I just picked up Explores We. First let me say that I appreciate noise. I both like &
understand Richard Jamess music and Autechre is one of my favorite bands, but I do not
get The Farmers Manual. The first several tracks are all but silent and the next 30 tracks
sound like a distant recording of someone cleaning their house. Somewhere around track 39
there is some kind of music, but it does not seem to me to be anything special. Now before
you Farmers Manual, fans start flaming me, I really am not out to trash this group, I just
want someone who appreciates them to tell me what they like about them, and why. I have
found that most of the time when I dont like something at first it is because I dont
understand it. So tell me why this album is good.
Thanks,
