Can anyone explain the appeal of these guys to me? They seem to just splice together electric sound effects with no rhythm whatsoever.

>with no rhythm whatsoever
I only rly know trip but nigga wtf are you on about?
No OP, you're completely right.
Autechre records are purchased solely by bald men in expensive anoraks who would masturbate to a car alarm if it was re-mixed by a German.
Their music is an impenetrable curtain of misanthropic noise. Hopelessly pretentious. These menopausal electro-manglers’ refuse to bow to convention and produce anything of interest to anyone not either a) bald or b) German.
It bleeps. It skronks. It krrraaaanks. But mainly, it blows like a ruddy awful hurricane.
Remember, kids; if it sounds like a festering hillock of tune-shy bum-wank, it’s because it IS a festering hillock of tune-shy bum-wank. Avoid as you would a bald German.
i've listened to
>Incunabula

Listen to everything from them chronologically. Even their farts are something complex and intelligently crafted.

I really, really like this review. Mind if I save it?
>>70128182
do these assholes ever change? are they homeless?
>>70127973

they wouldn't save you if you were dying
>>70127757
it's the music that unaging machines would make to amuse themselves in the void
>>70128209

A fine example of quality journalism.
i met them once twas pretty cool
>>70128007
Why didn't you like Incunabula?
Reminded me of Ambient Works but more dissonant. 10/10 comfy album.
>>70128209
The man needs to pluck his eyebrows.
Me on the left.
>>70127757
rhythm is what they excel at and its the largest part of their music
>>70127757
No rhythm? They have some of the catchiest beats I've heard in the genre. I can list many artists that have more off rhythm patterns than them.
>>70127973
Is this a new copy pasta now
Because you are into memegenres and memeartists too much, if you had any experience with ambient techno this thread wouldn't exist
>>70127973
it's painfully obvious that you know nothing about synthesis

Probably the best review ever posted to /mu/ desu
i read that most of the time they just send midi files to each other and splice the best parts. they make everything in max
i used to hate their sounds and thought they were pretty grating. but after giving them some time and listening to them all th way through, I really started to absorb their sound and I found that really there is nothing else like it.
There's a solid structure behind everything and they seem to have total control over chaos and order when it comes to sounds.
they have their weak moments but when they shine, they shine very bright
>>70135295
Yeah no kidding. Their Chicago set was killer.

>>70130520
lol i really did meet them. they were nice, if not a little reserved. they're also super short - not much taller than me and i'm only 5'4.
