He was doing an heap of shows for ages, then stopped. It has been speculated that this was due to him being in album do mode. If this is the case, i'm sure you can forgive him for not wanted to go to detroit.

Album do mode? This is a guy who said he was sitting on ~15 unreleased albums in 2011...Basically if he doesn't want to play, I respect that and think he should only play if he wants to obviously. I'd love to see him live one day though, those future music festival videos looked incredible.

LOL @ 15 unreleased albums - he said there were 6. How the internet inflates things...

? well i was wrong but you're more wrong. in 2006 he said he had 6, in 2011 he said 10 or 11, how many do you think he has now, 3 years later?

Do you honestly think any of those numbers are anything more than hyperbole? I highly doubt Richard has "albums" any more than BOC has pre-Twoism releases... they are just loose collections of tracks that *could* be pulled together to make an album, but in their current state probably aren't.

What would his incentive be to lie about that?

Eh? We are talking about the same man here, right?

It doesn't seem like he enjoys being bugged much about releasing new music, which is why I doubt he would lie about having so many completed albums. Wouldn't he know people would bug him even more if that was the case? Just doesn't seem like something he'd lie about to me

I don't care because I didn't like his post Windowlicker stuff. I'm fine if he is gardening.

Don't blame him for not travelling. Planes are horrible.

Glad I saw him a few years ago at Wireless, well I couldn't actually see him but I heard his laptop DJ set and it was lovely. We had a nice little dance crew going where I was in the crowd.

I first saw him play at the Sheffield Arches in the late 90s but I wasn't realy familiar with him at all at the time I'm ashamed to say. A lot of the regulars were crying because they couldn't dance to it as it wasn't trance/4x4 techno. I remember him playing Silver Bullet - 20 Seconds To Comply, which I hadn't heard since my last school disco.

Uhm, maybe that's why he's obviously feeding bullshit to anyone who asks about this?

was he not once recorded on someone phones backstage at cochella saying he always has a difficult time getting a visa to go over to america?

I'd see him again if he came to oz, i'm a sucker for punishment. Plus it's aphex fucking twin. heheh. Maybe not at a bro festival this time though.
