I'd rather him spend his time uploading more tracks rather than remastering the ones that are already out.

 

Fuck YES

 

thats why people hire mastering engineers to do it. You guys act as if he'd be undertaking this proposed project all by himself (which is an odd thing to think)

been chatting with afx on sc about this - relevant bits of what he said regarding voting/a release. that said, i'm fairly convinced he at least lurks here (he hasn't said that but given WATMM's involvement with the caustic window release et al, I'd say it's a safe bet, so hi rich :)

 

and yes, i am already implementing this how he suggested (except more like ~top ~20 or so tracks, voting can be changed/updated at any time and it updates as tracks are uploaded, and i'll leave it up for a long time... fingers crossed we're seeing many more tracks!).

 

will get back to coding :)

 

hi , thanks, nice1

you think those SC stats are representative though?

People also chnge their mind about what they like I think.

I was thinking something like you have 5 votes or something and you can change those 5 votes when you like.

I dont know how many pieces of vinyl ill release yet of it.

Its quite a lot of work becuase Ill have to re-encode everything as all the files ive got that were uploaded to SC can be done a lot better +mastered by myself and with some help, IF the DAT's /cassettes still work!

It will give me a good basis for compiling something, i wont compile it exactly as people have voted, just use it as strong start to compiling it myself .

 

 

these stas are kinda useful for me but main problem is people go off tracks, change their mind etc, I know I do.

So I think a dynamic one would be best, whereby you could change your votes.

I also know people would be biased by looking at the stats so not sure the usefullness of it tbh

Would do cd as well

Would just be very useful for me, [i had my friends help me decide in the past now it's loads of fan's, ace!]

as a basis of where to start and also probably put some other unreleased ones that I didnt put on SC also

Maybe I can credit all the people who help by voting in the artwork :)

ALso I intend to leave any polls that may be created up for as long as possible to allow people to digest but no harm in starting now if its dynamic.

 

"Maybe I can credit all the people who help by voting in the artwork :)"

Maybe this will spur some more activity in the SC Fan Art thread! Would love to see more creations.

thats not the way I understood it. I understood it this way: he or maybe tDR will make some artwork and most popular voters (of the tracks) get mentioned by name (sorry for my english :D) when he releases

That song is what made my GF finally understand my Aphex obsession at least somewhat. I shared it on my SC and she clicked not knowing what it was. Ran in to tell me she really loves it and wants it on her phone. It was my great pleasure to tell her who it was.

Chink 101 and Sam's Car are top10, even top 5 for me.

 

I never see SomewhereOTTGTBAG mentioned. Would be great if it made it through :)

Agreed, back to the old days, cutting some shapes, happy daze!

Some detective work trying to track down this book:

 

http://uk.prweb.com/releases/2012/12/prweb10226269.htm

 

The links to The Skythian Society Press (http://www.wetheskythians.com/) are all dead. Apparently there was an ebook version of this book as well as hardback and paperback prints. There is a mobile number and a name mentioned on there in association with 'The Skythian Society Press'. Further googling led me to this which seems to be the parent company of the now defunct Skythian Society Press and it also has the same mobile number listed for contact as well as an address for a bookshop:

 

http://www.resonancebookworks.com/

 

Bookshop address in County Durham

 

https://goo.gl/maps/xCpFP

 

I guess they'd have infos about tracking down a copy of the book and possibly have an ebook copy for download too maybe? The book doesn't seem to be listed on their website though. It's like all trace has been wiped off t'internet. *dramatic conspiracy music*

also, this is David Ritchie's facebook.

https://www.facebook.com/david.ritchie.58

Looks like hes pretty active. maybe hed be nice enough to point us in the right direction...

yeah I thought about that after posting haha Would be interesting to have fan submitted art, though. RDJ has proven that he has a pretty good eye for images to represent his music, so him doing the artwork & us voting on which we like the best would also be interesting!

This made me laugh far too much

My B movie?

thread took a gay turn at some point. no offense to gay people

If this whole premature ejaculation /poll voting malarkey has nullified Richard continuing with the uploading of tracks beyond 1994 I'll be fucking livid.

Well he just commented that there's a longer version of Pigeon Street that he might be able to find, so let's all stay positive in here :)

Not Steinvord

and neither is Tom

Yeah, no shit.

we are beeing invaded by aliens

confirmed

Is that Synthesizer Patel in Frequency Transmitter?

By the way, for people wanting to hear Come to Daddy or Drukqs styles, try re-listening to 7 Cutting - the sound design on that is deceptively good, although it loses speed a little in the middle

Could it still be Tom AND Rich? That's probably too cute an answer...

about as shocking as the confirmation that he is the tuss :)

Doubt that'll happen based on what he said about the tape, but wouldn't it be great
