Gescom is an electronic music project based in England with close ties to the band Autechre. The name is believed to have at some point meant Gestalt Communications, Global Enterprise Communication Systems, or Global Engineering Systems Components. Stylistically, the music of Gescom is closer to electronic dance music, acid techno, and hip-hop than Autechre's, with the exception of a few conceptual remixes (and the minidisc, see below). Notable releases include Key Nell, Minidisc, and ISS:SA. Members Sean Booth of Autechre describes Gescom as an umbrella project involving 20 or 30 people. However, since most of their releases are anonymous, the exact roster of the project is not widely known. · Autechre's debut album, Incunabula, has the motto GESCOM "PLEASURE IS OUR BUSINESS" printed on the spine of the packaging, and thanks Darrell Fitton 4 Gescom
