LeeScratchPerry

I have a question also... are you still going to be working with Coil?

Autechre

Ill communication. One phone line on the Ferry the Capt had to use it. We could only contact when we reached land!

sfwd

(sfwd wants that mailorder 12" but knows not how...)

effervescant`slug

Sean & Rob - I've got a mad exeriment in synasthesia propagated by your delightful music that is going to arrive @ the ballroom sometime. (i.e., i'm sending you geezers a painting. look out.)

Autechre

Yes with Coil . Its taking awhile. But we want to work on it well.

IWe look forward top it!

LeeScratchPerry

Autechre, I was upset to hear that things havent been going to well with John Balance :( its quite sad... have you been in contact with him at all?

Autechre

Very little contact. We see him around London now & then.

sfwd

Is he still in hospital/rehab?

LeeScratchPerry

Autechre, thats a shame... I was thinking about sending him a message from the ELpH's :

Sonicmod

where in London do you live?

FReSH

autechre, whats going no with skam? no new records in a bit. btw, have you guys checked out that wicked illustrated discography on the net?

whats going ON with skam..

Autechre

We live in Shefeild North of England

effervescant`slug

Sean & Rob - I've got a question. Someone on idm noticed a while back that the cover art for envane = FLW's falling water. this is an interesting choice of a subject...how did you decide to use it? or was it the DR?

LeeScratchPerry

Autechre, hey have you been to the orbit in leeds lately?

Autechre

sfwd

Can't WAIT for the cd... also the v/vm cd!

Sonicmod

I am on no sleep whatso ever

* LeeScratchPerry warms up the knives

Autechre

Just the same as any other Wed sitting @ our computers.

SonicmodThanks babe

FReSH

Autechre, do you guys spend a lot of time on the net? what are you up to on it?

Autechre

Lotsa VVM stuff coming out soon.

VVm did a wicked live set Last Sunday!

sfwd

sent $ 4th World's way today =)

LeeScratchPerry

Autechre, [[List of Remixes#Merzbow - Ecobondage [Ending] AE Remix|I heard that you are releasing a track for a tribute to merzbow or something,]] can you tell us a little more about this? (or am I the only one not in the light about this?)

Autechre

We just spend leisure time on the net. To see what sgoing on out there with friends & the world.

FReSH

do you want to see a naked picture of bjork? :)

sfwd

Any chance of Ae live in California in the near future?

FReSH

hhehe.

Autechre

Right. Basically its an album of remixes by ourselves Panasonic, and alot of great other bands...

What again?

sfwd

hehehe...

FReSH

yes, come back to LA, that was a fucking wicked show at the trubadour. pissed all the ravers off...

Sonicmod

I noticed that you guys maintain your own site. I find that interesting. Most people rely on the record label to do that.

ta LeeScratchPerry

Autechre, cool i'm looking forward to it... have you been listening to much noise lately?

Autechre

No Cali concert expected soon. Sorry

FReSH

sure naked bjork: http://www1.linkonline.net/fresh/blackops.htm

LeeScratchPerry

Autechre, its the one he did with COCK ESP... on fusetron.... its nice, have you heard aube at all?

sfwd

Ae did you have any feelings about the ae_radio.ra file getting passed around and fans wanting to burn personal cds of the show?

M3GATR0N

how do you pr0n0unce autechre anyway????

Sonicmod

Do you guys record everything yourselves? Do you have your own studio?

FReSH

Autechre, tell me about the Gescom Schematic remixes? When are THOSE coming out...

Autechre

No not atall. If its how it will be on radio. People can do what they want with it. Radio is the least exclusive medium lately.

sfwd

Ae not so unexclusive if you live in US =)

Autechre

That will be out in quite a while yet Schematic remixes.

LeeScratchPerry

Autechre, have you had any contact with scorn since your remix on Ellipsis?

autechre, how come the radio mix cd was only distributed to press, etc. the people that care the least about it? fans were really trying to get their hands on those but were running into...

AutechreNo not really.

FReS

resistance from warp who didn't want them floating about.

will you make the radio mix cd's available to maybe the mailing list members?

sfwd

ya, that became a HUGE issue on the idm list

Autechre

Well thats because its strickly for radio.

*** Signoff: M3GATR0N ((signed off))

LeeScratchPerry

Autechre, heh.. ok... What do you think about all the tech steppy drum and bass stuff (u-turn etc), do you think its almost turning into something on the same mentalitiy as gabba?

Autechre

No I dont think it would . But we will consider it with future material.

FReSH

Please do, because i hate to see people getting taken for alot of money for no good reason.

Autechre

No I dont. I like the darker side, producers on U-Turn

Totally Fresh...

LeeScratchPerry

Autechre, ah ok... can you see yourselves writing drum and bass?

FReSH

Autechre, didn't you guys do your own remix of Planet Rock for your radio show?

Autechre

Peery, we never go for sucj straight forward format. we have many ideas.

LeeScratchPerry

Autechre, thats good to hear :

Autechre

We remix everything for the radio shows.

sfwd

AE What are you guys listening to most lately (aside from vvm)?

FReSH

the radio shows are a somewhat mysterious enterprise for those of us in the US. we only hear second hand reports and dodgy .ra's...

