Oop, didn't reply all... Yeah, the set was probably somewhere around 45 minutes. Percussion that sounded like it was trying to break the speakers (in a good way), I think there were some dudes up front trippin' on one substance or another that freaked out on it; one holding his ears in pain, another with his back leaned up on the speakers the whole time, another hopped on stage and got the boot. Couple of idiots who didn't understand the "no flash photography" rule and one guy right behind me who kept screaming a song request at them every break. I think he smoked a joint finally and it shut him the fuck up. People were pretty excited, lots of cheers and whistles between songs. Yes, there was a distinct set of sounds and breaks between each song, and from what I understand from interviews, one is more rhythm and percussion oriented, while the other plays with patches and synths. All in all, they kept me vibrating n' moving. Date: Sun, 18 Oct 2015 17:19:16 -0400 Subject: Re: Well just got back from Autechre...

I remembered them being more fluid with parts last time I saw them. This time there seemed to be distinct sets of sounds and the changes between them sometimes quite abrupt. Wish they played longer than the hour they did in Brooklyn. On Sun, Oct 18, 2015 at 5:34 AM, Jorge Rojas <redcoqui@hotmail.com> wrote: They played at least an hour and a half in miami.

In this case, what does a "set was perhaps a bit short"? Did they play less than 40 minutes?

Set was perhaps a bit short, but for having waited 17 years, I found it worth it regardless. Highlight of the evening goes to the face-down body I saw in the middle of Colfax on my drive home, that was in all likelihood dead. -- --- http://twitter.com/esaruoho http://lackluster.bandcamp.com
