Holy crap, there's some range. Some of my favorite Aphex Tracks at the moment. I don't really know if The Tuss is Richard or not, but there are too many signs pointing to "YES, RICHARD IS THE TUSS" to not say there isn't a possibility, no?

The Richard D. James album is what made me get into electricronic music, such a wide range of sound, it just shows the endless possibilities.

My favorite tracks off the album:







ughhh listening through Youtube and laptop speakers is complete ****!!!

aphex twin is surely one artist you never forget! my first purchase.. :D

There are some things that are best left misunderstood :eek: I think his best album is Selected Ambient Works 85–92

Listening to Drukqs almost every day at work, tremendous stuff.

Okay something interesting has been floating around recently. This could very well be a hoax, but it is certainly very strange and it seems like a lot of effort was put into this:

kroniktronikboy - Aphex Twin - Unreleased Ambient Works 1985-2012 | Mixcloud - Re-think radio

It sounds like him but not quite, and everything on Google seems to trace back to this Kroniktronikboy guy. Anybody else know anything about this?

All I can add to that is Chronic Tronic is an Amon Tobin track on the Out From Out Where album. It sounds legit enough from skipping through the track. On one hand I wouldn't be surprised if this is legit and just extra material that's been laying around for years. On the other it's possible he's just pulling an elaborate lark.

On further listen I'm wondering if this isn't a remix of sorts. Check the track around 49-50 minutes. That most definitely sounds like a twist on Domino from the SAW2 discs.

i think 'Drukqs' is the most unique and brilliant, the split personality between the drill'n'bass tracks and the prepared piano pieces is amazing. but i'm sure i listen to 'i care because you do' more often.

An alleged test pressing of Aphex Twin’s unreleased Caustic Window album is on Discogs for $13,500 – FACT Magazine: Music News, New Music.

I remember seeing this pop in my wanted list on discogs. I nearly shat myself, but I'm not involved in the WATMM community because I suck at keeping a consistent online presence. I liked Caustic Window, but not nearly as much as his AFX handle. As far as output goes, the quality of each pseudonym for me is AFX > Aphex Twin > The Tuss > Caustic Window > Polygon Window > Power Pill.

Whoops! I didn't see that there was already an Aphex Twin thread. Here's a thread a typed up about him: http://www.musicbanter.com/electroni...ve-genius.html

UPDATE: There is now a kickstarter for buying the record, and the actual rights to a one time distribution deal. It's gone well over the goal, but if you want to get your hands on a FLAC copy of this shizz as soon as it's given a high quality rip, get on that shit.
