Silverside is fuckin' amazing. And there's other music like it - but not by Autechre?
I heard just a short sample of this song a few weeks ago, and knew it was for me; however after buying a few of Autechre's albums it seems that Silverside is a smoothe & elegant anomaly among track after track of either "fast forward till it calms down," or "construct a skyscraper in 10 minutes with nothing but your surrenge" music.
But, I have heard music like it - using the same electronica style and type of distortion of human voice; only I have no idea who made it. There's no longer a link to it, but I once heard what could have come from Autechre if the rest of his music was more like "SIlverside" than a assembly line for killer robots, making music for killer robots. It was runway music on a low-bitrate video of Calvin Klein's Fall 2001 collection. BUT! I've searched on google and found a couple mentions of Autechre and runway music... Maybe? No. I've heard enough of Autechre - Amber, and the adjacent albums Incunabula and Tri Repetae; Silverside is apparently as good as it gets with Autechre.
The album Silverside is on - Amber, while it does have a couple other decent tracks, none come close to a similar style as Silverside - perhaps "classical edged techno-passion".
Know any similar music? When I say similar, I'm mean to be very specific - If you heard Silverside and other songs like it, and didn't know better, you'd be sure were they produced by the same guy intending them all for a very consistent album.
The style of Silverside, by Autechre

Check out our "IDM" (I don't like the word "IDM", btw) -station Braindance Radio. At the moment we're beta-testing it and cannot serve too many users, so don't spam this URL till we're ready. The stream is in low-bitrate high-quality Ogg VorbisOn 2004-04-01 12:24, Evil Tez wrote:
