Autechre release their rare debut EP on vinyl, I continue to pretend I know things about Autechre

You’re a Tiny Mix Tapes reader. You assume we know everything about all the music you’ve ever heard of, along with all the music you haven’t heard of. This is a pretty good assumption, so keep assuming it. I have to deflate it a little, though. While I’m sure there are multiple people on staff extremely knowledgeable about legendary electronic act Autechre, I am not that person. Really, I pretty much exhausted my entire knowledge about Autechre in that last sentence. Actually, I am fairly sure they released a record called Confield once and now I have officially exhausted my knowledge base.

To me, it doesn’t mean a ton that FACT reports that the group is reissuing their debut EP on vinyl. But it’s a big deal to Autechre fans! The 1991 EP was released under the name Lego Feet (which is a very, very good name for a musical group and why would anyone change) and is very sought-after among fans of the group. On June 4, Skam Records will put out a double-vinyl release of this first EP, in order to celebrate the record’s 20th anniversary. Word has it that, if you’re interested, you should probably pick one up quickly, since they should run out with swiftness. I wouldn’t know, though, as my mind is a blank slate of nothing.
