I love Autechre, but it's pretty crazy stuff! It's a lot of blips and bleeps that are amazingly organized! I saw them in Chicago a few years ago and to be honest, it wasn't a nice experience. The place was waaayyyy too smokey and there were like 3 or 4 electronic artists that played ahead of them, so it was a long night. By the time they came on, I was already sick of idiots dancing with cigarettes in their hand, never bothering to look where they're waving them. Even though I managed to make my way up to the front of the stage, you couldn't even see what they were doing or see any of their gear. They just stood there at a table, smoked cigarettes, and fiddled around. I guess that's all you can expect from an electronic artist. It's about the music and not the visuals. However, Kraftwerk puts on a great show. They are on tour now and I can't wait to see them in June. Sorry, I guess this post got a little off topic!
