Amazing track... it's crazy shit like this that makes Drukqs
so great. I love when the melody kicks in, and the female
voice and everything... great track.

the last 15 seconds of it are really intense. it feels like
your head is going to explode.

I love the part where he seemlessly plays 8 different
drumloops, cutup, one after another in under 40 seconds. The
mixture of the perfect drumrolls and cymbal crashes,
reversed instruments, stopping drums and that is brilliant.
I wonder if the end was hand cutup or done using a plugin of
some sort? And does anyone know what software he uses for
arrangement?

"It is and I spent ages getting it right. I don¹t usually
spend so much time doing it but I did for this one. It¹s
like a journey, it¹s like a musical life diary. It¹s in
order of personal events as well. One track in the middle
for example is "Mt Saint Michel + Saint Michaels mount" and
that¹s my summer holiday track. It did that track on a
laptop in France while travelling around. Other tracks I¹ve
done in Wales or in a car and stuff like that. A lot of
people are doing this these days and I really like this.
With a laptop music is becoming more like folk music again.
You can do it so quickly and you don¹t have to rely on the
studio any longer, which is not a very realistic selection
of your life."

That Monkey Drummer rip was a DIVX .AVI not Quicktime so
you'll need to download the DIVX drivers from somewhere...

Do a google on DIVX and that should sort you out...

i couple of you have mentioned it, but has anyone ever felt
such a strong audio strobe as the last bit of this track?..
quality headphones and a puff put me away on this one. it's
intense.

This is a good track - the final part (with the vocal)
reminds me of something off Plastikman's Musik album.

Shit, just went and posted three things cos I didnt think it
was working. And Bob, I didn't understand it at first, no,
but now i do and I love the genre. But wasn't it you who
said you weren't going to buy anything else by Aphex in the
future?

Hey Steve! Check out the english version of an afx interview
with the german Groove mag here.

there you'll find that aphex lost his mp3 player with 282
unreleased songs on it. the idea of getting this mp3 player
drives me crazy ....
