Herr Jan Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 So what other marketing campaigns did Warp do for previous Aphex albums? Besides filling a whole record store with nothing but Drukqs albums together with that Rubber Johnny commercial (the only thing I really witnessed consciously)? The real mysterious puzzle stuff for TH really fitted BoC, don't that will be the case here but it's going great so far I'm pretty sure the Rubber Johnny film was just a short film made by Cunningham in his spare time, I don't believe it was a tie in with anything. Could be wrong but... Never heard about the shop full of Drukqs though, that's cool. Nah, that all started with a commercial for Drukqs, Cunningham was dressed in that costume and recording that commercial on 9/11-2001. Years later it was made into a short movie. This one I mean (which isn't banned at all, I saw it numerous times on Dutch MTV at the time): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funkaholic Posted August 16, 2014 Author Share Posted August 16, 2014 Is there any noise? By any chance? There is an apparently sold out beer festival next to the blimp organised by Oval Space. That's it. Nothing but the blimp hanging on a rusty old truck! The guy that first tweeted about all this says this: "Staff saying the blimp is about "an event that's been cancelled". THEN EXPLAIN WHY THERE'S STILL A BLIMP #aphextwin #takingthistooseriously" "Just asked DJ at beer festival if anything is happened re: Aphex Twin and he smiled knowingly and shrugged. Kicking out time in 25 minutes" "Doors reopen at 7, I don't have £35 to spare so won't be tweeting if anything does happen" https://twitter.com/heyjackcooper/with_replies ah man, if i wasn't broke i would go pay £35 with the risk of feeling a fool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
