    I don't necessarily think it's strange, but I am going to Google News a couple of times a day looking for them ?  I wish that full two-hour conversation for NYT would be released, of course. I tweeted kudos to the interviewer & enquired about it, but that unsurprisingly didn't garner a reply.

    Maybe it'll come out later, or after something we don't know about.....

  2. Sooooo,

    I grew up in a town called Rotherham, the next town on from Sheffield......

    When I was in school, aged 14, I had no interest in music as such, pop music in the UK was terrible (around the time of BROS...ugggh), then I heard Master of Puppets, started growing my hair long, and became obsessed with metal from then on.

    Fast forward a few years, and I was smoking a lot of weed with my mates, and my music taste had mellowed a little. We used to sit in my mates car out in the Peak District and listen to John Peel.

    One night he had Autechre on doing one of his famous sessions. I couldn't believe what I was hearing, totally blew me away.

    The next day, I went out and bought Anti EP on cd, and I was hooked. 

    Found out they were on Warp records, and they lived in Sheffield.

    Ended up seeing them live loads of times in some really mad places, like Halloween 1999 when they DJ'd at The Grapes on Trippet Lane, Sheffield. Sat next to Sean and had a long chat with him. It was just before he left Sheffield for Suffolk. There were about ten people there that evening.....

    The strangest thing for me is that the Warp shop was the best place to buy metal albums in Sheffield. We used to go in there and dismiss all the bleepy noises they used play in the shop as towny dance rubbish......
