I'd say they're on a par. All this Autechre vs Everyone Else Making
Music bullshit can only go so far. Sure, Autechre are a talented
couple of guys who've released some excellent stuff, but there's too
many people in this group with their head too far up Autechre's arse
to even consider anything else worthy of a spin on the decks.

What about their remix of Bjork's 'All Is Full of Love'? Or the Aemic
'Aleph' 12-inch? (Okay, so it's Fakesch and Estermann, but it's close
enough.)
Having said that, I've always preferred Fakesch's solo efforts to his
stuff with Funkstorung. I stand by my assertion though that
Funkstorung *do* sound like Autechre -- for good and bad.
