Richard D James SoundCloud - A Gift To The Fans

[nickthefish]

 

Thanks. Wasn't sure whether or not to like this music without seeing a spectral image. GOOD JOB.

 

 

Love dat sexy yellow bit at 4:10...always brings a tear to my ears.

[petina]

Given the average age of an aphex fan in 2015 I don't think anybody's going to miss those >16khz

 

edited because i forgot wha year it was

[Redruth]

[Ivan Ooze]

it sounds like he mastered the living shit out in these downloads

[juiceciuj]

 

a bunch (maybe like half) of the '320' mp3s look like this

Only some of them aren't any better.

 

From my random sample of like 5 pairs if files, GPO Beat and 21 Vtnm2 are both way better (up to 24khz etc)

Has anyone downloaded all these and tagged them properly so they can be loaded into iTunes as a single album, and not need hours of pissing about with editing the info?

 

That would be great if a single zip containing properly tagged files was uploaded somewhere.

 

Cheers

if it's true that he recorded on DAT in long play mode, this is about what it would look like...it's only 32khz so anything below 16k would be filtered...

[ascdi]

Long play mode! Brilliant!

 

 

EDIT: that’s gotta be it

Finished organizing my files, and I've uploaded them in case anyone wants them, free account though so I don't know how much bandwidth/how many downloads I'm allowed:

 

https://mega.co.nz/#!oQYhiZLR!0JgeqyNmIi2kCJDCTuO3-6Dt3tnKFk1r9K2TO1kb4Yo

 

112 tracks (110 downloaded from Soundcloud + the 128 kbps streaming versions of the 2 that were only briefly available).

 

I've left the filenames unchanged, but tags are as follows.

Artist: AFX (it's the hashtag he added to nearly every track and I thought it unnecessary to make exceptions for the couple of aphex/pbod/... ones).

Album: user48736353001

Track number: Order they were uploaded

Title: As on Soundcloud (so sometimes different from the file name)

 

I also added his comments and embedded the artwork for each track.

 

If someone downloads this and finds anything wrong with it (bad files or errors in the tags or whatever), let me know.

Had a quick early morning listen to the 320 versions of Ssnb and Red Calx[slo]. Pretty perfect way to start a morning, looking forward to going back through the other 100 or so.

 

I've already had the "wake up with tune in head" from a few of the tracks, hard to believe we might never have heard them if Rich hadn't gone into "free love" mode on Soundcloud.

Got a 6 hour drive today - just burned 7 cds of afx for the car

nice to see everyone geeking over this shit as hardcore as i am..

 

scifi staircase remix is so amazing... takes a lot of what made the original great but manages to tighten it all up and add it's own bit of afx-y melodic flavour to it as well. can't believe it was never dropped live or if it was that it was never picked up in a recording or anything??? that scirem fooled us all! shit's ... so ... amazing :)

[Bubba69]

lmao what was that scirem track from then?

[amnesia]

I am so pissed off that Synthtopia are saying you can buy a new Aphex Twin album on Bandcamp and ep when its obvious if you are a real fan to know they are fake. The guy just sampled bits os SAWII and wrote music, most of the tracks dont even sound like APhex. C'mon people jesus! http://www.synthtopia.com/

i erased the numbers from the start of these tracks, then got confused over the whole thing , so i had to download the tracks again and not fuck with them.

Awesome! Haven't found anything wrong. But fuck me, I'm too stupid to find anything wrong in this huge dump of bliss!

thank you my friend

I got the deleted "4 Red Calx" in 320kbps with frequencies up to 20khz. If you speed up "4 red calx[slo]" by exactly 100% into half the time, the timing matches up 100% perfectly. I assume rich did the reverse to make his slow.

 

I don't know if I'll keep this modified version myself, seems kind of like blasphemy. What do you guys think?

 

tl;dr

320kbps of the deleted 4 Red Calx by speeding up 4 red calx[slo] by 2x. Do they match up perfectly?
