AFX Unreleased Promo EP

It's by the same people behind the BOC bootleg. US pressing, same £11.99 price, crap design, available from a seller of the BOC bootleg. And if you were to judge this record by the shit quality MP3-sourced job they did on the BOC record, it won't even have aphex music on it, it'll be one of the fake Analord releases from that time.

 

btw, lol @ the "repress"

 

Someone's raking in the cash.

You mean Clone Records? I highly doubt that.

Had you not been given the heads up about this Joyrex?

what the fuck is going on here

Maybe I'm just ignorant, but what do Clone Records have to do with the BOC bootleg EP? I do own it, and it looks distinctly American to me - the shape of the pressing, low-quality reground vinyl, inner sleeve with rounded corners, thick card cover.. Clone pressings on their own labels don't look like this, they appear to be made at the same facilities that Warp, Rephlex, ART etc use. Not that any of this is conclusive proof, but..

Picadilly Records site has removed it... doesn't come up on search anymore. I smell hoax.

 

Nah, it's still there. Look in pre-orders or filter to search sold out items.

 

Well, I must be thick then - because no matter how I try with their frankly shit search engine, I still don't see it - right click and choose "view this frame in a new window/tab" and then paste the URL from that page here.

 

Nevermind, I figured it out - First click on Pre-Orders on the right, then search for 'afx' on the left, and once the results come up, tick off "show sold out items" on the right and submit. It's right after the HAB CDEP.

now you know how i feel when i try to save an attached image from this forum

this smells like a bootleg to me.

there will never be a new album. richard's gone deaf; blew all his cash on meth and a failed clothing line designed by nannou

not bootleg

if not a bootleg what do you make of these posts from xltronic:

mber-2004.html

this is three tracks apparently... i think that "email" is fake

how do you know ? (on bcm post)

btw, the BoC bootleg was sold at Clone's shop, not released on Clone records. (like Carl craig bootleg Lps that were sold at warpmart but were not, of course on Warp records).

At Warp20 New York this weekend, I asked one of the guys from the Bleep office about the Aphex Twin signings. He confirmed that Aphex Twin has signed on to Warp for three more albums, but that RDJ has made so much money touring this year, it was unlikely that there would be an album out within the next year.

He also confirmed the obvious... that they have no control over when the music gets to them or what the music is at all. They get what they get from RDJ when they get it.

it's not like a mom+pop store getting it in and just taking it at face value.

Exactly, I've been buying from Piccadilly for what must be 20-odd years and they know their shit. They're not fucking stupid and I just can't see them of all people trying to pull a fast one. That said, I'll take this whole thing with a pinch of salt just in case.

I feel cheated out of New afx :( :/...

so the "pre-aphex release" scenario is again playing out well. I myself do not expect anything at this point, one way or the other. If this is a phishin deal then lol, sucks for you guys someone sure is clever... if this is those old "warp promo" shits, then lol... If it's new awesome shit, then .

maybe HudMo was afx

What bugs me most about this is that there's loads of great unreleased Aphex music (either on vinyl or on any format) that could have been put on this record - Melodies From Mars, Analogue Bubblebath 5, Philosophy Of Sound And Machine... How could someone cock up so badly?

OMG IT'S KONKLAVER EP SPECIAL PROMO EDITION!
