― moonship journey to baja, Friday, 22 June 2007 17:22 (sixteen years ago) link
Alspacka is a track off of the Confederation Trough EP. The others are "Fredugolon 6" and "GX1 Solo". The vinyl version subtracts "GX1 Solo" and adds "Akunk"
The tracklist of the full length "Rushup Edge" is:
1 Synthacon 9 2 Last Rushup 10 3 Shiz Ko E 4 Rushup I Bank 12 5 Death Fuck 6 Goodbye Rute
I'm giving both a first listen right now.
― Z S, Friday, 22 June 2007 17:33 (sixteen years ago) link
That's the full tracklisting? I was kind of hoping the 9, 10, 12 indicated another 6-8 tracks were missing from the leaked version.
It's... all right. Some nice sounds but I'm not too excited by it yet. Then again it took a while for Analord to grow on me and this is somewhat similar in style.
― a passing spacecadet, Friday, 22 June 2007 18:16 (sixteen years ago) link
Been listening to this for a while. I like it okay, but I'm starting to wish he would do a SAW volume 3. The spazzy drums remind me of the dot-com era or something.

It's too bad the vinyl version of the Confederation Trough EP doesn't include "GX1 Solo", because it's probably the best song he's released as The Tuss.
I'm finding these new songs to be kind of bleh. They're above average compared to most of RJD's peers, but they seem uninspired compared to his previous output. On Rushup Edge, there isn't the variety of tempos and sounds and textures that I was expecting. It's not until the closer "Goodbye Rute" that things change up noticeably.

I've been laying off electronic music for a few years, so I just got the Chosen Lords collection a couple of days ago. I like it quite a bit. It is like RDJ finally said fxxk it with all of that hyperactive mumbo jumbo and made a follow up to Selected Ambient Works 85-92 with a bit of the rush from Surfing on Sine Waves.
If The Tuss stuff is just as good, I will check that out next. I never got the 26 Mixes for Cash, so that is one I also want to check out.

"So - worth checking out?"
I think so. Chosen Lords has a consistent and flowing sound across the collection and doesn't get broken up by out of place totally drilling tunes like Richard D. James and even I Care Because You Do. AFX uses some breaks and there is some really complex drum programming on this newer stuff, but it is more in vein of his earlier more ambient techno/acid sounding recordings.

― Bittern Storm Over My Hammy (morrisp), Friday, 30 June 2023 15:17 (eleven months ago) link
As someone with very little background in electronic music, I heard ICBYD and was immediately hooked, drawn into his world & aesthetic. There’s no way that would’ve happened if I had first heard, say, Analord or Syro (an album I gave numerous chances and finally sold back because it was just so boring to me, a formerly massive fan)
― Bittern Storm Over My Hammy (morrisp), Friday, 30 June 2023 15:20 (eleven months ago) link
One thing to keep in mind with RDJ is that he has much more of a connection with dance music. He plays tracks by lots of underground producers in his live sets (which seem to be a mix of originals/live PA/djing new club music and classic jungle/breakcore), and it's become a bit of a thing to get included. Autechre have only become further distanced from dance music (which is fine).
I've spent a lot more time over the years with AE records and they mean more to me, RDJ is more about specific mind-blowing tracks for the most part. I do like that he's settled into a late-period thing of further exploring and refining his various things (ie breakbeats, old hardware synths with weird tunings, melodic electroacoustic shit, etc). I guess you could say the same thing about AE, but their algorithmic MAX/MSP world has always felt much more mysterious.

Yeah Flow Coma remix was all time. Part of me feels like the rest of Analord and a lot of the work after was Richard trying to hit that mark again but failing.
RDJ + Come to Daddy + Windowlicker is the AFX "apex" imho. The variety, creativity, and beauty in those three releases is staggering compared to what came before and after. This period feels like a kaleidoscope of kaleidoscopes. On RDJ alone you have shit like 4, Fingerbib, Goon Gumpas, Girl/Boy and Beetles on the same record! Good lord (or should I say good analord)? The fact that Flim and Bucephalus Bouncing Ball are on the same release is incredible! I wish his work had this energy, excitement and enthusiasm. It's still great in spots but yeah.
There's tracks on Plus, Elseq, Oversteps and especially Exai that had my attention and immediately felt like all timers and creative statements in ways I haven't felt that about Richard since literally the Flow Coma track.

idk if i’d call any aphex release “underrated”, seems like there’s lots of acclaim for his most minor works. this discussion seems related to a very brief discussion on on another thread about how most techno projects are really only vital for the first few releases (that’s obv at least equally related to a particular way of listening to techno type music)
i think of “underrated” idm as being like, early alec empire on mille plateux or something. does anybody still think about alec empire? no matter what afx does, he’s always on the radar for some reason

ICBYD was such an amazing album to get on board with – it was at this perfect "midpoint" where you could dip back and discover all his early stuff, while at the same time experiencing in "real time" that incredible ramp-up which followed... that ideal scenario of being a big new fan of an artist right when they happen to be "in the pocket" and upping their game with each release.

saw the current single, blackbox life recorder, in hmv, was £12 on cd and in my mind eps are still £4 so it's probably the first thing of his that i have deliberately not bought
but clicking around last night, his own website is selling digital copies £3 for AND they come with 5 additional tracks (4 remasters done by him and a new track)

(god, that website is annoying)

Oh what? I can't even work out what I'm buying

Yeah, I feel like for the full CD album price its a bit short. I was psyched to buy an Aphex Twin CD on release day though, haven't done that since.... Windowlicker? In all the complaints about the vinyl being the dominant physical format rn I have yet to hear anyone mention that both Come To Daddy and RDJ records are definitely truncated compared to the "accepted" CD/streaming versions (possibly a USA thing...)

Yeah it’s a real bummer since the vinyl often has more than enough room for them. Syro for instance is a 3xLP for an album that’s only an hour long and it doesn’t even include the bonus track. Ditto with the last 2 tracks on Collapse. I like this stuff but cmon I ain’t paying $29 for 14 minutes of music

Kind of ironic considering SAWII was truncated for CD

“Come to daddy” missing half of the songs (specially IZ-US which is my favorite song in there) is a bummer. RDJ vinyl album does seem to have the same 10 songs tho?

when rdj album was released in the us, sire added the girl/boy song bsides to the end, it’s supposed to end with logon rock witch
― brimstead, Monday, 28 August 2023 00:07 (nine months ago) link
yeah that's understandable, those tracks always felt like B-sides to me. but yea Come to Daddy really works well in its 8-track version
― frogbs, Monday, 28 August 2023 02:03 (nine months ago) link
having listened to the blackbox life recorder thing a couple of times now i find it very slight. the only but that jumped out at me was the little acid squelch sequence on the extra track
there's all sorts of extra stuff tracked onto the downloads on his store. come to daddy has 11 tracks, for instance. i think you can buy them individually but i don't really know where to start.
