Aphex_Squarepusher_Twin Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 i find it : http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/r/richard_d_james.html, & give me an idea 2 create a thread with his quotations which most marked u or amused u Can't really despise people you don't know. I got a feeling I had loads when I was in primary school, 'cause I had red hair; you know, like Duracell. I used to make up names when I used to catalog my stuff. I'm a really good hacker, but I'm not a sensible person. It sounds really arrogant, but my music's my favourite music ever. I prefer it to anyone else's. It started off at a club called Disobey, around the corner from where I live. It's quite similar to guitar solos, only with programming you have to use your brain. The most important thing is that it should have some emotional effect on me, rather than just, 'Oh, that's really clever.' Sometimes I just hit the keyboard in a way I'd like the rhythm of the tracks to sound. The best musicians or sound-artists are people who never considered themselves to be artists or musicians. There's a lot of melancholy in my tracks. Well, I just bought a massive bank and I've moved into it on my own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goDel Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Dflaghaozoushiduqwd. Nice rhythm. I'd place a bit more focus on the D's though. It would bring a bit more balance to the middle section, which feels a bit lagging if you ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phudoshin Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 "Someone had just got glassed right in front of me at the George Robey pub, Finsbury Park, North London, and I was thinking I wish I had stayed at home in my studio. Oh, I might as well stay and watch the bloke with the bass guitar, who keeps wandering behind the Dj booth. That, I thought, is almost certainly going to be good for a laugh. The next thing I felt was a fuzzy vibration, as monophonic sound waves that had travelled from the other side of the room at the speed of light, compressing the air and displacing the smoke of ten spliffs, hit me in both ear bones simultaneously. It was Mr. Jenkinson who was turning my heartbeat into the sound of a ring piece modulated resonant phaselocked trapezoid backwards edit phlanged kick drum. He made the sound of ambulances turn into slide trombones and the sound of a secretary filing her nails into a 24-piece string section. When my partner Grant Wilson-Clarriarge (Cerebus note: Grant is his partner in Rephlex Records) saw Tom spasmodically twitching in order to play a funky bassline in time with a 347 bpm drum and bass track, he thought he should either be committed or recorded (fortunately he chose the latter). Undoubtedly, Tom Jenkinson is the first man in history to orchestrate an akai-seltzer fizzing a two mega byte simms memory upgrade chip (with 1 nanosecond access time) and a toilet flushing. When Mr. Jenkinson is conducting, the rest of the world is in the pit. One of his earliest experiments was recording an ant walking on sand. Unfortunately, the experiment was cut short by a cat meowing. Of course, this is not to say that Tom 'Squarepushing' Jenkinson was the first person ever to discover that the sounds of everyday life can be more melodious than the sounds of traditional music. For instance, George Bernard Shaw once said, "Nothing soothes me more after a long day of pianoforte recitals, than to sit and have my teeth drilled." The Squarepusher is someone who wonders what the holes of a flute sound like without the flute. Sound like sound never sounded before, Richard Rodgers and Julie Andrews gave us the Sound of music, John Cage and Simon and Garfunkel gave us the Sound of silence and now the Squarepusher gives us the SOUND of SOUND. - PRichard.D.Jams" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
