In among the lovely reviews of compressors &c. in the latest issue of Sound on Sound is an interview with Autechre. I've only skimmed through it but there are some interesting insights. This morning I listened to last night's Mixing It, the final track of which was Sqpr's Massif. Mark Russell prefaced it with a little story about how he'd been 'browsing around the internet' and found that Jenkinson had a fanatical following in America, particularly in California...Well, I allowed myself a little smirk. The Fresh phenomenon touches even the rarefied heights of Radio 3. I'm pleased to add my praise to that already accorded the new Mouse on Mars _Instrumentals_ release - definitely darker than _Autoditacker_ but no worse for that. Can anyone advise me whether I should go to see Roni Size perform tonight? Is the live experience much better than the album (which from my very limited exposure sounds rather tepid)? adam
