Is it just me...or do the Rephlex staff just do stuff purposley to piss everyone off.
At times i get extremely annoyed with them, making a EP/CD ultra rare by only having 3 copies actually made. Take the Astrobotnia series, i bet you that Versions 1 and 3 will be easy to get, but because version 2 is on LP/EP they are gonna make it considerably hard for die hard fans of thier music to get it.
I hate this type of shit, alot of people do it, WARP especially do it, with rare Autechre realeses and Aphex's HAB 1+2 relaeses
Am i the only one who gets pissed off at this?

I think sometimes RDJ is completely full of shit and a hipocrite. Ie-he was going on about getting rid of copyright on all his rephlex stuff then makes AB5 so hard (impossible?) to get

i know......i dont think he realizes how many fans he has half the time
He needs to brush his noisy red hair out of his eyes and look into the sea of fans and followers he has right from the start

Yes, it's annoying. If music is good, it should be available to everyone.

I actually agree, but still...i think its stupid that he only realesed drukQs cause he lost an MP3 player. Otherwise i bet we wouldnt hear anything from him for about another 2 years

i love his music.......and i love Squarepusher and BoC's music.....but someone stated (i think ti was Ophecks) that IDM artists (use that term carefully) just dont take things seriously.
The guy that tkes it seriosuly it Tom Jenkinson, he takes his fans seriously i think, and hes relased shit loads

you really believe that? I'm pretty sure that's just bullshit building up the myth & mystique of the music before its release

"I actually agree, but still...i think its stupid that he only realesed drukQs cause he lost an MP3 player."
I kinda like that though, too much mainstream genres are too far up their own arses to see they are making shit.
"The guy that tkes it seriosuly it Tom Jenkinson, he takes his fans seriously i think, and hes relased shit loads"
I don't think he takes the fans any more seriously, he just loves making music and releases it, I don't think he gives much of a shit whether they like it or not. I mean, releasing Music Is... is an example of that, its not disliked, but its not what half the fans wanted

Yeah, about toms seriousness. I reckon this has something to do with why his music is at opposite ends of the scale. Some is the most serious and beautiful music and it must take him ages, programming it. But at the other end, some are like these humorous splurges of noises, like some of the stuff on Selection 16. I think he pushes himself to the limits on some tracks like Tommorrow World then just needs to wind down and have some fun

Yeah, I mean, I abolsutely love Selection 16, but that's cos the good tracks are so good I don't give a shit if some of the others are crap. And anyway, i've grown to like the other like snake pass and skizm track 2

yeah but I think last two tracks are filler, someone said my fucking sound was the one getting played in clubs, I couldn't believe it
I also reckon tom's overdoing it is the reason he goes on little trips to unknown places =)
But this is all my theory, i'd have to meet him to really tell.....but doing stuff that intense has got to have an effect on you mentally

i agree
Is it just me or do RDJ, Tom and Chris Cunningham all look like tramps
A mate of mine once said that Chris Cunninghma looks like one of these people that would smell lol
It is said that all ginger people smell of wee, but i think RDJ smells more of things that have rolled under the ocuch LOL
