A good read about Autechre!

Here's a good review / synopsis about Autechre that was
posted at Autechre.nu by I guess Phobiazero. It's a very
insightful read...very knowledgable and I hope you all read
it. I learned a whole lot of new things...one of them being
that John Peel named the tracks for PS2 .. not Autechre. I
don't agree with all that he says (he puts down a lot of
stuff and doesn't think much of Vletrmx21 >_<) but it's
still good.

It's lengthy as he covers all their cds but it's worth it in
some new things you might learn about Autechre. :)

I like to think of ep7 as a short ep album, just one that
had been expanded (waped) in time and made more microscopic.
I don't like when reviewers just sidestep something
phenomenal like 4 and 5 on chichlisuite, just like they're
oh, just some other song in this big "genre" of stuff that
all sounds similar. But I don't even care what I think much
less anyone else.

didn't like it, it's sometimes transperant. full of info -
yes. it was a good topic for a "ghahah" laugh with some
friends.

anyway, respect for that guy's work, i don't think it's easy
to gather so much knowledge about an event like autechre.

I know that. But I think it's still important to get
feedback from others just like in any line of art. You see
new things that way.

I wish they'd make some comments about the vocals in their
songs.

I think you can judge music easy. My primary judge is
originality. That's is why Aphex blew my away the first
time. I never music in this way ever.

wait... wtf...

(amber)"The record as a whole, however, is plagued by a lack
of focus. Many of the tracks seem to go nowhere, and the
album is very poorly sequenced."

who the fuck is he to say any of that?

Throw a "heard" in the last line. Gotta read over my posts.

I know cygnus. I wrote to him and he said he likes it...he
was just putting too much of his own opinion in it...which
he shouldn't have. he said he might re-write it.

I was hurt when he said that about Amber :(

sad? this guy fucked up amber, i didn' remember him saying
anything good about it. that old incunabula-amber shit...

sygnus you're right.

cfern, that's just an opinion about the review, not about
the music.
