I've just downloaded some Ae tracks. I've got to say-their concerts must be boring as fuck. I don't mind them having no visuals or anything, but the music is just as repetitive/slow building as their albums. Which is fine late at night with headphones, but I couldn't imagine standing up for two hours, with two blokes knob-twiddling on stage in darkness making some nice music which would be fine IN A NON LIVE situation. |

their gigs are quite different from their albums, most of the time. get hold of the portland 2001 performance for a truly mesmerising trip |

Well....they sound shit normally so.... :P |

i can't find specific things, it's rarely i see live tracks...but the ones I've heard are too close to their albums style for confort. I'm not sure I would want to see them live if I'll be presented with the wondering noise I'm hearing-you need to spend a while with that music to get it...i.e-not a live environment. |

I saw them in manchester just before confield came out and i was gutted because it sounded like they were playing the same track all night long and they didnt play anything with any structure all night !most people left :( the warm up dj was better ,but i still love the scallywags:) |

hm well i've never been to any idm gig, but the thing autechre do sound better than the horror stories of artists only standing behind their laptops or just sending their lap tops. and i must repeat my previous statement :| |

Um, I say don't judge them based on mp3s made from a minidisc recorder stuffed under someone's shirt. If you get a chance, go and see them live. It's different when you are in that environment and you are more receptive because the experience is actually more than what's coming through your headphones. Yeah, the tracks from some shows (in 2001) are repetitive. On the recording made in Toronto in May 01 you can hear a guy saying "It's getting kinda boring", to which someone else responds, "yeah... but it's still cool though". Makes me laugh. I was at that show and never noticed it, because like I said, it's different when you're there. |

Agreed with you,but I like better their Coachella 1999 live performance than the Portland one,personal opinion..That performance for me is one of their best so far..Get that one and compare.. |

i understand that the music that i like is good. The same way I understand that music i don't like is shitty. Don't patronize people like that, you make it sound like your music taste is above everyone else who "don't get" autechre's music |

YOU NEED TO LISTEN TO AUTECHRE - LIVE IN MANCHESTER 5 FOR YOU OWN SAFETY |
||||||||
|

Is that Autechre performance a most recent one cygnus? |

i like Autechres live approach. There was a time i heard them play thier studio stuff live but nowadays i like the idea that i will be listening to something i havent heard before. The first track on the last tour was fantastic imho. Seen them live about half a dozen times - not bored yet :P |

I've seen them once, and I also have a minidisc recording of the same show. I can see where CS2x is coming from, cos when I've played the recording to others they often say it's boring, but I find it mesmerising. If you go see Æ, make sure you or a friend records it so you can fully "digest" it later. You'll still enjoy the show, but this way it's like you get a new album made for you personally... |

autechre live are awesome. saw them live short after confield was released (i absolutely dislike the album) they played some of the tracks on it and it was astonishing ! especialy the location was cool, they appeared in a local jazz club after the normal show - quite nice cut from live jazz to sick eletronix =) |

aye, the coachella gig is unbelievably solid, but i like the insane, yet clubby feel of the portland show :( it sounds more if an improvisation, too, although i've heard similar shows |
||||||||

I do "get" their music. I like their albums....however, what I was saying was that I don't believe the style I am hearing on mp3's would be exciting when one is standing up in a gig for two hours. Still, those who enjoy their gigs-I'll take your word for it...;) When are they next playing live anyway? |

i though that i was going to die, i had to bend forward in order to protect my chest from the rolling bass kick bouncing my heart around. the walls had to collapse ,i mean would they hold? most of my mates were now crounching on the floor, and emily seemed to be floating of the ground.......NEVER had we heard music that loud,honest. halfway they were forced to turn down a bit though..... we all left not knowing what the fuck had hit us....i ll remember that concert all my life...i mean russel haswel on just before was light..... |
