München 26th September...

Hi there, im quite new to Autechre but enjoying the ride so far my favourites are Tri Repate and Plus... but also getting into Oversteps at the moment... I'm traveling down (from Schleswig-Holstein) to see them live for the first time in September staying for a few days any suggestion for interesting things to see or do in Munich to get me in the mood for seeing them? Also good places to eat always appreciated....and if anyone else fancies meeting up before or after the gig, get in touch.

"Like minded people" 🤔

Hi there, it's been fascinating to experience this sub' for the past few weeks, I am a long time fan for over 25 years (older guy) and contributing here (mostly my shoddy mixs and videos☺️) for longer than I care to remember...

I'm lucky to have got a ticket for one of the listening events and am really looking forward to the experience. One thing that I'm becoming more aware of is that this will be the first time since becoming a fan that I will be with other fans if the band, I mostly listen to the band alone, on headphones and rarely meet other fans IRL... it is going to be super interesting for me to see the diversity of interests, tastes and backgrounds that are there on 22 may, after TH was released there was a smattering of events in London, but I was to far away to attend... anyone else wondering how it's going to be / have any thoughts on how it will be to meet up with other "like minded people" 😎

Bars/Clubs in Berlin with a Geigling Vibe?

Hi, can anyone recommend any Bars or Clubs in Berlin where Geigling and similar music is played, am looking for a venue to debrief / chill/ dance after the BoC listening event in Silent Green... hope this is not a dumb or inappropriate question here ... thanks in advance 🙃

So I'm traveling to Berlin the day before and spending the day in the city, I saw a post suggesting this ruined Cold War listening post as a venue and thought a visit would make a great aperitif to the listening event that evening... very happy to have company if others are interested... T minus 17 days, 1 hour,20 mins and counting... 😄

One thing I really love, about BOC, is how they embody the concept of Hauntology in their music with degraded, hidden samples, old tech, tape hiss, crackle and filters, in this audio blog (from 2009!) Academic and music critic Adam Harper discusses Hauntology in music with examples from among others William Basinski, Ghost Box Records and BOC with an emphasis on MHTRTC, IABPOITC and of course Geogaddi ... Enjoy
