YEK Posted October 17, 2022 Report Share Posted October 17, 2022 It seems like all of his fast bpm stuff drill and others are all done on the computer with trackers. Thoughts? Like almost the majority of his music, at least more than half is done with trackers. I wonder what he's using. Probably renoise.

koolkeyZ865 Posted October 18, 2022 Report Share Posted October 18, 2022 I'm pretty sure that Drukqs was the last album of his to be produced on a tracker. He may or may not have sequenced bits and pieces of tracks here and there with tracker software, but I highly doubt that he's arranged a full track using one in years.

Dragon Posted October 18, 2022 Report Share Posted October 18, 2022 i remember RDJ said that Bogdan Raczynski was a huge inspiration for Drukqs because he was also doing crazy stuff with trackers around the same time as him... i have a huge folder of these NES audio files by BR but i had no idea they were on youtube until just now endera3rd 1 Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide Dragon's signature Hide all signatures faith <3 Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/103151-aphex-twin-and-trackers/#findComment-2928934 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cern Posted October 18, 2022 Report Share Posted October 18, 2022 No not half of his music done on Trackers. That was just around 96-01 The album Boku Ma Wakaran inspired RDJ, if you hear it is like many tracks are sequenced in that way. It stil sounds absolutely amazing even if just using 12bit samples and couple of Sinewaves. I think with a tracker is the easiest way to making crazy break beats but also good melodies and just make the tracks. Furnace is a Tracker that is going up now in popularity, mostly for Computer music, but this tracker is very good geosmina, Uros and cloud capture 3 Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/103151-aphex-twin-and-trackers/#findComment-2928941 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amen Warrior Posted October 23, 2022 Report Share Posted October 23, 2022 Wouldnt jungle generally have been a bigger inspiration, and line up more timeline wise, than bogdan? 94-95 there were so many fucking insane jungle tracks coming out, almost all done with trackers, I always assumed that piqued afx interest and he did hangable auto bulb around that time (which I've assumed was an experiment to see if he could make jungle style tracks using single drum hits rather than a full cut up break) Silent Member 1 Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/103151-aphex-twin-and-trackers/#findComment-2929434 Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Drukqs specific is highly inspired by Bogdans Boku No Wakaran. The easy Sinus waves melodiess, some sampled voice singing in the background while the breaks going heavy later. Very original. Maybe it was even that made RDJ to try a Tracker for the first time I don't know but Im happy he got inspiration for this because Drukqs is a masterpiece and also not a proper jungle at all.

The Cirklon was not even released back then Death fuck The tuss to me feels like multitracked hardware sequenced stuff, or computer sequenced stuff multitracked in and manipulated. Like polished multitrack takes of analord era learnings. The breaks are very simple, don't feel trackery to me but I could be wrong. I know he was doing rs7000 (?) stuff back then so maybe, RS7000. The tuss is one thing he hasn't talked about that much in depth, but definitely my favorite era and the one that I always go back to reference the most when doing my own music. (also been on a hardware kick in the last few years). I could be totally on the wrong track though. Hmm, he also talks about using Ableton on talking2u. Seems like he switches up a lot kausto, koolkeyZ865, aencre and 1 other 4 Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide Bubba69's signature Hide all signatures https://intervallux.bandcamp.com/ Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/103151-aphex-twin-and-trackers/#findComment-2930121 Share on other sites More sharing options...
