Trivia

  • Some of the equipment used forTri Repetae include the R8, Juno, 202, MS-10 Korg, Quadraverb, Ensoniq EPS, Atari 1040 running C-Lab Creator, Boss RSD-10, and possibly the 606.[3]
  • Tri repetae translates to "three times" in Latin.
  • Tri Repetae is the first Autechre album to have a bonus track for the Japanese CD release.
  • Tri Repetae is the first Autechre album to have its title include a numerical reference to the album's placement in the discography (tri = three). Other subsequent records which also clearly reference the placement number in the title include LP5, Draft 7.30 and Exai.
  • "Tri Repetae" might be a way of saying "Try Again", due to Autechre not feeling like Incunabula was their true first album, and Amber being the result of Warp Records commissioning an album to be made as quickly as possible. The blank artwork may tie into this theory, as to represent a clean slate or fresh start.
  • The sticker on the CD issue reads "Incomplete without surface noise"[4] while the sticker on the vinyl issue reads "Complete with surface noise."[5]
