I just read that in a interview. Why should he release another album when hes on top of the electronic game? He was on the top of his career when he released Come To Daddy and then Windowlicker. He also said when he released Richard D James album that he was only going to release 2 more records ever. I he never release a album again he will be remembered as the greatest electronic artist of all time and got nothing to loose, but if he release another album and people hates it he will not be the best. I dont think he ever will release somehing again...what yall think? |

Look at other artists who only dropped subpar average albums after the best shit, they arent legends anymore. He told a friend that he only released music to make a living (now he got enough money) and wouldnt release any more records. He will still make music though,he said music is his life and he will create music forever until he meets the grimreaper. |

Yeah i guess you´re right, cause Richard never lies in an interwiew..... pessimists...... I think you can only desperatly want some new aphex twin if you have all of his records, and all records from rephlex.... mind that if some of that rephlex shit said "aphex twin" people would say that it was brilliant (more than it is said now) i recomend: bogdan raczynski dmx krew cylob global goon yee-king do yourself a favor, check them out..... |

Yeah I can feel what you sayin Poe.. If he creates some tracks that is out of this world, then he will definitly release them, but if its just some electronic music that all this other wannabes, mp3.com etc artists has copied and not some other shit he will not release it. ´No disrespect to those artists on mp3.com (some of them are amazing, like Mr Projectile etc) but theres too many that just tries so hard to immitate the AFX sound and not being original. I think AFX wants to come with something new, and maybe he knows that theres to many that aint ready for it so he thinks I dont give a fuck... |

From everything Ive read, he's got hours and hours of unreleased stuff that he chose not to put on his albums. Right now they are starting to reissue some of the older stuff in the states where people are getting in to Aphex. Even if he just released some older stuff Id be happy, though I read an interview with him a little while ago where he mentioned some of the software he's creating and the already existing software he uses. I reckon his new stuff will be wicked and 2 or 3 steps ahead of everybody else, but I agree with you guys in that he releases stuff for a living and probably is just into DJing, I know if I could just do that and live in a bank, I damn sure would. |

Maybe RDJ will learn how to play Jazz and learn how to master the trumpet at jazz improv and he will be considered the best trumpet player ever who also made fucking amazing beats instead of harmonies. I think that would be cool:) |

I just wanted to say that your logic is wrong arch rival, if he doesn't release another album (which very well might happen) than he will not be known as the greatest electronic artist ever. He will for a while, but will eventually be surpassed by many many artists who may give him credit for pioneering this kind of intelligent electronica, but will still be making electronic music 10 times better. Not to insult the Twin but, doing something first soes not make you the best at it for very long, people will follow in your steps, change it, evolve it if you will until it is barely recognizable as what it began as. It will have become something new. P.S I am a huge fan of RDJ but I know that time eventually surpasses all and that Better artists will come out. |

I'm constanly trying to copy Autechre and then I come up with a song like the wob song. So that rule doesn't aply to me. I agree about aphex never releasing though. I reckon everything he makes now no one will like, he may release unreleased old stuff liek those Polygon Window trax. |

Richard is 29 years old, he's young! I hope he don't think to release nothing more. He has a mission on this earth, he must explore the infinite universe of the sounds, he must countinue the search new way of create impossible sound. He did it and I hope He'll do it. Richard surprise the world with a new amzing creation!!! ___\/\/___ |

I hope he will bless us again.... He loves music but not the industry, he has made enough money so he dont care about that (ofcourse he cares about money :) ) He has made like over 100 hours of music and he said if someone wanted some shit just mail him at Rephlex records and then maybe he would send some music??? sounds bizzare to me but AFX seems to be a strange guy... |

the fact that people go on about the fact that afx had hours and hours of unreleased stuff kind of pisses me off. i mean what artists here don't? (of course i realise that his stuff is loads better than mine......but thats not the point) |

there may be no more aphex twin albums. but he will continue to release afx material. and yes some of the tracks on drukqs have been stated to be over 7 years old by richard himself. i think drukqs is great anyways |

who said only 12"? i think he's gonna work at bringing afx to the same level as aphex twin reached. afx's stuff is less experimental sounding, so ill bet the new stuff will kick us all in the pipes |

he's lying about never releasing another album. he's smart enough to know what sells. the whole aphex mythology is based on him being a few years ahead of everyone, especially his admirers. |

