	*Autechre mentioned two major arguments they've had in a Clash Magazine interview. The first was in 1989 where Ged's tape deck got ruined due to one of their tapes, leading them to blame each other before settling the damages between each other. The other was during some live show in Japan, miscommunication by Rob caused Sean to abruptly lash out at him.<ref>https://www.clashmusic.com/features/autechre-interview/</ref>		*Autechre mentioned two major arguments they've had in a Clash Magazine interview.

	*After a German festival got cancelled due to bad weather creating muddy grounds and flooding, Autechre alongside Boards of Canada broke into a trailer to steal champagne. After the raiding, Sean got so drunk that he tried to tackle Mike Paradinas, who was otherwise actively avoiding getting any mud on him, into the mud.<ref>https://www.rollingstone.it/musica/interviste-musica/autechre-niente-di-piu-umano-dei-computer/424382/</ref><ref>https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1XAizLmKun4yF6oBVUhIrewYN-ZiY_9ORckmT-hF93Ho/edit#gid=0&range=D99</ref><ref>https://bocpages.org/wiki/Warp_Factor_Ten<!-- they have both scans and original text, dk how to cite a mirror --></ref>		*After a German festival got cancelled due to bad weather creating muddy grounds and flooding, Autechre alongside Boards of Canada broke into a trailer to steal champagne.

	*During a show, Sean's vodka-covered hands caught on fire from his R8 going alight. His attempt to clap it out caused the audience to start clapping, ~~and also~~ making some set their hands on fire "as some kind of tribute".<ref>{{Cite AAA doc\|809}}</ref>		*During a show, Sean's vodka-covered hands caught on fire from his R8 going alight.

	*A few times during shows somewhere between 1996-2002, they compensated for their laptops failing and thus the show falling silent by letting a Minidisc shuffle sounds to fill the space, although Sean notes that the audience caught on quickly.<ref>{{Cite interview\|page=Elektron Stories: Sean Booth, 2006\|quote='''Oh. Did everything go completely silent on stage?''' A few times, yeah. Some nights we would have backup in the form of a bunch of sounds on a Minidisc player shuffling randomly, but you could only get away with it for a couple of minutes before people started shouting.}}</ref>		*A few times during shows somewhere between 1996-2002, they compensated for their laptops failing and thus the show falling silent by letting a Minidisc shuffle sounds to fill the space, although Sean notes that the audience caught on quickly.<ref>{{Cite interview\|page=Elektron Stories: Sean Booth, 2006\|quote='''Oh.
