Letter to Richard D. James

Dear Richard, how are you? I'm fine.

I have a request for you: Why don't you release something
new? You have to understand that we waited enough time, now
we would like to see something new.

I know that your hard-disk is full of new stuff, now me and
all your fans want a real new album with 10, 11 and more
songs; we'd like happy if you will release a double cd like
was SAW II.

Richard I want an innovative real album, like ICBYD or RDJ
Album.
Windowlicker was great but it has only 3 tracks...

I'm curious to listen the evolution of your sound and style,
I want to see where you can arrive.

Richard stop on minute to drive your tank and amaze the word
with your music.

Thanks for your attention.

Sincerely,

WooÆ’erAttack

yes.yes.yes.(same as above, less spelling mistakes very good
comment though) what else can richy boy come up with?


 

Japes from London on 2001-06-13 16:38 [#00009492]



He should release some massive 12 CD box set of all the
stuff he's never released. That would be scary!

Release a Selected Ambient Works Vol. III album with not
one, not two, but three cds. Excellent.


 

Organ Grinder from my own little fantasy world on 2001-06-13 22:11 [#00009523]



RDJ claimed to have written 200 fucking tracks in 1997
alone. And the son-of-a-bastard has been teaching his
computer to write its own music. I'd definitely like to hear
something like "Selected Computer-Generated Works Volume 1,"
or hell, even his algorithms. But even if i had to buy a
12-CD set just to get some new Richard D James music, I sure
as hell would do it without even thinking twice.


 

po{e} from the uk on 2001-06-13 22:14 [#00009524]



it has been said before, he wont release in case he looses
fans because it sucks

i still need to get aquainted with old aphex, so im not too
bothered


 

Organ Grinder from my own little fantasy world on 2001-06-13 22:28 [#00009528]



What i think he should do is RE-ISSUE SAW 85-92!!!! So we
new AFX fans can hear his classic material!!

One thing though -- please do not let the US companies cheat
us American fans out of good tracks like they did with
SAW2!!!

If they're going to fuck us like that, they can at least
give us the common courtesy for a reacharound!!

OOPS!!!

*mind fell in the gutter for a second, so he picks it up and
sticks it back in*


 

Japes from London on 2001-06-13 23:35 [#00009535]



Organ Dude: I said in an earlier post that Rich has stopped
his whole computer generated project because it was too
difficult.

A new Ambient album would be fucking lush though! I'd buy it
the day it came out.


 

TekN010G from Australia on 2001-06-14 03:04 [#00009548]



I think that if he did release a new album he would try and
make it as wierd as possible,... this way if no-one likes
it,.. It's because they're not "smart enough" to get into
it,.. or it's too complex for them,.. but I'm sure that
it'd be done well,.. as for not releasing stuff because he'd
lose fans,...

HE DOESN'T GIVE A SHITE,.. HE JUST WANTS THE MONEY (Which is
fine by me, because I just want the music :))

map[warp/rephlex-aholic] from CH - Mulligan on 2001-06-14 09:21 [#00009596]



all of you people sucks.
remember: Rich isn't a artist who make sound for others, so
you can't wish a "SAW III" with 3 cd's. rich makes music
when and where he want, he don't look at other peoples and
think "yeah, that's great, now i make a new album to answer
my art" no, that isn't rich.....rich takes time for his
music, perhaps he comes never back, perhaps he makes track
for himself an not for the fans, i think he wouldn't give
names for his tracks, i think he like to give colors or some
tastes, no? rich is a one man xperience, you can't say "Rich
bring a new album" so at all afx fans, take time and listen
to all his old shit, sample his drums & rhytms (like afx114
or something) change the pitch and speed, add efx, and send
it to your sampler an make bastard noize everywhere you can
make them.......greetz at all
A[cid]PH[Value]EX[cited] never die !!


 

\/\/ooÆ’erAttack!!! from Milan on 2001-06-14 16:11 [#00009663]



Richard, listen me... release a new album, it would be a
great thing for this society.
I know you're reading this Topic, I know it's a your own
choise to release something new or not... but I hope you'll
do the right thing...

