Queer.
LFO pointed me in the direction of Warp. When they released loads of shit I pointed myself in the direction of other things.

They released some pretty decent compilations of early bleep techno which I have (I think that was Warp anyway).

Me too.
Autechre vanished up their own arses. Started out making very melodic, crystalline, hip hop influenced electonics, descended into glitch for the sake of it, alienating shit.

Those fellas know their way around a melody fo sho.

I am reading this in the style of Jo Whiley

As if Jo Wiley has even the faintest idea who Autechre are.

Ooh, Push Button Objects, that takes me back.
Shit lineups though, you need to get down to InFest, that's proper electronic music, not that pretentious 'underground' shit that you listen to, purely because it's obscure.

It's obscure for a reason, fucknuts.

Warp lost their way when they started signing guitar bands.
LFO were great. Most of their acts were, some still are- Jamie Lidell, for example, is excellent.

What compilations are those? Artificial Intelligence?

Yer
Did you get any of those Warp 10 compilations? I have the remixes one, Mogwai covered Arcadian by Link. It's well good.

nah artificial intelligence 1 & II were my warp period

That's no bad thing.
Were you not into Boards of Canada and Plaid and that?
(, Thu 25 Apr 2013, 9:12, Reply)
well yeah, but haven't bothered with any warp compilations since artificial ii, not sure why

(, Thu 25 Apr 2013, 9:19, Reply)
I haven't kept up with Warp for a few years now.
Like I said, they lost focus when they started signing bands like Maximo Park. They nearly signed Mogwai when they left Chemikal Underground, I would have approved of that.

You into Seefeel? I've been digging them lately, they're vintage Warp.
