About this item

Alongside fellow electronic mavericks and Warp Records stable mates Aphex Twin and Boards Of Canada, Autechre stand out like supernovas amid one of music's customarily starless constellations. There are few artists operating in contemporary music whose work could be accurately described as pioneering, but this electronic duo is one such outfit. Their's is music that, on first listen at least, appears to be without influence, a rich hermetic sound world that is a law unto itself, adhering only to the constraints of its own internal logic. It's a dense yet elegantly expansive work that ripples with some of the duo's key signatures - epileptic rhythmic counterpoints, spiralling melodic cells and immense tectonic shifts in the low end - but it also hits straight between the eyes with a raw, almost live-in-the-room immediacy.
