Got a replacement for my LP5 and it also skips on the first track on both turntables I own. I think it must be something to do with how hard and heavy that track must be mastered as it isn't so much skipping like it's damaged excpet the needle is being jogged forward

I also hear an actual glitch in both acroyear and rae on mine. Definitely feels like an issue with the master and not the physical pressing. Anyone else hearing this? Might try and record my copy. Otherwise it's a good sounding pressing. The analog format absolutely softens the digital textures in a good way

got the reissue on now and man I forgot how crunchy every track on this album is. every single beat is sick. I can't believe this LP wasn't sampled constantly. and people thought this was a step down from Tri Rep? get outta here. "Recury" alone is so far ahead of everything they'd done to this point.

Just found out that "cichlid" is a type of fish that includes tilapia

My wearing autechre t-shirts to find other fans strategy had a near miss - someone wearing a draft 7.30 shirt walked past at high speed and went into the supermarket by the bus stop i was waiting at. i then saw him through the window in the queue, he caught my nts shirt and we exchanged a thumbs up, then the bus came. he looked like he was about 12 - ok maybe 18, idk - so not sure how i would have handled any potential conversation.

Xp no way. 25 years of Autechre lore fandom and I had no idea they were such big fish stans

(last week i crossed someone on the street wearing a uniqlo "Takiyasha the Witch and the Skeleton Spectre" t-shirt whilst wearing my uniqlo "Sudden Shower over Shin-Ōhashi bridge and Atake" t-shirt but he didn't notice and i didn't say anything)

xp All the tracks on Cichlisuite seem to be at least tangentially fish-related.
"Characi(dae)" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characidae
"Pencha" is the Bengali word for "owl" and "Bhutum Pencha" the Brown Fish Owl specifically: https://en.banglapedia.org/index.php/Owl
"Yees Land" is an aquatic-themed level from the Sega Genesis game Space Harrier II where you fight enemies that resemble jellyfish, clams, and frogs https://strategywiki.org/wiki/Space_Harrier_II/Yees_Land
That last one is kind of a stretch but seems very on-brand for Autechre.
