How can they forgot to mention Plaid is also playing at Rex Club on thursday. It'll be the most warpy 3 days of my life.

'Cause this was a post about Aphex Twin...?

I think he was referring to the Warp article

Just got back from the Paris show. Awesome set, very tight and definitely up there with this year's Sonar. No huge surprises but just great great rave, acid and jungle towards the end, ending in noise. Some analord (great mydoom mix) and tuss in there. Richard thumb up and dancing with enthusiasm at the end applause. The rampant hipster vibe didn't detract from the show... But why don't more ppl dance to such great dance music?

Met a few younger fans there, blown away by their first aphex gig.. And talking about their love for digeridoo and SAW. Nice.

Incredible show. It was my first Aphex gig and probably one of the best concerts I've ever been at.

F***** lol. That clearly was a dispise gesture adressed to a "pitchford" audience. Richard barely never makes any signs toward the crowd so I doubt I would "thanks" or "enjoy" such a terrible band of hipsters. Don't you think that shooting the audience for nearly two hour in order to distort their faces and turns them into monsters is not inoccent?

The show was ace, it's a fact, but it clearly was sadical and hostile to the public, as often with Aphex Twin, and this is what makes him interresting.

damn! wish i could go to this. Halloween wkend 'n all...

edit: although, do the French even do Halloween?

still would be good to see DaPhex anyway.

All the times I've seen him minus the very 1st time he's given thumbs up to the audience before quietly departing with his laptop....

doesn't seem unreasonable that he enjoys the attention....

even if you despise a lot of the crowd.

He really had a scary face while doing so lol.

Anyway, that doesn't change the fact that afx's shows are sadistics. Pain and pleasure form a good couple.

just saw on youtube he played a subtle blend. what a tune

anyone know what this is?

Nice, he's still playing this

YES! That is a fairly decent quality recording of the Manchester track as well

how could you forget him playing the Manchester track? I'm astonished.

sounded like vibert/simmonds at the end

It sounds like he's added a few more flourishes. Super clean recording. Just need a continuous mix and I'll be happy for a few more months.

awesome to hear that being played more, one of the videos from youtube the bass from a subtle blend completely washes out the audio on the recording.

I'm digging the tweaks to the audio on that. Hope he plays the Manchester track again when he returns to Manchester again this month.

squarepusher did that digital delay feedback thing first. So enough of this people bite off of him. He borrows as much as anyone. He does it well mind u

yeah, rips off people's demo tapes too...
