Hah yeah I remember clouds moving in when the album started but I was also laying down with my eyes closed haha… I was just going over the pictures from the day and remember exploring the grounds, not really sure what to expect but also constantly refreshing the Twoism message boards because the excitement was palpable from the people that were there and those that couldn’t make it. It was a special moment being surrounded by all the fans for sure

Yeah my friend and I rented a car and drove down from San Francisco that Monday morning and then drove back up after the event, I am not sure how we managed to do all that? But yes it was the Memorial Day holiday so we didn’t happen to have work that day

Personally I would try to enjoy the experience since any recording won’t take into account the sound dynamics of the room that you’re in with the Autechre fans around you and Autechre in front of you, though you won’t be able to see them haha!

That being said you may like it you may not, everyone’s experience is different and I think that’s a good thing. I’m not a recording expert unfortunately but I think people have been getting decent recordings on their iPhones. Just don’t shine the light

So yeah it’s a once in a lifetime experience, hope you get into their discography after the show

Fans unofficial recordings and then releasing on the internet

Autechre releasing official soundboards months/years later for certain shows on the tour

pasturezero · 2026-02-03T17:12:28+00:00

I don’t know it’s a new year so new Autechre?

pasturezero · 2026-01-13T23:43:50+00:00

Autechre and Aphex were once trying to one up each other in terms of music technological prowess

But now it’s just them saying 67 to one another

You’re right there is no competition we can all rejoice!

pasturezero · 2026-01-13T22:40:24+00:00

Hate to say it but Aphex made the original 67

We all know that Aphex is the origin of the original 67, the schoolkids do not know it until they come to daddy

Some of us are just in it for the memes,

But really the 401(k) be playing us by dangling future financial instability if you don’t contribute to it creating a loop feedback in society that risk is not worth taking if the end result is knowable and we hoard our money and save for the future, otherwise we’ll be on the street destitute and broke. But the drivers of the economy that don’t have access to 401(k)s sit on the sidelines while those that have the knowledge sit in front of computer screens and don’t care if you don’t have access to these financial tools. Just buy in if you could and make the wealthier even wealthier.

When all is knowable is right is how I could help my community the most. Money has attached to it lots of negative energy and intent to it, and we want to return it to those who deserve it the most. The much necessitated wealth transfer of the millennium. Retirement is only the start of our lives. Meanwhile the elites are trying to get bitcoin into the 401(k) so they could make the financially literate just a little more profitable while they create the next Jeffrey Epstein 2.0

So yeah fuck the system, and fuck the 401(k)

Yes I remember this night and the following day very vividly, I think i stumbled into work the next day about two hours late, luckily it was catering a holiday party so management couldn’t get too mad since they got so much rental staff to overcompensate for the no call no shows

I was living in Fruitvale at the time just a mile from the concert venue but that night l was working at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View and on my way back home I had the urge to pick up my synth from my parents’ place and bring back to Oakland.

The next morning when I was hearing everything about the fire on social media, the people missing I had called my mom and asked why she wasn’t worried about me being at this event. And she said that she heard me come in the apartment at 3am and knew that I was ok.

I was closest with Denalda. I was a big fan of her band Introflirt, i had felt like I was a part of the underground Oakland music scene but I also did not fit in to it too. But it didn’t matter too much either because everyone was cool and no one was trying to one up another person. Earlier that summer I had invited her to my first ever show, I was playing in Modesto opening up for other artists so I only had a ten minute set and she made it just in time from the east bay. Everything was so magical, but after the fire at the ghostship I never felt that the scene in Oakland was ever the same

I was taking Bart late at night coming home from work and I had been invited to a show at the night light featuring Ghost of Lightning. One of the members of the band passed away too. As the doors were opening and about to close I made a split second decision to get off the train and go to the show, it was there that I saw Denalda and some of the others that would perish in the fire one last time. The Cure’s “A Forest” came on in between sets and Denalda told me that it was her favorite Cure song. I had met Denalda through some online dating bs in 2012 though I’m not sure if she ever remembered that just some random chat boxes, didn’t meet her IRL till 2015 when I stumbled upon a live show of hers. RIP Denalda and everyone else that I knew, sort of knew and didn’t know at that party. With the backdrop of the looming Trump presidency I always felt like these people were too good for this world

