  1. You are aware of the fact that people were making their own hardware and software for automatic music production before Ae, right? So if we are gonna be honest Ae's approach is also not (that) special.

  5. sign/plus review in croatian newspaper lol: https://www.jutarnji.hr/kultura/glazba/izmedu-musique-concrete-i-eksperimentalnog-techna-za-setnju-novim-zagrebom-15033498 google translate: "The Manchester duo Autechre began their career in 1987 under the influence of Cabaret Voltaire, Throbbing Gristle and Kraftwerk to gain the aura of avant-garde techno artists in the 90s; one would also say terrorists given the radicalism of their music. Two weeks apart, the albums “SIGN” and “PLUS” now offer two sides of their aesthetics. The first, conditionally speaking more melodic and ambient. And another, more rhythmic and fragmentary. On "SIGN" they allow you to float and float before being pressed by coarser and harder synthesizer structures, while on "PLUS" they immediately shock you like an ice-cold shower on sun-burned skin. I’m not going to say that Rob Brown and Sean Booth had sadomasochism in mind as they created tapes for “SIGN” and “PLUS” that are instructive to listen to alternately or one after the other to get a complete impression, but they are definitely not easy to listen to. On the contrary, they require engagement and concentration, and I personally find it interesting to walk through the architecture and urbanism of New Zagreb with the Autechre matrices because they are abstract sound sculptures, between musique concrète and experimental techno and algorithmic combinations of rhythms and melodic intrusions. The enigma is how Autechre managed to survive with such music, and "SIGN", close to the Top 40 best-selling UK albums, surpasses "PLUS" for my taste."
