I'm tempted to say something like "make it big" by his alias
"wham!", but I don't know... I might get banned or
something. Why don't you go to cdnow.com, listen to the mp3
samples and decide for yourself?


 

greenCALX from The Independent Republic of Texas on 2001-10-04 20:20 [#00038957]



Green CALX. I recommend Green CALX.

Seriously, though, pick up Selected Ambient Works 85-92.
You'll pay a few dollars more than a normal CD since it's
only in import pressings (in America) but it's well worth
it.


 

Barrett, Syd from T Dot on 2001-10-04 20:27 [#00038959]



SAW 85-92 isn't that wonderful.

I'd recomend any of the recent LP's (i.e. I care because you
do, Richard D James) or the E.P Come To Daddy... Just find a
file sharing service, and search aphex twin, and download
everything you can find, listen to them, whatever you like
the most, pick up that album.

i dont get you "wham" thing mmmmmmwwwmwmwmwm could you help?


 

recycle from drukqs on 2001-10-04 20:52 [#00038962]



rags----i recomend you getting "drukqs"..it comes out on
october 23 here in the states..............



 

balthus from europe on 2001-10-04 21:21 [#00038966]



you should listen to everything...

everyone here has his favourite albums, some prefer the
early ones (selected ambient works vol.1, analogue
bubblebath), some prefer i care because you do and the
richard d. james album, some prefer selected ambient works
vol.2, some prefer this and his more recent ones like come
to daddy and windowlicker or even his new drukqs. i love the
selected ambient works, donkey rhubarb, boy girl ep., come
to daddy and windowlicker (for track 2 and 3).

so really, listen to everything, and find your own
favourites, that's the best way to get into richard d.
james' music.

well, anyway, listen to...

boy girl (from the richard d. james album or the boy girl
ep.)

flim, come to daddy little lord faulteroy mix and iz-us
(from the come to daddy ep.)

nannou (from windowlicker)

i guess these tracks are a very good introduction into
aphex...



 

balthus from europe on 2001-10-04 21:27 [#00038968]



i have only heard excerpts from drukqs, but what i heard was
great. so, check this out, too. it seems that it's a very
uncommon album (but which aphex album wasn't?), there are
tracks for piano, prepared piano, and more 'traditional'
electronic tracks.


 

balthus from europe on 2001-10-04 21:30 [#00038969]



sh---, this is embarassing... of course it's

girl boy ep. (and not boy girl)

sorry! :°)


 

recycle from drukqs on 2001-10-04 21:36 [#00038970]



bathus-its ok !!! you did well..........
forget the boy/girl or girl/boy itll be ok


 

balthus from europe on 2001-10-04 21:47 [#00038971]



no, i don't think it's ok... it's really embarrassing. i'm
doing here my would be aphex authority and in turn i make a
mistake. i listen to this song so often and i don't know
it's correct name (but until this i knew it... strange).
could you imagine, richard d. james is reading this and
laughing out loud, 'oh yes, i always said that my fans are
fucked up.' and his girlfriend says, ' don't do this, don't
read the messageboards of your fans, you will get your
nervous breakdown again, aphex.' poor aphex :-D


 

balthus from europe on 2001-10-04 21:57 [#00038973]



and aphex says, 'nah, after reading the fucked joyrex faq, i
reckon i'm sort of fucked anyway.'

aphex' girlfriend, 'please aphexsweets, you said that you
would give up swearing. you know mummy is visiting us at
weekend, and she is so easily shocked. play one of your nice
tunes on the piano to here, and she'll be nice, too. and
also don't make that ugly faces again when she's here.'



 

balthus from europe on 2001-10-04 21:59 [#00038974]



and i say, 'don't look at the typing/grammatical errors.'

recycle: yeah, most people havn't even found out yet, but
aphex made a lot of music under the side project "Wham!".
