as for "inventive," well, the IDM list be damned, they pretty much defined how IDM has sounded for the past 4 years or so by dint of every semi-talented derivative jacking their style (phoenicia, entire schematics roster, everything i've heard on musik aus strom, especially the horribly derivative but not even close to the mark flagship duo funkstorung, etc, etc). their fault or their misfortune, you be the judge.

but in the last 6 months i've begun to change my mind, and i'm beginning to really love some of what they do (most of LP5, a lot of Chiastic Slide, and Clichi Suite are beautiful records i think).
it seems strange that it too such a long time for me to really like them, but then i did that with piano magic, happy mondays and tom waits too, and i love 90% of all their stuff too.
got tri repetae recently, but having difficulty getting into that one so far.
saw them at Brixton Fridge the other week, and they were excellent. every track seems to start off so uninviting, but gradually becomes wonderful
so, i think i'd head towards classic really

Seems a little odd not to include the Seefeel or Beaumont Hannant mixes of Basscadet, but maybe that can be justified. Putting "Anvil Vapre" before "Garbage" seems like flat-out bad sequencing.

you jest of course but just to be sure, it's probably in the auditorium as the divine comedy's show has exactly the same capacity. but maybe they're playing in the car park too.

I was in my morning meeting when the tickets went on sale, if I hadn't been looking at twitter at the same time I'd have had no idea, thanks warp and autechre mailing lists! I got in the queue and as soon as I got to the front my name was called in the meeting. 'Er, just buying tickets for my favourite band!' - 'Is it autechre?' - 'Yes' - 'Oh I was going to get some!' - 'Me too!'. We all got some but too late for stalls or mid circle.

Ha, that's actually fascinating to consider. I imagine the vast majority of Autechre discourse is online, lol, but assuming a bunch of Autechre fans ever got together to talk Autechre in real life, how would they even go about doing it when half the tracks are unpronounceable?

From 1997 to 2010 if I found anyone who genuinely liked Autechre I was shocked and made a new friend immediately. Now it seems they're everywhere. Last time I went to a show (2015?) it was sold out and was shocked at the reasonable m/f ratio. Love that they've found a new generation of fans and seemingly are making their best music now. One of the few aspects of this timeline that give me hope
