    Richard D James SoundCloud - A Gift To The Fans

    in Aphex Twin

    Posted

    While we are gushing and amazed, I recall reading several interviews where Richard said one of his goals is to always be making music, so there is potentially much much more to come! Not to mention him saying he hasn't started yet (at 180 tracks in!).

     

    Definitely an exciting time for us aphex fans!

     

    One thing that hit me about the soundcloud is how many growers there are in there. Maybe it's me, but the obviously catchy great tunes kind of overshadow the others, but on multiple listens the tracks really manage to charm me in their own ways.

    Drukqs is truly a modern masterpiece.

    I was thinking about the title 'DrukQs' today because I've always struggled with it being about 'drug use' or whatever - doesn't really seem to match the depth of the music.

     

    So I split the phrase into 'druk' and 'qs' and found that:

     

    'druk' is derived from the old Scottish 'drukna' which means 'drowning' and q.s. (in medicine) = quantom sotis, or 'the amount which is needed'.

     

    So we end up with 'the amount which is needed to drown'. I'm not saying that this is the meaning of the title, but the sheer weight of the music, mixed with the journey between cornwall and france conjured by the mont + mount track really feels appropriate to me.

    It may not be like that, but it's my favourite ever explanation for the album title. Even tho I'd prefer to think about it like "drowning a little"... I imagine it being a reference to rdj drowning under the huge amount of work that has gone in putting the tracks together... He just released them before drowning completely

     

     

    I also recall in some interview, can't remember which one, Richard talked about a near-death experience being carried out to sea and he managed to catch a wave back to the shore before drowning

    I don't think it's a bad thing, perhaps the fact that all the track titles have bpm attached suggests they are club fodder or something, not to diminish from the album at all, it's multi-purpose

    I have posted my idea for a tracklist: Basically what I did was make a boxset called "Surfing On Soundclouds" and then add the tracks that came along with some additional bonus "albums" I have collected for a while. It looks like this
