are Autechre losing inspiration?

From Autechre.Nu:
I absolutely don't like GantzGraf.
When Autechre wrote Chiastic Slide,
they made A NEW THING.Now, they are simply "decanos",and i
think they've lost a bit of inspiration.It seems they bring
to the extreme consequencies their ideas since 1996-1997,but
there's
no new astounding intuitions.
Maybe i'm wrong; what do you think?

graphic plugin,but nothing more...

I think the title track Gantz Graf is really cool , the
other two tracks suck imo!
Is it me or is the version in the video of Gantz Graf a bit
different then on the EP?
A bit more panning effects and subbtle harmonies?
Or is it the nature/concept of the video that make me hear
this better?

watch GantzGraf video here
(also watch the awesome video for tools "Parabola" , it
keeps changing all the time , freaky! higly recomended)

(especially to flea)IMHO,Cunningham's "2nd bad vilbel" video
was more innovative and visionary than that.

why the fuck does an artist have to go in a new direction
with every release? if they have a landmark in music, do you
think it's a piece of fucking cake to make another big
achievement? it's hard, guys.
lay off, gantz graf was good. all tracks were good. let them
do their work, they dont need a new groundbreaking album
everytime they put something out?

(especially to alien workshop)
When i buy an album from Autechre,i expect to hear something
that surprises me.
It's since LP5 that i don't feel such a sensation.

Carisba -- word. you cant expect anything from ae, they are
always making kick ass noises

months..........now all is fine :0)

I was talking about the music on Gantz Graf..it's
brilliant..daring and confrontational and yet brimming with
a sense of humour...the video..hmm is so so...

GG has been discussed to death on this board. let it lie; if
you're still ambivalent about it, read old threads for
people's opinions. i think it's time to move on. the last
thing i'll do is remind people that the 3 tracks on GG are
just leftovers from the confield sessions, not brand new
tracks. i don't know what inspires autechre to make music
but i find their material still fresh and innovative.
