Yes,yes,I know,yet another friggin` Autechre topic,and yet another Grantz Graf topic,but I just bought it the other day.
And I have to say I thought it was excellent,the music video went with the sound perfectly,but the other 2 videos I was a bit dissapointed with.Bass Cadet was a bit dull [I wouldnt watch it again]and second bad vilbel wasnt even as good as the original video[I was expecting something great here considering its chris cunninghams second[bad]version of it].
As for the single I thought Dial. was the best track,better than I was expecting.Still,Grantz Graf is a weird ass song to release as a single,I dont think its gonna get to number 1.But excellent none the less.

How can anyone be dissapointed, that shit is mad.
I don't think autechre release their music to make the charts.
And you're right, autechre isn't music, it's an experience.

I can't say enough about this release, especially the title track.
The first time I heard so-called industrial music it disappointed the hell out of me. I wanted to hear the sounds of giant insane devil robots sodomizing the Three Tenors in a huge echoing Arena of Unparalleled Hatred and the whole thing held together with Big Red Straps. What I got was some art student whapping an oil drum with his nutsack.
Gantz Graf is what I expected from industrial music, and it's a relief to hear it at last. It's also like Black Metal without the sorry ass makeup and silly lyrics that make ya cringe. It redefines blind seething rage.
Goes good with Darjeeling tea, too.

I lost my taste for Earl Grey after drinking Twinings. Bletch. Turpentine! Spoiled my taste for the beverage of starship captains.
Assam in the morning, Darjeeling in the afternoon, Japanese green tea anytime (Maeda-En is cheap and deee-licious).
Salada when I feel like slumming. :-)

Damn I can't wait for it to arrive ! Watch what you say about Earl Grey !!! 'Tis the king of teas. Yeah green tea rox too although I'd like to get hold of the real stuff rather than the green tea simulacrum that I drink - Tchae.

I think you can safely call what ae do "music".
its marketed as "music" in most parts of the world.

Netlon,
This is an effect of the way computers display DVD video. In order to cut down on usage of memory and the video card, the video signal is routed directly through to the VGA monitor output, so it bypasses the other stuff.
You do need software to capture dvd screenshots, but unfortunetely, I can't think of any examples. Try doing a search.

That's interesting. I always wondered why I got that annoying square of DVD imagery screwing with windows. I just thought it was WinDVD being shite.

Tonyfish, is there a Chinatown in Paris? Ya gotta find an oriental store for the good green tea at a decent price. Health food stores will be happy to sell you repackaged crap for exorbitant prices. I get mine at a little Korean grocery.
Tchae? You mean Chai? The stuff with nutmeg and cinnamon and spices that tastes like liquid pumpkin pie? Very nice, but I think it's made with a blend of black teas, assam and such.
Oolong is also nice. Tastes like a cup of autumn leaves, which is more pleasant than you'd expect. Goes best with Bauhaus, Cryptopsy, early Tiamat and the shades drawn.

If you want to capture screenshots, get PowerDVD.

Oh man Chai tea is so gooood! There is a Tibetan restaurant that does excellent chai and lhassi on the rue St Jacques near the Pantheon. If you are after Chinese goods go to Tolbiac south of Place d'Italie in the 13eme (huge "Paris Store" supermarket where they barely speak French!)