check this site about future releses http://howisya.tripod.com/f2k.html there is a rumor about a new ep or album whith aphex twin |
||||||||
|
|

|

i think he soon has realesed his last elctronic album and leaves that behind and start making great piano tunes or mayby orchestral music |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Do ya think ?? I doubt he'll ever stop making electronica. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Maybe. He never wanna repeat himself and he has done almost evrything you can do with electronic music what is it 4-5 different styles and its mayby time for more advanced piano tunes.And in a interwiew made about 1997 in swedish radio he said he wanna do piano tunes composes in about 5 years |

u really cant know waht goes on in an artists mind, or if he still can kick ass, we´ve seen a lot of artists burn out. But take Zappa for example, he worked all over his entire life and released albums til he dropped dead, i cant say he was that innovative or developing, but when u take a look at richard... richard really wants to get new skills i think, djing is still developing and he always was into creating new machines for his unique sound. so chances arent bad for some future releases i think, some tracks on drukqs have been old he said...fine, shows he got the patience to show up with stuff when we are ready for it, he´s aware of his genre-forming power and i dont care if he puts some effort in his label first, rephlex rocks and i´m thankful for putting out those great artists, the 99 dmx release on rephlex was the best ever and d´arcangelo really kicks a lot of my favourite aphex styles (remembers me of a warmer ab somtimes), and dont forget other artists like squarepusher or cylob, this sound can be put forwrd by these and other artists which is enough fun for now... and when richard wants to take over the world again it´ll be the right time for another quadruple-drug, lets all wait and have a cup of acid/electrolyte/drukqs/whatever u like, cheers |

RDJ is generally full of shit. I wouldn't believe a fucking word that comes from his mouth. Read some old interviews from any period and he says he's going to do stuff and they never transpire or they are changed. Bearing in mind that the offshoot of rephlex has been set up with the two remixes being the first release, it is my guess that in 2003, SP and AFX will release on it. I read in an interview with him that MEN records isn't the name, but the catalogue number and it's intention was to release his and toms shit. But fuck knows, could all be a load of balls. I don't think that he is always purposefully lying, but just changes his mind an awful lot. No harm in that. But he will definitely release more stuff. He is still, IMO, at the top of his game, but he did get a general caning over drukQs, fans and industry critiques alike. I mean, it was probably the first time in his career that this has happened. Just look at the way he took offence to what Joyrex said! Touchy or what! There's no way he'll want his final release to be one that some people aren't that keen on. Again, in my opinion, i think drukqs will be a classic in 5 years, in most people's eyes, it's just such a monster that it will take that long for everyone to embrace it. We have not seen the end of rdj - he won't resist it. I reckon a few eps over the next three years and then one mother fucker of an album which will end music as we know it!!!!!!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
IMO, whatever he says, he just can't stop making shit. He's fuckin addicted to it. One might say - he'll produce but not release... But methinks, even if it goes on so for some time, once he'll 'occasionally' produce shit he'll want to share... ...although i'm not sure he gives a slightest fuck of his fans :s btw, what about other aliases? maybe not afx, but some polygon window, or pacman, or fuckman, or something?.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
He's said that the name Aphex Twin is dear to him - but i don't think anyone really cares about what he releases under - i think the name AT is contractually owned by r+s records or warp, but who cares, so long as he's banging out stuff! (i don't remember any "fuckman" releases? ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yep, btw that could be the reason of this 'retiree' - maybe some label rapes him for new records, and i bet he hates being raped =) hmmm... would you mind if he released as fuckman? I wouldn't =) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
imo, saying he's done everything he can with electronic music is like saying somebody has done everything they can with guitar, only more ridiculous. the equipment, the computer, just instruments. there is no limit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I personally can imagine him wanting to remain 'a legend' and not repeat himself. I respect that I think that makes a lot of sense. Anyway lets face he knows it, we know it, Aphex Twin is the greatest electronic musician of all time. I mean come on nobody can really touch him. This is how I see it. If he does something and feels its strong enough and different enough to release he'll do it. But if it sounds passe then he probably won't. That said I personally would be very happy to buy some of these thousands of old tracks if released. I'll never get bored of the old stuff like Polygon Window and new releases (of old tracks that is) like that providing it doesn't flood the scene would be very welcome. |

he really hasnt released any "new" music in a long time. keep in mind that drukqs is an amalgamation of almost 10 year old songs. |
