yes!!
allz you have to do is buy the premium vinyl copy of DRUKQS and get a mixer and PLAY IT SLOWER (ie 33 instead of 45 on certain tracks) AND YOU CAN GET YOURSELF A BRAND NEW SET OF DRUKQS SONGS TO ENJOY!
JUST SAVE TO YOUR PC, AND BURN TO CD!
DRUKQS CD3 AND 4 COMING SOON
(heh)

I always use plugins from Winamp.com and toy around with the tempo/speed/pitch/whatever of my MP3s. Not just Drukqs!
Speeding up IDM is not recommended, though... I do that only to rock. Electronic beats are so complex, they sound ridiculous played back at 150% speed.

What plugins do you use to do that, and where can I find them?

I know this deserves a thread of its own buuuuut: Other than the larger artwork and occasionally better packaging, could some vinyl junky give me an honest explanation of its appeal? I mean, listening to vintage stuff that was originally on analog is one thing.. you know you want to hear it on analog and not a digital transfer.. but in the case of most modern electronic music, in this case 'Drukqs', it's primarily recorded digitally in the first place, right? So why the fetish for vinyl when it's digital music going onto a sonically inferior format with no improvement in quality? I can understand the appeal of the packaging, and maybe it's just the allure of the increased physicality that vinyl provides. But as far as sound goes, I just don't understand why people stay loyal to vinyl when CD is available. If I am mistaken about my facts here, I apologize in advance. I am obviously not an expert on this type of thing. thanks.

well, from what I understand, you can fit a whole lot more music on vinyl than you can on cd

true
it sounds much more "deeper" too.
and you can toy with it so much easier
hell, running the 45bmp songs @ 33 is just insane.
it's like a whole new songs.
all the beats start to really come alive

elusive that would be the only reason why I'd want Drukqs on vinyl as well. I am thinking about it coz I've got the untitled Squarepusher 12" and that sounds totally kewl at 33rpm as well as the Chaos AD Remixes.

More sound depth, with vinyl you hear what sound was actually performed rather then 0011101010011001 digital crap. The frequencies that CD won't cover are also the ones Aphex likes the most and even though you can't hear them they still affect your mind when you play the music. Bad side is dust but whatever. Vinyl is deep and real CD is digital.

"The frequencies that CD won't cover are also the ones Aphex likes the most and even though you can't hear them they still affect your mind when you play the music."
Surely you need really good ranged headphones like sennheiser HD-250i's and amazing quality decks to get those frequencies out?
