mp3.com/autechreS notice the S at the end of the name.
And as if this isn't bad enough the cd that is available is
EP9 as apposed to EP7. I don't know whether to laugh or get
mad.

Well if it's meant to be a joke then it is funny. But if the
purpose is to trick people into thinking he is Autechre then
it is sad and appauling.

Probably a way to draw peoples attention. "Hmmmmm.
Autechres. Haven't I heard that name before?"

So how is the music then? Crappy, I guess?

oh come on it's an ovious..hommage..there's also an aphex
twine..it's a part of a well established practice on
mp3.com..one of the fields you fill on the forms when you
join asks for names of similar artists..in which you plonk
in your influences, these also work as search keywords..one
of the great way of exploring mp3.com and the new music on
there is to plonk in the name of an established artist like
say autechre..and then klick on the similar artist link..and
all the artists that have cited autechre as an
influence/inspiration/similar artist will come up..it's a
great way to find new artists...

it's perfectly harmless..and I am sure the real artists
would be chuffed rather than hitting their law firms on the
speed dial

It's sorta similar as me practicing releasing MY songs on
soulseek under the names of popular artists. hehe. but
that doesn't promote me it just makes me giggle thinking
there are people out there listening to noise tracks by me
thinking "it's genious because richard made it"
