kek

i appreciate the mega upload and I like how it's broken up into albums, cheers!

 

but goddamn thats a clunky ass post on top of the page

^ Fixed

I guess RDJ is smarter than trying to avoid the inevitable

jsmcpm u fucking king!

How have you done this? what media player do you using to keep the tracks in right order..

I added track numbers to the ID3 tags and named the files so they would sort properly... so any media player that lets you "sort by" should work. I like Foobar personally:

 

 

 

Apparently, iTunes doesn't display the Track Number column by default? Stupid! Why would a music player not default to playing tracks in order?

Hit CTRL-J to bring up View Options, turn on the Track Number column, then you can sort them properly.

I thought by enabling the Download button on almost all those tracks that he WANTED all his fans to have their own copy?

You would think... he might have changed his mind after realizing some of these tracks may be worthy of release after all...

I'm pretty sure Richard knows exactly what he's doing. He seems to be on the ball with pinpoint precision.

I'm sure most folks downloading them are the same folks who would buy them in the right package later.

 

Right?

 

Might just be me.

Maybe not everyone, but most.

 

Richard imo surfs the perfect wave between his own domain and the mainstream. He just seems to know exactly how to manipulate the water.

 

I know reading the Warp Records book, Steve Beckett said he has a zen-like control over his (music) life. Even in the new on-line/internet age he emerges as a Zen Master. Knowing exactly what to do, just like the wisest of Wise Grasshoppers.

 

I'm drunk and I came briefly here to say I love you. And I love Richard. And it's my birthday. So I love everything. I'm gonna go back to real life now.

 

Savage! and God bless you. And God bless the power of music. Happy new year

 

See you all in 2016

Not just you. I've listened to these tracks all year and I'd still jump at the chance to preorder a selection, or multiple selections, of them as a release, and I'm sure most folks here are the same.

 

Man, can't wait to see what Aphex Adventures are in store for 2016. WOOT!

I love aphex talking shit about squarepusher. first the robots album, then about him putting the crowd noises in his tracks. I hope they get into a feud of some kind. Reason being I think it would result in some really good music being released.

Yepo, and consequently I haven't downloaded a thing. And even if many don't make a purchase later, they're probably not listening to it much anyway or don't have the financial means to, like say if they're from some broke arse Latin american country. And you can't begrudge them a little aphex in their lives, plus they'll spread the message of the good phexations which will come back in sales and tour slots in the future anyway. Look how many in South America go to see iron maiden, I wonder how many had initially gotten into it through non legit distribution.

2015, the year of the Soundcloud. Such an unbelievable gift, so many absolutely outstanding and magical tracks, hard not to take it for granted, especially earlier in the year when he was uploading 100's a month, but each and every track is a privilege to listen to and enjoy. Rich has single-handedly made this such a memorable year.

 

Thanks Rich, and thanks WATMM for riding this wave of uploads out with 580+ pages of awesomeness, killing many boring afternoons with pages of top lels.

 

As we look forward to another year of IDM, to some much anticipated Melodies from Mars, and to more untold riches, I hope we spend the night listening to, or at least appreciating, Soundcloud tracks, in tribute to Richard's lifelong obsession with making the most perfect music possible, and the massive heart which lets us listen to a fucking fuckton of it. Cheers everyone, here's to a mental 2016!!!

Couldn't or wouldn't have said it better myself AFX 4 Life u slags

I think that RDJ is really grateful for all support we have given to him.

 

We have all followed him many years thru his career.

 

I have investate so much time and money on his music... maybe he is regretting putting all those tracks up on SC or maybe he is lost and don't know what to do with everything. but he is responding with a big heart and a good smile I can tell!

We have to remember to renew his Soundcloud subscription.

I reckon there's all sorts of intelligent dance feuds going on. Wasn't there a zinger in there about how coding emotions is very difficult, pinging back a snide AE remark about how his music was cold and emotionless?
