AE_2022– (initially known as AE_LIVE 2022–) is a compilation of live recordings by British electronic music duo Autechre. While initially released on 10 August 2023 through Warp Records, a set of brand new recordings were added in November 2024. Currently, it consists of 19 soundboard recordings made during their live tours in 2022–2024.
Background
[edit]The first batch of seven recordings was released on 10 August 2023 under the title AE_LIVE 2022–, consisting of shows recorded in Europe during 2022.[1] The second batch of twelve recordings was released on 4 November 2024, now retitled AE_2022–, consisting of shows recorded in Australia and Europe during 2023 and in Europe during 2024.[2][3][4]
In an interview with Metal, Rob Brown referred to the title as 2022 dash, indicating that the release was open-ended.[5] In the same interview, both Brown and Sean Booth state that they're no longer interested in releasing albums, and will focus on releasing live sets online.[5]
"I'm honestly not that interested in records anymore. The concept of what a studio album is seems outdated. For instance, if I create a track on my laptop while on a train, does that qualify as a studio album? No one would know it was made there. If I use my laptop on stage, does that still count as a studio record? It’s different because there’s an audience. But if I’m in the studio with friends while making a hip-hop album, is that an audience too? These terms become confusing."
