Rephlex New Rephlex!

I don't think you're doomed if you sound like Aphex. I think that's what makes Rephlex wanna sign you.

...and then your album won't get released. yeah. True.

The Rephlex HQ is probably filled to the brim with ketamine. And not much else.

judging the workrate, I'd barter this over mushrooms....

anyone that sort of sounds like Aphex is doomed. You can't sound more Aphex than Aphex. Not that we don't love a good second best attempt

yeah, that. when you emulate, you're always playing catch-up, never #1

it can be a useful learning exercise; just don't make a career of it.

very true! i don't think it's possible to make much of a career out of it, tho, anyway.

Xyrofen, his new stuff was released via astrobotnia/ovuca bandcamps. Unless you're talking about even newer stuff? :O

I don't know what I'm talking about. I had thought I remembered reading it when Boom Blaster and whatnot was released on Rephlex in late 2009.

Maybe it's the calm before the storm.....
