[ripped from the Planet Mu forum]
"Autechre's last ever press interview!"
Next months Future Music magazine — on sale 25th March
This is the blurb from this months mag...
"Late in January, we managed to get what Autechre are calling their last press event... ever. In anticipation of the release of their new album Draft 7.30, Autechre hired out a hotel near Reading for the week and invited the world's press along for a final grilling (as well as a few cocktails, coffees and canapés). Watch out next month for our interveiw with the pair, plus our rating of the new album (even if the promo they sent out was in cassette version only)!"

though it sounds a bit like a stars' caprice to hire a full hotel and receptions and cocktails and all that, and say it will be the last interview... doesn't it?

maybe they are content not to release any more music, and therefore will not have anything more to say...

No no! We've already established for FACT that they hired an entire hotel in Reading. It says so in that Planet Mu text, so it is true.

don't say things like that monoid!
i'm dying for some new commentary from them, i read lots and lots of stuff on autechre.nu but it's generally pretty dated

Yup, Takeshi Kitano.
The particular shot from which the avatar is culled is in Brother.

Yes, Takeshi Kitano, now I remember. I want to see Brother. I have heard much about it. Some hate it, other praise it.

maybe they're just done talking about the music. i've gathered that they're of the opinion that the music speaks for itself and all the chit chat about the process of making it and how they feel about it isn't necessary. am i delusional or have others got this same impression from their interviews? they might finally just let the music be.

If they DO go their seperate ways... then instead of an Autechre album every year or so, we'll get a Booth AND a Brown.

Nope. They'll probably each be about 75% as good as Autechre.
75+75= 150%

i dont think they have any reason to break up. ive read that alot of their songs already are solo, so there would be no point.

Largely underrated because western critics just couldn't grasp the unique nature of a Kitano film.

I like japanese culture, that's why I am interested in the movie. But it is exactly as you say. Western critics doesn't understand it.

Brother amused me greatly. A lot of people expected Kitano to go to the US and do a 'John Woo' - make a typical Hollywood movie with a few of his own directorial trademarks.
Of course, Kitano just made the same kind of movie he always makes, the only difference being setting it in Los Angeles.
I bet that pissed a few people off ;)
