i think i prefer Papua New Guinea to Xtal afa hippy dippy yaya-thedral reverb ambient techno goes. Pulsewidth, though, that is the sound of shopping on the internet, no question. the kid had vision.

I only just realised recently that PNG has a sample in it from a Dead Can Dance song.

It's a real shame that ppl like Tombot turned me off Aphex Twin for a good 10 years.

Fuck you for that, dudes.

says the guy with the aphex username

cutty, Saturday, 18 September 2010 17:54 (thirteen years ago) link

This is not an Aphex related username. He has nothing to do with the Tregaskins! Jeez, do you just believe that Richard writes all electronic music, everywhere? Listen to the music, man, not the hype, or who you think wrote it, no matter whose name is on the publishing rights etc. etc. and so forth amen shit I gotta get a leg on if I'm going to this Rephlex party thing tonight.

XTAL is like...dimly lit warehouse just outside the M25, 4am, one security guard, one Ford Fiesta parked outside.

listening to "Evil at Play" and uh what am I missing here? yeah he sampled it, it's library music so it's supposed to be sampled, clearly there's way more to the track than the sample, this is nowhere near what say Daft Punk and LCD Soundsystem do regularly

frogbs, Friday, 16 February 2024 15:16 (two months ago) link

Yeah seems like a clickbait title do get people to check out his "how was it made" process which is frankly far more interesting (also the bulk of the video) and the reason I posted it here!

citation needed (Steve Shasta), Friday, 16 February 2024 15:31 (two months ago) link

totally stupid, oh no he used a sample. I mean, no shit.

The video where they remake it in ableton or whatever is pretty cool, though!

Agree that this is probably the greatest song of all time

video thumbnail makes it look like rdj placed an evil frequency in the track
