good question, one i'd like to see a definitive answer to myself but for now, it's mostly speculation and a creative lot at that.
there are two confirmed "new" tracks on the rerelease of Surfing On Sine Waves which you might be interested in. i really like those Polygon Window tracks. also the "Vis Inack" thing -- a hoax or not? -- which i think you can find on Joyrex.com, i haven't seen it posted here at Aphextwin.nu yet. or search Napster for the "Vis Inack" MP3, all of the ones i've seen are 160 kbps, about 4:43 min. in length timewise.
hope this helps a bit, you take care now :).
P.S. are you a fan of the band Pop Will Eat Itself? on a related note, i fancy Clint Mansell's Pi soundrack.

We have not posted the 'Vis Inack' here since I believe it's a hoax (I hope it is). Anyway, I don't wanna spread rumour-tracks. There are too many on the Net already.
Hopefully it'll get listed in the Hoaxes-droplet soon!?

Phobiazero: a complete Hoaxes report would be great. it's unfortunate that on Napster and other flle distro nets (i'm *not* blaming anyone, of course!), once a file gets mislabelled, the unfortunate typo gets carried on and on and on ad infinitum...... i'll say no more, except for:
i do enjoy some of these hoaxes, not because they're falsely being attributed to Aphex, but as being good music in their own right -- i.e. the violin/d 'n' b "To Forgive But Not Forget" by Outside which is often mistaken as an Aphex track. i like it.

There is already a list over known hoaxes in the EXPLORE-section...maybe you knew that already.

i haven't visited that list in the new v4, but i saw it... looks like a comprehensive list of titles. my humble suggestion tho: maybe it'd be nice to go further and compile more info, like the actual producer behind each of the hoaxes and what it's actually called (if applicable), where it can be found for curious listeners (Napster prolly), and soforth. whatever you think would be worthwhile, Phobiazero.
BTW, i'm not sure if "Breathe (like an Aphex Twin mix)" should be considered a hoax or not... it comes across to me as being more of one of our fan remixes, you know? especially since it's titled as "LIKE an...". it's Aphex-inspired but not claiming to be by him.
the "Speed Racer" hoax is originally by Alpha Team aka DJ Keoki, non?

The list is there for clearing out things. No matter if it's a remix, fake-track or whatever. As long as the track is confusing the fans - then it should be there to prove it's not made by Rich.
As for more comprehensive info about the track...sure, but it's deep down on my list. I don't really like to promote artists who have made faked tracks -- then maybe everybody starts to make hoaxes just to get on the list with their name on it.
But if you're having specific info or details about the hoaxes then please send it to me -- that might speed things up.

popwilleatitse1f: Richard has some still unreleased stuff (EXPLORE-section for details), but they won't be released in the near future. Reissues and side-projects are what we'll get pretty soon. I think we should be satisfied with this. =)
Just make sure to buy all his previous stuff.

Phobiazero: thanks for clarifying. i know what you mean, and it's good to end the confusion, although perhaps another logical place to put this sort of info -- eventually since you are so hardworking and busy -- would be in a FAQ. i know Steve Price (Loopz),a jolly good guy, of the official Orbital website is planning to do that for Orbital.
you said: "I don't really like to promote artists who have made faked tracks"
this is totally understandable :)! but i'm sure you also understand the many different circumstances in which these situations come about. a number of the ones you have listed at the moment don't seem to be tracks meant to be passed off as fake, but rather, are the result of unintentional labelling errors like i mentioned earlier. i think it's alright and reasonable to give pointers in certain instances... i.e. i believe Outside's "To Forgive But To Not Forget" (aka "kickass violin solo") is a good piece, even if it's not Aphex Twin... and other people might be interested in a tangential way to know who REALLY made it.
BTW, seems a lot of people nowadays are confusing RDJ's remix of "Popcorn" with the original Kingsley track which is used on that pampers commercial. coincidence? i think not :o)!
