Guest fucktechre Posted October 30, 2014 I was playing LCC when my dad was in the same room and he gave one of the generic "sounds like the disc is skipping" comments. Oh well... Heh. I know this is an AphexTwin story, but the first time I listened to Selected Ambient works the cd was skipping the whole time and playing in fast-forward. I only realized that on the 2nd listen. Haha. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest fucktechre Posted October 31, 2014 QUOTE (HWNDarkside @ Jun 19 2009, 11:24 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Lol at making his 2 years old son listen to autechre: the little gut is gonna have some hell of a musical education. I think I'll be making the same, but I have to procreate first. Btw, do you guys listen to ae while making love? Even for a fan that must be disturbing. I bought a pair of studio headphones after WARP25 and was listening to the remastered recording of the set with my eyes closed on my lover's couch when she decided it would be a good idea to... yow. I was sober but I'll tell ya it was better than music + MDMA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
markedone 83 Posted November 1, 2014 (edited) I introduced my girlfriend to Autechre this year, and since she's studying abroad in Europe, she is going to see them live at Simple Things festival in Glasgow tomorrow. Its been my dream to see them live for close to a decade, but they never come to america.wait thats not a funny story...

Or ae could've agreed to do everything by majority vote and then veto afxs shitty ideas. Edited November 4, 2014 by th555 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest fucktechre Posted November 10, 2014 Good morning lol! I just got a new Android phone and of course I set every ringtone possible to an Autechre track and well, something funny and awesome just happened. :-) My iShitPhone started it's morning alarm, just making a deep rhythmic vibration on my wooden desk, and then a few moments later my Android phone started playing Treale, from Oversteps. Turns out it sounds fucking amazing even with the vibrate rhythm "off". Ha! At first I was "D'oh!", morning gotta wake up, and a moment later I'm dancing to a smartphone remake of the 'chre. Oh the joy! Damn I love Awe-tech-re. Also added 'Autechre' to my dictionary. A phone auto-completing Autechre, now that's smart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll set my wakeup alarm to Ventolin! Ahem... I just played 2.5 seconds of it on Youtube and pressed ctrl+w almost immediately. Maybe not Ventolin. Anyways, hmm now I'm curious about the repercussions. I don't imagine I could have a crappier day because I started with a jolt. Maybe it'd put a spring in my step, make me extra cheery. I'm confused. Edited November 10, 2014 by fucktechre Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
