Trivia

  • At just over 2 hours, Exai was by far the longest Autechre album upon release. It was quickly beaten by their next album, elseq 1-5, which was more than double the length of Exai.
  • The album artwork is a heavily stylized/pixelated rendering of the text “Exai”.
  • The album name itself is a phonetic spelling of “XI”, the roman numeral for eleven, as well as being an anagram of “AE XI”, meaning “Autechre eleven”, or “Autechre’s eleventh album”
  • The track title “18 (keyosc)” is likely in reference to it being the 18th track on the album.
