mine is SAAB ~ SpAceAgeBachelor
Aphex Twin’s music might sound like it comes from another world, but, in fact, it is recorded in this world. Just like you and me, he puts his pants on one leg and a time. This music is not beamed down from space. This in mind, I ask him where he likes to normally record. “Just in my bedroom sort of thing. I’ve got to have my studio close to my bed. That’s the only important factor.” Really, I am asking the most serious questions on this day. I have unlimited tape and readers with an unlimited attention span. So do you like lie on your bed and make music? “I do that as well, cause I’ve got my laptop as well. So I go to bed with my laptop. It keeps the bed warm as well. If you leave it on, you can lie in the bed with your computer.”
just my personal hunch here, but this interviewer person probably did a far better than any of the others ever did

he said his girlfriend stepped on his laptop and broke and made disappear a whole bunch (a load of) drukqs era trax! very sad if true. also very sad would be if the trax are still there on his drive somewhere and that he just doesnt want people to copy his genius ideas from back then. really want to hear stuff from that drukqs era, there was a craig david remix mentioned in an interview with the guardian (something really "aggro"). im not a yakuza and i wouldnt cut off my finger to get to listen to that remix, but i am a yakuza in that id cut off all your fingers and foreskins if it meant i got to listen to it. just kidding.

he should have kept on with just the laptop, he was the best laptop musician going... i reckon he stopped cuz he likes being special and doing stuff that there is a bar to (buying/using loads of gear)
He didn't lose the recordings just the mods - i reckon all the drukqs trax were recorded to DAT just like everything else - eg. "54 cymru beat" - 54 is the track index, like he has on the other soundcloud ones
i think he should sell all his gear and just go back inside the computer again
i am up a mountain on my battered old thinkpad rn, drinking cider and listening to tunes... Hi!

like d00d, have u seen the house Jeremy Corbyn lives in that's how he was so popular, not cos ppl liked him because of that (although they did),
but with less shit you are able to concentrate better, on the stuff that matters.

We just bumped into the first light that we've seen. We're about a 150 -200 yards from the site. Everything else is just deathly calm. There's no doubt about it, there's some kind of strange flashing red light ahead.
SGT NEVILLES: Yeah, It's yellow. LT COLONEL HALT: I saw a yellow tinge in it too. Weird. It appears to be making a little bit this way?
SGT NEVILLES: Yes sir. LT COLONEL HALT: It's brighter than it has been...It's coming this way. It's definitely coming this way.

drukqs had loads of great DSP and FM sounds, mad attention to detail, granular synthesis, everything cool. must have taken a month or more to make each track
thats all i have to say

his girlfriend didnt step on that laptop did she? it's hard to tell, are there hundreds of drukqs era tracks or just a few unreleased ones
the only known one is the craig david remix that he mentioned in a guardian interview
id buy that for a dollar! shame about copyright and stuff, i guess it's in craig david's hands.

the amount of samples on the drukqs tracks made me wonder if there are lots of little simple tracks on his hard drive
like he build the sample packs up week by week and then eventually had so many samples he could build complicated tracks like cymru beats
or did he make each track from scratch? lol. i could ask him questions all day long on soundclound but you have to respect someone's privacy in the end innit

i think she did yeah, but Steve is saying he backed them up to DAT before that happened, well hope he did, or at least saved the hard drive somewhere,

yeah the temptation is great to keep badgering him, as you say I wouldn't expect a reply to have of the bollocks I post on his SoundCloud, he doesn't own me anything,
I have a real issue with curiosity, like the stuff I'm interested in I just have to know all the details, don't know why, knowing trivial little details is a delight to me haha!

bout drukqs though yeah bit weird how we have never heard any unreleased stuff even live, perhaps we have but no one identified it. Find it difficult to think he has a whole bunch of tracks with the complexity of something like ziggomatic, i couldn't comprehend even doing that one track, having the patience

http://www.audiosynth.com/files/sc-users-archive/v01.n225 ask James Mc ,he's seen some tasty ones a friend and me have been pissing
about with for the last 4 years.
theyre even better now James!!!
Ive got this one patch for sc1 ,well I call it a patch but it really is more
like a complete composition/track writing environment in its 24th
revision!,sort of a cross between a tracker/CDP by trev wishart/Koan/very
very sorted waveform editor unlike anything else/sample manager/voice
synth/LPC stuff and shed loads of other things ,pisses over every other prg
out there badly!, hehehe makes things like reason look like a casio sk1. and no I havnt released anything using it ,too much fun playing with it
~smile~
I often wondered why you dont see more BIG patches for supercollider,I mean
for likkle fings that do this and that I prefer MSP or reaktor to quickly
bang out stuff but I always thought the point of using a prg like SC was to
create your own environments that do multiple things, not just a few.
Anyone here done anything like that,apart from ALberto?

>>> are there hundreds of drukqs era tracks or just a few unreleased ones the amount of work that went into those things there are a lot less, my guess. he was putting the effort he would into 10 or 20 trax into 1... hence the version numbers maybe
>>> umbroman sc-users quote that was a load of bollocks to wind ppl up on the list you can't do LPC in SC1... can only do it in SCserver with plugins

despite his public pronouncements on not giving a shit about what ppl think, i think he at least a bit upset that drukqs didn't smash it with journo reviewers more than his previous ones, mbe he had started listening to them when he hadn't before...dunno.
I always listen to it all the way through once a month off vinyl ... Hex Enduction Hour too.
