I dont have this comp, but I DO have the remix of Torsten Pröfrocks "9" by Autechre, and I believe this is the only physical release on which this track has appeared.

A shame, because its one of Autechres best. A 2/2 kick rhythm is unusual in techno, let alone the abrasive industrial textures Ae used here. For nearly 10 minutes this thing steamrolls along with punishing relentlessness, powerful drums set to glitchy machine rhythms hypnotically pounding along. Of course this being Autechre, the initial repetition is a ploy - this piece changes up a lot during the 10 minutes, and stays utterly compelling throughout.

A shame Ae dont make more tunes like this, and insist on sticking with their uber-cerebral IDM/glitch nonsense nowadays. Their remix of 9, and the Confield bonus track Mcr Quarter, are rare pieces of powerful industrial techno in their catalogue. Recommended for fans of Reeko, British Murder Boys and Grovskopa.
