Untilted is the eighth studio album by Autechre released on Warp Records. It was originally released on April 18th, 2005.

Tracks

LCC

Ipacial Section

  • The spring reverb on the track (example being around 4:25) is one from a Analogus Systems Eurorack module. [2] Likely the RS-310, but someone more knowledgable than me confirm whether it's that or the RS-650.

Pro Radii

Augmatic Disport

Iera

  • In a Pitchfork interview, they mentioned that "Iera" was "grid programmed, all onscreen, just nudging MIDI events around" [4]

Fermium

  • Fermium is the 100th element on the periodic table, often abbreviated to Fm. [5]

The Trees

  • Rob answered a question regarding the origin of the noises at the end of "The Trees" by responding with "those noises are made from The Trees."[6]

Sublimit

  • The track samples Sparky Dee and the Playgirl's "The Battle" [7]
  • In a Pitchfork interview, they clarified that "Sublimit" was just "16-grid style" drum sequencing. [8]
  • At almost 16 minutes in length, “Sublimit” was the longest song Autechre had released at that point. “Drane2”, off LP5, technically surpassed it at over 21 minutes long, but only 9 minutes of the runtime is the actual song. “Sublimit” was eventually beaten by “Perlence subrange 6-36”, off Quaristice.Quadrange.ep.ae, which is nearly an hour long.

Zurich 2001

Trivia

  • In a Pitchfork interview, they mentioned that "there's no generative work or fader based MIDI stuff" on Untilted.[9]
  • The album’s title could be a reference to LP5, by being a play on words of “Untitled”.
  • Excluding the bonus track on the Japanese CD release, Untilted has the shortest tracklist of any Autechre album, at only eight songs.
  • There are 10 unused designs for Untilted, which can be found on an archive of Alex Rutterford's website.
  • Most song lyric database websites have incorrect lyrics for " Augmatic Disport".

Whoh oh, oh This disport is so augmatic

(AUGMATIC) It is like a kind of magic

(MAGIC) And baby when you dance

I can see a bowl of crisps in your eyes (EYES)
