Just read our local College radiostation newspaper ( CITR 101.9FM) and it featured an interview with Luke Vibert.
They asked him the question about Aphex ever releasing any new music and he answered that Aphex had been telling a few people that he has a quadruple album ready for release ( well obviously its a double one), also Luke has been playing new tracks by Aphex in his latest DJ sets and described them to be very acid-y ( doesnt mean those are gonna be on the album ofcourse).
Well , I didnt check out Luke when he came to town 2 months ago, maybe someone else has seen him on his North American tour??

Very interesting, PMV...! Hopefully RDJ will release something new every year.

I think he meant the vinyl version by quadruple.

PostModernVancouver, I saw Vibert when he came to play in Chicago. He did a terrific job DJing, and he was spinning some alien shit.. could have been unreleased AFX stuff, dunno. I was also very drunk, but there was this cool visual show going on too and all kinds of shit. And before his set I actually got to meet him and shake old Luke's hand near the stairs. Afterwards he was down at the smartbar spinning and my friend and I were behind the DJ booth watching him play in awe. Luke's always smoking a spliff and at one point in the set he passed his jay along to me, and my friend and I both took a few nice hits and passed it back. Wow he smokes some good stuff because it made me like 10x more drunk, thanks Luke!

Yer right mr. Frankfurt about it being the vinyl version of the album, I also remember about 2 and half years ago that about 6 months before the Windowlicker release that Luke was playing WL in his dj sets and actually had it on one of his archived DJ sets back in late 98 (on his own website), and thats when there was still this debate going on if Windowlicker was actually Windowlicker , since it first surfaced about August of 98 on the net ( way before the eventual Feb 99 release), remember that Phobazerio??
Yes, I did see Luke spin here in the fall of 1998, but tbh wasnt too impressed, not because of his lack of mixing skills, but I disliked about 65% of what he played, sorry, I cant get into having Michael Jackson being played in a current Dj set ( unless its totally remixed and fu*ked up), I dislike nostalgia from 15 to 30 years ago in DJ sets..
But other then that he seemed like a really nice guy, and yes smoking spliff after spliff, and smiling all the way....

I dont want to sound stupid but could someone tell me what a ACID sounding track is?
What is ACID music?
Have AFX made some acid music? (If, tell me wich tracks..)
Dont tell me that ACID is some wack hardcore rave type of bullshit (like that Fantasia track).
I like AFXs gabba, idm, hip hop, trip hop ambient and drill n bass music.

I agree with you completely, swimmyfishy. It's also got some of the biggest style contrasts from track to track, so the ear is always being served a fresh treat.