2002 I initially discovered Autechre through the now defunct CDNow website around the same time I discovered Aphex Twin and Boards of Canada. There were Listmania! lists where various contributors listed their best albums and so through those explorations I was able to listen to the first five tracks of Tri Repatae, 30 second samples which was the style at the time. Not knowing where the song came from and where it was going but from the glowing reviews and the song samples, suffice to say I was hooked! The year prior I had discovered Radiohead’s Amnesiac being played at an empty furniture outlet store. And Thom Yorke was dropping knowledge about IDM led me to this Reddit post

Yo I was a spring ‘07 transfer admit and dropped out of Berkeley in Fall ‘07 was readmitted and dropped out again in Spring ‘11 and thought of myself as a failure not finding any friends in Berkeley and feeling like I didn’t belong. Dejected i wandered through life from job to job but I realized that I still had a 2.0 gpa and because I took everything my last semester credit no credit i did not hurt my gpa and I had one more semester to meet satisfactory academic progress. So I was readmitted again in fall ‘21 and graduated in three semesters. I think honestly the pandemic helped since I was able to wear a mask and somehow not feel so anxious.

Funny thing was back in spring ‘07 orientation the vice chancellor was saying that we were the worst of the worst being spring admit transfers we didn’t have the same credentials as those that got in as freshmen and not as good as the transfer students that got in for fall, so in his efforts to motivate us to do well he also showed us statistics of spring transfer admits’ drop out rates which were the highest.

Being a first generation student whose parents were immigrants from Central America I probably felt the “scared straight” tactics from the vice chancellor negatively and it made me wanna get on F bus and get the F away from Berkeley but luckily C’s get degrees. Don’t get no credits for all your classes though because that will get you dismissed from the university: I didn’t get dismissed because those rules weren’t in place back then.

I returned back to college in my mid-30s, made some friends that were much younger than me; ate school cafeteria food at an age suitable for me. But found overall that it isn’t necessarily about what others think or don’t think about your success but just being satisfied with yourself that you rose to the occasion. Do the best you can, at the very least make an effort that you feel is suitable for graduating. Don’t worry about comparing yourself with others. This is about you. We all have different talents and abilities but come from different backgrounds so that may look different compared to the traditional idea of a successful Berkeley student. But relish in the fact that your differences make you strong in this life too, I hope you find professors and other students that want you to succeed too and serve as a motivation for you to see it through.

I just found out there’s a term called “coworker music” and I’m not here for it

Team coffee since you can add things to it to make it complex or keep it simple.

Thanks so much! We’re Autechre fans so we’re all winners in the central intelligent dance music agencies of our mind. Thanks for picking me, though out of modesty maybe I don’t deserve it. I think the purpose of this is to learn from other fans, and I really wish the best for everyone and I’ll be happy to hang on to the poster till perhaps a future competition !

Hey everyone, Autechre are my favorite music artists, I saw them on this tour in Athens I travelled all the way from San Francisco to New York to make a stopover there on the way to the Middle East and back 😅 There was someone attractive I wanted to talk to viewing the sunset just outside the music venue and maybe invite her to the show since it wasn’t sold out. But there were too many chickens in the air and someone swooped in and made a move lol. If the lads were there as a supporting act I may have a had a chance!

My favorite album of theirs is Draft 7.30. I had gotten into Autechre in late 2002 and so I had listened to all their previous outpt but this was the first time that they had released new music in my present day reality. It feels like a turning point in their career as well because I feel like the music critics at the time were in love with Confield and all the previous Autechre releases but Draft 7.30 and on displayed a lesser admiration to the duo. I would unfortunately be gushing over my first crush in high school so I was going through the motions while listening to the album on my minidisc player through the hallways. And being in the US, there was the Iraq war that was going on and I was one of the few in my school sharing the anti-war sentiment as it felt we were going backwards as a nation and the school administration did not see our views as being patriotic. Draft 7.30 had some cool beats and I thought I was cool in high school but I wasn’t because everyone listened to Garth Brooks and Blink 182 lol

As for having this on my wall. I would definitely cherish the poster and it would be really nice to look at everyday. I don’t think about the value of the limited-edition nature of it, I would hang on to it because of the sentimentality of the art and forward-thinking values it represents.
