okay. This is kinda funny. I was listening to (or rather i was being made to listen to) the toronto "new rock" station today and they played the new Nine Inch Nails single "The Day The World Went Away" (I'm fuzzy on how i feel about this one...maybe it's because i haven't listened to NIN in several years, but i dunno). After they played it the guy started talking about Nothing Records and decided to list some of the talents signed to it. Of course he mentioned Autechre. Now * I * always thought it was pronounced AW-tek-er. Everyone i know who knows Autechre pronounces it that way. The radio talk guy pronounced it aw-TESCH-ruh. I started to laugh derisively, but then it occured to me that i may be laughing in ignorance. I know this has probably been asked a million times before, but just how IS Autechre pronounced? -n
