Brisbot Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) Then Afx has a burglary to report. Someone managed to get into his humble adobe when he wasn't there, and not STEAL his things, but bring everything required to Copy them, and then make off with tons of his samples circa 1993 (green calx breaks, Donkey Rhubarb, etc.), without him ever noticing anything had happened. Since the latest track (I think) is 1993, the burglary had to have happened in 93/94.Also, a cleaning crew was required to make sure everything was straight afterward. If we press hard enough on Tor, we might be able to find them if they're still in business, kidnap them, torture them with music, and get the name of user48736353001. Even if we do find him, I don't think Aphex will care because he hasn't cared yet... or noticed... do you think Aphex has become blind? Thought experiment.

Ivy Zemura yvI oo ii oo Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 Then this guy is amazing at making music that sounds like RDJs and we might all start feeling a bit dumb for thinking it was him.
