Autechre, Numbers, Art School, Glasgow, 1 Mar

Numbers' reputation continues to grow stronger, with recent appearances from Modeselektor, Feadz and DJ Funk, and now a performance from ground-breaking pioneers, Autechre. To promote the release of new album Quaristice, Autechre are hitting the road for a European tour. Their ninth album, due for release on 3 March, is certain to be a continuation of their experimental, glitchy form of electronica, for which their label Warp is widely associated with. With work that relies on complex rhythms and harsh beats, the duo have been compared to labelmates Aphex Twin and Boards Of Canada, but they maintain their own unique identity with their heavier, relentless style. It is guaranteed that this will be an intense sensory assault for those who looking for something a bit more interesting and challenging to make them move their feet. [Scott Ramage]
