First song on Windowlicker Music Video...

Does anyone know what the title is of the first song on the Windowlicker music video? It is the one that is playing while the two are driving in the car at the beginning.

this has been posted many times before. some think it's a Vibert mix of Windowlicker, others, just a hip hop mix by Aphex himself.

Theres something about the scratching noise in it that makes that part of the video 10x funnier than it would have been. It has such a wierd rediculous quality to it. Know what i mean?

heh, i have to say i really like that scratching....

all i know is that it's windowlicker...and i think it's a pretty amazing version....i'd by that on vinyl...as well as that version that is on the japanese release that's a loop just repeating over and over....(at least i think it's on the japan release)

it's just the bassline slowed, with some scratching. i'm sure richard just remixed it for that part of the video.

he did a similar thing on that new live video torino thing, windowlicker remix

The track was made specially for the video and is not on any release as a separate track. There were rumours that Luke Vibert did it, but that is unconfirmed.

Turn it up real loud and you can hear a high pitched tone coming from the TV where it was recorded from and then mixed in some sort of wave editor program

Well it has been cleared up now.

That Song is on Cunningham DVD Versions aswell

Incidentally, in the Aphex Twin live set from 1997-01-02, between Heliosphan and Inkey$ (32:21 into the recording), there's something that sounds like an early version of the Windowlicker limousine's noise. Presumably it was originally a picture or something, as it's more of a screech than what you might call music. :)

Ooh, it's in other live sets of that era too. I guess it was probably just something he was tinkering around with for a while, and it came in handy when they needed a sound effect...

is this the best copy the internet has to offer?

sounds too good to be vibert. has that aphex perfection. sorry luke

I always wanted Richard to do some sort of bastardized electronic Hip Hop after hearing that tune, you never know what he has in store so here's hoping he releases it in some shape or form :)

No. Someone got a bit "creative" with that...

Here's just that section from the video.

it is a shame that it wasn't on any versions of the single, because some of those demo versions aren't anywhere near as good or interesting as this. actually i'd say that theyre among his weakest material. but this is pretty great and couldve been expanded just a bit to make what couldve been one of his better tracks, up there with flim maybe. well, maybe not flim but approaching that echelon

Sounds a bit like a pitched down, slowed down clip of windowlicker itself.
