I don't think that it will be the sticker, it was just the
current afx facebook cover page, hopefully they make a nice
one you can stick on your car with pride

wont buy the cd, i don't have a cd player anywhere. no
turntables. i think i'll make it w/o sticker and maybe buy
the mp3, just because i want to make this gesture, just
because aphex needs money to eat. seriously that would be
giving something back for all the soundcloud wealth

it would be nice to know if the internet made artists sell
more or less music than before. i stopped buying music
because of it, because music shops disappeared, it was even
difficult to find some afx music there before. before it was
like radio to tape and tv to record store. where could i
find a physical Hangable Auto Bulb? or even heard of it? not
where i live.

the doctor attributes it to either a scratch on the one eye,
or early stage vitreous detachment, which almost sounds like
what happens when Arnold's eyes pop out in Total Recall.

sounds a bit nasty, lets hope it clears up soon, at least
you have your ears to listen to the new afx release as you
recuperate!
vitreous detachment havent heard of that one before, heard
of retinal detachment

vitreous detachment can apparently lead to retinal
detachment.

possible release speculation after cheetah:

-album with totally new material
-Drukqs sequel (probably unlikely)
-Saw 3 (unlikely half written)
-Rave colonel track (rephlex rome disco assault track, id
strangle a badger with my bear hands for this one)
-melodies from mars (4 lps worth, consistently hinted at)
-another computer controlled e.p with more pipe organ
-bleep store with all the soundcloud stuff in best available
quality
-another surfing on sinewaves compiled from soundcloud
stuff
-25th anniversary Saw next year
-90's simple style saw tracks created the other year (really
would like to hear this)

still thinking what i could have missed

"i had a really bad chest infection the last 4 days ive
been rolling around on a sofa bed covered in my own sputum,
i havent been able to listen to anything, so was delighted
to see a new release"


i always get a chest infection when a new afx release is
looming. sometimes it even arrives before the email from
warp. just, like, shit... there it is. we're tussin; we got
great exporations. don't even think about trying to stack
the deck by smoking loads of cigarettes; greatness can't be
rushed

as for rolling around on a sofa bed, well, i do that quite
often. i was trying to describe my technique to a friend,
and it came out something like: "You know those 'Inversion
Table' things, where you strap yourself in, tilt, and it
hangs you upside down?" "Yeah." "And do you also know how
bears scratch their backs on trees?" "....uh, yeah." "Put
those two things in a blender and you've pretty much got
it."

you're not rolling correctly. you probably aren't even
gritting your teef.

i cutt myself off on that 1. years, literally years have
been invested in physically exploring household furniture.
long ago at a painfully WASP-y dinner party, some guy was
raving about massages. i thought it was a bit weird and did
not run out to go get a massage. but the sort of adjectives
he was using apply here thoroughy. amazing. fantastic. far
deeper than mere exercise endorphins, which i was already
pretty satisfied with.

on an average day: some inital stretches, some kitchen
counter for my shoulders, next the indian clubs, before
ironing my back out on a hard floor. then i transition over
to the soft meaty folds of a queen size and flail around to
plus ten funk. roll around. i can't explain how; it's too
complicated. then at some point you're doing the worm upside
down and backwards and gradually you're not on the bed
anymore, you're on the floor. there's no distinct
transition; it's more of a gradient. on the floor, you can
do things you can't do on a soft mattress (and vice versa).
the things that work on both work differently on either. a
hard floor is very unforgiving on the knees; the bed feels
fantastic. meanwhile, it's extremely difficult to pop my
vertibre on the bed, but the floors brutality sorts it right
out. there are a thousand pretzel forms i've worked out over
years of this oddness. like i said, it's complicated. then
the music player clicks over to lover's acid, and i am
compelled to dance. force myself to take it slowly at first.
warm up. then some flailing the indian clubs around in a
rather hazardous fashion. eventually, i feel like i'm
starting to strain some of this or that; tendons in my
ankles and shoulders. i study these complaints for the flaws
in my rhythmic flailing approach that led to their presence.
i go back to the bed/floor approach until they float back
off, like a customer with a refunrecently i've discovered a
technique where part of me is on the bed and another part on
a wh

so the other day i asked my brain, "what album should i put
on?" it replied "love's secret domain." most days it's not
so quick to clearly bring up an album i have neither
listened to nor thought of in months, and so when it does, i
listen. to the album it suggests. then i'm reading on
wikipedia about and here's an interview and john's all "you
can dance to 'the snow' but it's not a dance track. we're
using dance rhythms not for dance but for another functional
purpose." paraphrasing, here. in any case, lover's acid is a
dance album, syro is a bed rolling album; what will cheetah
be. title sounds like dance. i hope so

i would make a terrible yoga instructor. the whole thing is
a dialog i have been having with my body for years. we've
been working together for quite a while, like Marcus Burnett
and Mike Lowrey. there's a lot of unspoken communication,
and this is what we do: ~flails~

i don't have words or names for anything; i just learned a
lot of stuff like: when you're on a hard floor, on your left
shoulder, upside down, and that thing over there starts
feeling strained north to northwest, then you should move
this other thing over here. once you feel comfortable with
that, you can throw a flail into your hips in order to
provide the escape velocity required to regain verticality.
then after a year of that, you don't think about any of it
anymore; it's just sort of jamming with momentum vectors. i
picture them sort of like yoyos. you don't think about how
to move your fingers when you type, do you? try to explain
how you type without at least visualizing a keyboard, or
actually sitting down in front of one. how do i type? we'll
let's see. yes, left pinky for shift. always. unless you're
doing an inverted blender bear on a rainy tuesday. my life
is a very long tape delay loop and i have no idea why this
part sounds like an elephant; it just does. stop bothering
me
