"It is also their worst, and probably the one in which the two Autechre had the least involvement."

 "The result is equally mediocre and without the slightest hint of inspiration."

Gescom's Motor EP from 1994 is considered their weakest release, with minimal input from Autechre. The tracks lean heavily on dated American electro and acid techno styles but lack development and inspiration. Motor 1 shows some Autechre influence, while Motor 2 and 3 feel uninspired acid techno experiments. Motor 4 tries to adopt an IDM approach but remains mediocre. The artwork is praised despite the music's shortcomings. Discover why Gescom's Motor EP remains a controversial and overlooked 1994 electronic release—listen and judge for yourself!

 The dark sounds and very gloomy atmospheres that Mr. Luis Vasquez composed in the grip of some early ’80s fervor are brutally betrayed in form by a relentless drum machine.