Adikt on 2001-06-14 16:48 [#00009667]



not a fuckin nother ambient album. theres 3 cds worth of
that already.

we need like a RDJ album part 2 or sumthin which is totally
mental. mayb sumthin a bit like complex equation which wud
be cool.


 

Leelia from USA on 2001-06-14 17:35 [#00009671]



Just leave him alone. He is not going to read any of this,
and if he does he won't give care. He doesn't know us and
he doesn't care about the ideas we have. Just wasting your
time. If you want to hear some new forms of music that is
cool and or weird, then make it yourself.

rob fragilenine from what was that song again? oh yeah, its called on 2001-06-15 16:43 [#00009829]



he's probably planned this whole 'i quit' thing so that he
waits a few years (5 or so) and then comes back with a new
album that is 10 times better than anything he's ever
released. he's probably thinking 'woahahahahahahaha...'
right now.

ps. i was looking around on cdnow.com and i saw an aphex
twin album called 'the best of aphex twin'. does anyone know
what this is?


 

\/\/ooÆ’erAttack!!! from Milan on 2001-06-15 17:27 [#00009830]



Rob: I saw it, too. I haven't idea about what is it.

P.S.: I'm thinking that Daft Punk waited 5 years, between
Homework (1996) and Discovery (2001).
Depeche Mode waited a lot between Ultra and Exciter.
There are many example.
Aphex Twin released Windowlicker in 1999, it isn't much
time.
I don't understand why many people is so pessimist about a
new Richard's album.

Richard, I'm feeling you're ready to exit with a new
masterpiece.
What kind of video are you preparing?
What kind of sound?

Give us a signal...

who is this woofer guy talking to!? where am i!? god some
one help me! what are you people looking at!!? STOP LOOKING
AT ME!!!!


 

Rough Spittle from London on 2001-06-15 18:40 [#00009841]



Woofer, what is it with all the hAx0r language? Give it a
rest with all the \/\/?ƒe® shite, please.

And also, are you insane? RDJ isn't reading this, and if he
is, it gives him more incentive not to release if all his
fans are weirdy stalker people.


 

TekN010G from Australia on 2001-06-16 04:40 [#00009911]



Richard apparantly does surf the net and look up stuff to do
with him (I don't remember where I first heard this so I
can't help you) and I think he'd just look at it and
laugh,.. I know that our asking for a new album is not
phasing him in the slightest,.. but he's probably sitting at
home thinkin "hehehe,... these guys are pathetic,.. they
have no idea,.. hehehe" or maybe not,.. but you get the
point


 

\/\/ooÆ’erAttack!!! from Milan on 2001-06-16 14:55 [#00009945]



TekN010G: I'm agree with you about all. It's better that I
don't know what RDJ is thinking about this stupid topic, eh,
eh, eh... but Richard is too intelligent to think that I'm
serious to write this kind of things. This topic is
obviously a joke and it's funny to read the answers of
people like Rough Spittle.

Rough Spittle: What's the meaning of hAxOr language?
Why are you so negative?
Don't you like this topic?
Why are you writing on this topic?
Excuse me, too many questions today...

thanksomuch: Are you a newbye, here?
Please to meet you. I'm WooÆ’erAttack but some friend call
me woofy. If you want I'll not look at you... it's a
promise.

Happy weekend to everybody!

\/\/ooÆ’erAttack!!! from Milan on 2001-06-18 07:44 [#00010121]



Good morning Mr. Richard, Have a good Monday.
By the way, are you ready to release?



 

AFX / PCP fan. from Holland on 2001-06-22 22:08 [#00010727]



Maybe Richard will release something sometime.
People are just grown into the fact that every few months
there has to be a new release.
You see a lot that producers sometimes release records/cd's
every few months or so and then it's quiet for a while.
This can have so many reasons.
(long vacation / missing the feeling to produce / not wanna
produce for some time / concentrate on other things)
There can be many options why Richard is not releasing new
material.

