IIRC both of Squarepusher's Spymania releases as well as Vibert's Plug EPs predate Hangable Auto Bulb. But all these guys knew each other so I'm sure the actual conversation and exchange of notes was happening outside of what exists on vinyl.

HAB moved things a lot further away from 'actual' Dn'B though, in terms of timbre, melody and general spasticness, so that's something.

No I think there was an interview somewhere with Richard James where he said it. I definitely have never read the iTunes description before. A couple years ago I got obsessed with reading Aphex Twin interviews and he was pretty specific, I think it was the result of this one particular drum machine that Jenkinson was using to produce those "clipping" drum beats, where every beat is suddenly played many times faster. I think he describes it here:

That being said I could be totally wrong though...

huh, I was sure there was a later interview where RDJ was mad at Oval for sampling him but I am failing to google this, beginning to think I imagined it

sorry all if I did! ps I like Oval and Aphex

Was at Aphex curates at WHP in Manchester Depot and that was some bloody show. Oh my lord, Polynomial C.

I agree that the "I" is a pretty heavy concept (fionnland), Wednesday, 25 September 2019 21:17 (four years ago) link
