Background

Britronica Festival 1994 was organised by Nick Hobbs and Artem Troitsky.[1]

Initially Autechre and Ultramarine planned to play on April 15th at the Pilot club, but the PA equipment went missing.[1] Rupert Howe recalls heading to Autechre's room late night on April 16th, where he and a few other people joined Rob in watching a TV make "hallucinogenic patterns" with Rob saying "It's techno, this telly."[1]On April 17th, Autechre performed at Moscow's Palace of Youth (Kontsertnyy Zal Moskovskogo Dvortsa Molodezhi).[1]

Sean noted in the WATMM AAA that while the gig itself went well, the surrounding events encouraged them to not return to Moscow since then.[2] Both Richard D James (Aphex Twin) and Mark Pritchards got food poisoning and ended up being hospitalized, and Bruce Gilbert (of Wire) was thrown off the premises by security armed with Uzis.[2][3]

From recordings, "Lost" and "Djarum" were performed at the show.
