ne1 got that pic of aphex in his studio? circa 1994

hehe got it

you got the glue sniffer interview?

are you talking about the liveact when he brought his equipment to or are you talking about the one that was on discogs showing him sitting in front of his mac

Discogs? eh? This one?

image fail - try it on their server

Almost 100% guarantee you that's not a studio, that's a publicist's office.

broken/no images, FAIL

dag NABBIT.

If you're talking about the 12th photo down on this page:

http://www.discogs.com/viewimages?artist=Aphex+Twin

CORRECT link this time

(the only one with a Mac in it as far as I can see)

That's a publicist's office. Release schedule on wall, promo photos, packets of press clippings, promotional postcards taped to the filing cabinet - never seen a recording studio that looked like that. Also, the tortured expression on Mr. Twin's face = total "OMG I have to talk to IDIOTS about my rekkid oh noes"

agree, the only picture besides the live one that seems to show his studio is this:

have you seen the original analord cover artworks that leaked when rephlex.com was changed to a shop?

some of the cover artworks have much higher resolution as if they where stock images while others had very low resolution. I wonder if they really are all pictures taken from his equipment

publicist office lol.

Richard's a pretty good photographer; I can't imagine him using lo-res images for the covers unless they were re-processed by someone else for rephlex.com.

NONE of the images are stock; that I am sure of. Richard likes to personalize his releases with his photos (see SAW II, DrukQs, etc.)

I would tend to think it'd be the other way around - that he'd be more likely to have a larger/higher quality file of an original photo. (Unless some of the photos were taken with digital cameras, and some with film cameras and were just lo-res scans)

Anyway, didn't think it could possibly be the image that Chris posted about because that is so clearly not a Mac.

THIS is the only 90s-era pic I could find of him with a *Mac* and this is TOTALLY a publicist's office, not a studio.

How can you be sure that's a 90's era pic? Sure, the Mac(s) might be from the late 90's, but the VAIO he's using is NOT from the 90's at all.

Also, why would he have his laptop with him in a publicist's office?

he's sampling the sound of warp laughing all the way to the bank

/

maybe he gets a really juicy reverb from that orange carton

actually, that blates looks like it's been photoshopped in, and the real pic is him sat on the bog or something

I take my laptop with me pretty much everywhere. Don't you? Or at least I did before I got an iPhone.

Email or chat interviews is the main reason I'd have had my laptop in my publicist's office. Wait, I lie - that and ripping MP3s of the other bands they handle. Can't remember if Warp have an in-house publicist or if they use a PR firm.

Anyway, it might not be 90s - but it's clearly not a very recent pic as he's got long hair.

think youll find that pic is in about 2003

surprised to see this thread still alive hehe

chunky was of course referring to http://forum.watmm.com/topic/31639-rare-pics-of-rdj/page__view__findpost__p__1328278

aint got no glue/petrol sniffer interview yet

probably jimmy joyrex has it hidden up his sleeves

This thread is great, it's like playing Cluedo!

I deduce that it was PROFESSOR TWIN in the PUBLICISTS OFFICE with the iMAC!

You're RONG! I deduce that it was PROFESSOR TWIN in the STUDIO with the AMIGA!

You're ALL RONG!!! it was COLONEL JOYREX in the BILLIARDS ROOM with the BANHAMMER

lol do you have a twitter feed? I would definitely add you

Oh, I give up. I can't seem to PM you. PM me your twitter account and I'll add you. You should be able to work out who I am, coz all I talk about is radical feminism, bad maths jokes and Aphex Twin.

warp offices

Just asked - Warp uses in-house publicists. Ergo, your being right does not make me wrong.
