  1. i'm not aware anyone has ever done a proper mashup of the two tracks, so https://youtu.be/J6dFJeZJad4
  2. there was no video for it and Richard was already too controversial and "off the reservations" with his political opinions. Hollywood, the record industry and Madison avenue will never boost his exposure ever again. Modern culture is tightly controlled and vetted, at best going forward Aphex Twin will be a minor figure of 90's nostalgia as long as he keeps his mouth shut.
  3. Anyone knows what exactly the deal with Chrysalis implies? Wouldn't the Analords already be licensed by Chrysalis from their release in 2005 and 2009 on Rephlex? My basic understanding is that Chrysalis has to do with the rights of the compositions and not the audio recordings and performances, but since RDJ's Chrysalis deal seems to cover all his tracks across all aliases, is the deal covering every single compositions he comes up with before they are commercially released? Warp seems to only own the recordings they release on their label. While we're on the subject, why was Analord 10 credited to Aphex Twin and not AFX (on Chosen Lords too)? I know the tracks on 10 are much more polished than the rest of the series, just wondering if there was an official explanation.
  4. last two christmases even. pianokupt norm in christmas 2015 and tnodvood104 in christmas 2016:
  5. and With My Family seems so much more SOSW than ICBYD. Sounds like it comes from the same rig as Portreath Harbour.

  7. ​ ​I've been looking for tapes, chrome and type 1 are easy to find for duplication and even cheap (apparently, old pancakes mass-produced in yesteryears, sold to national audio company in US and others around the world), but no signs of metal cassettes or pancakes in america or anywhere else i'm aware of, apart from old small random casettes lots on ebay. Maybe for afx some miracle could happen, or a forgotten lot found, but I doubt metal IV cassettes of aphex's discography will see the light of day, unless extremely limited and expensive (whatever blank metal cassettes around are not so far from retail prices of finished produced vinyls). ​http://www.tapeheads.net/showthread.php?t=40890: ​
  8. ​ok, not a bootleg if you say so. I don't know the TECH guy or his ethics but didn't Grant bootleg the famous unreleased Squarepusher acid tracks way back without his OK, well maybe not for resale, but it's not like the idea is unheard of. ​ and so far only information about mastering is thumbs-up by dr lopez in his youtube and his "not sounding like 192k mp3" comment. anyone knows for sure what was used as a source for this? richard digged up the original recordings for this?
  9. ​just my 2 cents and not an engineer but 24 tsim is 303k VBR and Gerald is 320k in the soundcloud dump and both sound fairly good as MP3s. doesn't seem far-fetched to make a fair or good sounding bootleg just from those files with minimal massaging or conversion, theorically. in the absence of more information, the use of ''Aphex twin'' moniker and no legal mention of '''Aphex'' used by courtesy of Aphex Systems'' on packaging as far as I can tell would indicate bootleg to me, sanctioned by Richard for private use at best. doesn't feel like an Aphex Twin release. ​ ​ ​ ​
  10. A1 my favourite track, reminds me of Fenix Funk finale emotion wise. ​B1 interesting experimental track, messed up rythm that actually works well. ​
  11. hate to say this but this one is priced a but much on bandcamp for what it is, some rough bare jams in there. happy to support for all the great music tho

    Cheetah EP

    The samples sounded nothing like any SAW3 stuff. More of the same as in Syro. yeah, the track that was referred as saw3 sounded to my ears like an extended Playstation audio logo.

    Cheetah EP

    agree sadly, the first few tracks especially seem underwhelming and a bit bare-bones.. obviously the 30sec samples might not make much sense outside of the entire tracks tho digging cirklon 1 however and revamped cheetah3 is fuckingFUCK agree also. underwhelming samples, would never have pre-ordered this on their basis.

    Cheetah EP

    dunno if this posted here, credit tytygawizard on r/aphex confirming cheetah3 is cirklon3 https://i.imgur.com/3zgTFfB.png
  15. nice trick in theory, but from the legal dictionary:
  16. yeah, i wonder too what stats could have to do with turning tracks private. don't see it. I originally thought it was some kind of moodswing. koan time!
  17. at first I thought it was just afx doing some spring clearing, removing some of the weaker tracks, but among those are arguably some of the best tracks of the whole dump (with my family, i rest my case). wonder if some official release is down the line soonish.
  18. was it in the syrobunkers interview that richard was talking about working on a new logo / "sigil"? wonder if it's that logo. AFX ≠ Aphex, I know. but the (A) was on a few Analords and Analogue Bubblebaths.
  19. what, like a fire? ha! yeah, no risk of burning down the house if it's already flooded
  20. you can't drink that water, you know. most likely the electricity would be out as well so you couldn't boil it either, unless you got yourself a macgyver contraption of some kind. where's the watmm survivalist board?
  21. meanwhile on reddit... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpWwtYo9V5s
