Yeh - dropping the mask nonsense was also a step forward.... one of his best traits is his gurning and enjoying his own tunage live!.. the irony of it given his talk of this newer stuff coming out of lockdown mindfullness!

Oh hiya - I think I remember you - we raved hard and yoou spotted "Oberlove" - FAB!

Nice interview with Minced Oath who supported Autechre Dublin back in Octover:

From the man himself via warp...here here Tom! For me, the lockdown of 2020 will always stand out as a remarkable time partly for the viscerality of its terrors, but also because of its novel, eerie, sublime silence. It afforded me (and no doubt other fortunate loners) a respite from the incessant distractions that can get in the way of important things such as doing nothing – or recording music. The cancellation of all live commitments meant the prospect of a year's worth of itineraries, airport security, hotels and no sleep was erased, and for some time I experienced a simple happiness not familiar in my adulthood. In a way it reminded me of being a child, where one knows big and awful stuff happens on the horizon but the current moment is a blissful sanctuary. Without customary interruptions, time elapsed differently: Dostrotime. I recorded extensively during that unusual period and went on to use some of that material as the basis for the rescheduled live shows of '21 &' 22. These events were remarkable for their tangible atmosphere of jubilation that lockdown was over and this album is indebted to the exhilaration of those shows. It is an attempt to capture the peculiarity of music catalysed by lockdown being part of the celebration of lockdown's demise. Tom.

Yeh even his damogen live sets were incredible and im not into that album - im looking at you Day For Night - tore it up! But fuck me his vic acid set in Primaversa 2022 was unreal.. relentless, pounding acid/jungle assault. As far as I can see he LOVES his USA outings - coachella vodka set, Boston "You posess the knowldedge venus17 set".. so crrossing my fingers for a US tour for you guys

After hearing the whole track "I AM down with the underground.... the hardest music on the motherfucking planet" Sign me up!

Lets see - getting Damogen vibes which ... well I only really liked live. Id be happy with continuation of BUaH sound but .... that was ceretainly no "go plastic" how dare you!

bingo

Black Summer - nothing can possibly beat that for a re-do of the zombie genre. Just relentless and damn amazing

My "mother-in-law" went and knitted me this "cover" for xmas.... unreal!!!

I think they're both perfectly complimentary with perfect casting and script and to continue the lifecycle schema of the alien was the clincher (its ALL of these things that every other film got really really wrong)

LOVE The Witch sooooo much - what an ending! ..............also Midsomer and Hereditery ...watched The Killer the other day too... passed-the-time

hmm.. grew up on the origional series which was amazing and got me into Japanese culture... then i read the James Clavel book it was based on whoch was great but THEN i read th actual biography of the real Samurai William whch was even more amazing and it really didn't need all the melodrama tbh. Im very skeptical of this and it looks all too slick/contrived. Let see...

Watched ep1 - very silly stuff and russel jnr aint no russel snr - wooden stuff and you got all this stupid music trying to build up tension

I dunno guys - Im feeling a release very soon...... we need some next level Vic Acid jungle ....yesterday!

Damn I missed the index sets - had tickets but wasn't arsed after a 3hr drive to Dublin and catchup with mates. From the opening ambient few mins to the quick beats drop, the scratch track and getting lost in the swirling treackly soundscapes then the - gonna say it squarepusher-style ending .. fucking hell

the old man lives in Paris - time for a visit April maybe!

Channel4 news seems balanced enough to me on this horrendous shit I'm rarely proud of irish political landscape and the bunch of chancers at the top but did feel an inkling of it on their calling out on the Israel geniocidal rampage at the moment, in a sea of european apologists

They brought their fechreing Ae game

Guys... 1hr30... we got the london scratching track.. after a no messing beat driven intro. All lulled into a false of security with london b style tempo before.. im not kidding a... relentless high bpm worthy-of-afx pounding assault. Next levelness

Ready for Dublin

Can you tell us what the hell its about as ive no clue? Who's Danny Rampling? whats hot encoder/hot fader mean?

wrt the David Lynch love - i recenlty rewatched Twin Peaks the Return and making in my mind their 2022 livsets the soundtrack to all the in-beteen dream locations - the purple sea, the lodges, the electical byways. Stunning sounds

Im only now getting around to listen to the 2022/23 live sets with just Milan/Athens just in the bag and .... my gosh Im utterly enthralled. Swirlling and syrupy... I actually ended the first listened parked at my country house after a late night car journey and when i exited the car at the end i was greeted with a cloudless/moonless night and massive starfield which hit me like a shockwave .. that and the embers of their sets still buring in my mind i felt electric. I had just read the recent interview too and .. given their love of David Lynch and my recent rewatch of Twin Peaks The Return I couldnt help relate the vibes of their music and that show.. meandering, out-of-place-and-time, nonlinear, electrifying, melencholicy, distrubing. Aestounding stuff - dozens more livesets to digest!
