BaggerMcGuirk Posted July 3, 2018 Report Share Posted July 3, 2018 Yeah, it was fine. The timeline jumped around, and they left out the Analord and Tuss releases. Also they went all in on the "he lies so much" angle. I still feel like he's pretty honest in most of his interviews, but it's a more compelling story. Oh, and of course it's an 'A'. Was there really any confusion about this?

I'm going off memory, but I do remember that being a thing (that infamous Pitchfork review mentions the contract in the first paragraph). I think they even asked him directly in an interview way back, which is where the lost mp3 player thing came from. Drukqs wasn't really well received (at least in the US) back in 01. I remember a Brainwashed.com review that said something like "97 was 4 years ago". Critics just heard "more fast drill'n'bass" and decided to start trashing.

Braintree Posted July 3, 2018 Report Share Posted July 3, 2018 (edited) They should have explained Drukqs a bit more. At the beginning, they play a clip of an interview with him where he's talking about preparing a piano, but they neglect to mention a third of the tunes on Drukqs are exactly that. It's kind of funny Drukqs is still considered too avant-garde for some Aphex fans. (edit: plus they're computer controlled from the Disklavier...should be quite intriguing for anyone that hated that album when they first heard it) Edited July 3, 2018 by Braintree Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide Braintree's signature Hide all signatures colindyer.bandcamp.com williamsbraintree.bandcamp.com Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/95388-the-cult-of-aphex-twin-bbc-radio-4-doc/page/3/#findComment-2646107 Share on other sites More sharing options...
