Uros Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 So, tipping my hat to everyone of you who guessed that Rod Whitters is actually MNLTH. I've been thinking to myself that god, would love a Rod Whitters release and it seems that here it finally is. Ziberterai previously known as earlt tsaps: Also other familiar moments here and there. Hopefully not a vinyl-only release....or then hopefully will be able to find some good rips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psn Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Ah, that's why that track was so familiar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uros Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 That Q-Express fooled me a bit since it's a different mix of one of the Rod Whitters untitled tracks I ripped from the YT account. I thought I already had that MNLTH track in my library until I realized that it was actually an unreleased Whitters piece. AFAIK others seem to be the same versions heard before, apart from the first track which is new to me. BTW OA mentioned on their facebook page that their releases will get a digital treatment at some point so there's hope. Or then Dave could include this to his bc (plz). Someone with facebook/twitter/tinder/whatever please ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trilobot Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 This guy has gone release crazy. He really has, but I'm ok with it. Could always use some more acid in my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginerpri Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 YES! As said, these were all previously released on that Rod Whitters' YouTube account. I contacted Dave on Soundcloud some months ago asking if he was planning on releasing those beautiful tracks, but he never replied. This means way more than that reply I was waiting for! Thank you Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very AFXish. recognize a lot of these. dunno if more were in there or if they were jsut on his soundcloud. rinsed it too much tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diabrotikos Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 One of the comments of the Rod Whitters "earlt tsaps" is "Clearly, Rod is a twin", and i think it sums up what many of us are trying to achieve musically : understand what makes Aphex music so mesmerizing, and become a "twin". Everytime a new artist who's got this special thing about his music, that remind us instantly of Aphex, we can say "is a twin" as he is a twin in spirit, and it fits perfectly with this constant musical reversed engineering all those electro artists are doing all the time, which is borderline cloning. In this period of near infinite information flow, we can see in real time how musical genres are born an instant, an how they are ridiculed the next, and how those ideas act like microbes, eating, exchanging and blending with each others. We are a stack of complex cells, following a strict programming, and one of the key command is "blend with each others", but a lot of other rules, and most commonly lazy programming (think No Man's Sky kind of lazy) are messing up the whole "humanity" task. I like to imagine that Aphex music is a call to people who share the same vision and feelings of music of his, whatever their native language is, because it makes us feeling good to find someone who share the same feelings, because a human being has a reflecting mind by nature (i won't go deeper cause we'd have to debate about God or whatever religious bullshit). It's like that for every artist, but i found that when it applies to instrumental music, it's even more fascinating and alien. Even more when you consider the "stack of cells" idea (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/They%27re_Made_Out_of_Meat ) tl;dr = we are stacks of cells trying to communicate (with difficulty) with each others, and Monolith is an Aphex twin cell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goDel Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Loving what I'm hearing in these clips! Even though I'll be the idiot hoping for a digital release somewhere in the not so distant future... :-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amen Warrior Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Jesus christ the samples of this sound amazing. Can't wait. He's captured the early aphex sound in the best possible way :) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amen Warrior Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 I have absolutely caned the samples of this. On repeat. I cannot wait. I dunno why monolith is so hit and miss for me, I'm not fussed about Trax at all and wasn't keen on Welcome. This and all the photodementia stuff is fucking amazing though. Want it now!!

Complete opposite for me. I was properly addicted to Welcome, and the Trax samples sound super good (I'll order it eventually, I swear!) This (and the demo tape) aren't really blowing me away as much as those. On a similar note, I also prefer Analord/The Tuss to SAW85-92/Polygon Window, so it's nothing against Dave's output, it's just me tastes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
