Oversteps is atmospheric, majestic and monumental…a sort of IDM Vangelis or a Medieval Morricone. With fewer of the spindly, gangly and obtuse sonic shapes thrown by previous releases poking out the edges, Oversteps is surprisingly accessible (relatively speaking!). Autechre’s quintessential electro harpsichord flourishes and melodies carrying the day. Oversteps is still experimental and sure to perturb dull normals – it’s just that Autechre have taken it to yet the next level and it just happens to be slightly less angular and ambient up there. The pod bay doors are open Hal, go into the light and trip the fantastic.
