He's a genius of LUUURRRVVVEEE.

 

Imagine for a moment what it's like to be Mr Twin. With everyone constantly shouting at him GO ON REINVENT MUSIC AGAIN YOU CUNT!!! every time he goes to the loo. Wouldn't you just want to kick back and make music just to entertain yourself instead of having to meet other people's expectations of you? I think he won't release another album until he thinks that no one cares any more, or no one is paying attention any more.

 

So if we all just turn our backs and go "Album? What album? Who cares? We don't know nothing about no stinking album" then Mr Twin will leap out from behind a tree while we're not looking and leave a lovely pile of steaming musiks for our eardrums.

 

Yes. Let's close all the threads about the new album and let's discuss only pre-drukqs material. Let's. There aren't enough threads about each and every SAWII song and AB3's tracklist. Oh, and let's not forget the various bands and bedroom artists that have covered Avril 14th. Let's. Why not speculate some more on which UI releases are of Richard's hand and if CAT023 is ever going to be unearthed, yes unearthed (I'm playing Mass Effect). And by the way who made that cool "gangster rap" tune at the beginning of the Windowlicker video and how many windows does that limo have anyway? Let's discuss why Alberto Balsalm is in everyone's top 5 list of favorite Aphex tracks. Let's talk about the overpriced vinyl release of HAB2. Let's talk about how ignorant people are for thinking that "Outside Kickass Violin Solo", "Techno Tetris" and "Star Wars remix" are not tracks by RDJ and last but not least: let's have one more discussion, for old time's sake, about heat and night. Let's.

You know what? That's why there's chocolate *and* vanilla.

why is richard such a selfish bastard. the way he keeps all that music to himself and doesnt care about other people listening to it whatsoever, only releasing music when he 'needs money'

 

i dont like it. it makes me mad

 

Because he is not making music for you, my egocentric friend. He makes music because he likes. And believe that you are lucky for having so much from richard.

hes a dick

Post of the year.

theory: if you want a new proper 100% original material formally-richardjames/aphextwin album you have to do one of two things:

1) completely blow him out of the water and make something that would challenge his ego. this would be akin to beating kobe bryant in the NBA finals: you know that next year he's going to come back and win the whole damn thing.

2) find out where he banks and completely neutralize his account. i've gotten the idea that he's done pretty well for himself financially and i believe he has a family now in his late 30s. if rephlex is paying the bills and he's comfortable financially, it's not like he necessarily owes us new material. if he wants to release old/er tracks a la analord or even slag off and release c-sides outtakes and aborted versions of tracks (the "new" christmas analords) he's technically earned the right to do that. however, i'm convinced that if he needed to make a big grab at cash he knows he could always shackle up in the bedroom and crank something out. while i think that much of his "legend" of being a guy who makes a ton of tracks every day mainly for himself and his friends and then has to be poked and prodded the nudged and bugged to release some as albums is exactly that (legend), when you're as talented as richard james is i'm fairly certain that you possess the unique ability to sit down and crank out great music whenever you feel so inclined.

Sadly i own this cd. I had done some research looking for some new cds and noticed that aphex twin was allways poping up. I read some news/history about it and figured id go out and buy a cd. Big Mistake. I love experimental but my god this was bad. It was as if someone with tons of knowldge about electronic music got a 6 pack of honey brown, chugged it and begain slapping things together and calling it a song. After reading about how legendary this guy is i was let down after hearing the cds.
