After fifteen years, Autechre still manage to surprise and inspire. On Quaristice , Sean Booth and Rob Brown turn their back to the ultra precise soundscapes that have defined their work in recent years and focus instead on a much more spontaneous and direct sound, developed from their live sets. Mark Flanagan talks to Sean Booth about how the band’s live sound has infiltrated their studio work, how him and Rob work together, what they think of live bootlegs, and being Myspace’d. Quaristice will be your ninth album released on Warp, since you debuted with Incunabula nearly fifteen years ago, and it is also marking the end of the longest hiatus between releases, with the last output being Untilted in early 2005. Were there any significant factors for the longer interval, and does this suggest a change in pace?

Although undoubtedly the best compilation of eighties music I've ever found, the track lisitings are not the same as Amazon state. On disc 1, we have no Haircut 100, but instead Marilyn's "Calling Your Name" - I suppose Marilyn was typical of the eighties scene, but he was also a pretty lame one-hit wonder. Still, Haircut 100 turn up on Disc 2.
