some of the angles are kind of remarkable. The slope of the horizon vs madonna's profile outline; her jawline matches roughly where two dunes meet. Anyway, this was inspired by a friend's Facebook photo of his front room where the Madonna album was lying and I immediately assumed it was Autechre until I looked closer
― doorstep jetski (dog latin), Wednesday, 11 March 2020 10:41 (five years ago)
not the first time I've noticed uncanny correlations in Autechre stuff vs other culture:
Check out the intros of the two songs from roughly the same era:

You can even mix them over each other and they sync up quite well
