At this point I just have to quote the Nothing release sticker that 
came on the shrinkwrap of Ae5 :

"It's a bloody miracle that Sheffield duo Autechre have any fans at 
all ... they seem to revel in making life as difficult as possible for 
themselves whenever possible ... their uncompromisingly 
experimental stance has become a rallying point for those who still 
believe it's alternative music's duty to explore uncharted territory 
whatever the perils."
                                                                        >>> NME
