Frank Zappa: I don't think the typical rock fan is smart enough to know he's been duped, so it doesn't make any difference ... Those kids wouldn't know good music if it came up and bit them on the ass. Especially in terms of a live concert where the main element is visual. Kids go to see their favorite acts, not to hear them. We work on the premise that nobody really hears what we do anyway, so it doesn't make any difference if we play a place that's got ugly acoustics. The best responses we get from an audience are when we do our worst material. Preston: Oh, how can you say that? Zappa: It's true man. "Louie Louie" brings the house down every time. |

Autechre should cover Louie Louie. Hmmm, on second thought maybe they have and we don't recognize it. |

most probably ALL of it is, in fact, Louie Louie. |

Pitchfork: ...If you wrote every song so that it covered the listener in maple syrup and sprinted into a chorus within the first 30 seconds. Sean Booth: Maybe we could just start songs like that, and then take them off somewhere. Make songs that start like Britney for the first 30 seconds and then turn into Hecker or Yasunao Tone. |

it was back on the first page; however, i think that the reason for squarepusher's "tough personality" is because he's underappreciated; wouldn't you also harbor some resentment, if you had given such a profound, benevolent, excellent gift to the world, and not seen your love reflected as fully as it should be. |

Are you trying to be innovative or do you just do what you do in an Autechre bubble and ignore everything else out there? RB: No matter what we say or do, we are essentially pleasing ourselves. We can’t please everyone because we’d be doing something other than what we’re doing now. We wouldn’t have started doing what we did then for the same reasons. We’d have been trying to get on XL recordings on the back of Prodigy or something. We went to a label in Manchester that distributed XL. The guy there was like, “Yeah, you need to measure it up more squared like every 16 bars, maybe get a vocal loop in there, maybe a rock stab would be fresh.” And we’re thinking, “Shut up! This isn’t what we do.” The best thing he said was, “It reminds me of Brian Eno.” But that was an insult from him. |

Billy Piper, what first atracted you to middle aged millionare Chris Evans? Cher, You look like a million dollars. Is that what it cost? The second one was Clive Anderson, I forget who the first one was. |

You are currently working on your third album, which is apparently due for release in Spring 2005. What can we expect? Mira Calix: Uhm, music? ;-) |

AR - Any new ideas since Confield came out? SB -Um yeah (laughs), yeah (laughs) you can't really stop it, it just comes, you know what I mean? It just something that happens. So yeah, a constant flow of shit. Always doing shit, I suppose. I mean, a lot of the tracks on that album are like getting on two years old, now. It's kind of like yeah, we've done quite a few things since we did a lot of that stuff, anyway. So, a lot of the stuff we did for the tour was, well none of was on the EP, so that was all a bit of rinse. And since we came back we've been developing shit, really. Yeah, it's a constant thing, there's no point where we are or are not making tracks, you know what I mean? If we've got a computer there's a good chance of thinking about working even if we're not working. = Well, we're pretty much always writing actually. |

"The last twelve years of playing live with this version of Underworld and with Rick has been extraordinary, pretty much every show we’ve done, playing to people who are giving you back so much energy and joy that you are lifted and taken somewhere else. Never needed drugs, never took drugs and never took anything on stage, because the energy that was coming back to us was extraordinary." [Karl Hyde] |

PSF: You've been cautious about using the word 'ambient' for your music even though you've used it for titles. Any reason for this? RDJ: It's pretty funny really. I don't like the word but I use it on my own records. I didn't care really- when I used it, it made me laugh to think that I'd call something with a word that I don't actually like. (laughs) I thought it was funny. At the end of the day, I don't care what anything is called. It's just whether I like it or not. PSF: You don't like 'ambient' music then? RDJ: Things like that are really just easy listening. If I want to fall asleep or I'm really stoned, I'll listen to something like that. I really don't like that kind of stuff now. I like fast stuff to keep my brain interested. I get really bored with loops going around for ages. I need something happening all the time to keep me interested. PSF: Another term that's been used to describe your work is 'intelligent dance music.' RDJ: I just think it's really funny to have terms like that. It's bascially saying 'this is intelligent and everything else is STUPID.' It's really nasty to everyone else's music. (laughs) It makes me laugh, things like that. I don't use names. I just say that I like something or I don't. |

You’ve enrolled part of your family on Smash, including your mother, folk singer Paula Moore, and your four-year-old niece. How did you get the idea of getting them to participate, and how did they react? My mom was a little bit nervous, but she ended up liking it. I think she likes some of my music. It was very easy for me this way, very natural, and it seemed pretty cool. It was trickier with my niece. I had to barter with her, promising her soda so she would say what I wanted her to say. I had to record three or four words at a time. |

Asha: I read somewhere that you have completed one album but have buried it somewhere in the center of the earth. What is the story behind this? Bogdan Raczynski: Yes, it was a fun project, that one. I composed an album in the last few years, mastered it, burned it and buried it somewhere when I was on holidays. There are clues to finding it, but you'll have to own all of my publicly released CDs to have any chance of finding out where it is. |

What inspires you to write, and what makes you take one specific direction when you write a song? I get a lot of ideas in the morning usually in the shower, sometimes when I’m peeing. I don't know why. I can sit at my desk for hours staring at a blank piece of paper or sit at the piano in the evening and wait and hope and wish for ideas and then give up. Then I'll be making lunch and I’ll look out the window and see a federal express truck and the slogan is "the world on time" and suddenly I’m ready to go. Suddenly I got all kinds of ideas. So i guess I just take inspiration from everyday crap. |

yes, and the literal transcription, if you record the interview and put it on the net paraphrase (rewrite keeping the original spirit) or put up a soundfile!!!!!!! |

Paraphrasing Luke Vibert. This is the single most useful piece of advise if you follow it when making music; When you've been working on a bit for ages, it gets really hard to just delete it. You sort of get attached to it and even if it doesn't really work in the track it can be hard to bring yourself to ditch all that work. Best thing to do is be merciless; just record the offending bit off to tape and then cut if from the track and carry on. |
