Who says the genre is being led by the new kids? Sure, I admit there is some
really great stuff out there and an enormous amount of it, but the day that
Autechre becomes obsolete or unimportant is still a long way off.
Secondarily, I think it is appropriate to compare new releases to Autechre
because they set the standard years ago with Tri Repetae and Incunabula and
all the rest of 'em. And besides, I reckon the majority of electronic music
fans out there, and certainly the vast majority of those on this list have
at least heard or are quite familiar with those albums.
Someday there will be a new standard and Ae won't be as "important" as they
are today, but let's not be too hasty.
New topic:
Does anybody know the venue for the Phthalocyanine show this Saturday in LA?
There's all sorts of noisy dj's and artists on the bill, he's just the only
one I could remember.
Thanks.
