[manmower]

wow nme right on top of things. i especially like "According to Fact"

 

in the future people will think thats what fact means

 

And if you look at the FACT article, they in turn refer to the google doc for that info, and link to the story where they mistakenly credited WATMM for that.

Too scared to comment on Soundcloud. What if he replies? What if he doesn't reply? What if he thinks I'm a cunt? Can't deal with any of the possibilities

If your question relates to a song make sure you mention how you're literally in tears listening to the track right now.

[Richie Sombrero]

ask him if his wife and Squarepusher's gf know each other as they are both Eastern European and why do Eastern europeans love IDM dudes.

 

Definitely ask that.

[En Ex]

Ask him when Cottage1 and 2 are coming out.

I read allot of you raving about how superb this collection of 'unrealised' works from AFX is, but a large portion of the SC tracks aren't that great imo. Some of them are amazing, but to me it's just a handful of them. There are many good tracks, but there are also allot that make me go "meh...whatever"

 

However, I consider all these tracks as a whole are an amazing insight into his creative process. Even the tracks I don't really like, collectively have given me so much insight in the way he experiments with music. That's what is so valuable, not to mention inspirational about this SC dump, but I can definitly see why he might consider allot of these to not be release worthy in a proper sense.

Yeah, basically. Still amazing however, and AFX B-Sides > most everyone else's A-Sides.

[indulin]

just ask. he identified this track for me he played at donaufestival krems too though it was completely off topic. i think hes quite spontaneous and im just lucky with his replies. maybe he likes that track a lot too :-):

Wait. What if all these videos of UFO bullshit is leading to a MfM release?

 

Think about it. What are the most "common" alien? Martians.

+ respond to all the comments!

since Cylob is mad at RDJ, does that mean we won't be getting Joyrex tape #11?

(it's my fav off that tape and would really likea higher res copy)

[Leonod33]

+ Ziggomatic 16.

 

But seriously...I think Rich is going to release Melodies from Mars, but the twist is, the songs will actually BE from Mars. Reading the "document" about the Pyramids he posted while listening to tracks like Fogbeak and Slothscrape, I almost feel like we're seeing into RDJ's soul.

 

In all seriousness, over the years, listening to things like SAW2 has always put me in a reflective, 'thinking about possibilites/life/universe' mood. I wonder if that was partly the intention with some of his stuff, or maybe the other way round, the music he makes itself makes Rich thoughtful afterwards.

 

I don't know. But I bet he gets better quality buds than me.
