Posted by grinningcat at : some of u guys really suprise me with ur reactions.... esp joyrex! saying stuff like 'at least track 1 has a beat' is really backward comment to make, something that i wud expect from a 3 year old. I dont mean to slag any of u off, i just find your reactions to Smojphace really, really surprising !!! the 2 noise tracks i think r gud, maybe u r looking at them too hard or whatever, but its classic aphex twin i reckon: fucking sound up, making it sound wicked. Its just an extension of the stuff he's done before. And all this talk about them being spewed out from a c64 machine is bullshit, how can u not appretiate the detail in those tracks, the way the sounds keep going inverse and all that, how they develop etc. Its a mindfuck, like for instance 'go plastic'. i really dont see whats so hard to understand about that... it sounds great loud too... suddenly it seems all of u have closed ur minds and r saying stupid things. and the whole thing about Aphex ripping off his fans; i think he'd find that deeply offensive if u said that to him, quite rightly too. He's releasing his music which has taken him ages to make for u fans and ur all slagging him off, to the extent that u think he's robbing u off ur money. what the fuck! if u dont like it dont buy it, but dont start all this bullshit about 'its so dissapointing, i feel robbed, he's up to his old tricks' lol . I think deep he is very serious about his music, and respects the fact his fans have given him the opportuniy to make music full-time, and wud never try and rip u off, instead Just supply more mind bending musical experiments, which is what he does best and what we want, no?! |

Yes you are ;P I need to listen to the tracks some more before I pass final judgement. |

I think people in general are very over analytical about things. In this case obviously music is the topic. Look at the plathoria of smojphace threads and discussion. About this and about that. I have read a number of posts where people claim that RDJ is ripping them off or making shit tracks on purpose or whatnot (you get the picture). I found this post refreshing, specifically because of the quote: "and the whole thing about Aphex ripping off his fans; i think he'd find that deeply offensive if u said that to him, quite rightly too. He's releasing his music which has taken him ages to make for u fans and ur all slagging him off, to the extent that u think he's robbing u off ur money. what the fuck! " |

yeah .. but im free to like whatever i want right? |

ok. But in this case "liking it" or "not liking it" is not the case. You like it good. You hate it good. But it's this whole slandering "RDJ made pure shit to make you dumbfucks look silly" thing that gets me. That was the point of me posting this. I may not personally like it, but that is completely irrelivant. |

I just hate how people have all these expectations and act like the artists owe them soemthing. They're just making art and people get too judgemental over it... they're such bitches. |

thats the best part of being famous. you can release whatever you like, and if its abnormal everyone is gonna flip out about it |

Any criticism over it is entirely justified. Personelly i dont think its a joke..but it is shit. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
the thing is... I like it a lot more everytime I listen to it and the transition from track 1 to ktpa1 is great |

"and the whole thing about Aphex ripping off his fans; i think he'd find that deeply offensive if u said that to him, quite rightly too. He's releasing his music which has taken him ages to make for u fans and ur all slagging him off, to the extent that u think he's robbing u off ur money." i hate that part. i'm sure he doesn't care if people dont like it. its not like he is toiling day in day out just for the fans. he makes music for himself. i think the title "26 mixes for cash" says it all. i'm not saying i hate smojphace, i'm saying i hate that statement. it goes against everything RDJ himself says. |

those noise tracks are actually part of a secret encoded brainwash-message telling you to kill your parents and then to continually do the "rdj dance" on their graves |
