This is how I would rank the three but this is not a contest. I want it all!!! How do I go about finding all of the singles and unreleased stuff??? I see that there is a ton of stuff from James but where do I find it? And stuff from sean and rob as well but where can I find and obtain stuff that you cannot purchase? Theres got to be a way. I hope to hear from someone.

ebay has rare ae/gescom stuff, as does soulseek

I believe Squarepusher is the best of the lot. I didn't used to be so into him, but now I realise that technically, emmotionally and in terms of sheer impact he beats the rest imho.

i think autechre would be before the others on the list because of the amazing variety from song to song, from cd to cd. the mastery gone into making each sound so clean and physical also puts them up there.

I want to thank you all for the advice and conversation I hope that it helps. I'll be back to let you all know! As far as squarepusher goes i can almost see your point he has it but I think that R.D.J. is really untouchable. But I see it. Maybe i'll agree with you in a couple more years. i remember the first time I heard Squarepusher it was the worst thing next to someone shiting in my breakfast cereal. it was that bad! But things change! Who knows I may just strating eating shit one morning!!

Yeah, they're good for a very different reason. I find Squarepusher has a bigger emmotional impact, and he really knows his music and how to play instruments well, but Autechre have really interesting structures, sounds and systems within tracks which sometimes really hit the mark for me, but also can grate if I'm not in the mood.

the downside to all that superstructure is mega-boring songs usually, which goes on and on for soooo long, but wait, it does evolve, the hi-hat as changed pitch by 10micro-cents and it gained 3dB at 10Khz :D
just joking i love 'em

if we are talking live shows, autechre pulls out laser guns and missile launchers, swords and stealth bombers to destroy the rest in 5 seconds while smoking metal cigarettes. i have seen sqrpsher live and afx and really there is just no comparison. the physics you get in ae shows is much more interactive.

Oh yeah, live it's a completely different matter. Ae is increadable.
I haven't seen Squarepusher yet. I'm hoping to see him at the next gig.
Not too into Aphex these days.

man youve got to see sqrpusher next time hes touring or playing at a party. did this thing the last show i saw him at where his bass guitar is hooked up to his computer. the effect is not very strong in my memory, but, he was triggering stuff on his computer by plucking the strings. it might've just been gate-activated but, the stuff he was doing was awesome. sounded great.
ae though, what the fuck man, they like throw grenades at the audience.

lol. Didn't they make a track where the beats changed at such a rate that the human brain couldn't cope with.

As for which of the three is the best, I'd have to say Square Pusher. Although he's the most inconsistant and has some of the worst tracks out of the three, when he hit the note his contributions to music are amazing. I mean I have never been awed in such a way since I heard the egyptian delights of Anstromm Feck 4.

i can undrstand that, but to me it gets boring really quickly if i'm not in the mood, which is something and afx show does to me generaly, it puts me in the mood really quickly
et le pousseur de carrés ai jamais pu assister a un live-show donc j'nen sais rien du tout, j'aimerais bien d'ailleurs, must be well worth it !
