  1. Really cool to see Rich comment on this and verify the claim.

     

    Since this topic was brought back up I though I'd post this Go Plastic-era interview with Tom that isn't widely available. It's with Keys magazine and it's in German. I got it from Sepix over on Xltronic awhile ago.

    https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2620795/WATMM/Keys%20Interview.pdf

     

    Some of it was translated in this Xltronic thread, but if someone who knows German wants to tackle the whole thing, that'd be awesome.

  2. JF Fasson D, we grew up together and made a lot of music. He contributed lots of ideas that were implemented in earlier versions of renoise, among other things. He unfortunately died last year. Would love to hear those tracks again...

     

    Sorry to hear about that man. Here's the JF Fasson D tracks for Mr. Burglar or anyone else who is interested.

    I've got quite a bit from that e-man list, but not all of it. 

  3. Glad I could help. 

     

    BTW, these files aren't organized in any way. Some are one-off files and others (usually the ones named in a similar way) were part of small scene releases he did. I didn't include any of the .nfo/.diz and all that but they are kind of fun to look through. 

     

    If Rubin or anyone has any more files than these, I'd love to hear them.

    This is Karl's debut track for Kosmic. It's a great acid/trance song, 
    and just a hint of what's to come from this great musician. 
    Keep an eye out for more great songs by Karl from Kosmic soon, 
    as well as his great tracks in the upcoming EGG musicdisk #3, "Feelin' Groovy".          
    

    Some of the files mention a "Tracked Tribute to the Aphex Twin" but I can't tell if that was actually ever produced. That file is from 1995.

    Richard D. James, also known as Caustic Window, Polygon Window, the
    Diceman, Aphex Twin, AFX and various other monikers, is one of today's
    leading 'techno' pioneers, taking music to all extremes. His most recent
    album, "... I care because you do," is a prime example of this, ranging
    from the harsh, deafening feedback of "Ventolin" to "Alberto Basalm," a
    song with overtones of everything from Portishead to Steve Reich to the
    Beastie Boys.
    
    PC/AT is intended to be a musical tribute to Aphex Twin by tracker
    musicians of all styles and tastes. Submissions can be remixes,
    reinterpretations or covers of any songs James has written. If you are
    interested in participating in this unique project, contact me at the
    address listed below. Submissions are encouraged via email in MIME or
    UUENCODED at the same address.

  4. Goddamn, I arrived too late to the nerd IDM underground scene. Feeling so stupid here but can I somehow convert those tracker pieces to mp3 or something (there's a link in the YT description to the original files but I can't do anything with them)? I take it that there currently isn't a way to get ahold of those impulse tracker pieces and/or Bogdan's KFMF stuff (Karl etc.)? I've got only some pieces of love melodies nintend0 but haven't even been able to find them all let alone the Karl releases or Ice Climber ones. Woud really love to hear those. In general I find Bogdan's early releases much more interesting than his later works which somehow don't have the same impact on me. Hate to ask but if someone can help with those early tracks please do. Because.....

     

    Some audio players can play them. I'm using Vox on OSX and they work.  If it wasn't obvious, you can import them into a tracker like Renoise and actually see how the songs are sequenced and pull out the original samples, etc. I've got some of the tracker files... I'll see if I can upload them later. 

  5. Oh man, I loved reading the endnotes - don't skip them. It's part of the experience. I used 2 bookmarks when I read it, to make it easier to flip back. (If you got through all the tax stuff in The Pale King you'll be fine.)

  6. I did this 2014 and it was awesome. It really helped me to finish tracks - many of which ended up on an album. I don't think I'm going to do it this year, but I'd recommend it for anyone struggling with productivity. Just get something done every week.

  7. I had not heard of teleport regent or zenith romancer. Are these releases available anywhere?

    They were just a few random tracks under the "Teleport Regent" alias. Here's Zenith Romancer. Looove it.

    The Magic Crystal Remixes album is out now: http://caoutchou.bandcamp.com/album/magic-crystal-remixes

     

    Solid release, the Global Goon and Weakmassive remixes are particularly good IMO but all of them are solid tracks.

     

    Thanks SG. I listened to the album yesterday and it's great. Really honored to be part of it!
