AphexTwin.nu Album
 

=|R3FL3X|= from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada on 2001-08-06 21:52 [#00020154]



Well, I meailed two higher up people ate REPHLEX and WARP
and asked them about the Aphex Twin.nu album idea, frankly -
they both talked to Richard D. James themselves in person
and he does not like the idea of anyone using his name for
it. So basicly, he does not want us to do this album. Now,
if this means we cannot host it on this site, or call it the
AphexTwin.nu album I dont know. I highy doubt we can use
that name on the album. So it may not happen at all folks.
Sorry, I do not want to cause any legal trouble with two
great record companies. They both spoke to Richard and like
I said, he does not like the idea of people using his name.
Discuss this further please. Iam awating more email from
these two people at WARP and REPHLEX. I want to see just
what is allowed and what isn't. Thanks.

Make the compilation without mention Aphex Twin then?!
Because, basically, the music has nothing to do with him,
right?

...

 

Phobiazero from Sweden on 2001-08-06 22:08 [#00020156]



Oh, Reflex, could you send me a copy of the e-mail messages
sent to the HQ:s and their answers...?


 

The Grey Gentleman from Eugene, Oregon on 2001-08-06 22:17 [#00020157]



As a "musician", I wouldn't want to be an album named after
another musician who had nothing to do with it, anyways.
Seems kind of subservient and lame to me.

I reckon most people's music is about themselves, and not
someone else. If it was an aphex twin remix album then
sure...but any other way seems kind of bad karma.

I can completely understand Richard's apparent viewpoint as
well. It'd be best to find another non-Aphex related name.

Keep in mind if you continue to go this route, you may also
catch shit from Aphex Ltd. as well. I believe they and
richard have an agreement right now, but certainly that
doesn't extend to this sort of thing.

Do your own thing,
Just my buck 50

this idea is as stupid as fuck

 

Phobiazero from Sweden on 2001-08-06 22:28 [#00020159]



I don't think this idea is "as stupid as fuck"... it's a
pretty good idea - but things need to be sorted out
properly.


 

Xanatos from NYC on 2001-08-06 22:43 [#00020163]



Lets do it anyway and get sued by WARP! It will be like the
battle of the little guy against the big evil corporation!
I'd love to sit in court with RDJ standing in the
prosecuting table glancing over and giving me evil looks
every few minutes.

And yes...you don't have to tell me that just because we get
sued by warp doesnt mean I'm going to court with RDJ..


 

hedtwin from manchester on 2001-08-06 23:49 [#00020173]



Weel, what u shud do is make a website for the album which
is a direct portal to this mssg board or something.

Is this made by users of this board? Is it everyone or just
a few peoepl cause i would be interestgin in putting forward
a track or two for it :)


 

Aron? from Canada on 2001-08-06 23:55 [#00020176]



Why don't we just come up with a different name for the
album, and not mention Aphex Twin at all?


 

Earface on 2001-08-07 00:15 [#00020179]



why don't we call it "Captain Pugwash Rips off the Taxman",
or "Ché Guevara's Bleeding Iris", or "Urban Pink vs. the
Lovers of Gibbon", or something else WE can come up with?


 

Dodecha from Norway on 2001-08-07 00:38 [#00020183]



hm, what about Rdj fans mix or something, or doesn't he like
that?


 

Springymajig from New Zealand (www.mp3.com/aureus) on 2001-08-07 05:13 [#00020220]



Hmmmm... I still haven't given you my song...

Anyway, it is a much better idea not mentioning anyone else.
How about something like TEFOSAV? Let's all try and come up
with a name. I think it should have to do with electronic
music since that's what is on the CD.


 

D-Hex from KC Missouri on 2001-08-07 06:21 [#00020222]



Why dont you name the album Phob's Bitches.

 

Aron? from Canada on 2001-08-07 06:30 [#00020224]



Yeah, something like Tefosav would be ideal! but we still
have to think of a GOOD name!


 

D-Hex from KC Missouri on 2001-08-07 08:05 [#00020227]



YOu should name it ' Mike P is a bitch and wont respond to
me ' - very catchy.


 

hedtwin from manchester on 2001-08-07 13:03 [#00020257]

I don't think i need to talk of my contribution. I'm pretty
sure everyone on this site would like to contribute.


 

RisK from Holland on 2001-08-07 20:45 [#00020322]



Can someone explain to me what this album is all about? Im
kinda new to this board so I dont know a thing about it. Is
it a compilation of some songs in the custom zone or
something?


 

evolume from seattle, washington, usa on 2001-08-07 22:02 [#00020328]



why does this album even have to be sold? all it has to be
is an interesting way for us all to hear eachother's music.
it could just be a site with a stack of mp3's by all of us
and you can listen to and download the ones you like and
burn your own c.d.s.
it should be about being heard not about cashing in; and,
well, if it leads to a bit of publicity, and money happens
to come from it in the future then so be it. but if you are
setting out to make music just to make money then you are no
better than the fatty behind the desk producing back street
boys or britany spears.


