    From beginning to end, just the sort of album to blow away any doubts that the nonbelievers would have about autechre. Alot of people seem keen on bringing up Confield as comparison to anything that ae have done, when really Confield is only comparable to itself. Everything is ALWAYS new. Even when old ideas are reinterpreted, they can only come out more twisted than the original concept. This album just kicks an insane amount of ass without an apology.… Expand

    As good as anything else they've done. It sounds good, its exciting, its funny, its sad. Music!

    This album proves that its impossible to please everyone. I like it, but I'm not really concerned with Autechre's creative "forward" momentum. Perhaps this is Autechre's neo-classicist album. Ah whatever, just listen to the music and leave the commentary to the critics.

    Stunning. Autechre back to form at last and not without rewriting the electronica rulebook as well. The perfect compromise between Confield and Tri Repetae...

    Most is all too predictable and finds Autechre stuck in an experimental rut. [May 2005, p.121]

    Unlike their many imitators, Autechre's music refuses to relax, ensuring them a longer radioactive half-life. [May 2005, p.106]

    While in recent years the work of Autechre has widened to include bursts of melody alongside their cut-and-paste sonic structures, it’s here on 'Untilted' that Booth and Brown get the mixture right.
