i just read at watmm.com that an image has been decoded from a track from 2 Remixes by AFX.
maybe those two noise tracks on Smojphace that, reportedly, are so shitty (haven't heard them myself) can be manipulated into something better!
get to work, guys!

heres a little conversation about that first MEN 1 release I had with a sorry trainspotter...
John "The Infamous IDM Trainspotter": I actually liked the third track on that first MEN release, u know the one with those acid remixes, its kinda sounding like beautiful modem noise, nobody but Aphex Twin can make modem noise sound that beautiful.
Me: Yuck, that fucking noise sucks.
John "The Infamous IDM Trainspotter": Nah, its just taste man, u got to listen to Satanstornade, now thats some beautiful noise too man!!
Me: The only "noise" I actually liked is Tim Heckers stuff but thats not really noise I rather call that ambient.
John "The Infamous IDM Trainspotter": U dont get it, u should here the noise on the latest AFX release its called smojphace, some really beautiful noise right there..

what do u mean by trainspotter? has this term adopted a new connotation that describes an obsessive completist/collector of an artist's music?

smojophace fuckin sucked, who cares if you can decode it into something else better? ofcourse you can, anything would be better than this garbage, besides, if he made it with the intent of people being able to do that, or rather almost having to, to enjoy it, would be rather stupid

This "theory" probably comes from a number of sources - the fact that 'equation' had a hidden face; that a very funny fake was posted on watmm involving the noise tracks and a C64; and that some people have to justify this release by saying it's a joke. I don't like the noise tracks, I do like the remix. Some people obviously do like em, so leave em alone. You sound like those people who laugh at IDM and listen to Justin Timberlake.

i just think it's obvious that rdj takes the piss quite often and so many people just go along with.
so when his next album is actually a picture book with graphical spectrograms of what the tracks sounded like are you all gonna buy and say it's wonderfull?
for me, listening to a grahical image has no musical value whasoever.

just do like me don't listen to it, and consider the ep finished after the two mixes
then one day you'll maybe sample it, mix it or anything and everything will be in it's right place...

But that SSTV thing is bull shit. While it is true that SSTV operates between about 1200Hz and 2300Hz it would have been impossible to get anythng from an MP3 file as the codec simply throws away any sound that it perceives as being inaudible to humans (for example if there is a sound a 1KHz and another one at 1.1KHz but the 1.1KHz sound is just 20db lower then it excludes that sound altogother.) So while MP3 is fine for human hearing it does not work for analogue data transmission and if it did work the picture wouldn't be as clear as the one he claimed to get.

"You sound like those people who laugh at IDM and listen to Justin Timberlake."
Answer: Yes, I laugh at the term IDM, elitist fucking crap., like its intelligent or something.....
and just face it, Justin got talent, yeah hes been in Nsync that just FOUL but he got talent (I respect him for that but its u cant forgive him for that nsync thang) he doesnt make fine art or something like that but he got talent.
So my answer is YES I laugh at IDM and NO I dont listen to JT.
uhm.. I hope the comment was directed at me hmmm fuck it :)

IF YOU PAY FOR AND ENJOY NOISE "MUSIC" YOU ARE A FUCKING PAWN/TOOLBOX. CONSIDER MYSELF TO BE THE AUTHORITY AND MAJORITY OPINION ON THIS MATTER.
AGAIN, YOU HAVE A I-NET GIRLFRIEND. EMBARASSING.
YOUR AVATAR ISN'T THE LEAST BIT THREATENING/CREEPY/KUBRICKIAN/ANYTHING ELSE YOU MAY HAVE BEEN ATTEMPTING.
why dont you work on losing your virginity and not questioning what I have to say about the need for disregard of all things as pretentious/lazy as an "art" known as noise, you impressionable simple-minded virgin fuck.
