richard devine and autechre in my opinion are hardly comparable with the exception of asect dsect which has obvious autechre inspired rhythms and note and or chord progressions within melodies and anti-melodies. autechre's work tends to contain more depth and a broader range of sound design and character both in sound and arrangments. richard devine is generally faster and more meticulous with frequency hand grenades being tossed about the mix he does tends to be predictable with sound design and arrangment agreeing with Zephyr_Nova up above... but he has his place and can be fun. personally if i had THAT kind of home studio i would definately be exploring more techniques and craft both in sound design and engineering and in arrangments.
as to the comment left above by Trewq hes actually a pretty nice guy i dont understand the american/british throw-down thats so 1997.

Well, autechre's main influences are mostly American. Read an interview.

Pattelle is the one for me...just that right bakance between constantly changing and having some loops in there to provide an anchor of sorts...
Pattelle is me is the way drum n bass would sound if Kraftwerk had continued moving forward instead of getting lost in their own mythos...
Techno, to me, has to be music that sounds like it's been beamed back from some distant time - that goes doubly for Intelligent Techno - cutting edge - I want my mind to be be-overwhelmed sometimes with the ultra modern and RD hits that spot more often than anyone else I can name - he up with Aphex in my book...
I'd love to meet the guy as I feel he's a bit of a soulmate - even if that does sound creepy....

Erm..so inspiration is out then? Bagging Devine for doing Ae inspired stuff? Well how about bagging Paradinas for doing Richardesque stuff...and so on and so forth...
This is pretty ridiculous attitude really.

yeah and if you dont get bagged for resembling your inspirations you'll get bagged for the process in which you made your music, versus the result of the process

Well funny that people keep relating Ae as an inspiration for Devine..while I first picked up Lipswitch because it was the closest thing to the awesome might of A SHOCKING HOBBY by Speedy J...a truly singular album as even Speedy J never ventured that hard heavy and deep after having made that...Devine's best tracks are all about crushing metallic grooves that unspool like shrapnel from a hand grenade...pretty much a blueprint laid down by A SHOCKING HOBBY...while Autechre are well..(swoon) Autechre...
I think the closest point of reference to Devines sound is Big Beat..and comparing it Autechre is like comparing Psychedelic rock to hardcore punk...

well with all things considered, Devine is NOT Autechre. But he is VERY similar to Eight Frozen Modules (who I dont think gets enough discussion here).
Time to time, I actually prefer 8FM, but his ragga break shit is kinda whack

Yeah patelle is the one track I go back and listen to.
I'm just not intelligent enough for his other stuff. It's like math homework that makes my ears hurt.

Devine proves to me its harder to write a wonderful melody than to send 8 thousand midi messages to a stack of high priced equipment. Id take one avril 14 for his whole catalog. No offense to his fans.