When the time is right there will be something new.
Patience is the word!!! :-)


 

Rough Spittle from a scrag heap on 2001-06-23 13:10 [#00010757]



Woofboy: h4x0r language is when you litter your phrases with
punctuation, numbers, purposely mis-spell things etc. eg:

this r0x (v)¥ ƒU©king hed ___---====````

you get the idea.

I'm not negative boi boi, I'm realistic.

Organ Grinder from my own little fantasy world on 2001-06-23 19:43 [#00010802]



come to think of it, so did Tool!

4 years between Undertow and Aenima.
5 years between Aenima and Lateralus.

Nine Inch Nails:
5 years between Pretty Hate Machine and Downward Spiral
5 years between Downward Spiral and The Fragile

the list could go on and on.........

i'm betting that if Richard does release something else, it
will be the best he's ever done!

In the meanwhile, there's other great music out there!! Like
take for instance, Wagon Christ/Luke Vibert, Bogdan
Raczynski, Mu-ziq, Squarepuser........

...I was out for a long weekend, I went on my second house
in a calm place... today I back in my office, I turn on my
P.C., I take a look to my favourite messageboard and what I
found? RICHARD D. JAMES aka APHEX TWIN will release a new
double album...
It's simply incredible, I'm too happy, usually I hate Monday
because I start to work, but this is the best Monday
morning.

I want to say TANX to RICHARD and all the people believed he
would release a new album.
If you read this topic you can see how many people were
pessimistics and thought bad about this nice topic.
Today the dream come reality...
Now we're all happy and we wait for this new masterpiece...

"DRUKQS", we're waiting for you...

________________________________________\/\/ooÆ’erAttack!!!


 

Chrispy from the UK 2 on 2001-07-02 09:51 [#00011749]



I just thought I'd say that I think that even if Richard
didnt release Drunqs, We wouldn't of heard the last of him.
He probably has loads of un-finished tunes. Also, if he's
like me* and most other electronic music artists, Then he'd
make it coz he'd enjoy it. I bet he just likes the fact he
can share it with people, see what they think of it all, by
reading all of this.

*I'm not an electronic artist......I just enjoy creating
music and showing all my friends. Thats what it's all about.


 

goil on 2001-07-02 11:15 [#00011755]



he only released it because Wooferattack kept asking him to.


 

Chrispy from the land of bordom on 2001-07-02 11:21 [#00011756]



Well...maybe, yea. The only way to find out is if he says it
himself. What possessed Richard to release Drunqs. Was the
wait planned? Does he create his music coz he enjoys it,
does it for the fans or does it for the Internet music
popularty. I doubt it's the last one. I know everyone would
like to know the answer, But will he speak? Is he hear?

Will we ever know if he reads these Message Boards.
Phobiazero :- Has richard ever posted a message here before?


 

\/\/ooÆ’erAttack!!! from Milan on 2001-07-02 11:35 [#00011758]



goil: If only it were true... but I don't think so...
Richard was too busy with new album for read my stuff...
My letter on this topic wasn't a serious thing, now I'm
happy because a new double album is ready for us and it's
really fantastic!

\/\/ooÆ’y


 

chrispy from the UK 2 on 2001-07-02 15:23 [#00011775]



Okay everyone! just realized its not called druKqs not
druNks. Drunks would be cool but silly. SOZ everyone. My
Bad.

\/\/ooÆ’erAttack!!! from Milan on 2001-07-02 17:45 [#00011832]



Yeah, Drunks wasn't bad... eh, eh, eh... it would be
nice...

\/\/ooÆ’erAttack!!! from Milan on 2001-07-10 10:11 [#00013690]



... Sorry but it's funny read what the people wrote on this
topic...
How many sceptical and faithless people were here?
Perhaps some of the new AFX-CLONE was one of this guy!

Someone need to trust in Richard D. James more.

Long life to Aphex Twin!
