wouldn't that make my opinion more valid then yours on this? since i am an
AE fan but have liked some and not liked some?
i mean, you insulted me... kind of, and then said that you're a fanboy... i
think it makes it hard to take your opinion on it seriously since apparently
if they just turned their max/msp patches on, left the room for an hour and
then released what came out you'd think it was great anyway?
like i said, it's not bad, and there are some brilliant moments, if you
really like autechre... case in point... you're going to like the album. but
it's not amazing and mindblowing...
