finally got around to listening to this. was intentionally
avoiding it for a while everyone was trying to figure out
who it was. i was afraid it would affect how i heard the
music :(

its brilliant! anyone know if there's gonna be more?

it's awesome. something about it takes me back to sitting on
the couch, jobless watching Votoms all day. makes me think
of playing super nintendo and being a happy kid

hm, yeah - it sounds a bit like uziq i guess around the
edges.. i guess it is a little reminescent of lunatic
harness. whoever made it, they should make more haha

I really like Richard D James, also the Tuss (dis)guise.
However, I find him to be a track (and live), not an album
artist. I have a hard time listening to a whole album
(except, peculiarly, the Caustic Window LP).

Yeah, I thought it was AFX!? Isn't it?

well we all know that afx loves pseudonyms, silly cornish
slang and analog instruments, if the quality of the
arrangments wasnt enough of a clue.

Yeah it sounds alot more like AFX than Paradinas.

someone posted that album website (not discogs) a while back
which lists the producer of Rushup Edge as Richard D. James,
but I'm still not convinced it's just one person.

Mike Paradinas and Richard James went to college together.
James studied electronics and Paradinas studied
Archaeology.

They became great friends, often sharing a glass of frothing
ale at the local pub. There they hatched a fiendish plan -
The Tuss.

Proof is, as they say, in the pudding and the similarities
between the Tuss and Lunatic Harness cannot be denied.

The End.

The Tuss compared to Expert Knob Twiddlers is worlds apart.

It's Richard D. James. No one else. Trust me on this, for
your own sanity.

i love the idea of about 4 blokes in a room all huddled
around one computer screen all pointing and nudging, 'yeh
yeh now put that last bit in again but half the speed,
reverse it and then drill it, whilst pushing up the
reverb.'

'yeah mate, that's good but less of the reverb'

'but i like the reverb'

'we've been through this mike'

'fuck off aphex'

He calls him 'Big Dicky J' not 'aphex'. Remember that for
future erotic fan fiction.

I didn't know there was still speculation on this? it isn't
just aphex to those with a good set of ears, it just is
aphex. We know alot down here in chelmsford, speaking to the
jenkinsons (ceephax/squarepusher) at mrs cod at 3 in the
morning you know.

I wrote a kind of poem about the tuss

Its tongue, cherry red, flashes desperately against the
white spittle that fills its tiny tuss. I feel physically
sick at the sight of its writhing tuss turning over the dead
leaves. The others mutter in agreement, unhappy with the
tuss. I continue, "Jesus, look at the tuss," we were
gathering in the same corner, huddled between the road and
the yellow tuss block. I can't work out why at first and
then I figure that it's probably the tuss gathering us,
trapping us helplessly in a whirling eddy of tuss

How many pricks does it take to get to the tussieroll center
of a tussie pop? The world may never know.
