Richard D James SoundCloud - A Gift To The Fans

Just catching up with the "second batch" tracks and have to say that the Iambic 5 Poetry drums sounds + Come To Daddy Little Lord Faulteroy mix in Jonny Hawke Broken Guitar is AWESOME.

Also, "15 Sekonda" is a truly amazing piece of music. It helps me understand why Richard's music managed to get Philip Glass' interest, in the first place.

Sekonda is the absolute highlight from this batch. Total Steve Reich + AB5 feels... Couldn't ask for anything more then tracks like these. Just blown away.

And where is the Rome 2002 track (the most amazing acid ever) i bet that track alone would get him 60.000,- + on kickstarter alone!

please release Richard d James!!

That's by Squarepusher, not Aphex. Tom should upload it, yes!

I thought that was never totally confirmed, but anyway Tom jenkinson should release it then, hopefully aphex inspires other artist to do this by now!

 

A lot of these soundcloud trax are better than a lot of aphex his mid 90s stuff. Just really like the raw and not overproduced quality of it.

 

Make what you will out of this:

 

It is Squarepusher. He made a bunch of this in that year and grant pressed them onto Vinyl much to his annoyance. very solid selection of acid tracks not done with 303 either.

 

lol nice

Thanks for the info

Maybe it'll mysteriously surface on eBay one of these days, who knows ...

FINALLY some credible source on it. Thanks a lot for clearing that up.

Two of those tracks were played by Cylob in a (soundboard recorded) set ages ago, lets hope the entire thing will surface one day :)

Sounds like annoying Squarepusher is a good thing.

* do you mind taking a picture? *

;D

But that slab of plastic would have seen ebay ages ago, if there were a bunch of them. Even when Grant put his caustic window album for sale, the squarepusher white label remained where it was. So...Rich has one. Cylob. Luke and Tom himself. (there might be another one...somewhere...)

*goes back to sleep*

prncDMC is just incredible.

lolpusher

The question now is: was this white label the rumoured Rave Colonel 12"? As that nickname was attributed to Richard, it being his (very) old (now inactive) eBay account I believe...

loving the batch of 88-90 era tunes he bunged up yesterday. this era of stuff is like straight up no-frills acid house we wouldnt hear again until analord.

the rumour at the time was that the white label was Rave Colonel - K7ACID! and it was produced by some unknown french dude who died in a carcrash shortly after recording it (lol at the Rephlex boys, its always by a guy conveniently out of the country and non-contactable).

K7 Acid by XP4 is listed as one of Richards favorite tracks in the Artificial Intelligence cd booklet years earlier so I imagine he has something to do with this as well.

holy fuck at that quadraverb and tigercubdelay track, they are wanking my brains out

Hell yeah. T13 Quadraverb is my jam.

Tigercubdelay has some great stuff going on as well but seems like more of a glimpse of where he can go with that sound if he chooses to.

The second half of cottage 3 is so unique with all those delayed and off-key synths swirling about. so alien yet sunny and hopeful.

cottage 3 > 4, am i rite?

Just sped up Japan by x2. Recommended, it's fucking brilliant!

Listening to that now! With some smoothing out this could trump the original!

lush track for sure !

easier for me to list the tracks I'm not feeling so much as i think they're mostly all wicked. only track not so amazing is drone break. but even that sounds better in the higher quality than it did from the old dat leak thing

also that heliosphan live, maybe my ears but this version sounds better

~floating~

what do you think about coming weekend, imminent or not??

Changes the vibe a lot but I like it. I think the soundcloud stuff has made me a lot more comfortable with tempo shifting his tunes, he seems to do it liberally himself. All hail the recent dump. I really hope we get some drukqs soon

I'd like to hear some of them alleged comercial tracks he's worked on anonymously.

cubdelay is amazing

philie t, do you know why squarepusher didnt released those trax yet ? i think they're among his best stuff. there is also one he played during this warp archive set, also DJed by AFX around 2003. pretty strange not to release such acid treasures !...

Any one else notice one of the tracks from the second batch was # of 230? A sign of more to come maybe?

^Saw this posted over at Reddit. Did anybody here see that info on one of the tracks?

i want every track from the squarepusher warp 20 set

Yeah, heliosphan live's original ID3 tags have it as track 5/223 with 'dats digital' as the album.
