i dont get why people say that. in fact, i find that their music has a lot of emotion, probably the most emotion-ful within the idm scene (for me).
anyway, why do people say that? too machine-sounding, is this it?

Me either, I think their music more than most other stuff is carried by emotion never mind devoid of it.

well... music means differnt things to different people
theres styles I dont find all that emotional... and same with other people
its just taste
if everyone found all music emotional... theyd listen to it all.
just different ways of expressing it is all.
the people who dont like autechre just have a different point of veiw on music...

it isn't emotionless, it just comes out really dry sometimes I don't think that AE has anymore emotion than Aphex though especially when you take into account SAW II but as the lightsaber-wielding monkey said "they're entitled to their opinion"
I'm entitled You're entitled We're all entitled And we all said...

it's sometimes too experimental for me... and that gets in the way...

yeah, i do agree with the fact that it's all subjective, a matter of personal taste, different perception. and i do agree that some tracks are pretty dry too (ie, underBOAC), but i still sense a lot of emotion in them.

Like confield. to me that's a sloppy mess, like they bashed their forehead on their synthesizer and recorded it. This album i cannot get into, but chiastic slide....oooo.....love it.

here's what I said elsewhere
hmm..I personally think emotions are overrated..for the genre we are discussing..if you are going into a composition
creating songs to appeal to the emotions..it's just cheap and sensationalist..that's what the Elton Johns and the Eric
Claptons were placed on this earth for..if on the other hand
emotional tension arises as a natural part of the process out of an artist somehow managing to graft a piece of their
mood and their self a that precise moment of creation..then
it can be the most beautiful thing...to me that is the classic departure point..and what the makes the beauty and melancholy of some of autechre's work so much superior to BoC...I mean even the song titles of Ae are intentionally elusive and indecipherable..the packaging and graphics are sparse and minimal..and yet the material can be emotionally
engaging..why?..because it hasn't been quantified and classified..and you can easily attach any emotion and feeling from your own experience to it..
