Err, I can't listen to the record and not think Autechre, both for
the type of sounds employed, track structure, etc. I really like it,
and I imagine I'll be putting the CD into heavier rotation than any
recent autechre record.
If poeple don't want people to mention th Ae-word with respect to their
music, they should avoid sounding like them. Jake Mandell would probably
acknowledge that Autechre's sound is an influence on him. Why wouldn't he?
I acknowledge their influence on my stuff. Maybe I phrased it in a flippant
way, but no reason to get your knickers in a twist.
