Aphex listened to a few of my tracks and downloaded one.. (the only downloadable one)

 

Made my day. I walked around work with this stupid grin on my face. A few people stopped me to ask if I was on something. I could not get it off (the grin) for anything. One guy assumed I had just got laid. Told him "No, better." and walked off. He just had this quizzical look on his face.

 

Sorry, I had to post this somewhere.

fucck thats nice!1

which track was it mr? I'm seeing lots of downloadable ones (if that soundcloud in your sig is yours?). Lots of goodness on that soundcloud =)

Good job either way, I'd be well chuffed.

the ultimate compliment :-)

sounds like some of his vocal manipulations

Thanks for the compliments guys :)

Yeah, I changed my sig to have the track he DL'd and liked, for now. He's listened to all of them in my spotlight, some a few times, so I wonder which ones he fancies besides chromatic hash in particular.

Wow, pretty cool comment! And fact that he decided to listen to your works :)

yeah, I wonder what compelled him to click on my name in the first place.

I actually think he's never really done what I've did in chromatic hash ( i am not sure), at least not in the aphex releases, which may be why he likes it. Well, a lot of those methods he has, I am talking about the second half of the track specifically. He tends to concentrate on what he can do with acid basslines. I.. did a bunch of weird shit ( I've written the method down somewhere) and made bits of audio with frequency shifters, making sure there's audio information in a good swath of frequencies, and then turned them into pseudo-acid lines. Chromatic Hash is sampled frequency shifter central. The reason the track feels the way it does is the methods and mindset I had while making it. These days I do acid basslines more, but I need to get back to the other way of making those formant sounds.

that's what it feels like. I was wondering if any other musicians could give me a similar comment and me feel the same way. I'm not sure there are since aphex is 60+% of why I even make music. A few would come very close though.

Also, new to your shit

https://soundcloud.com/evoava/initiation

but you're onto something here. Tried to think of something that sounds similar. I've got nothing.

thanks for sharing the track Sagan. Yeah I haven't really heard much like it either. I showed it to a friend once and he said it feels like "Anime Ninjas running around". Not sure to take it as a compliment or not. I don't think it is :o

You are one of his prominent members on sc I remember he many times answered your questions on user18081971 profile

Chromatic Hash sounds Shpongle as fuck

(compliment)

congrats brisbot, this is truely the best compliment one can hope for, seen that on sc :-). i would freak out too if aphex likes and comments my tracks, hehe!

I've gotten that a lot for that song, and I agree for the first half of that track. The second half not so much as they're a slightly... ambient... group. I hadn't heard about them until after someone else said the track reminds them of Shpongle. I do like them.

I have another track which matches even more with their style that I haven't put up anywhere yet.

Yeah that's right. Being in proximity to someone for anything immediately increases your chances for being noticed by that person. Whether it's for a promotion, a significant other (or one night stand whatever you're looking for), or aphex.

Yes, I've had this stupid grin on my face come up for the past 3 days, less and less as time goes on but it's still there. I was in some disbelief at first. I was less surprised that he listened and more surprised that he liked it enough to... like it (redundant a bit).

That's so cool. He did listen some of my tracks last year (via aphextwin account) but never commented anything. Anyways it was nice. only took this screen grab out of it all

I am so happy for you guys. That would really make my day

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?!?!?!???!!?????!!!

^ ?

Where's that mate?

fake

*made on a trainride to watmmplace*

not even waiting for a new saw but damn i wish this would be true and it would be the best album cover in years

My take on the soundcloud dump is that's his version of AE_LIVE in that it's his way of having direct interaction with the fans. Autechre has their live shows (would they even make much $ off the NA tour? Tickets were like $30?), and Squarepusher is playing all his classic tracks with a live band via shoobadoobie one. They're all centered on some sort of live interaction with the fans.

Personally I think they are listening to the fans and this is a great time to be a fan of (good) warp acts.

Comparing soundcloud banter to blasting out mental beats at a gig is a bit of a streeetch. Its all good stuff but hardly comparable interaction-wise. Sorry i just turned 42 and am squirley :P Aslo RDJ had DJ'd a lot and ae, sp always do the rounds.... no biggy
