I there somebody who have ever seen this extreme rare record on Rephlex which came out around 92? I thing there are definitely less than 100 copes in existance. Has somebody it on CDR? Its my most wanted item.

Whoooooops! It doesn't exist, how it's possible? I'm looking for a non-existance release? Why is it listed in a every afx-discography? About "The philosophy of sound and machine", i have that beautifull gemm. GREAT, GREAT, GREAT!

It's the old Aphex/Rephlex bullshit factor...
There must be more disinfo about AFX than anyone else...I think thats the way he likes it...

It does exist, I have known people who have owned it, and certain individuals who are beyond repute who have the tracks on DAT.
The Q-Chastic that appears on the ART2 CD is different from the one that appears on CAT002.

Is it really?! Do you know how much copies there are in existance? This is without doubt one of the most mysterious afx releases. I will give a good price for a CDR.

It just seems so unlikely...there has never been any MP3s ripped, no 2nd copies etc....
I'm still doubtful...

I haven't seen the release on ebay the past 2 years. When an item doesn't appear on ebay for a year, there is a big chance it doesn't exist.

Last year the owner of the record store i shop at here in chicago, pulled me to the side one day when i came in.
He had a minidisc(a real minidisk not a mini cd) of these real kind of raunchy caustic window/ab songs on it. one of which was the song from the "philosophy" compilation.
Thing is, a few days prior to that, he and i were having a disscussion about the actually existance of the Q-Chastic material. he insisted that there was no way anyone would hear any of the tracks, unless of course youre RDJ himself or a friend of his.
He swore up and down he had them, he even wanted to bet money.
then he actually brought it in. i didnt really like it all that much. it kinda reminds me of GAK for some reason.
but now, just for the hell of it, i think i'll make him copy it for me.
Needless to say, it exists, and yes , SOME people do have it.
whew...

It does exist, but only friends and people who worked with the company got a copy. 200 copies were made. There were only the 4 songs, and there is only the 1 song available is usually crappy quality. It was on a compilation.

Jand: I've never seen it, but I've had discussions with both Richard and Grant about it, and it DOES exist. Richard doesn't even have a vinyl copy anymore, his only copy is on DAT.
The tracks are a bit GAK-like (from the descriptions Grant gave me) and like I said the version of the song 'Q-Chastic' that appears on CAT002 is different from the one that appears on the ART2 CD.
Just because it doesn't pop up on Ebay doesn't mean it doesn't exist - look at all the old BoC - the reason you don't see all those pre-hi-scores releases on the file-sharing services and Ebay is because BoC were a bit choosier about who they gave copies to, versus a test pressing like AB5 which gets passed around by a lot of people. Q-Chastic is in the same botat as the early BoC, only a few people have even heard it, let alone owned the actual vinyl. After all, it was a test pressing, and the number are far lower than 100.

Yes jand, the tracks you mentioned on MP3-file are these on the ART/rephlex complition. MP-files of the Q-chastic-EP doesn't exist on the net so far.

Well i got my CD-r from the guy today. he made me pay ten bucks for it just because i didnt belive him. ass!
i listened to it twice. and as i said before, and Joyrex mentioned its GAK-like. i really cant get into it. i think i even like GAK better.
I dont know exactly how i'm going to do this, but i have a 56k connection, so doing it at my house is a definete NO.
However, my fiance's brother has a cable modem, and i think he uses "winmx"?
I will ripped them off the cd and put them on his computer. In which i will tell you all when i do, because if not many people have these, i dont want people downloading ALL day from his computer.
Now. The quality of the songs is VERY good. the only 'noise' you hear is the record "pop".
So i'll want to rip them at a high bit rate. i just dont know how.
the one time i have done this before is for my HAB1&2 records. i dont think i could get more than like 192. anyone know how to do 320?

One of the first things you HAVE!!! to do is make samples... around one minute and give them to phob!!! not great quality so no big space so everybody can hear of them before you finish the others and they spread on the net.
If it is really Q-Chastic i'm going to spin on my head for a while...

If (big if...) these are real, then I should imagine they'll spread like wildfire anyway...
Will keep an eye on Soulseek and see what appears....
Then again, how the fuck will we know they are not fake anyway?...

I think that if we can say it's like gak, or any of the rdj sounds of that time, then it's a good imitation or the real one

keep in mind the origins of this mini-disc are still unexplained and questionable at best. anyway, if it's real, it may just not have made its way online, like that supposed remix of craig david.

i put them on my buddies cpu yesterday. he made them all 320 bit rate. they sound fucking awesome. just as good as on my cd.
How do i know they are AFX for sure? I dont. but you can kinda tell RDJ apart from a fluke. his stuff can sound completely different , but one thing remains the same. its got his style.
Besides, the guy i got it from owns a CHAIN of stores. here and in the UK, i think too.
Now i just have to see when my friend wants to open up and let you guys download.
But please guys, be civil. hes on got a cable modem, so try not to bog the thing down all crazy.
either way, i'm only gonna be doing it for 2 days, tops. from there, you guys will have to share amongst yourselves.

where did he get the mini from? HE told me he owns a copy of the record. thats what we got into an arguemnt in the first place about.
I didnt belive him, only because i didnt think they actually existed.
Other than that, for rare records, he's got em all. he's got Twoism too. and he says his crown jewel is a frank sinatra record, he says its worth about 10 thousand.
some people collect cards, some people collect obscure records worth a fortune.
takes all kinds.

Only 2 exist... and they are just 1 song really, one is a few seconds shorter than the other. It was used on a compilation. You cant get the other ones. they dont exist.

If you read the rest of this thread you'll notice someone claiming they're are going to upload all 4, and so I was wondering if that is going to happen...
