I listened to a bit on site, now waiting for my FLAC encoding to finish on the 24-bit wav files. The Dublin show, at least, sounds radically different from the earlier released live sets. I can definitely understand people not liking Autechre but they really are doing something no one else does, and if you get into it, it's musically compelling. I like to think that if I could work at it more or less full time, I could progress to the level of technical command of the tools, and make it come out as artistically compelling. If you listen to nothing else, listen at autechre.ws to the Dublin show. The thing about Autechre is that they really have focused almost exclusively on ultra-long-form compositions. The Dublin show is 82 minutes long (!) and to the extent there is repetition - beats, sounds, tones, it's continually changing in interesting ways.
