    Richard D James SoundCloud - A Gift To The Fans

    in Aphex Twin

    Posted

    I'm manually editing up the tracks for proper consumption. This shit is satisfying mang. Putting the artwork, most proper title, and upload order. I'm making it so the comments and tags and alternate titles and whatnot show up as the lyrics on my iPod. I know how I'll be filling my time this weekend.

    (the emoticons on here give me so much nostalgia :trashbear: )

    Happy tunes like acid organ are the best.

     

    I love the Ventolin remixes. Cool to see some alternates of them.

    What was the other one? I didn't tag it. EDIT: It's phuqed up.

     

     

    Is anyone else having problems with a ton of ads getting past your adblock on WATMM>?

     

    There aren't any ads on here mang.

    Are people copying down the descriptions on the tracks? I have a note with them all, at least I think I have them all.

     

    The main thing this event has done is remind me that I need to listen back to stuff I haven't listened to much.

     

    I like seeing people talk about a track & going to listen to them for the first time. I've been listening to tracks piece by piece.

     

    Depression has made it hard for me to get excited for things for so long. Richard's recent activity has been bumping me back into being capable of getting hyped. I am grateful. I hope I can keep the positivity going for a while.

     

    I need to put them on my iPod in a proper order.. I think I'll just put them as close to upload order as I can and dig in. But what about Girl/Boy Dark Version & Red Calx? Shruggo. I don't think it matters now, people will figure out good ways to order things.

    I got Chosen Lords way back. I dug it. My non-piracy policy, and the vinyl only release, made me pass on listening to the rest for ages.

     

    I finally pirated it like a dink not too long ago. I haven't given it enough attention. Makes me sad for the Aphex-obsessed youth I was in the past. The new album hype is bringing me back.

     

    I'm going to give the shit I've neglected some good listening in the following weeks. Still need to give The Tuss more attention.

    If I'm anticipating something I usually want to experience as little of it as possible before release.

     

    I wouldn't even listen to a pre-release single for Syro, unless there is a video.

     

    Firefox suggested pee-release as a correction for pre-release.

    So, is anyone attending a listening party or have a nice plan as to how they will enjoy the record?

     

     

    how will you be listening to hit?

    club speakers, headphones, studio monitors, home entertainment system, desktop speakers, laptop speakers?

     

    i'm curious and i would really like to know.

    Headphones, iPod, relaxed, uninterrupted. I would like to listen while driving. Probably won't though.

    I'll likely queue it up before work to have it finished by the time I have to start work. I love doing that.

    This might be another stupid question and OT, but did he re-marry? ‚Voices of his wife’.

     

    I'm very excited about another Lornaderek.

    Lornaderek featured his parents, Lorna and Derek James. At the time, Nannou and Nanou2 were rumoured to be named after his then-girlfriend, who was French. The last track on SYRO is apparently named after his wife.

     

    Honestly though, let's keep his family/relations out of this and afford the man some respect - discussing tracks obviously named after them is fair game, but as exemplified by my above dip into gossip-ville, it's a slippery slope for sure.

     

    I can't help but be amused by the idea of his son following in his footsteps - kids are awesome and the best hope of any parent (myself included) is your children exceed your own abilities and goals by light years.

     

    I always assumed his son was featured on multiple tracks on the Come To Daddy EP. Listening to it again this week had me wondering. If that's his kid, then he'd be around my age.

    There wasn't a music video for drukqs, was there. So consequently if there's no single this time either, no music video. Strangely i was looking forward to, since i just thought about it a few minutes ago (takes this long to post with the lag), i was looking forward to a cool new music video. It has been a while since windowlicker and it would be fun to see the use of art and design with todays tech (but hopefully not today's early 90's throwback visual language tastes though heh) to intersect with one of his funkier tracks /of course i'm not moaning lol, just musing. And music video's cost a fortune, so whatever.

    Monkey Drummer? Rubber Johnny?

    WATMM don't die. This is crazy. I still feel like it'll either be some goofy joke album or a hoax. I'll be in disbelief until I have that shit in my hands.

     

    Regarding the foldface image, it really looks like it's Richard holding it up to his face. The edge of the bottom half has stuff going on. I dunno. I think the cover will be just the bottom part. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

    I,m so flapy that his happen :trashbear: Thanks to all involved of course! <3

     

    I really like the album. This whole situation reminds me of when I first got into RDJ & would buy CDs off of Amazon. I'm feeling that "Oh boy, another RDJ album has arrived!" excitement. It has been a long time since I felt that, sheesh.

     

    This makes me want to go get every little thing I can dig up. Still quite a lot of his stuff that I never ended up picking up or listening to. I only recently finally got around to listening to The Tuss like a dunce.

    Summer is super RDJ time already for me. This has pulled me into that RDJ mood.

    Do you guys also get aroused by sound?

    I wanna be into this stuff, but it hasn't worked for me yet. I will give it a try again when I find myself in a more funky zone.

     

    Regarding the whole fuck the ladies thing, I don't think that is really much of an aspect of it. Intimacy isn't sex, eh?

     

    I had an eye exam on Friday, with new folks. The lady who did the main part was whispering "One... or two?" when she was flipping around different measurements for my eyeball see good prescription. I started to whisper my answers. It was relaxing. It reminded me of these videos.
