wow fuck that's sad, thought the dude was up and coming for sure. seemed so nice too 

highly recommend this by him for anyone who hasn't listened to it yet: http://shop.cpurecords.net/album/dance-with-me

Damn, and he was such a young dude too. I wish strength to his friends and families :/

Well that's fucking horrible. Really enjoyed his chunes. Damn shame.

RIP, a horrid way to go.

Oh my God. He put rough drafts and recordings up on soundcloud so frequently, there are so many tracks I was looking forward for a proper release. RIP that is so sad :( :(

WHAT? oh my god. I love his music.  this is just awful. This is so sad. 

Jesus, that's awful.   He was really talented.  

Fuck, what a loss. I don't know what to say...

The closing song on this takes on a whole new meaning:

He will be missed.

RIP

It's a shame really.Talked on facebook with him a few times,he was a nice fellow and top braindancer.

ugh god... this is devastating. he had his whole career ahead of him... rest in peace, my dude.

I'm at a loss for words. I've talked to him before over Soundcloud. He seems like a top guy. I've been listening to his music a lot the past few months. Like others have said, he had so much ahead of him.

Damn this CPU release is great... It's very unfortunate to be made aware of it under these circumstances though. :/

very sad indeed. RIP

rest in peace :(

This is hell.. for more than like half a year only tracks I've had in my phone were Microlith. Today before work I've put some AFx in.. first post on fb while I got to work was....

Rhys, Your music will live in our hearts forever. <3

wtf i've been flash downloading some of the lushest unreleased tracks he would upload in full to his soundcloud and then delete shortly thereafter... but i caught some gems. he was super talented and made great layered analogue tunes with bittersweet melodies braided throughout each track. each track is so varied and evolved throughout. i dunno what to say other then praise his creatively and unique style and sound. his music has been the backdrop of the past year or so for me, as he was really active on soundcloud. so sad and shocking. i'm uploading these tunes to youtube for sure now...
