Rubin Farr Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 Looking back on releases like RDJ album with its bright sounds and childlike melodies (I believe Richard said he was in love at the time of recording), the mellow sounds of the SAW series, or the darkness of Come to Daddy, do you think his next album will be consistent in tone, or just a collection of tracks he's pulled from his (hopefully recent) library? Look where he is now; in his 40s, divorced, a father, a millionaire, label owner and somewhat of a hermit. Will that be reflected in his tracks? I'd like to hear a sense of maturity in his future, ala BOC who are obviously at a different point in their lives than 2005. Of course, no one likes to fuck with their fans as much as Aphex, so who knows. He says he has all of these completed albums, but which one will he release? Do you think he's putting pressure on himself to live up to the legacy he's created? I love the breakbeats on Rushup, and the acid of Analord but he's almost always about moving forward, so we all expect great things from him. Don't forget he's only human, and fallible just like the rest of us. I'm sure we'll like anything new he does, but damn he's falling behind the rest of his label roster. When even BOC comes out of hiding, you know it's time to get in gear!

Guest Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 (edited) Most probably. I wonder what direction it will be, though. Some might disagree, but I really liked the diversity of drugqs. We've seen a lot of evolution in the piano pieces, so I hope to hear more of that.Other than that, I'd like to remain without knowledge of what is coming. I'd be really happy if it was suddenly there: no anticipation, no vague viral marketing, just a site, with a note, saying :"innit m8, here's some music i've been producing. Hope you dig."

God, it gets me giddy to even fantasize about the next rdj release lolol. how sad r we? we're like that pathetic stalker in high school who goes home every night imagining what it'd be like if our crush would even say a single word to us... awww poor us Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/79349-will-richards-next-album-be-musically-thematic/#findComment-2024186 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it'll be another big release like analord or the double disk drukqs. It will have the new amalgamation style he seems to have gotten on to with the 3 M tracks me thinks (tussy synths and basses, SAW pads/flutes, analord squelching/sequencing ect.). Its the closest I have heard to electronic music being 'orchestral', the metz track in particular.... don't quite know how else to put it. I am glad he's taking his time. It's his music and I'm sure whatever comes out will be lush, I just hope one day I get to hear it on a good system or thru my headphones while burning one down. That is all.
