How old are the Tuss tracks?

Seeing as some of these tracks popped up in sets before they were actually released as "The Tuss", does anyone know how old some of these tracks actually date back?

centuries

milliseconds

units

15 hard centimeters

i'd say they are fairly recent as far as aphex/afx shit goes

feet

forty rods (to the hogshead, and that's the way he likes it)?

I'd say probably as far back as 2002/2003 maybe earlier.

tomorrow

I would say the melodies, and much of the chords and shiz date back to the ancient time of teh analord while teh b33tz are the most recent.

Richard got into analogue equipment again seriously around 2000-2001, so Analord and The Tuss are the public fruits of that labour.

Less than twelve parsecs.

they weren't actually composed prior to your listening to them, rather when you think you're listening to them as prerecorded music, RDJ is improvising on some synths in real time and transmitting the music to your stereo/computer using his mind

So between Druqks and his Analord/Tuss period from 2000-2001 he made a shit load of music. I wonder whats he's been working on all this time since... maybe a life?

So with all the royalties from his re-relases of HAB, Classics, SAW, and the release of Chosen Lords and the Tuss, and money from Rephlex and... money from songs in movies, NOT TO MENTION HE WAS RICH ALREADY! He never needs to work again O well it was fun while it lasted Richard

The Tuss stuff mostly sounds like Reason or put together in a slightly different work process compared to Analord tracks. It's the layering that gives it away with the Tuss and the percussion which smacks of Reason. The Tuss tracks sound quite tinny and flat for analogue lacking the depth and warmth that the Analord tracks have. I bet a lot of the analogue bits were sampled on the Tuss tracks.

lol!!

nah....

its all custom gear surely

My theory is that maybe Richard makes a butt-load of tracks, and then tries to group them in a manner of cohesiveness in an album. Recently, this has been making sense to me.

He obviously makes a lot of music, the is agreed. Maybe he just lets the pile grow until he can say, "okay, I've got 18-25 tracks that all have a common thread. maybe its a good time to widdle those down so that what I end up with is a strong aura for the final product".

I could be way off, but for some reason, judging by his quotes on laziness, It makes it seem more plausible than him vacationing all the time, bouncing into the studio and busting out a bunch of tracks that could make a proper record.

I could be totally dumb though.
