Did you guys manage to grab all the deleted tracks before they got deleted?

Yeah, a bunch of us did. The zip file being linked to on this page of the thread includes everything.

All tracks up to 7 Cutting (no custom info is added, just comments, tags and artist name): https://mega.co.nz/#!2MUXDRQQ!M8bIbDvOwIt9Spn1TEicPYBRPjm7RzdTQy9kiKOfWIw

i love you

stop worrying about the deleted tracks, everyone's got everything,

there's like 20 mega and dropbox links all over...

I'm worrying about the fact that his cereal break is taking a bit long, maybe that's it for today, what a day !

Perhaps RDJ/CTD/Windowlicker is all one era and the best demos were computer/DSP processed or used to trigger more sophisticated recordings. The largest differentiation btw DJ and CTD/Windowlicker is the advancement in edits/dsp fuckery imo.

About Girl/Boy copyright control : he uploaded a Donkey Rhubarb remix yesterday, with the name "Donkey Rhubarb" in it and some really similar sounds, but it did not got removed so...

styles he hasn't dropped yet in soundcloud deluge:

 

-electro acoustic compositions/manipulated field recordings

-computer controlled acoustic tracks

-drukqs style acid+breaks

 

it seems like besides that he's put something up from almost every conceivable era, which makes sense since those styles above are mostly from Drukqs and beyond

Drukqs and beyond, if we believe stuff he said in interviews, is all stuff that he's been putting into piles to make albums and he's got at least six of them from that period ready to be released. (If we believe stuff he said in interviews.) So it would make sense if we didn't get unreleased stuff from Drukqs and beyond maybe. If we believe stuff he said in interviews.

maybe he uploaded the wrong version of Girl/Boy 'dark version' by accident?

he used to play this version out live all the time, the beginning is an evil version of the original girl/boy

with jdownloader you can load them all in one go. Just copy the account's url, and jdownloader grabs all links. 96 by now. S.i.x.t.y.n.i.n.e.!!! What great times!

hey thanks a lot, i've managed it somehow with other app... btw, track's quality is @128kbps right?

Damn Richard! This is the longest shit ever. Get some more fiber in your diet

i vote we should all give Rough Beat Tune another listen and just relax a bit

perhaps, but in equal measure it would make equal sense to hold onto a lot of these soundcloud tracks too for some kind of compilation/box set release. Besides being a really generous dude, there is no logical reason to unleash almost 100 unreleased tracks like this, new or old (if his main concern was what his next 'release' was going to be).

sounds the same as the vinyl rip to me, which probably means it isnt richard

I'm holding out hope he puts up all the Windowlicker alternates and outtakes - the ones that were officially released were superb (Windowlicker is probably my favourite Aphex track of all time next to Alberto Balsalm), and I'd love to hear more.

Yeah, I'd be surprised if that was Rich - probably someone trying to cash in on the hype (how?)

Or just be a troll

Ya'll realize this is like a study in the transformation of general production methods and technology over the years?

Also, someone get a musicologist in here. There are papers to be written.

word

Seems perfectly logical to find be amused by the response you get when you unload loads of tracks on your rabid fanbase anonymously on a soundcloud.

some name changes

I think "7 Cutting" is proof that he's really gonna unload choons from every era.

which one was the beetles rework or whatever?

loving 21 Vtnm2 - he's been dropping that in live sets since 2005

Chrysalis owns the publishing and copyright to his songs - even unreleased ones, so if they are ever sold, the publisher gets a cut (at least that was the case with the CWLP). This might not apply since they're not being given away or sold (probably why the downloads have been turned off since early on).

nvm
