Tri Repetae (stylised as tri repetae.) is the third studio album by English electronic music duo Autechre, released on 6 November 1995 by Warp. In contrast to the duo's previous albums, Incunabula (1993) and Amber (1994), it features a distinct style that incorporates more minimal rhythms and spacious melodies.
Background
[edit | edit source]In contrast to Incunabula (1993) and Amber (1994), Tri Repetae features a distinct style that incorporates more minimal, repetitive rhythmic patterns and intricate, spacious arrays of melodies; the aesthetical shift was intentionally echoed by its album cover designed by the duo's visual collaborators The Designers Republic, consisting of only a single shade of beige. Stemming from Autechre's increasing preoccupation with unique electronic musical textures and glitches, the liner notes of the album mention a preference to listen to the album on vinyl for surface noise; the CD version states that the album is "incomplete without surface noise", whereas the vinyl version satisfactorily states that it is "complete with surface noise".
Release
[edit | edit source]In preparation for the 1997 release of the duo's fourth studio album Chiastic Slide, Tri Repetae was rereleased on 16 March 1996 by Wax Trax! Records and TVT Records in the United States as a two-disc set named Tri Repetae++, which included the Garbage and Anvil Vapre EPs constituting the second CD. In Japan, it was released with the bonus track "Medrey".[5] On 11 November 2016, Tri Repetae was re-released on vinyl by Warp,[6] along with their two previous albums, Incunabula and Amber.
