played bit 4 and papat4 for my parents, while driving them around town. my mother's all "I LIKE this." and "is somebody playing those drums?" ....first time she's ever said such a thing about music I listen to.
probably cuz it sounds like 80s shit. the title track (9?) sounded kinda lame in the car.

apart from the two opening tracks, which are incredible; the rest of this album doesnt stand up for me tbh

it sounds like a drukqs outtake.. well-detailed and effortless-sounding, of a similar palette and feeling/flow
― braunld (Lowell N. Behold'n), Wednesday, 14 January 2015 03:24 (nine years ago) link
Guessing this will be an EP of 5 songs similar to Syro/Drukqs and a mess of doodles with perhaps a couple acoustic bits.
― octobeard, Wednesday, 14 January 2015 06:36 (nine years ago) link
it would be so interesting to see a poll of what everyone thinks the ratio of "farty" to "normal" will be, maybe with more discussion of "types" of "aphex" "songs"!!!!!

z machines are corporate sponsored to a sickening degree but if you have ever watched more than 45 seconds of a vocaloid j-pop youtube...

stop with all the these post African repetitions, look for changing tempos and changing rhythms, do not allow any repeat any rythm if it were not varied to some extent and did not have a direction in its sequence of variations

I think this is quoting Stockhausen's critique of Aphex Twin?

Holy crap. In a recent interview he talked about the success of the Caustic Window album and how he's got loads more on DATs and unreleased material of similar quality from that era and how he started cataloging them for a possible box set and then got bored and stopped.
I bet he probably got either one of his kids or someone at Warp to set this up and spit out these tracks over time, if it's indeed him. He and Rephlex vehemently denied The Tuss being him, so it's not unlike him to play the denial game in the past.

Old or new, lost or found, him or no, I really wish these do get compiled and formally released, since parceling them out online in this manner makes it even harder than usual to keep track of his stuff.
