    why isn't there an Aphex Twin wiki? like a super in depth discography (incl live shows/bootlegs that exist, outtakes, comps, remixes, etc etc)... with ability to comment and discuss on these releases? it'd be an awesome reference.

     

    Wonder if we could create something like that at WATMM, and have that function as a subpage?

    That's what WATMM had, when it had a site proper attached to it... I'm... working on it :rolleyes:

     

    That would be great!

     

    So yeah: Since the CW LP seemed like a pretty straight forward rip process that happened last Friday can you clarify what is still going on this week that is holding up the release?

     

    maybe they found out that CW LP is utter shit after a single listen that they dont dare to release it? Maybe right now they try to fix the problem paying people back there filthy lucres ? ;-) ;-)

    Am I the only one who didn't pay for a copy of the CW release? I'm honestly just quite worried I won't care much for the material (though I love the Polygon Window/SAW V1 era RDJ) and that the quality might be close to shit. Not that I'm worried they won't rip the vinyl right, but I'm worried that the songs themselves are bad quality as far as production goes. There won't be any options to purchase the digital after it's released, correct?

    Got the same feeling, though I'd bet on one or two minor offbeat gems on this record. Out of three songs that have surfaced, none do much for me. Muttley seems like a cool novelty throwback rave song, but something you'd move on from after listening to it two or three times. Reading Mike P's tracks descriptions did wet my appetite, but he is in many ways a hype-man and not to be trusted seriously. Aphex wasn't very strong with song structure in his early years, and I doubt anything on the CW LP has a level of originality and sophistication that would be worthy of our collective attention if it weren't for the absence of new released works from Richard. Hope I'm way off-track for those eagerly waiting their download vouchers.

     

     

    Fuckin' A.Totally agree.with above. Lets hope those socalled surprises is music post 1994

    what if it's shit?

     

    That's fucking impossible.

     

    Dunno . The leaked tracks are shit

     

     

    What's not shit in AFX discography in your ears?

     

    10% are genial, 20% fantastic, 10% more than good, 30% good and the rest are pure shit

     

     

    So if it's only 30% that's shit, give some examples of it, like full releases if possible.

     

    Impossible. Would you say that EVERYTHING that he has released is great ?There are loads of tracks i skip in Analords ( btw i got the whole set on vinyls ) but among there for instance ; are some very very fine tracks but also some really "not so good" tracks. I will figure 80 min. is really great the rest is not for listining pleasure :-)

     

    every fart from rdj is not a work of genius :-)

     

     

    It's interesting that you're implying that i like everything by RDJ when it's you who said 70% of his stuff are not shit while i have much less shit ratio. I just think Caustic Window, especially this LP judging by a couple of tracks in the air, is one of the biggest achievements by RDJ. I do not think that, say, SAW is this special, for example.

     

    Well i guess if you think that those two tracks imply a great work of art we can get no further because i think they stinks. SAW 1 or 2 got its moment but most of it is just plain...wont say it , i'm at true watmm ;-)
