I never heard Phlaps until RIGHT NOW, I always thought the
other track apart from Cunt was that Phlid track that's on
the Select tape. I was wrong.

Ohh, new Aphex (Caustic Window) for me. I like it. I bet
this album is the best album in the world, and it'll never
be heard. Outrageous.

I've got my Chosen Lords poster but no CD.

Outrageous.

But it has never been issued, do you want me to pay big
bucks for that first? As a favour and stuff? Then you can
pay for a reissue.

CAT023-The Lost Caustic Window Album.

By Bowgie (Mike P.) and Joyrex

This was an email that was sent to me (Joyrex) about the
rumored "CAT023" a white label Caustic Window album that
Rich has had done for about 3 years now. What follows is
Bowgie's description of the album, as he is one of four (4)
people who have the album. It is rumored that Bowgie is
actually Mu-ziq (aka Mike Paradinas). This has not been
confirmed.

A full tracklisting is impossible since it's a white label.
There are no titles:Untitled.

It has hand written labels by RDJ: SIDE 1) in black marker
pen: "CAUSTIC WINDOW LP 33 1/3 SIDE A REPHLEX" in the run
out groove: "CAT 023-A1 A PORKY PRIME CUT"

There are two tracks on side A, the first is a subtle
melodic grower, with hi q's; pianoish DX sounds & woodwind
type synths.nice but not very immediate. Track 2 is *much*
more like it: Industrial type drums straight out of J5 and
the catchiest afx acid line (not 303). Builds and builds
with pad sounds & percessive held chords in a spooky
fashion.

SIDE 2) Same hand written info except it says: "SIDE B" in
black marker pen and in the run out groove it's the same but
says side "L"

5 Tracks on B:

Track 1) called "muttley" by Richard.It features samples
from "dastardly & Muttley"(Wacky Races Cartoon) starting off
with Dastardly shouting "Muttley!" then Muttley the dog
going "RashingFrashingWrarraFrarraWrash". Other samples: A
girl speaking: "You know I don't even know why you bother
talking" and the track ends with "what an utterly
fantastical journey" (unknown sample) As regards to the
music, it starts with a monophonic synth line doing a
percussive riff up 4 notes, joined by another sound a few
bars later. Then the drums kick in. Bass and snare from
Phloam, sort of metallic guiro and clangs from Schottkey.
Halfway through an orchestral string cho

rds sample comes in, and the girl speaking sample appears.
It's a great track, very SAW85-92 in period.

Track 2) Happy,jolly little track with high pitched
bell-like hihats acid sounds and long square wave bass note.
Random dat glitches spice up the percussion. The melody
comes from the interplay of tuned bass drum & tuned metal
hihats.

Track3) Wow!This is a treat for fans of SOSW. Starts with
Roland R8 hihats,then a marimba melody & the BD Kikkz in
with an acidicish line.marimba fades in again. Then a BB1 DX
pad in 5ths (lots of reverb) makes it fuckin lush. Drum
break then the track restarts with stabs from Audax powder,
then acid & marimba. Track ends wth drums.
Track 4) My favourite: Noisey drum loops (Tuned white
noise?) acid pokes. Bass drum from Hedphelym or the B-sides
to ABB2. Also odd bell like High melodies & metallic sampled
melodies! very odd track.

Track 5) Tribal bongos, Quoth Bd kik &
"a,aphex-a,aphex"samples. About 1 min. long.

SIDE 3) Handwritten on label: "CW LP side C" and in the run
out groove it says; "THIRD REICH VETERANS WILL NOT JOIN
VICTORY WAR PARADE. CAT 023 -01" 4 tracks

Track 1) Very simple synth melody & 4/4 kik drum / snare
joined later by emotional sounding soft detuned string
notes. Hihats and hi Q's join later and lo-bandwidth
metallic samples.

Track 2) A very early track.One of the 1st he did. Childish
squeaky acid line. Crap piano riff. Redeemed by lush strings
& reverb on certain drum sounds,which might have indicated
Here was a future talent.

Track 3) Square wave bassline, melodic held acid line, R8
drums. Simple lovely very Aphex.

Track 4) Jazz fusion aphex! Drum sounds similar to Gak.
Sounds like Gak in fact except for a low farting bass and
muted jazzy piano riff & overlaid solos.

SIDE 4) "CAUSTIC WINDOW LP . side D" handwritten in black on
label in runout groove:"CAT 023 - G1 A PORKY PRIME CUT " 5
tracks

Track 1) An ambient track. This was a reject from SAW85-92
and is unspeakably lovely. A monophonic synth weaves around
soft fl

ft flutes to devastating effect. The synth filter opens &
closes to emphasise the riff at certain times, & the flute
goes freestyle towards the end. Metallic percussion invades
the song at times complementing the groovy momentum gathered
by the main riff.

Track 2) This is Phlaps off the criminal justice bill comp.

Track 3) This is Cunt off TEX 3

Track 4) This is a phone call between Mixmaster Morris &
Scanner. Richard got 2 phones, rang them both (one to
Morris, one to Scanner) and luckily they both answered
simultaneously. What follows is very funny. Both Morris &
Robin think each other has initiated the call and confusion
reigns. This increases as a third voice enters the fray
(RDJ). Eventually they recognise him as Richard: "If you put
the phone down your gonna die.."

Track 5) Same trick between Chris Jeffs & Mike Paradinas
.This time Cylob figures it out straight away but the
funniest bit is where he says "I think Richard wants us to
talk to each other", to which Mike replies "Oh great..."
track (& album) ends.

You can post this info on the joyrex site (is that you?) or
wherever. I promised Richard not to let anyone have copies.
I stick to that.

Originally sent to joyrex.com on 9.14.99.

You are Mike P and you will renege on your promise to young
Richard (who was probably out of his mind on drugs when you
made you agree to such a ridiculous thing) and you will make
this album available to the unworthy shits that constitute
RDJs fanbase.

aphex twin is the best musician ever but at the same time a
goddamnid motherfocker because he dousnt release all the
fucking music he probably just has to make one call to
release it or just put it on the internet if you dont mind
people downloading your tracks
as you say you do

its just really anti cultural and a disgrace for musical
history
for not releasing it

that IS why it isnt released. just like ab5 and melodies
from mars. it's called 'quality control', and quite clearly
a lot of people on here have no idea wht this means.

I can understand why one would not release a work, or even a
volume of his own material. It's not about simply having a
catalog of one's work available for the world to see.
Musicians tend to set themselves to a certain standard for
any works which they release to the public.

i think you can hear most of it in this afx rephlex live set
from 1997 LAZY_TITLE if you listen and read them
comments from mike p you can tell that pretty much the whole
set is this album, i think.

The original release is limited to 4 copies.

The live show was never released on any format other than
unofficial MP3.

Would anyone care to help me out here?
