I read an interview once (perhaps the one posted above, i didn't check) in which Sean Booth said if he were locked in a room for the rest of his life and he could only have 1 piece of software and 1 piece of hardware (besides the computer on which to run the software) he'd take Digital Performer and a Microphone.
DP and MAX/MSP have been associated with these guys for quite a while. during the confield era especially. I hear some percussion sounds like kicks and such sped way up to create melodies...

I love the song Eutow by them. It's from 1995. I wonder what sequencer they were using back then.

autechre eh?
one thing i know about early autechre is that they used to sequence their beats on roland r8 mk 11 drum machines ( i was stage crew at glastonbury when they played years ago and i trainspotted their kit. )
and if anyone knows these machines they'll know that they had a real time humanize function. ( i had one for a while , the machine, not the function)
what that means is that you could record a pattern then select pads whilst recording and record wild changes in pitch and decay etc etc
autechre used this function a lot!
they would take a relatively simple electro pattern and start wildly pitching the hi hats
which made them sound like metal gongs or crashing dustbins and pitch the snares up till they were sounding like hi hats etc.
very easy to do this on the r8 and really effective.
plus it had 8 outputs so you could run it through a mixer and add fx
(this was in the pre-DAW days , cubase was black and white and running from an atari 1040st !)
then they would record/copy onto another pattern
and do the same thing only slightly differently
on and on and on...
until they had a ton of patterns
then they'd link them all together as a song ( which is the difficult bit )
and away they would bloody well go!
story goes: they did an ep about the oncoming criminal justice / anti rave act in the early 90's
and they linked together 77 drum patterns because there were 77 parts to the criminal justice act, or so i heard anyway.
basically it sounded like one continuously changing drum pattern
which was pretty cool i thought.
