A Guide to AUTECHRE

Quite opposite from the venue Autechre played in Oslo tonight then. Complete darkness from beginning to end. Here’s a nice pic from the gig:

The rule of thirds would have magnified the shot, too bad.

Hoping for the same view at Vega in Copenhagen! How was the gig?

I don’t know Autechre that well, and have only heard parts of their release catalogue. Used to listen to Amber ages ago, and parts of the NTS sessions among other things. So I wasn’t really sure what to expect. It was a physically impressive gig, massive, massive beats. In the long run it felt a bit monotonous for mye taste, an ambient break or two from the onslaught of staccato drums and granular sizzle would have been nice. I can still feel the gig in my chest and head :wink:

Thanks! Sound pretty good from the description! :wink: Last time they were in Copenhagen it was pretty droney and abstract, and while impressive, I had a difficult time getting into it properly. Looking forward to massive beats on Sunday! :cloud_with_lightning:

Oslo Bootlegs are sublime.

Makes me feel defeated I work for days on a 20 minute sequence of patterns.
They churn out an hour of awesome new body/mind music every gig.

Edit: I guess they have developed their live system for 30 years…:+1:

Copenhagen tonight.

Support act was pretty impressive. Autechre’s first half was very reminiscent of Move of ten / Oversteps.
