Autechre is an enigmatic and groundbreaking electronic music duo from the UK, consisting of Rob Brown and Sean Booth. Since forming in 1987, Autechre has been at the cutting edge of the IDM (Intelligent Dance Music) movement, pushing the boundaries of electronic sound with their complex and abstract compositions. The duo is known for their experimental approach to music production, often featuring intricate rhythmic patterns, unorthodox sound design, and exploratory structures. With a career spanning more than three decades, Autechre has cultivated a devoted following and has been associated with the influential record label Warp since their early releases.

Their foray into long-form releases was underscored by the expansive "NTS Sessions" series in 2018, offering a deep dive into their sonic world with over eight hours of music broadcast as part of a residency on the online radio station NTS. This massive undertaking revealed the depth and breadth of Autechre's musical vision, showcasing a blend of ambient, techno, and glitch aesthetics. The duo's relentless creativity is further exemplified by their albums "SIGN" and "PLUS," which were both surprise-released in 2020, adding to their esteemed catalog that continually challenges and redefines the parameters of electronic music.
