Ideas on how Aphex Twin makes his music?
 

JOhn Bolecek from Glen Allen, VA on 2001-06-08 16:34 [#00008764]



How do you think he makes his music? what software does he
use? if it's software he made by himself then what does the
software do? How does he create his drum samples? tell me
everything you can think of! and could some please send me
the "4" midi file, i can't seem to download it. Thank you

I've heard that he's a bit of a DIY expert and makes his own
synths/contraptions himself using a mish/mash of others.
Ingenious!
Apparently he also uses a Mac G4.....

he had alot of raloand drum machines and sytnths, and some
tunes were most likely made on cubase (like donkey
rhubarab).

the costum stuff is most liekyl old gear, just circuits
removed and wires replaced to maek enw sounds.

donkey rhubarb is much too old to have been made on cubase
or any other music program. richards homebuilt equipment was
made from scratch, but used the shells of other equipment.
he learned to do that from when he went to a polytechnical
school for a brief amount of time

Hmm, I heard something from Mike P (Mu-Ziq) back on Joyrex's
site, about how all that home-made stuff might have been
bullshit. Hard to tell with Rich's lying habit, heh...

I think he probably toyed with circuits and such and
probably did dismantle his synths but no to the extent that
people believe.Disecting the method sometimes takes away
from the listening enjoyment;)

to paul:

yeah, but sometimes it can add to it...
"wow this is so creative... I wonder what sort of unique
things he did to blah blah blah etc etc"

My pixels are teaming with joy! :D:D
