how do you pronounce "Autechre"

(Ow Tech Urr, Ah Tech Urr, Outta Kurr, ah-oo-tetch-ree, etc)

ok that last one is bullshit, but I've heard many people say it many ways.

    All the british folks I knew over there pronounced it Aw-tech-re (the first sylable is debatable but the end is always consistent).

    I've heard radio interviews with Jonathan Moore and Matt Black and another with Jamie Lidell in which it was pronounced the same way.

        They should do a better job of informing people on british radio then. They obviously don't know them as well as you do.

          here you go kids, all you need to know about Autechre=

          en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autechre

          here are two quotes taken from random websites-

          Booth and Brown have explained that the name Autechre can be pronounced in any way anyone sees fit. They pronounce it "aw-tek-er"

          Autechre can be pronounced any way you feel is best: ah-tek-ray, ah-tek-er,
          ah-te-ker, ah-tetsh-er are all different ways I've heard it pronounced.
          According to an interview, Autechre themselves say awe-tek-er.

          I personally pronounce it 'awe-taker' , im from england so i should know !!

          now stop bickering !
