Hmmm - bit of a difference of opinion at the 10-1 slot, Geoffrey. Obviously the snootier elements will sniff at the "predictable" Ae discussion - that's fine. Ever since I saw them live in November '93, Autechre have been one of my favourites, and the new stuff takes them onto a higher level still. I make no apologies for praising their music. There's instant satisfaction if you want it, but so many elements and so much craft upon repeated concentrated listening. It seems to me there's a palpable creative will at work, a single-mindedness which is apparent throughout their output. Yes - I very much like Envane. Don't be put off, Booth/Brown fans. adam OnBefore - Warm Data - thanks, CiM.
