Amber is the second studio album by Autechre released on Warp Records. It was originally released on November 7th, 1994, then later repressed on vinyl in 2016, alongside Incunabula, and Tri Repetae.
Sean Booth has later recounted in interviews that Amber was “genuinely the first album” they released on Warp Records, and that their previous, Incunabula, was “more of a compilation of old material”.
