I saw him DJ in Newcastle last August. I'm afraid I can't remember all that much about it though because I'd had a lot to drink. I do remember the last track he played: the old-skool classic "Sweet Harmony". I seem to remember him playing stuff off his laptop as well as records. I also got to shake his hand. |

I don't know..... It was weird - I almost managed to talk my way into going backstage to meet him by talking to one of the promoters while I was drunk. The only reason he almost let me was because he thought I was someone else (apparently I look a lot like one of the roadies or something). When he eventually realised that I was just a pissed fan, he looked quite embarrassed and then naffed off. I just shook AFX's hand while he was playing. I shambled over to the DJ booth like a pissed oaf and stuck my hand out. To my surprise, he obliged.....he probably thought I was a drunken twat though. A friend of mine reckons one of his mates ended up at a party afterwards in Newcastle that AFX also went to, and apparently he was being a right wanker, throwing stuff around this person's house and being a cunt. So they through him out. I just went home afterwards cos I was f'ed. |

Well, yes, Aphex. Apparently he was looking for a phone number in the telephone directory at this guy's house, but couldn't find the number, so he got really angry and started throwing stuff around. Basically, through a tantrum. It might not actually have happened though. It's quite possibly just gossip. |

Oh yes, if i saw old Dick James coming out of the club tierd and in need of a beverage, i would kindly invite him back to my house for a light refreshment. BUT... If he started to rummage through my yellow pages for an unlisted number, and throw it across the room in a childish temper. I would say, OI APHEX NOOOOO I admire your skill to manipulate and distort a funky drum beat until it sounds like someone with a puematic drill is trying to write his name in concrete with the damn thing, put i do NOT admire ure temper of a three year old, NOW GO IN YOUR COT FOR A 5 MINUTE TIME OUT Ahh the Harry Enfield technique :) |

this soundclash thing with LV comes from that gig in hackney last year. the two were billed as djing but they played together for most of the night......luke played records handed to him by RDJ and then that k-rock chap started mcing.........the vocals were then fucked around with live by RDJ..........so .... EXPECT SOME AMAZING SOUNDS cos that was a well hard, fast and furious, taken-to-the-apex gig!!!!!!!! |
