wow. how big do you have to get (err, how big do you think you have to be) in order to write in 3rd person? |

listening to a couple of his tracks on myspace, it would appear that Warp made the right move. |

Isn't the new album gonna be like minimal-techno-funk? WTF? Warp have gone a bit mental I think.... |

"It has come to the decision of Warp Records" "Let this be a motivational and inspirational message for artists alike." Too bad the blurb was written by an 11-year old. I like the sycophantic comments as well: "your creative clock,has always been set a decade ahead of the rest.." You know, setting a clock for the future doesn't make it tomorrow faster, it just makes you wait longer in the doctor's office. |

I've always been a fan of Jimmy Edgar's music - not all of it...(plus device) but i think there's some unbelievable stuff on Merck and on Access Rhythm. Hell, i'm even into in a big way, despite (or maybe because of) the cheeeeezee! mmmmm bit baffling as to why they didn't give him any constructive criticism, i think Steve Beckett's a |

He showed so much promise with My Mines I. Everything else has been spotty, but he still has his moments (Pret a Porter for example). I haven't really liked much of the new stuff I've heard (Plus Device, Her Bad Habit). I hope the new material is actually good and Warp is making a mistake, but I could definitely see the opposite being true. |

I either love or hate his music: I know that can be the case for lots of music, but it seems especially true of his. Sometimes it sounds repetitive and utterly boring. But recently it has sounded very slick and bangin. Must be the weather. |

I like some of his stuff (My Mines I was pretty good, some of his warp stuff was decent as well), but he sounds like the kind of artist labels would be happy to part with. If he was half as good as he thinks he is warp would keep him. |

I agree, his Merck tracks are great. Well, half of them from the 'My Mines I' album. His new stuff? Not so great... sounds like a pretentious version of Stephine Tanner Surprise. |

I've just re-read his message sober. I didn't notice how badly written and bizarre it was. There's moments where it looks like the writer is forgetting that he's talking about himself in the third person - hard to explain. I wonder why Warp would reject it, though - I mean they're fine with putting stuff like Confield out, so i can't see why his music would be too 'futuristic' or whatever. |

Perhaps he would have more luck if he sent them some early 90s indie music. I think they like that now |

isn't it because warp knows a certain number of people will buy the autechre album regardless of how it sounds (within reasonable limits, of course)? admittedly, how autechre have managed to stay commercially viable is astonishing. what's the point in nitpicking, though-when you work hard to make a record while signed to a lable and then when it's done the label says they're not going to release it, it's going to piss you off, and maybe you'll go on oprah or myspace and make an ass of yourself while you're pissed off and/or drunk. i can't comment on his music though since i'm cutting down on my internet opinions... |
