OK I admit that on april 1st I tried to start a rumour about an Aphex track called "Black Calx" that was total bollocks. (no-one went for it anyway) BUT this one is real! Its on a compilation called "Excursions in Ambience" on astralwerks records. Anyone else know it? Is it rare? |

actually, I'm not being a patsy, but that DOES ring a bell with me. |

It's a track that is only on the vinyl release of Selected Ambient Works Volume II, and it's better known as "stone in focus". |
||||||||
|

|
Question answered! Thanks. Tis a good track. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Anyway... back to Black Calx. Did you know the vinyl version has a secret loop after the run out on side 2? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
why would he call it 19 and not 'stone in focus'? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Because it was Track 19 on the album and the album didn't have "official" names for the tracks did it? They were make up by filesharers. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i thought they were named, and the names were pictures...this one being a pic of a stone....in focus! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No they were definately untitled. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah technically all those tracks are represented by small pictures. None have actual names. Hence on Blue Jam they are refered to as SAWII CD2 Track 1 or whatever. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what about the cd-release? are they unnamed too? i find the names quite fitting by the way |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
all the saw2 track names are unoffical (except for "blue calx"). |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the track was named #19 for purposes of inclusion on the compilation "excursions in ambience volume three," the whole of which is worth seeking out. the track is like a long, warm hug. very friendly and sweet. hard to believe that there are afx fans who haven't heard it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'd also like to note that online many compilations afx appears on, this one is still in print and relatively cheap ($12-13). it's also on astralwerks, which goes to show that label isn't all wank. (i also like the instrumental hip-hop comp they put out last year, plus earlier Air and how can we forget mu-ziq). |
||||||||

|
|
is this it? Excursions In Ambience - The Third Dimension? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes, try to listen before you buy. I think a lot of it is junk. The Aphex track is definitely the standout. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The Seefeel one is much better IMO. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think a lot of it is junk. You're insane. It's EASILY the best out of the 4-volume series... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
which instrumental hip-hop album might that be? contributors? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's a bit heavy on the [spacey|new age|ancestral memory] ambient spectrum. Not really my cup of tea. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Too bad. Right up my alley... :) |

"Anyway... back to Black Calx. Did you know the vinyl version has a secret loop after the run out on side 2? " are you serious, or what, which record, SAW II??? i never noticed this, i have the brown one on this one, where,???? |
||||||||

| |||||||||
|
|
