amnesia Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I have had the pleasure of some free time and listened to ABB5 again after no hearing it for a year or so...it got me thinking that Richard should release this now, as we all have mp3 versions and most of us would buy it....its such a great album!

Guest 10010 Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 kinda agree.. since they have already (recently) re-pressed it on vinyl..

Guest Analogue Wings Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 It would be kinda cool if AFXs next CD release was something that handt come out on another format beforehand Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/3573-rich-should-release-abb5-as-we-all-have-it-on-mp3/#findComment-71427 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mushroom Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 It's not that great, though I'm missing the first track(which is generally considered the best one).

Guest Quoth Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 He should work on some new material instead! I liked the Analord series, but It's time for some new developments I think.

Guest Diao Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 I agree. This is my favorite RDJ "release", and I would gladly pay for a tangible and legit copy it. Its minimalism is so playful and joyous, its a wonder why everyone doesn't absolutely adore it. #8, #7, and #1 are some of his best work, IMO.

Joyrex Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 There was talk about 3 or 4 years ago about releasing AB5, but nothing came of it. MFM does NOT exist on WAX - only Richard's original DATs and around 11 cassettes made for friends/WARPLords™.

Joyrex Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 Are you saying this because you have seen or heard a vinyl recording of it, or are you assuming? Reason being, MFM was actually just a collection of tracks Richard was working on, that happened to get the legend of being an album he was going to release. I find it hard to think that he'd press a collection of related tracks onto a test pressing without the intent of being a planned release to the point of having a CAT# and such.

(it was just a white label, with much *better* sound quality, of course..) thats was about 3 or more years ago. i cant see any reasons why he would lie to me aboot this... did they re-press ab5 also, or were those just a "leftovers" from first pressing. im thinking, maybe they pressed those two (ab5 & mfm) at the same time.. i dont know. so yes, im not grant so i cannot be 80% sure .... :ermm: Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/3573-rich-should-release-abb5-as-we-all-have-it-on-mp3/#findComment-81967 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DjQ Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 It's like Richard likes dicking around with his fans with such pressings and then not releasing them. I asked this question a while back about why he does not play these tracks live and all I got form people is that he never intended to release them. If so then why give some (AB5s) away with the Anal binder? He should put the shit on DVD-A and be revolutionary for, 1. releasing something that is sought after and will sell like hell fire and 2. being the first electrono artist to release something on DVD-A. Why not?? Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/3573-rich-should-release-abb5-as-we-all-have-it-on-mp3/#findComment-82816 Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirm Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 (edited) found AB5 to d/l just the other week its really quite nice but not worth a 1000 quid or whatever people pay on ebay!.. seeing as i now have it not that bothered if its released or not, would rather him release something i hadn’t heard! lol Oh and Quote But I think the Analord stuff is too easy and doesn't show where his skills really are. Each to there own but complete disagree with that statement, to me aphex's genius isn't in his Crazy technical skill but more the atmosphere & emotion that come across in his tracks & how he can write truly beautiful sublime melodies (ya cant teach that shit lol) & for me analord has loads of that & there fore I think it shows exactly where his skills Edited February 10, 2006 by kirm Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/3573-rich-should-release-abb5-as-we-all-have-it-on-mp3/#findComment-83517 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyrex Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 Well, of course the music is not worth 1000 quid, it's the record itself that is due to it's rarity - a case where the medium has outpriced the media contained within.
