i suppose what it boils down to is that aphex has been dangling "i have six albums finished" for years now, and instead we get microwaved postmodern horseshit. interns writing max/msp patches and some tool wandering around backstage with hipster-chic tape recorders thinking he's prometheus bringing fire to the fanboys |

where can i buy your cardboard and hot glue collages? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
come 'round to my place in massachusetts and you can have one for $20. they're poster-size and not good enough to warrant boxing up properly. just do 'em 'cos i find it relaxing.... cardboard's easy to work with and hot glue sets quickly. i listen to NPR as i work |

Earlier I asked EpicMegatrax if he wanted a cup of tea but he said he only communicates through his music. He posted a link to his band camp thing. |

someone was on about a 'spectral synth' patch or something i was wondering whether it was a bit like the talking piano 'we declare that' thing... really interesting idea for a orchestra to do such a thing .. ? |

like you wanking on front of a aphex event enjoy wanking the pianos sounds between two wankers |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
as the piano swung, a pair of wankers stood up and began cheering. it's amazing how much they added to the sonics of the piece |
||||||||
|
|

Is that a real sentence? |

as epicmegatrax continued to diss aphex in vain he repressed his feelings even more about his own below average music and his complete denial that he wasn't very good at anything. This was due in part to the fact that he'd put his head up his own rectum at 'high velocity', with the hot glue. it wasn't epic's week as the day before he'd accidentally hotglued his tiny ball sack to one of his collages right after his mum caught him wanking in front of the mirror. |

you've missed an important quantifier, 808flaps. i'm not dissing aphex, i'm dissing this gimmicky orchestral thing he did. it's a watered-down ripoff of keith emerson's flying piano (linked above). the piano piece itself, if you simply listen to it instead of being distracted by the spectacle, is shit. the ones on drukqs were much better.... on this, he just sort of plays a chord each time the piano reaches a zenith. boring. i just worry he's had people sucking his dick for so many years, he's forgotten how to put a real piece of music together. like fatboy slim says, i'm #1, so why try harder? |

" i'm dissing this gimmicky orchestral thing he did. it's a watered-down ripoff of keith emerson's flying piano (linked above)." incorrect, the swinging piano was about the SOUND, hence the long held chords. doppler effect on the strings, which was totally fucking amazing, coz i was sat 10meteres from it, like the ultimate chorus, leslie effect, easily the most beautiful thing I ever heard/saw at a show, pretty creepy as well, half a ton piano swinging...I think it must have been reinforced, surely the legs would snap otherwise? I thought as did my mate that maybe the strings were stretching and loosening, maybe slightly, as the pitch changing really was complex and seemed more than just a doppler shift. emersons is about the show, and NOTHING to do with the sound, as his is not a real piano, hes miming or did you not notice that? I think if you didnt notice emersons was mimed then the whole thing would probably be wasted on you anyway. I dont mean this in a nasty way, just most people are not THAT into sound. Also a piano wouldnt work upside down. saw all your links before btw,nothing new there, voder one is a good un yeah, classic, bit like heinrich mueller and his missus. anyway good luck with your music and the collages, its been great to hang out with you positive people, im outta here! |

Ok, will do one last thing, just wanted to get this absolutely right, you are dissing a gig you didn't actually go to right? now thats a topic all of its own don't you think? btw I had to give the Nagra back, it was on lend, V nice machine though, pretty good clip mic |

i'm just being a jerk; i'm sure it was lovely. i hadn't even considered that pianos might not work upside down |

alright, alright, here's an idea. at this point every man and his ferret has spilled beer on a casio sk-1 and laid claim to its gurgling last gasps as a part of their personal artiest. but what about when you that chap with the chunky glasses outbids you, paying 92quid for a stock SK-1 when you only had 88? well, EpicMegatrax is here to save your bacon with a cunning backup plan 1) find a . ideally, it would have cost $hundreds new, and your high school "digital music lab" had 30 of them, and they were mad cool until you realized what you actually wanted was a sampler. 2) open that bad boy up. vacuum out the bed bugs (hey, you got this keyboard for free, right? just tell people it's like restoring a car or some shit). find the chip that says 32MB VOICE PROM or some derivation thereof. doodle around it with sharpie. scout out good points to put in a dozen patch jacks in a drunken furor. 3) this is the hard part: find the voice and address lines. essentially, the voice prom is a giant phone book: the CPU gives it coordinates, it returns precise chunks of a wavetable some engineer at roland recorded with $50k mics. via randomly shorting these points together, you simultaneously create new addresses while screwing with the returned results. in my universe, quinn has a masters in data bending. the ones on the outer corners and/or the ones connected to large veins of soldier are power/ground; don't touch those. just use a bit of wire and poke at it for a while. engineers are orderly chaps, it'll likely be in a cluster of 8 or 16 etc., though sometimes it goes off the edge of the chip and wraps around the other side (you'll know what i mean when you see it) and voila. you'll have instant glitch you can't ever get from a fucking vst, manually patchable, and MIDI-controllable. |

I didn't personally see the show but from just the youtube vids i saw, if the new Aphex album was a DVD with professionally recorded video/audio of the show, i'd be extremely satisfied. I guess it's as much of a long shot as Autechre releasing their best material in the last half-decade, the Untilted, Quaristice and Oversteps live shows as mastered board recordings. |
