Anyone noticed how much AFX is being used as background on british TV nowadays?....Bothe Ch4 & the BBC....
My other half is getting sick n tired of me going "APHEX!!" everytime one crops up (the other night there were 5 diff examples...)...

pity...it's quite a thrill, if you're a sad AFX phan like me, to suddendly hear some Rich where least expected...
And did you see the MERC ads with Windowlicker?...Utterly bewitching stuff both visually & sonically...I'm on a promise to get a DVD of all of those, so fingers crossed....

i thought the merc ad which used windowlicker was poorly executed.
pity to waste such a great song. thought the way they cut up the track & re-edited it spoiled the rhythm of the ad.
didnt think the visuals married with the track very well. but thats just me..

Yes - very shrewd to say "Yes" to some suited fucks offering money to help hawk their product... what an unusual way to rape yourself.

err.. yes(?) i hardly see it as raping yourself. its just making money out of people who are all fashion and no taste..
according to the stories that go round about ads he made music for, he collected the cheque & then produced something totally unusable..
not exactly a rapee (is that a word?)

They played almost every track of Geogaddi on a PBS documentary on dealing with terrorist bombings.
Other than that, I've heard Radiohead played during the credits of the Sopranos

Yeah, I always get exited when aphex is on the telly, bit sad really, but hey. Its nice to see that tv sound people are able to play good music, not some of the crap they are forced to play.
I think TV is great for music, a number of programmes have excellent incidental music and/or themes, which would be great releases too, but are often unavailable. I tried to get the music off of Castle which was on Channel 4 about 6months ago, and hit a brick wall, got a letter back saying, no.
So with good music like aphex, people can contact the stations and instead of saying it was a private commision and not giving out any info at all, they can say, oh thats aphex twin, off the album drukqs. much better!
Top Gear is a good programme for music too, ive heard boc and ae something off draft if I recall. I'm not really into cars, and don't love driving, but I watch it for the great music and the interesting camera work.

Hopefully RDJ gets some cash for this. I agree with jand. The merc add+windowlicker doesn't really work for me.
