Greeting merry IDMer's!
I have plugged in a few revisions to my Ae website - there's a bit
of new content, some new links, and a few out-of-date links have
been updated or removed. The discogs also have more up-to-date info
in them, though I haven't done anything about the format :(
No response on my SKAMpler tracklisting query - anyone ???
but I should be getting a copy soon...
Second issue, I'm intending to put together a Autechre FAQ for
all those who don't have the energy to find out the stuff themselves.
Most of it will come from what I know and what I've read in their
interviews etc (quite a bit of potentially useful stuff in that
transcript of the recent SonicNet session for instance)
Anyway, here are my basic ideas for Questions. I don't have full
answers to all of them. All further suggestions are welcome.
Who are autechre
How do you pronounce Autechre and what does it mean
Why Gescom and Autechre, what's the difference
Who runs SKAM and what is the connection with Autechre
What about those track titles.
I heard Autechre play live and it was brilliant
- why aren't some of these tracks available.
What equipment do they use?
What do they sample to get those sounds?
I heard there was an Autechre Peel session - where can I get it.
I heard there was a RealAudio web broadcast - where can I get it.
I heard there was a CD of the RA broadcast - why wasn't it released.
I've never seen a copy of "Cavity Job"
- what's it like and how much should I pay
When are Autechre going to play live in my country/ state/ city/
village/ back garden?
I heard Chiastic Slide/ Tri Repetae /Motor EP / Gescom II and didn't
like it as much as Amber/ Incunabula /Tri Repetae / etc. Why? <ahem>
(alternative - I've got XXXX and I love it, what else do you recommend)
I can't get hold of XXXX. Where can I buy it?
I heard that "Flutter" on the Anti EP has non-repetitive beats
to make it legal under a new law in the UK. is this true?
I saw the video for "Second Bad Vilbel" on MTV and it's brilliant!
- where can I get a copy
How can I get in touch with Autechre
Is there an autechre mailing list (snail / email)
I heard there was a single released by mail-order. Is it still available
Where can I get my hands on Autechre t-shirts and Merchandise
thanks,
J
