I have seen various places (interviews, web sites, on here a couple times a long time ago) say that Aphex Twin early live sets had fake gear. Does anyone have links to any sites with some pictures or information on this "fake" gear? Is this all bullshit? A long time ago I read some where that he also built a couple of custom synth's, but for all I know that is just another one of Richards pranks. I know some people on here have gone to his earlier sets when he used to play live..... can someone here tell us more about this? I imagine a ridiculously sized shell of a metal box with some huge knobs on it... haha Anyone here ever go to one of those earlier live sets? I think Richard gave people back then the ol Razzle Dazzle (ie: making his own synth's, my best guess he is talking about making synth patches of somekind, maybe with one of his modular systems or ) But who knows... he IS a musical geneius, but its hard to tell fact from fiction from a person like Richard D. James 4000th post! Yay! |

I know CJ Bolland made a fake modular for his tour back in the day. Stupid idiot. Like they can't afford a Serge Modular from hell. Or one of those newer Analog Solutions deals or even the Doepfer. BAH! |

I guess it would be kinda neat to conjure up some realistic looking fake gear... but I would make it ridiculously sized... with HUGE knobs and a box the size of a portopottie.. hey, maybe even a portopottie with a shell over it and huge knobs.. haha Id wager you something about this allegid fake gear Phobiazero, eh eh? |

Naaa, Tom said he used only hardware until his DYKS album, even on go plastic it was all hardware.... he said so himself in the phone interview. In previous interviews he said how he trys and recreates the tracks as best he can by himself, I am guess by that he means the knob twiddling and bass playing on a few tracks live. So I wouldnt be surpirzed to see a rack mount akia sampler, some eq moduales, compressors, exciters... rack mount dsp effects processors, and some fm synths or something, maybe a dat player (for back up or something.. or faking it.. hehe) in that rack. But you would think that only one box could fit all that stuff... maybe its a position issues, placing the effects boxes high on the rack for faster/easier access... *goes and listens to go plasic* |

All four boxes are identical, could he have just built his own shells. Ive never seen anything like 'em. Hmmm.. Maybe he did. I plan on shelling out 4 tech looking speakers and filling them with knobs, christamas lights, and a cd player. heh heh. |

Are you talking about the on watmm, those are pretty rad looking racks he has, or err.. the holding the racks. He has a midi controller there in front of him in that picture, with a dat player in there, and some patch cable thingy that I dont know what it is, and a Eventide Orville effects unit, and the black box below it looks like a cd player or soemthing.. haha. God I wish I had the dime for a Eventide Orville effects unit. Haha I love doing crap like that dolleater, I am trying to fit my Boss Dr. Groove inside a shell of a toaster that I have painted magenta with sparkles.. haha messing stuff up (and hopefully still having it work) is fun :) I havent seen that many pictures of afx playing live.... just seen a lot of picutres of him hiding behind a table or behind some decks |