 

Aron? from Canada on 2001-08-07 22:06 [#00020329]



Good point

 

=|R3FL3X|= from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada on 2001-08-08 22:48 [#00020512]



Community Vibes Part 1 is what the name would be, its
Phobiazer0s idea for the name, and quite frankly its the
best sounding one that has nothing to do with Aphex Twin. I
got more email from the top guys. Here is some of what they
said:

•All I can say is that he's {Richard D. James} not into
your concept - he said "I'd rather it
didn't come out at all."

So, thats kind of a let down. To hear that. But I emailed
him back asking if I can its all right to just release it
totally diferenential to the Name Aphex Twin or anything.
Just ... whatever. Fuck. Its a let down to say the least.
More to come.


 

hedtwin from manchester on 2001-08-08 22:52 [#00020513]



jesus christ, Richard D James is such and asshole!!! I don't
care if he reads this, if he does YOU ARE A CUNT!!! HA HA!!

That name is wicked community vibes part 1 or whatever it
is. we shud get someone to do some multemedia content or
somethign, some visuals or whatever :)


 

Phobiazero from Sweden on 2001-08-08 22:55 [#00020514]



I've actually created a cover. I'll post it tomorrow if
you're interested.


 

=|R3FL3X|= from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada on 2001-08-08 22:56 [#00020515]



Phobaizer0: yes indeed. please post!

 

Phobiazero from Sweden on 2001-08-08 22:58 [#00020517]



It's very minimalistic - but why make flashy stuff? Let the
music speak...

As I can see it, this compilation has nothing to do with
Richard - and thereby it's pure legal. Are we gonna sell it
or what?


 

=|R3FL3X|= from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada on 2001-08-08 23:00 [#00020518]



Phobiazer0: Selling it huh? Possibly. But that raises a few
good questions, as Iam sure you agree. We must discuss this
further. Iam so goddamn busy right now. But lets talk about
this.


 

Phobiazero from Sweden on 2001-08-08 23:01 [#00020519]



Let's decide not to sell it then...

 

=|R3FL3X|= from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada on 2001-08-08 23:05 [#00020520]



okay fair enough. that totally cool with me, as iam sure its
cool with others. I think I will email you some specifics
right away here.


 

D-Hex from KC Missouri on 2001-08-08 23:52 [#00020527]



It should be Phob presents Notes of A Community,,,,now that
is grand.


 

=|R3FL3X|= from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada on 2001-08-08 23:59 [#00020531]



nah.. we decided the name already, but thanks!

HEY - I STILL NEED PEOPLES ENTRIES FOR THE ALBUM!!!!! THERE
ARE SONGS TO BE SENT STILL! HURRY UP ON THIS, PLEASE CONTACT
ME ABOUT GETTING YOUR SONG IN.


 

Aron? from Canada on 2001-08-09 00:03 [#00020533]



Community Vibes is a cool name!

R3FL3X: Did you get a chance to check out href="http://www.mp3.com/Aron_Zacharias">my mp3.com
page, I think I'd like to use my song "Invisible Limits"
on the compilation. You have to download it off of href="http://www.mp3.com/Aron_Zacharias">my mp3.com page
though, cause it's too big to email you.


 

=|R3FL3X|= from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada on 2001-08-09 01:51 [#00020561]



Aron?: I took your song, and its included. I will update
this section further tonight. Iam off to the clubs once
again! YES>


 

rob fragilenine from a warm place on 2001-08-09 03:58 [#00020572]



I will put my song contribution on my zebox site:
zebox.com/artists/plegz.html

ps. Are we going to send this compilation to Rephlex/other
labels?


 

Springymajig from New Zealand (www.mp3.com/aureus) on 2001-08-09 05:07 [#00020584]



Reflex: You've got ICQ don't you? I'm downloading it right
now.


 

D-Hex from KC Missouri on 2001-08-09 06:59 [#00020596]



Hey Recycle - Is there anyway i could mail you some stuff
instead of mp3?


 

djfony -mike b- from helemano, hawaii -djfony.8m.com- on 2001-08-09 08:11 [#00020599]



Hey reflex... grab digital angel of of my page at
http://ampcast.com/disfony and please please please use
"disfony" lower case just like that instead of djfony :)
thanks man..

i know it's only one track.....perhaps you'll like it.

 

geonime from geoworld on 2001-08-09 08:48 [#00020607]



Hey, I made a track which I think is good. Although you
probably won't accept it. What standard do the songs have to
be to get on the album?


 

geonime from geoworld on 2001-08-09 08:52 [#00020608]



I made it in Fruityloops and Cakewalk Pro Audio - it's like
a cheesy 80s dance tune, but then it changes to an ambient
thing. No, what am I thinking? It's too crap. Phobiazero,
should I e-mail you a low bitrate version so you can hear
it, and if you like, I can send a good quality version?
