Autechre's track titles aren't nonsense. Looking at them purely aesthetically and in terms of their pronunciation (instead of their literal meaning like people are obsessed with doing) they're so accurately representative of the track's tone, mood and sound that I can't imagine them being given any other name that might fit them so well. It makes me think that from Chiastic Slide onwards (when they started to move away from generic titles like Dael, Slip, and Glitch and shit like that anyone would feel befits the music they've created) they've been so involved in the creation of their music they just understand it so well and the perfect titles just happen without being given much thought. I know they say they'd rather release the music directly without anything that might influence your perception of it, but for me, it all adds up.

I love the titles and artwork because as this post shows I read more into it than is probably meant by them. The title Xylin Room fuels my imagination already. Coupled with the music..wow. i still find it difficult, like most of Draft 7.30, but when it begins proper it's still the freshest sound in the world. Reniform Puls, V-Proc, Iera, Pro Radii, The Trees, 777. There's a real pop sensibility to the variation and the fun they have with them. 777; repetitive and constant like the track. Iera, just..alien. For so long I thought it was Lera. Iera is even satisfying to say. I like that they can name tracks whatever they like and are effectively forcing you to say certain words and phrases you've never said before. The Trees; THE. Like, here it is. That's how it builds up to it. Here's now, The Trees. IO; I dunno, it just works. I guess Vose In is more obvious, because it has that pulsating beginning. And melve is malevolent, right? Drane; draining. Rae is like; barely there, ethereal. Soft sounding, but the ae together always looks strong. Arch Carrier sounds cheesy and so does the track. IV VV IV VV VIII constantly beats you down. Pro Radii is the funnest coolest title. Just the repetition of the P and R, and the two i's. It conjures up all sorts, like sportswear, a bit like the Untilted artwork does with its colours and two stripes, one white, one yellow. And the track itself has crowd noise samples. P.:NTIL sums up the track. Surripere is so strong and absolute, like the track. Mysterious and enigmatic..the driving rhythm. It should be in italics.

Holy shit nice post man! I saw the /thehauntingsoul at the end and for some reason started thinking that was an old post of mine. By the time I got about halfway through I realized I hadn't written this though. Good shit man.

Okay sir I've warned you enough, your attitude is upsetting the locals I'm afraid you're going to have to leave.

We don't take kindly to your kind around here

as much as i like Quaristice, i think that Lumpenprol's suggestion would be a hilarious name

Lumpenprol is a scoundrel and a cad, I won't have you listening to him again.

You're all ignoring the obvious. It will be called Decibels. Duh.

Sorry.

true, true. but nor did it appear to ever have been tilted or have any evidence a having had to be brought plumb from some degree of tilt.

Using this number idea, I think they should call it 'Tentron - Lord of Ten'

Failing that, 'Satan-Worshipping Motherfuckers'
