Guest Chogg Posted October 19, 2008 Report Share Posted October 19, 2008 He clearly knows his shit about theory but any skills he may have in terms of playing an "actual" instrument are a mystery. It's not too hard to believe. I can program complex rhythms but I can't play an actual drum set worth shit.

YEK Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 modey: well he said doesn't know how to play the piano. i find it hard to believe though.. maybe he can't "classically" but he sure knows his way around a keyboard...

marf Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 you have to play the gx-1 manually. No midi. So he probably played that. Aphex's melodies are really simple. He is just brilliant at hearing what works. Ive taught myself a lot of aphex melodies on the guitar and they are really really simple. Dunna if that means anything Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/39080-can-richard-play-teh-drumz/page/2/#findComment-856407 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest hahathhat Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 (edited) the man does electronic music - i wager he can get an idea down with mpc drum pads if he wanted to, even if he couldn't play the track live. he mentioned writing a lot of his melodies on a keyboard, just mashing the keyboard in the pattern he wants, then moving the notes where they should be over the next hour or so. in short, he's not a performance artist, and from what i can tell of his style he does what he needs to get what he wants, and get it quickly. so, he can probably play a good number of instruments enough to aid in sequencing, get some sampled loops, but he's not going to drop some mad chopin on a steinway at symphony hall. efex skin said: im hungry and that looks gooood Edited October 20, 2008 by hahathhat Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/39080-can-richard-play-teh-drumz/page/2/#findComment-856642 Share on other sites More sharing options...
