Richard was commissioned by Virgin Airlines to write a song for a television commercial, and he came up with the track "Aphex Airlines." According to him,
the song is supposed to represent a jet engine at takeoff. Not surprisingly,
the Virgin Airlines representatives didn't feel that the song would be very
appropriate, they thought it would more likely conjure images of airplane
crashes and death. Though it was never used by Virgin Airlines, it did make
an appearance on the compilation Ambient 4 Isolationism. I would probably search Soulseek.

as far as i know richard was comissioned with doing a trk for an airline and this is the music he mailed in. they didnt like it and it was not used. this isnt a fake as many believe.. richard says it was composed in a manor that reminded him of the sounds of a plane preparing for take-off..
i was going to link you to the discography, but it looks like that one of the three missing sound clips. give me a few minutes and ill upload it in the database.
