Guest yarou151 Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Anyone else ever notice how excellent a lot of Richard's tracks sound at a different RPM? Wanting to get the most out of Aphex's music, I have dedicated and re-burned many of his tracks either slowed down to 33 1/3 or sped up to 45; I must say, the results have been stunning - many of the songs sound completely transformed and gorgeous after being exported These are my finds: BEST RESULTS from: 45 to 33 1/3 In Aphex: AFX237 V7 COME ON YOU SLAGS CRAPPY (from any live shows) - insane DEVIL'S HAIRCUT REMIX DIGERIDOO FLIM HEXAGON - beautiful ISOPROPANOL METAPHARSTIC - so dark POLYNOMIAL-C TAMPHEX - hardcore VENTOLIN (ASTHMA BEATS) - nice melody WINDOWLICKER - bass is great XTAL - gorgeous ZEROES & ONES REMIX In AFX: BOXING DAY BOX ENERGY REMIX - brilliant MANGLE 11 - turns into a great DnB track VBS.REDLOF.B W32.DEADCODE.A - fantastic In Caustic Window: CUNT - crazy ending HMNE - hardcore ITALIC EYEBALL - superb JOYREX J5 In Polygon Window: IKETA QUIXOTE - dark and soothing In Mike & Rich WINNER TAKES ALL - the hi-res LFO modulations are brilliantly chilling BEST RESULTS from: 33 1/3 to 45 In Aphex COCK VER/10 PANCAKE LIZARD - very cool RHUBARB - majestic THA - the melody is gorgeous WEATHERED STONE - great beat WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE REMIX YOU CAN'T HIDE YOUR LOVE REMIX - the voices are chibi, but it works!:D In AFX AB5 TRACK 6 W32.MYDOOM.AU@MM - becomes something of a DnB track, sounds great In Mike & Rich THE SOUND OF BEADY EYES - turns into a great piece of break beat jazz BEST RESULTS from: 78 to 33 1/3 The only one I found that worked so far is Track 1 off AB5 - 21 minutes of bliss<3 So what do you think? C'mon, give 'em a try in Audacity and see if you agree! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoodie Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 I only listen to Mt. Saint Michel at 33 rpm. 45 is way too fast. You miss all the little details, all the little 808 cowbells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Synthacat 9 Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 I only listen to Mt. Saint Michel at 33 rpm. 45 is way too fast. You miss all the little details, all the little 808 cowbells. yeah my mate sent me this track slowed down too, don't think it was from vinyl tho think it was the mp3 slowed down to like 100bpm or something. it was great, I came. This makes me want to slow down all of Rick's work. Even if it was a 33, I don't need to speed it up(well I mean it's fun and sounds neat and whatnot but I don't think it would open my eyes to sounds and structures that I had missed before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

logboy Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 there's a track or two on drukqs that are so fast, they often sound like speeded-up versions of those tracks he says he's made which go on for nearly an hour... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest yarou151 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 agreed - i'm listening to it from 78 to 45 right now - blissful i like the fast version as well just for its edge there's a track or two on drukqs that are so fast, they often sound like speeded-up versions of those tracks he says he's made which go on for nearly an hour... yeah, a lot of those tracks, you wonder if he constructed them at these BPMs and then sped it up afterwards, quite interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
