Richard D James SoundCloud - A Gift To The Fans

[Allize]

have you performed the ritual?

[pierlu]

In a world devoid of hope, aphex twin comes and brings back hope for us

[Key]

 

It's kind of funny that we get 112 tracks, almost 9 hours, of new music, and so many people are pointing out the "Japan" track that was released over 20 years ago as a highlight lel

 

I mean, what are you doing listening to 9 hours of leftovers when you haven't even listened to the official releases

The problem is it actually is a highlight because it's fucking excellent.

 

I guess not hearing a total of 3 or 4 tracks that aren't widely distributed anymore means I can't aphex. Oh well, I won't be losing any sleep over it.

 

 

With the praise both this one and Space Beat are getting, I imagine a lot of people are going to be digging out 26 Remixes and discovering some underrated gems.

[atypic]

8 utopia isn't getting enough attention. It's like a prostate massage. Not that I've ever had one but I guess that's how it feels.

 

So far, I've been coming back to that one the most.

 

Any thoughts on why the Red Calx metronome just drops out after the first minute (or half minute)?

 

Also, tracks like Organ, the later stuff, I think were not release ready but were more like detailed sketches leading up to release ready versions.

luke vibert remix is amazing

 

think most of that might be because of how good the original is lol, but the remix is also special itself

26 mixes is an amazing collection, oft overlooked IMO.

[Guest Londonskater]

Yep. I definitely have two different versions of 11 phlangebeat - as I mentioned before.

The longer works its way into Ventolin (Praze-An-Beeble) for a good few bars unlike the shorter one which kind of just hints at it.

 

I'm without Internet (aside from my phone) until tomorrow. At that point, I'll upload both so someone infinitely wiser than me can dissect it.

That's not my point though, I mean, I don't care that you didn't listen to every single obscure track like a TRVE APHEX FAN should, don't take it so seriously. But I still find it funny that, of the more than a hundred new tracks we got, people gush over the only one that's already been released. Not in a "oh god why haven't you listened to every single track like a REAL FAN LIKE ME" way, but in a "well that's ironic" way

Makes sense to me, though.

It confirms that this track was "the one" to release.

 

Correct choice made, RDJ.

[Guest colonelchibbers]

Does anyone understand why a huge number of the later tracks take on the same regular rising and falling wave shape? Were they like that before and I just didn't notice or does that have something to do with his mastering?

[Richie Sombrero]

Oh man, listening to red calx then red calx [slo] was fucking profound. Like some Disintegration Tapes up in here.
