A must have if you enjoy Autechre's Amber album. The first 2 tracks are closer to Amber's style (cool beats, ambient rythyms). While the second 2 tracks are much more drone-ish. The closing track has got to be one of Autechre's best ever... Even though its only a few simple sounds looped over and over, getting louder and more clearer - its just amazing. Must be heard to fully understand.

Garbagemx36 is most probably the best song I've ever heard because it has so much layers, so much good ideas and finally it feels like one long story which incorporates all the good sides of music itself. There's rhythm, there's melody, there are harmonies, there are disharmonies. There are clicks and plops - everything you need. It's like an ode to the humanity with all good and evils together. The song is sad and happy in the same time.

Probably my favorite EP from Autechre. Track 1, Garbagemx36, is a 14 minute track of the usual Autechre work. Long and clicky. Tracks 2 and 3 are where it starts to pick it. These 2 songs, Bronchusevenmx24 & PIOBmx19 are more along the lines of Autechre's Amber album work. The last track, VLetrmx21 is one of my favorite Autechre tracks ever. Long, soothing and peaceful... yet at the same time filled with hopelessness and dispair. A must have EP if you enjoy the mid nineties Autechre.

This ep includes probably one of their greatest pieces, "Vletrmx21". Its dark,long,brooding and minimal and has an air of tension and foreboding. Worth buying for this track alone.

Probably Autechre's best stuff before their innovative switch to cold and mechanical music. While this is not as inventive as their more recent albums, it is still one of the best CDs I have ever heard. It may sound repetitive to some, but you just have to let it sink in slowly. The last track almost puts tears in your eyes.

If you got Amber, then you need this too! As already mentioned, this are most likely the leftover tracks from Amber. And if you look inside the coversleeve, you can see there is a blurred picture of the desert-like picture from the Amber cover.

Also here I find all of the tracks very good. Piobmx has some odd vocal sounds that actually work as a part of the track itself! And for me the best song here is the last track, Vletrmx. I think it sounds like a revelation of some sort.

Thoughtful works of art by the machines Rob Booth and Shawn Brown. Each track builds in classic Tri-Repetae++ fashion with hints of Amber. All melodies are fantastic and interesting. If you didn't purchase TVT's U.S. 2X CD release, pick this up!

This is Autechre's lighter ambient side. Deep, and moving songs, which are very emotional. The tracks are said to be left overs from the Amber sessions, but they're no "Garbage".

Garbage is perhaps the only overrated early Autechre recordings. "Vletrmx21" is widely said to be the group's best track, but I found it too repetitive -- and not enough ideas. But it does have a huge, majestic, glorious sound; it's what I think could be the music that's played when you enter heaven. Still, Autechre has produced vastly superior tracks.

That said, tracks one and three are the best here. "Garbagemx36" is one of Ae's longer pieces. It's a funky tune that represents the first major change in their work. Incunabula and Amber could be thought of as the first chapter in the story of Autechre. The Garbage EP is the first page of chapter two, with its intricately crunchy, pulsating percussion underlining a melancholy, floating melody. It's a formula that would serve Autechre well in the ensuing years, and although they have since moved on, it is still imitated by countless others.

Nineteen ninety-five was an amazing year for Autechre, in which they seriously laid groundwork for what is now called IDM. This EP is one of the first shots fired in that movement.

first couple of tracks are a bit tedious; rather dry and therefore hard to take. latter two are impeccable, particularly bronchusevenmx - just amazingly atmospheric, blazingly emotional. makes you want to score a film to it.
