Mag Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 yeah youre right, the track is clearly titled '5' in a reference to '4'. He didn't truly start inserting random numbers into his track titles til Drukqs. The numbers are just a cataloging artifact, if you want to keep them in to honor the slapdash spirit of the thing then fine, but I'll take them out cause I'm sure they werent present when the tracks were created/named. wha wha wha whaaat? it's called version number of the tracks. it's because computers plaese don't use word random and aphex in one sentence. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorro Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Put the ones you really like into a folder called 'really good' Put the others into another folder called 'not quite so good but still pretty good' Also take the time to go back to Soundcloud and 'Like' the ones that you really like - this might be useful for RDJ if he ever thinks about putting a subset out as a proper release. Why no 'quite good' category? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorro Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 gorfman666 did some nice artwork Decided to Split it up into 8 albums/14 tracks each. Named it "The Ravers Friend Vol. 1-8" and it plays in the order it was released. made some art too. This will be a little easier for me to dive into. Do you mind sharing these beautiful artwork in high resolution? Thx man, oh what a week! http://imgur.com/qGdq48K,x9qawYP,wqxxQgD,NxSD9E2,asTjrsz,mpYJgKP,TX8xgWA,9zI3jRW Thank you kindly. Seconded!

ZoeB Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 while it's admirably creepy, it doesn't really work as a concept as there vast changes in years/styles on the what you're seeing as individual tapes and things like there being three tracks 7s on "old tape #6" Yeah, my guess are these are some compilations he made way back. I think the numbers starting each track name are the track number they would be in an official release if they got one, unrelated to their track number in these compilations. So, for instance, various tracks from Analogue Bubblebath 6 are strewn across tapes 6 and 12, out of order. Others aren't on any of these compilations. This is just trying to guess at his working method here, and probably inaccurate. I can only speak for myself: I tend to work on making several tracks together that I think would fit together on a single release, and sometimes even get as far as numbering which order I think they'd go in, before changing my mind and using some of them on one release and others on another release, or not at all. I think we're seeing some of that going on. Like how Fingerbib was likely going to be on Melodies From Mars, where it fit well, then got whisked off to the Richard D. James Album, where it provided an interesting contrast to, or rest from, the rest of the album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did for a sec when he wrote that, but now I think I'll go with 'Sc' for the whole thing. Not sure that I want to change AFX to AFx though.
