According to that tripoded camera - it looks like someone recorded the whole thing. I want the incredibly bad performance.

 

The intro has been done before.

 

Also the last second or two someone is heard to be yelling, "TURN IT UP!"

 

Haha, could well be me, I shouted that. A lot. The funny thing is that the first time it worked for about 5 minutes!!

 

Don't remember that intro at all which is a bit worrying, if understandable seeing I barely man!aged to sober up to make it into the tent for Aphex!

YES! that's the shit I was unable to dance to.. I did have a tiny worry that I was too drunk to decipher a good beat from a bad beat, but oh no! my worries have been cleared.. it was like that video the whole way through.

THE EXCITING CROWD AT APHEX TWIN BESTIVAL 2008:

 

hah typical... blame the crowd, not the performer. you may need to crawl out of GAK's ring hole!

 

I wasn't blaming the crowd, just found it funny how unenthusiastic they look.

Even when he played fenix funk or last rushup 10 (songs that i like), they just felt totally empty. In all, the sound set up was what sabotaged the evening.

 

He played Last Rushup 10? Nice.

me neither and i WAS sober. whoever posted that youtube video is having a laugh because that was not in his set. (the rest was, however)

"i was in the big top for Aphex, but didn't think it was him, the sound / music / vibes were shite. so many people were leaving cos they thought it was just a warm up dj on."

 

LOL aphex as a warm up DJ...

What was that really cheesy party tune he played in the first 15 mins? That one you can hear at any given bar/pub on a Friday night up and down the country? That was a bit of an eyebrow raiser!

 

It was 'Word Up' by Cameo!

Bestival (Aphex Twin / My Bloody Valentine / Underworld)

 

i already watched this yesterday... why don't you guys stop picking on him ^^? sure it is a great disappointment if you go to an aphex gig and all you get ist "soft dance music" and bad sound. but we ALL know that richard d. james isn't born to be a dj! people accept him as a dj because he's such a good producer and something like a legend, a have-to-know-artist. otherwise they would throw all sort of things at him! and now also the sound system was broken...!

 

nevertheless, i like his taste for music and enjoy listening to his sets (not all of them!), even if his mixing skills aren't the best!

yeah wtf is griever on about

i never said there weren't great mixes by him (atp 2003 is very well mixed, but i don't like his choice of music in this set that much)! anyways, i enjoy his style of mixing music, it's not as hyper-perfect as the technique of those f***ing boring trance djs (for expample). you don't even notice that someone is standing behind the turntables or whatever! well it's just my point of view.

 

maybe he just had a bad day at bestival :smile:?

listen, Torino traffic Festival 2005 was a great night... 100% pure aphex's sounds!

To Rome, same year, was a perfect shit.

 

so, i don't know why.. really don't but... this is RDJ :fee:
