To be trendy or not to be trendy. That is the question ?

Is it me or is ours truly, Richard getting trendy ?? Just
wondering what the rest of you guys/gals think about this
trendiness movement towards Aphex?

i like to smell my own farts


 

DblHeLZ from moon on 2001-10-19 18:13 [#00043708]



YEAH! hes TOTALLY ripping off all those fucking boybands!
drukqs might as well be fat of the land part 2.
i saw richard the other day in his new pumas and shades. i
also like how his hair style is so well kept to please the
camera. oh im so glad to be in, listening to The Aphex Twins
yahoo!

oh and you oppinion matters to us. :)


 

Narkotic from Orange County, California, USA on 2001-10-19 18:15 [#00043710]



no shit..rdj is the most UNtrendy person i've seen.. i mean
long hair and scruffy ass beards have been out since '73...
i often wander what he would look like if he shaved
everything off..


 

PowerPillPacman AKA The Stay Puff MarshMellow Man from Gerbil Ice Station Beta 1 on 2001-10-19 18:17 [#00043711]



I didnt mean it like that. I meant to say ***people think of
Aphex Twin as trendy*** You didnt think i meant Aphex was
changing his style?? That would be deversating.


 

DblHeLZ from moon on 2001-10-19 18:17 [#00043712]



i just cant wait for the aphex twin plush toys and action
figures!!


 

DblHeLZ from moon on 2001-10-19 18:18 [#00043714]



he changes his style on every freakin album!
who are you!?
none of his albums have the same feel.


 

Narkotic from Orange County, California, USA on 2001-10-19 18:18 [#00043715]



lol yea dbl, imagine burger king over here givin out happy
meal AFX toys. "now every kid can have his own RDJ"! they'll
have to pull them off of the shelf cause it screams out
"come to daddy" at 3am in the morning and kids are scared of
the dark now.

fart


 

PowerPillPacman AKA The Stay Puff MarshMellow Man from Gerbil Ice Station Beta 1 on 2001-10-19 18:23 [#00043716]



:) HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA

I liked that idea, but i mean with Madonna, Slipknot and
Limp Bizkit wanting to work with him.

I understand that Aphex changes his style i've got a fair
few albums.

I completey obessed with the music myself. I've been
collecting his stuff for the past 2 years. But failed
miseribly


 

DblHeLZ from moon on 2001-10-19 18:23 [#00043717]



i hope he cuts his hair short and bleaches it!
hed look sooo hot.
oh oh, and i hope he starts having guest artists like kool
kieth and celine dion for backing vocals when he comes out
with his first album on bad boy records!


 

DblHeLZ from moon on 2001-10-19 18:25 [#00043718]



how is there any simalarity between
SAW 1, 2 , i care because you do, and richard d. james
album??


 

DblHeLZ from moon on 2001-10-19 18:26 [#00043719]



i here he'll have guest vocal apearance on south park! lol

god what a joke


 

Narkotic from Orange County, California, USA on 2001-10-19 18:32 [#00043720]



hahah on bad boy records... instead of bein p-diddy, he'll
be p-dicky...

dbl! down boy, down!


 

PowerPillPacman AKA The Stay Puff MarshMellow Man from Gerbil Ice Station Beta 1 on 2001-10-19 18:38 [#00043721]



Want the frick is up with you. I said people started looking
up to aphex. Aphex has never changed. hes always been
completey wacky. I hate that fucking p-diddy trendy crap.

I've seen record shops around me getting sections to Aphex.
Im seeing his music around more. Hes more well know


 

DblHeLZ from moon on 2001-10-19 18:42 [#00043724]



OH yeah.
i love all the posters hanging all around the record stores
reminding me of his new album, drukqs!



 

Narkotic from Orange County, California, USA on 2001-10-19 18:43 [#00043725]



yes a little more popular.... that happens when you relase
so many records and start doing MTV music videos.. . 90% of
the people on this board are under 20 and got into aphex all
because of the come to daddy video on MTV... and notice that
come to daddy is the most popular release according to the
polls on this board. but trust me, when the majority of the
public goes and buys drukqs, they're gonna be like.. uh this
isn't the same as come to daddy, and then they wont be into
it anymore.


 

DblHeLZ from moon on 2001-10-19 18:46 [#00043729]



GOOD EFFIN' point nark!
now i know who all these fuckers saying drukqs is full of
fillers and crap are!
wow i never thought of that.
my first aphex twin album was i care because you do.
i bought it after hearing the tracks by him off the further
down the spiral ep by nine inch nails.


 

Narkotic from Orange County, California, USA on 2001-10-19 18:48 [#00043732]



thats how i got started, from that NIN album. Then I went
and got SAW II and was like.. uhhhh .. but you'll notice
that every album he puts out is completely different
style... it grows on you


 

DblHeLZ from moon on 2001-10-19 18:50 [#00043733]



rock on , nark.
people need to give it a chance.
i owned SAW 2 for almost a year before i actually started to
like it.
same with all autechre releases.
at first i was disgusted, then i started craving the stuff.


 

Narkotic from Orange County, California, USA on 2001-10-19 18:53 [#00043735]



yes, this music is an addicting drug..


 

DblHeLZ from moon on 2001-10-19 18:58 [#00043737]



skinny puppy is another friggin' addictive groupe


 

Narkotic from Orange County, California, USA on 2001-10-19 19:03 [#00043743]



Couldn't get into SP too much, but damn NIN and KMFDM i was
really into.


 

DblHeLZ from moon on 2001-10-19 19:04 [#00043745]

DblHeLZ from moon on 2001-10-19 19:04 [#00043746]

Narkotic from Orange County, California, USA on 2001-10-19 19:06 [#00043747]



Pig... alright..had a few relases..but i'm not really into
that music scene anymore.. like excessive force, or front
line assmebly..

Ross on 2001-10-19 19:34 [#00043759]



give powerpill some respect, what he's saying is pretty
true..he's becoming trendy in a different way than a lot of
artists, but by no means popular..i mean, he's regarded by a
lot of musicians as a great genius..


 

DblHeLZ from moon on 2001-10-19 20:57 [#00043769]

PowerPillPacman from Stay Puff MarshMellow Man Land on 2001-10-20 12:23 [#00043908]



Thanks Ross for sticking up for me.

I mean but over here in england, in the ninetines i had to
ask the guy behind the counter at the record shop if he had
anything by aphex twin. He would then disappear into the
back tryin to find anything remotely to do with aphex. And
then probably come back without anything.

But now i go into shops and all i have to do is look under a
to find a section for aphex twin.


 

Ross on 2001-10-20 20:05 [#00043973]



Powerpill, i understand, in a way it's good though and in a
way not..Before it was fun to try to get something that
couldnt be easily bought, now it's a lot more convenient,
his music hasnt changed for the worse though, thankfully..


 

holy_nodal on 2001-10-20 20:21 [#00043977]



have to agree with powerpuff. but then rdj pretends he
doesn't do any press and then takes everything he's offered,
so it's not surprising if he's overground. and the fact that
people are addressing each other 'whoa dude' on this board
is pretty much all the proof you need.
