Autechre is streaming the upcoming EP L Event over the next 24 hours via their website, and for the occasion Sean Booth and Rob Brown throw a real monkey wrench into the system. Follow the above link and you will find yourself in an alternate and hacked web universe. Sure, everything begins rather innocently. After the click I was greeted by a Yahoo log-in page–mine even had a Progressive ad with the ubiquitous Flo on it. I could hear the severely skewed beat logic of L Event‘s initial track “tac Lacora” playing, but no media player was visible so I closed the page and the audio disappeared. Not the desired result I hit the link once more and the the music and the log-in page reappeared. Hmmm, what to do next…I suggest you follow the link yourself and find out!
L Event is due out October 29th via Warp Records, and the track listing will be:
01_ tac Lacora
02_ M39 Diffain
03_ Osla for n
04_ newbound
