track.

AndrewD.Mar 10, 2008Listening to this album felt as if I was being strangled by a robot, the only matter in which I could breath being digital binary, and I just continued to drown in robotic and metallic bliss. Draft 7.30 is probably one of the most experimental albums ever made in the history of music.

MorganSep 19, 2008Nothing special on first listen. However, after getting better acquainted, this has grown to be one of my favourite albums. Have been listening to it about once a week for nearly four years and still haven't tired of it's intricacies. Patience required, but highly recommended.

D.TalbotNov 12, 2007Not as hard as Confield, but still as intense and branching as you'd expect from Booth and Brown.

Jan 28, 2013I heard this album quickly and with no concentration whatsoever, so i was disappointed, i thought this was Autechre's weakest album, i was upset and frustrated, i gave the album 10 more listenings, conclusion: Its one of Autechre's best albums.

UncutBy the time we reach "Surripere" we could be listening to a toughened-up Aphex Twin, poignant harmonies battling against oblique but splintering beats. [May 2003, p.92]

An unfortunate combination of familiar methods, beats and timbres won't overshadow the ultimately uninspiring music.

UrbDraft's second half will hold more sway over those pining for the minor-key melodiousness of works through Tri Repetae++. [Jun 2003, p.93]
