you went through 17 hours of music today and judged most of it to be crap?

 

(hi pbn)

 

 

literally listened to the tracks all day (I was excited!) while working; obviously if I wasn't feeling a track I would skip around a bit or just delete it, but I think I literally spent 8-10 hours listening to Aphex

 

[hello!]

 

 

You're not supposed to listen to the entire archive in one sitting. It's no wonder you got bored of it.

 

Spread the material across a few sessions. Maybe limit yourself to 20-30 tracks a day. Don't skip anything unless you're really really not enjoying it. Then do the same thing again some other time. Alternatively, you could listen to the dump on shuffle now and again.

 

There are some absolute gems here which completely blow his 2015 releases out of the fucking water. In fact, I'd regard some of it as his all-time best work. You need to give this material a fair chance, and eventually you'll reap the rewards :)

Don't even want to give them the extra clicks for this but:

I remember reading that Vice article. What a tool.

Crazy to think that the archive has doubled in size since then. He should give it another go

I hope this means what I think it means...

YAAAAAAY.

Also, COMEON BOC YOU DON'T HAVE TO ISOLATE YOURSELVES.

Better stock up on food and water for F5'ing soundcloud !

That reads as though he is suggesting we dont delay in setting up our cache. It's not even a seperate sentance.

I wonder if rdj has some luxury fallout shelter up there in Scotland or something

I think just being in Scotland in a rural area is a big plus if you're of the preperlee sort, wanting to do things preperlee.

thats a pretty big target to hit though. And we're talking about planned societal scarcity, collapse and martial law type deal, so being away from the centres of that action is where the countryside holds promise. Thing is though, does he know how to grow crops, have a greenhouse/polytunnel. Maybe the missiz is up with that qit, either that or he didn't show his tinned beans room when talking about all his studios.

Still though, new zealand, etc and.

a bit of pre-AFX orphan EP soundcloud activity(/free promotion) doesn't seem totally out of the question .. tbh ..

F5 keys at standby ...

i think you're reading a bit too much into that comment but i'd love to be wrong!

i'm ready for it!

I think that is exactly what he means. I seem to recall other dumps around the time of CCAI weren't there?

Yarp. The first bunch of tracks went up two days after CCAI dropped. We didn't get anything around the time of the MARCHROMT30a release, at least not for a few weeks.

So he's telling us to restock our Jaiamcans for tonight's dump? that's fine with me

nah just make sure u have some things stocked up just in case everything goes to shit. good idea to stock up as soon as possible. something could happen tomorrow...

"something" could happen any day, I won't take pseudoscience for facts just to prepare myself for food rationing.

I don't think we're talking about green veg here.
