AFX rare songs?

I've accumulated a good few supposed Aphex tracks on search
engines like Kazaa and such...can anyone tell me if any of
these are real or fake?

Amenida
La Nuit (Slumber Mix)
Kick Ass Violin Solo
O Fortuna (remix)

there are a few more but those are the ones i am most
curious about the origins...elements of all four sound like
they could actually be AFX, but i can't be sure...

help?

O Fortuna is most likely Apotheosis though hehe.

REFLEX and Alberto, those are not rare. Very good, but not
rare...

And Spaced, man, all these tracks are really fake :(

Slsk is mostly not working because that bitch Nir is
constantly reupgrading their damn server... Apart from that,
Slsk is the best thing for music

Melodies From Mars is really cool. I can't understand why it
wasn't released.

For that matter, I can't understand why it's so hard to find
these unreleased songs, if they don't plan to make money out
of them.

When were the trax of Melodies from Mars composed anyway?
Two of ´em found their way to RDJ album, so are they from
1996?

The story goes that it was going to be released at the time
of 'Richard D. James' album, which is how the demo got out,
but for some reason decided to combine the previous two
e.p.s instead.

Melodies From Mars alway reminded me of Earthbound (I know
everyone thinks that)

lol, yeah i remember that Apotheosis' "O Fortuna" track, it
had this sample from Carl Orff's Carmina Burana in it (i
think it was taken off the market after a while 'cause of
that sample, somethin' to do with artist rights)

nothing to do with aphex though

screen behind the mirror' album..

la nuit (slumber mix) is bochum welt. the same ep has a
track called fortune green. like global goon, when some of
bochum welt's records came out, people speculated that it
was really aphex twin. afx did collaborate with gianluigi
(who is bw) on a track called "interlude," which sounds very
afx.

all global goon tracks are made with aphex twins
synsethisers, that why they sounded so similar at that time

afecks since when do you post here?
cos you seem to know a lot about aphex but still you are a
newbie here... where you a lurker? do you come from watmm?
which is your story?

i think there are other places to learn about aphex as well
as messageboards - like magazines NME etc. I read about
global goon in an interview he gave in 96.
