last night i and some mates were listening to some music and stuff, and then i put on untilted. none of them is really familiar with autechre, but one guy was totally impressed by it, eventhough he listens to very different music normally. he started saying about the wicked transitions and layers and i would never think people would notice that on the first listen..and to think it took me ages to get into them..jav |

he started to ask all sorts of questions related to how they produce music, how they sound live..seemed really interested. and he never heard of them before.. |

Oh god, that's great. I Remember a time when i tried to play a bit of aphex with my friends but nothing to do. They continued to say "This is music for crazy people! We can't enjoy this music" I couldn't imagine if i tried to play autechre, it would have been a thing impossible. They usually listen electronic music but not like us, Prodigy Chemical Brothers, Fat Boy Slim etc.. Instead i have been happy because later i played Plaid and LFO and they enjoyed them. I hope my friends can do me questions like your friends Goran! :) |

i listen to prodigy and chemical brothers..infact they were both in my fav acts in early 90's :) but yes, from my experience italians are totally crazy about aphex twin, but not so much about autechre..although that could be the same as everywhere else. but to see +30.000 people rave to aphex twin is an awesome experience!! |

I remember a crazy friend from a while ago, well into crap house and versace interior. He heard some aphex round my house and was like "this is a bit crap isn't it? a bit amateurish." I remember thinking "yeah" and i've never played crappy aphex again. |

jav....that's a cool story. lately i've been trying to convert my punk-indie-oldfield-coldwave cousin to autechre, i made him a mix cd with some fast tracks like "yeesland" or energetic like "laughing qrter". he liked them. mission almost complete... :) he also liked the first track from the 2005 geneva live recording, the energy of it. |

The guy would wear tight cycling shorts and football boots, with some posh shirt. He would hang around town asking people if he could smell their feet or shoes. The man loved socks. Angelo is/was perhaps my favourite italian ever. |

at the end of a recent party when there was only a few peope left i played draft 7.30 up to track 7 and like 4 friends didnt hate it to liked it : D it was up to track 7 cos someone came outside to join us and turned it to other music as soon as he stepped outside. |

Yes, here in Italy we can find people crazy for aphex, but believe me, there are also persons that they don't know him or quite hate him and his music. I can imagine the confusion in turin that night :) BTW: Sometimes i listen some Prodigy and Chemical Brothers, i like them.. |

well, it's quite amazing for me to see that many ppl into him, because overhere i don't even know more that 5 people that know him..most people have heard of it but think it's a band or something..i wonder how many ppl would turn up for his gig if it happened..which never will most likely.. |
