MIKE & RICH!!!

2007-07-08T15:23:06Z

It came in the mail today.... M&R: expert knob twiddlers... and I'm very excited. Never heard anything from this collaboration before. So far, its jazzier than the common AFX fare, probably a direct result from whoever the 'Mike' is in this equation. But it is good and refreshing... but I'm only on track one! Oh. here comes track two... bye!

KALX?

2007-06-02T20:53:12Z

I'm concerned. Is Rich going by the handle: KALX or is it a parody? Go to www.myspace.com/kalx ... I'm so paranoid but it seems fishy to me.

My Windowlicker tribute (funny video)

2007-05-26T17:49:02Z

I did a tribute to RDJ on the night of my prom. I was sitting in a white limo on the drive there...realised I had a CD with me with Windowlicker on it. And someone next to me had an umbrella...it was impossible to resist. Asked the driver to play it loud when we stopped...and the vid shows what happened.

Why has Aphex twin sucked for the last 4 years?

2006-09-19T04:41:24Z

Im just curious, does anyone else feel like he does?
I enjoyed Druqks and all, but it didnt even seem like a new release. It sounded more like a compilation of previously unreleased tracks. His song on Rephlexions was very boring, and Smojphace sounds like a bad Venetian Snares parody.

Anyone know whats going on?

Has RDJ gotten himself addicted to Heroin?

I am just very surprised that a man with so much talent has decided to stop producing extremely creative music..

thanks

movie "Pulse" steals Come to Daddy imagery

2006-09-05T17:39:54Z

I saw a commercial for that new movie Pulse and it looks like they ripped off the imagrey in the Come to Daddy video where the monster Richard is screaming at the old lady. I just went to make sure Chris Cunningham was not one of the producers of Pulse, and he was not listed.

IDM the new classical?

2006-02-25T06:01:15Z

People really get pissed when you say this, for some reason.
I'm involved in this 'thing' with some wanker over at the Shroomery Music/Arts Forum over it.

What do you think?

As far as I can tell, structurally the songs that I've heard are complex and moving enough to qualify.
The only weird part is the depth of the actual acoustic sounds coming from the strings, woodwinds, brass etc.
But whats the difference when you can *record acoustic instruments* and incorperate that into a digitally constructed arrangement?

I don't know much about the technical aspects though.
What you think?

Did anyone else go to Palmdale to see Aphex around 1991?

2005-09-12T18:44:04Z

I'm hoping I have the year right. I think it was in March or May of 1991 or 1990. I want to get my dates right on that. I thought it was kickass even though there were only about 40 people there to hear him. Digeredoo had just started rotation on MARS FM. Most of the 'ravers' spent time in the House tent adjacent to where RDJ was playing because his stuff was a bit abrasive to say the least. It was on a dusty hillside in a pre-developed housing tract. Am I the only one??

At least we all know.

on a side note, Don't know if you've been here, but it's got a long playlist, and snibbits of each song, & his alters.

why "i care because you do" is Richard D. James' greatest album

2005-08-09T04:18:11Z

god, where do i start? i was a lot younger when i got into it (18, to be exact), but to listen to and examine it now, wow. simply put, it is the textures. his really strong albums have that continuity, but this album has a warmth and eerieness that extends throughout the whole album that can't be found in anything else he's done (at least not that collectively). secondly, it's almost COMPLETELY original. he'd shown references to it on 85-92, but that album only hinted on what was to be. there is a track on that album that arguably could fit on the analogue-filled creepiness of "I Care..." ("Schottkey 7th Path"), but as a whole, this album is simply too perfect and thorough from beginning to end.

secondly, it's got "Icct Hedral" and "COME ON YOU SLAGS!", which just about goes without saying. in my opinion, these two are the "headphuq" totem poles that anchor the rest of the warm madness going on. personally, i have a fondness for dark and delirious tones, and if there are melodies that evoke the insanity of his self-portrait on the cover of the album, it is found in these two songs.

thirdly,....i gotta go. but here's a few more of my favs:

The Richard D James Album - cementing his genius once and for all...
Classics - brutal
Selected Ambient Works 85-92 - genius, classic, all that good stuff....
Selected Ambient Works 2 - one word: texture

2005-04-14T06:41:50Z

Have many of you all heard the Smojphace ep? Any thoughts on it? The first track is a remix of cut by The Bug/Daddy Freddy, with a feel to it that i could only say was slightly similar to the first song off of the 2nd disc of 26 mixes for cash, but with the crazy meter cranked up to near saturation, and with evil jamaican instead of german =l. then everything kinda disintegrates into noise, and it pretty much stays there for the last 2 tracks.

remixes

2004-08-05T02:53:47Z

Hello to all of you
I wonder what you think of his 26 remixes for cash? I just got it a couple weeks ago, and by coincidence happened to take a hit of acid a friend of mine had given me many months ago that I had left in my desk drawer and forgot about. I spent the night typing and listening to 26 remixes and ultravisitor by squarepusher (you must buy this album if you haven't already!) As might be your experience as well, a psychadelic drug reveals the brilliant depth and complexity of their music. I don't know the name, but track 14 on the second disc is as close as anyone has ever come to defining in sound what lsd is like, so far as I have heard. Even since that lovely night a few weeks ago, everytime I listen to the song I feel my mind moving into new places, my whole body even. The first track on the second disc rivals Come To Daddy in terms of music for demons. While I was listening to this song I was overcome with gigantic too-much feelings and kept visualizing Satan's armies of ghoules stomping their feet and clapping their hands while Satan's second in command rapped away to the beat and Satan followed his forces to the fallen capital of the world. It sounds pretty awful, but it was really funny and I couldn't stop laughing while I listened to this song. Overall, the album is probably his most accessible. Someone told me he said in an interview that his song Milkman on Richard D. James was his attempt at a pop song, and the same could be said about most of the music on this album. Its often gentle or very sweet melodies over slightly fucked with drum breaks that eventually ascend into a more characteristic aphex song, and he does at times (I sound like a stupid critic, it's not my intention) create sounds for moods I never thought there could be expression for. Overall though it doesn't plunge into new like Druqks did. That album is still genuinely beyond our comprehension. It's like a color that hasn't been invented. The remixes are also incredible, and are alot like his Come to Daddy EP with a lot of energy invested to give us listeners a good wholesome experience. He deserves our money but we deserve another album comparable to druqks. Or maybe we don't even. But, shit, I didn't mean to write all these thoughts out, I wanted to know what you all think. So let's hear

Trackin' Down Tha Man

2004-05-24T23:22:01Z

Anyone have suggestions as to the best way to try to contact Richard James directly. I'm trying to get permission to use "nannou" in a short film my dance company is making. I sent him a letter care of his London management and another care of Reflex but have yet to hear back.
He recently stated in an interview, “I don’t think music should be a commodity…I really do think there shouldn’t be any copyright on art.” With that viewpoint in mind, I was hoping that he'd allow my dance company, which lacks the financial resources to pay for the rights, to utilize the sample.
Any leads would be appreciated....
