The Aphex Twin Music on TV


Recommended Posts

not really from the television, but my friend said there was a tune from analord on NPR this morning

was watching the community access channel yesterday, a show called JAAM E JAM USA (arabic and indian music videos). usually it's just pop singers, but a sort of trancey one with samples came on. all of a sudden the chorus came on and I (stoned) immediately recognized it as an aphex melody, but I couldn't place it. soon it was driving me crazy so I ran to grab my recorder.

by the time I got back I realized it was just the synth line from Popcorn.

I heard Flim on the Weather Channel last night, while they were doing my area's local forecast.

I heard that first Analouge Bubblebath 1 track on a Swedish documentary.

 

Damn that track is so fucking nice Iam just going to post it! :rolleyes:

Jesus fucking Christ, I'm watching Harry Hill's TV Burp right now on ITV (they basically make fun of clips from the past week's TV shows), and he's showing a clip of a Sky1 show called Got To Dance and I was FUCKING ASTONISHED to hear Ventolin (Cylob Mix) being danced to.

 

It scares me how excited I get when I recognize music on the TV, especially in this case. I guess that's why I started this thread. Hearing this amazing Cylob remix on a high-profile dance show, as the centerpiece of a section of the show, is awesome enough. But to hear it repeated on one of my favourite regular comedy shows is almost too much for me to handle! I think I'm gonna have a heart attack...

UPDATE: OMFG he actually used the same track in a follow-up joke during the second half of the program! For a gag, he plays a CD called "Now That's What I Call Ghost Music 1" on a CD player. After listening and commenting on it, he says, "now let's see what's on the other side" and he flips over the CD from the read side to the other side. When he presses play, Ventolin (Cylob Mix) begins playing, and Harry begins dancing comically, as to replicate the clips from Sky1's Got To Dance.

 

I am absolutely amazed by all of this. One of my favourite IDM tracks, joked about by Harry Hill. I love you all.

Im gonna have bump this, I heard the intro to Tha in a documentary called Are we Alone in the Universe on RTE One yesterday afternoon, a Discovery style doc that looked at government experiments and extraterrestrial intelligence from the last fifty years. Im pretty sure some of Enos music was in there too.

So I was in the kitchen cutting up some strawberries when I heard this very familiar melody faintly, somewhere. I thought it was coming from my computer in the other room when I identified it as being track #7 from SAWII. Then I heard the melody go away completely, and then fade back again. I then knew it wasn't coming from my computer. Sure enough, my parents were watching a T.V. show in the same room (our kitchen and our living room are connected) and needless to say, I dropped the fucking knife and ran over to the T.V. and embarrassingly had one of my life's few geek-out moments. But hey I'd never heard Aphex on T.V. before. It completely caught me off guard.

 

 

Here's the show they were watching. It starts at 5:12:

Apparently scientists like a little Aphex? :braindance:
