    Read this while patiently waiting for more soundcload dumps :catfallen:

    thank you for these, good reads. I really wonder whether he did write Top 40 songs and who for.... maybe he was lying, who knows.

     

     

    yeah, that info can't be secret any longer, right? I also wonder what other commercial work he has done, I know of the Pirelli commercial, but that's it.

    from the dj food article:

     

    "Looking at some of the dates on the titles – mid to late 80’s – I’m slightly dubious as this would mean RDJ was making fully-formed gabba Techno at the same time as the Detroit pioneers were weaving their magic."

    That's the most amazing thing about Aphex Twin, he was a pioneer in every possible sense of the word. It is so rare that someone is literally "before his time" that people tend to not believe it. And what doesn't help is that pioneers rarely say they are pioneers, they leave that blah blah business to the big mouths of the scene.

     

     

    It's a pretty consistent phenomenon for innovations to occur in separate places at the same time.

    change thread title to 'grammy-winning syro'?

    yep. mods pls

     

     

    but it will look like we actually care about that grammys, pop hypes, wawards and silicone boobs

     

     

    I care because Kanye does

     

    Well, there's why I won't change it :emotawesomepm9:

     

     

    I trust Herr Jann's judgement

    80s tite is excellent! Anyone know what album this is off?

    yes, it's from an old soviet electro record called 'pulse 1: musical computer' by a. rodionov and b. tikhomirov

     

    cheers

     

    wait, what is this conversation about? where is '80s tite'?

     

     

    Richard uploaded and quickly took down a track apparently to test Soundcloud's copyright filter or something:

    did anybody who bought the special edition actually listen to the bonus track...

     

    SYROBONKUS - 300 x 300mm Intaglio print from metalwork mother plate, hand printed on 280gsm Somerset Velvet Radiant White, presented in casebound print folio

    for the amount of money they charged for it I hope it was this looped over and over

     

    nope, nobody ever figured out how to get it to sound any good. this is the best anyone got:

     

     

    It's a nice bullshit, a kind of gadget. Nothing more. The sound that comes out is only the insignificant noise ... and it's wanted. it's just a paper to frame and hang on a wall... :spiteful:

     

    it sounds... like paper

    How was this soundcloud first discovered? In my excitement to rip all the first streams I think I missed that part. How did we get where we are today, watmm?

    userblablabla001 commented on aphextwin soundcloud CCAI track, something like "i also made electronics in 90s, gonna upload my dats" and aphextwin responded to him (to himself, basically). aaaand the rest is history

    edit:

     

    on Diskhat ALL Prepared1mixed [snr2mix]

    Would like to know the full setup for this track, brilliant music man, I loved your early 90's stuff, I was doing stuff in the early 90's as well similiar to you but I did know about you when I did it, gunna be uploading it slowly to soundcloud, stay tuned!

    @user487363530: beautiful stuff, would love to hear more

    Yeah, this. Timothy Forward on here was the first to pick up on it before anyone else afaik: http://forum.watmm.com/topic/85636-richard-d-james-soundcloud-a-gift-to-the-fans/page-7

    I like the split persona approach, how he commented on himself as someone else who also happens to be himself. Its fits the whole mythos of the aphex twin quite nicely

     

    haha yeah I almost imagined kid cloudkicker was Richard too as the repentant hater XD
