Autechre - Live - Quirky - Brixton - 16. 06. 1994

[@StaleTale]

This video should go into a museum vault somewhere to be stored for future generations. It makes me feel somewhat nostalgic for something that I never experienced. Amazing.

[@barbarasadowy4768]

This is pretty much how it looks like. Also no big crowd for those guys at this time. We were always a small crowd. Completely misunderstood from mega rave. They music was always in obscure rooms like early on or late on the night.

[@dr.papadopolis7171]

In 50 years

[@stacyOyo]

Maybe we did, but don't remember :o

[@mqsv]

@@barbarasadowy4768 Ooh, tell me more! This is fascinating history about early Autechre

[@cosmowerkstapes]

maybe a good idea to internet archive the video. it will be freely downloadable there. then it will outlast the social platforms.

[@fleaship6134]

This is what I loved about old AE, those characteristic frenetic beats coupled with warm analogue pads, something they moved away from in the following century, but their back catalogue still sounds sounds like honey.

[@syesepoh]

Their old stuff will always be my go to. Their later material not so much...

Early Autechre is such a trip. Even then you could tell they wanted to escape into the unknown of electronic music. Total pioneers in their field.

this is quite seriously my favourite video on the internet. really happy it exists.

Gold stars to the cameraman/uploader. The sound quality is incredible for a camera mic. You've captured a very pure experience. Brought back memories of Megadogs and early Warp gigs in the North East. May the four people who gave this a thumbs down never achieve full enlightenment and shit their pants in public.

[@cc-hl9yo]

bit harsh like wont be no like if there wasnt dislike let them be

[@sawtoothiandi]

[@martinirons-roberts5211]

So glad I was at this night, brings back so many memories. The early 90's were best time for techno and electronica and this was my favourite venue in London until they turned it into a church! Big industrial lift took you down into the basement, queuing around the block to get in just served to build the excitement. Oh happy day's.

[@MBLiveChannel]

Насколько же Autechre были божественны до 96-97-х годов!!! Это была одна из лучших групп в истории электронной музыки - они вобрали в себя всю суть серого неба 90-х, когда мир менялся в новую эпоху, подобной которой раньше никогда не было. Это потом пришло разочарование и понимание, что будущего не будет. Что человечество погружается в потребительский сон, променяв космос на гаджеты, но тогда это была эпоха новых технологий, новых нравов, пропитанная особой магией. Prodigy, X-files, 486 DX2-66, Autechre, ... // Before 96-97 Autechre were on of the world top electronic bands. They accumulated innovative spirit of that age of 90s. Time which never was before and unlikely will be sometime later.

[@AlexanderK24A3]

[@SimonGrowl]

Right at the end of the video, the comment, "Man, these guys are good"... I wonder if the guy saying this realises just how prophetic his words turned out to be...

[@naoexistimos777]

How is saying something is good in the present tense "prophetic"?

[@sawtoothiandi]

@@naoexistimos777 prophecy is not fortune-telling, prophecy is the awareness of where 'it's really at' and whats truly going on in the present! To see the inchoate seeds of future possibilites!

[@michaelkayser4194]

9:40 makes you wonder if BoC attended this gig and was like "oh. *oh*."

[@hoppy303]

The best part of this gig is from 0:00 to 46:46. They don’t make them like this anymore!

[@OmegaSwitch]

This is the most factual statement that can be made relevant to this video.

[@NEOREV_MUSIC]

I see what you did there

[@Alga-team]

[@konsumer]

[@crzldesign231]

I disagree. I only liked three parts of this mix. The beginning, middle and the end.

[@ceeteeuk]

this is the best thing ever uploaded to youtube :) This shit defined an entire genre of music. So many imitators, none come close to early Ae. Fucking genius.

[@superchecco81fuck]

***** What the hell does that mean?

[@plastiqeverything]

***** No. Please refrain from commenting on IDM videos. You make my brain hurt. Aphex Twin(and all his aliases) towers over Autechre if not equal to them. Ae = AFX = BOC

[@derdingobaron]

My first thought was that this music is HEAVILY inspired by Aphex Twin...Maybe another case of "inventor" and "innovator". But this liveset is heavenly!

[@ceeteeuk]

Dude, this was 1994, autechre are the inventors

[@FreshLyte]

***** Towers? No no. That is too strong a word for that comparison.

[@thomasley4006]

Saw them once towards the end of the 90s. Their sound was already much more experimental than that. I always loved their early stuff, but kept with them until the early 2000s when they left our solar system towards music you couldn’t comprehend anymore.. 😉

[@vignetique]

My favourite AE material. I wish they released a soundboard recording of this. Those were the last best years before they switched to more experimental stuff.

[@sam_millen]

Sean was asked if they had a soundboard of this gig on his recent Twitch AMA stream (30/07/22) - He said they don't have a recording, but he doesn't know if anyone else associated with the venue might have one.
