garbage_burner Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 I came to a strange realization last week when I was fiddling around with the expansion kit for the Virtual String Machine from GForce. In it are presets from a user going by "Richard James" of some rare bits of kit that only Richard could own including samples of a Yamaha Gx-1 (unless it's Gordon Reids from SOS). Though the samples sounded pretty weak, all signs seemed to point to him. There's no reference on their website that they've worked with Richard other this weird graphic of the Afx symbol: http://www.gforcesoftware.com/extras/diary/thursday-6 So I asked Richard on Soundcloud if it was him and he replied back with "not me, they're just being cheeky" or something along those lines. I wrote back with something about the gx-1 and a few hours he deleted his comment. By that point I was super confused and decided to do a little more research. I finally did a google search and I found this awesome Linkedin profile from the Czech Republic: https://cz.linkedin.com/pub/richard-james/25/b51/a15 I definitely don't believe it to be the work of the Aphex but it's a hilarious coincidence either way. A dude who's name is Richard P James, who has worked on mixes for Gary Numan and Kylie Minogue and who has released a sample pack of Sh101 Acid lines (Computer Music sample pack of Analords? hahaha). "I love to get deep into sound design projects" - If it is Richard, than that's the understatement of the year! Just thought I'd share. Pretty goofy.
