brian trageskin Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Richard's patterns of consumption are very 21st century too. He loves films, but can't concentrate on books. He tried to read Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time but discovered it was taking him about two hours to recover from each paragraph. Instead he loves computer games and paintball, and admits to being intensely competitive. He loves to make music, but hasn't time to listen to it, except when he's in his car. The music he makes is consistently devoid of literal meaning. Famously, titles like "Xylem Tube," "Acrid Avid Jam Shred" and "Quoth" sound like mock-scientific messages from Hobbit-land, but they are deliberately opaque. It's no coincidence that the Cornish noise boy has chosen a genre that is entirely wordless. "I don't really like words in music. It's too restricting... I don't like words in general because they mean something. Whereas electronic stuff—because it's so abstract and doesn't have any meaning...you can interpret it in so many ways."

Guest earlgrey Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 18) It is widely known that Radiohead's Kid A was widely influenced by your music, in particular 'Come As you Are'…What do you think of their new stuff and other contemporaries? Well they widely agreed to pay me 70% of the widely royalties so ,Im not complaining. um ..... what the fuck is "come as you are", apart from a completely unrelated song by Nirvana?

Joyrex Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 1. Xtal =>electronic symbol for oscillator Yeah, I saw that on my great 80s tape machine - I'm kind of guessing he glanced over something similar and decided to call the track that. Not sure what it would be refering to on a tape machine though Many of Richard's early tracks were made on reel to reel and cassette decks, and he distributed his early tracks amongst his friends on cassette. The track THA, comes from SamanTHA, a girl that Richard supposedly 'stole' from former partner Tom Middleton (who collaborated on Analogue Bubblebath 1) Samantha Robinson the photographer who took the surfing on sinewaves picture?

Guest cyphersum Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 "i" could just be the symbol for imaginary number i read a long time ago in the Great Rock discography book that the track "i" was shortened from the original title "i won't let the Sun go down on me". you can see it here about halfway down the page on the right is the discog.

That's obviously a mistake, accidentally cross-referenced with another, similar song title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