Autechre

Ummm, Tod Dockstader, Glen Velez, Atom Heart, Porter Rick, Schematic, Nature Records, and a number of others

Oh, and Gamlon from Bali!

effervescant`slug

Ae - what do you think of music being represented (interprated) visually? do you have any favorite artists currently? i know you said you were interested in the shape of a sound....

LeeScratchPerry

Autechre, you guys should work with nww...

sfwd

I actually emailed the radio station about buying tapes of the radio show, but never got an answer

Autechre

Whos Nww

Shustr

Nurse With Wound

sfwd

Sonicmod

I'm still curious how do you guys go about recording

Autechre

The show isnt on the air anymore I guess. Its sad due to advertising , it lost favor when the station got soft.

sfwd

worth more than three repeats, any day" - MUZIK

Autechre

Perry Oh, I reckon we would work w/NWW!

LeeScratchPerry

Autechre, mmm I think it'd be a beautiful collab indeed...

FReSH

hanging teddy bears....hmmm....i wonder if that is reffering to anyone :)

Autechre

For starters we press record

Shustr

:( radio stations have the same problems everywhere :(

sfwd

LeeScratchPerry

Autechre, do you guys use tape loops for any of your stuff?

Hi this is Shaun

LeeScratchPerry

Hello Shaun!

Shustr

Hi Shaun

Autechre

We use to use loops. We dont anymore, just digitally.

LeeScratchPerry

Autechre, tape loops are fun :

Autechre

FReSH

last time i was you, you had alot of stuff specifically written for the live show. are you still doing that?

i saw you...dah.

Shustr

Ae: I heard you use a computer to generate a track names. Is it just a hoax?

*** DJ (speakeasy@155.14.14.87) has joined channel #chillout

Autechre

How could you not take chances?

LeeScratchPerry

Autechre, haha, indeed.... do you sample much acoustic stuff for your work? Sonicmod

Perry. Ummm, not really we make sounds from other sounds.

Shustr

Ae: I used to do similar things by myself :)

LeeScratchPerry

Autechre, oh, I have a question for you... what is your opinion on the yamaha dx7?

sfwd

Ae Was wondering what your personal favorite Ae material is?

FReSH

holy fuck...i just got a HUGE package from rephlex....

brezovan

if i were making music i'd have my computer make up track names for me too :) i don't like labelling things

Autechre

DX7 is AWESOME!

Sonicmod

Do you find that the climate for elecrtonic music has changed with the success of Prodigy and the Chem Bros.(i.e. big label interest)

DJ

Autechre, are you guys going to release Chiastic Slide in the USA?

LeeScratchPerry

Autechre, dx7 is the shit man... heh, I have 3 of those fuckers... I love it :

Shustr

Ae: you don't sound much 'acoustic' though

Autechre

GLYpH

what prompted your friend to hook you up with Maerzbow? was it the reviews of Chiastic Slide that were compared to a more refined and controlled Merzbow?

i mean, i just find it a bit odd

No, it was just a mate, and we are into each others music. He sent us a DAT and we had fun working w. it.

DataSquid

AE: Whatever convinced you to come here and hang with a bunch of wanks like us? You say that you write music for yourself, what do you need our input for?

brezovan

LOL

sfwd23

Ae Is Skam basically just a collection of friends? Or did Skam contact artists/artists contact Skam?

FReSH

glitch

Autechre

Data.........We are giving all the input here

DataSquid

brezovan

glitch

We need more of Motor4...god what a greeeaaaat track! :)

LeeScratchPerry

Autechre, would you like me to send you a tape?

Autechre

Glitch, as k Source recs.

FReSH

autechre, do you guys ever listen to your own music? I mean to do you ever flip on one of your own records and just listen? which of them is your favorite?

Autechre

Brez....its not a project. Its just friends jamming.

sfwd23

Have you ever thought about making a weekly RealAudio radio show (I'll even host it for you !)

DataSquid

I gotta say that nothin beats Clipper, my fav track to date...

BernS

Autechre

Autechre Fresh....Our latest track not released yet.. Tewe

brezovan

Autechre

sfwd YES!

FReSH

your favorite always the lastest though?

Autechre

Glyph....Its a bit of an obvious choice

glitch

Ae, so what's up with the potential Coil remix/collab work?

Unferth

Isn't Tewe on Chiastic?

foss

why is it so hard to book you guys in the states?

sfwd23

It would reach LOTS of people (sound only ok, but good music can stand it)

DataSquid

AE: any tips for someone aspiring to set up a pirate radio station ;)

logik

and the AE/Download project for that matter.

bravopop

autechre, when doing a radio show, do you consider the music put forth for 'radio listening' needing different qualities than a puchased recording?

glitch

Yes....download and Coil!

Autechre

Un...Yes

Data... SHHHH, Dont tell many people

bravopop as you might only hear it once.

LeeScratchPerry

Autechre, is sheffield a hole?

sfwd23

brap@sonic.net if you ever need realaudio hosting =)

DataSquid

brezovan

DataSquid

Unferth

Hey Autechre, that last track on SKA07 is amazing. Did anything in particular inspire it?

brezovan heh

Autechre

Bravo....No. I understand what you mean. Some tracks dont fit for releases so we put hem to radio.

foss

Autechre

Hopefully dDetroit

GLYpH

DataSquid

Autechre
