Here you go...two DIFFERENT versions of Phlangebeat. One running at 5:11 and one at 4:37. It starts to get a bit different at the 3 mins mark.

Odd, right?

 

And this one doesn't have some glitch like the 'extended' Dixons track had. Interesting, thanks for grabbing it so fast then :)

To be honest, it was only because I'd tagged the 128 versions and was trying to do a quick copy and paste of info to the new 320's. I organised the files by track length as some of the names had changed (Like Sline had become Jap Flute Energy Rave) and thats when the Phlangebeat thing became apparent.

I like that it slips further into Ventolin (Praze-And-Beeble) than the shorter version, too...

noticed a noteworthy omission on the Warp records twitter feed. They just retweeted a Bibio tweet saying he's putting unreleased jams on soundcloud, and they never tweeted (as far as i can see) or mentioned Richard's soundcloud account.

Here are a couple of files I remastered for you all. A louder sounding version of bellbrk with the loud subs made a bit more managable, and utopia with the low mids softened and those hi-freq fm sounds less harsh.

 

bellbrk (limited/compressed): https://www.dropbox.com/s/z5oeo6phip6mwt8/bellbrk%20%28limited%29.mp3?dl=0

utopia (EQ): https://www.dropbox.com/s/25tniohmlvcb4t0/8%20utopia%20%28EQ%29.mp3?dl=0

Very nice these, thanks :)!

The only Warp related clue is in the fact that it was tweeted by the official account of Aphex, which is managed by Warp. Besides that, they've been awfully quiet indeed :)

didn't realize his twitter account was managed by warp

Thanks for that! Noticed how quiet bellbrk is while listening to the playlist on shuffle just as I spotted your post. :] Cheers for your effort...fits in nicely now. Ta

makes sense really, I can't see Rich behind it. Interesting that Warp has taken some effort to advocate the dump though.

If anyone thinks a particular track needs mastering, pm me and describe the issue with the track.

Has anyone noticed how the bassline of 3 gerald Remix is almost identical to Kerrier District's Disco Nasty?

Yeah, it was mentioned a couple of times...I thin Rareafx pointed out that it could well have been the inspiration for Vibert.

Worth throwing this in, as we are talking about this track:

Oh wow that's cool! I didn't know about that track. I guess Luke's track just might be a tribute to Gerald rather than Rich's track.

totally forgot 2 download the rhubarb track on the aphex twin soundcloud, i wonder why he didn't put that one on the user48736353001 page?

haaaargh so much music 2 listen 2

Cool, nice find at both the AGCG and KD track :) they both seem to mention or play AGCG all the time so must be a great influence!

Same with Larry Heard btw, tracks like Sams Car and Laricheard (obviously) are basically Mr. Fingers tributes (and great ones at that).

Is he disabling all the comments?

the tags on the newly uploaded rhubarb are completely different compared to what they were on the original upload during syrobonkers, it looks like richard downloaded someone else's version of it with their neat and tidy tags and uploaded that. that's funny to me for some reason.

just made a comment, still works for me

yeah someone did some mastering obviously as they sound much better than before (besides the better quality) . I am really happy about that

I dont really hear it

This is also a clue to AFX's influences with regards to his frequent use of ambiguous tonality. That AGCG track has at least two or three different tonalities going on at any time, if you try to analyze it from a strictly diatonic viewpoint.

He made comments so only you could post, just because your previous ones made him laugh :p

what i mean is all the non-spotlight tracks say "this track has no comments" when i click on it. And they don't have a comments button. But you can still leave a comment. maybe my internet is playing up.

is the eq better on the newly uploaded rhubarb? sounds like it still has too much bass at parts to me
