Derek said What about Moodymann

I say, well yeah, same thing. (as aphex)

Ignore me Derek. I was talking utter rubbish yesterday (like its different
any other day).

I've even bought those aphex twin things, I think they're alright too, just
never understood why everyone thinks he's the don!
just a subjective thing though innit.

Err, and thats all. More highly enlightening comments later.

Thanks

So, who got these ANAL_LORD records?

I've never been a massive Aphex twin fan, like a few bits and
bobs etc.

But, has anyone noticed these new series just seem to be jacking one
persons style (not brilliantly either), then doing another
persons style on
another volume.
What sort of way to carry on is that?

He's not even done it that well either.

load of flippin' tosh if you ask me.

(I bought number 2 mind, and that number 1 is growing on me, just
felt like
slagging him off because I'm bored). they ain't that good either.

i totally havent even listened to em. f*ck an aphex twin. except
for SAW2 and surfing on sinewaves. and those were like 10+ years
ago. you cant just get that back.

I agree to an extent. but you're also talking rubbish too.

Of course he's not going to get ten years back, but that hardly means he's
finished does it? just different. But, these anal lords aren't all that if

impression that everything he did or said was meant to be taken with a pinch

Okay, so call it out then. Who's style is he jacking specifically? (I really do 
wanna know cause I got my own suspicions and want to see if I'm right) And if 
he's doing things that sound like he did them 10 years ago, wouldn't it be more 
of a return to form? And since the whole acid revival thing has been going on, 
I think this is some of the best, deepest acid house with more interesting 
lines than any of the other crap preset (randomize) 303 shxte that's been 
coming out lately. Mind you, I havent bought an afx rec in around 10 years and 
I didn't like anal#1. got number 2 though, and in my opinion the larry heard 
bite track is wy too short and very well done. You want unimaginative 
ripoffs see eddie richards take on the same track from a year or two back 
itleefuoynac. Now that was a crap ripoff. I don't know though. RDJ's always 
been about surrounding himself with hype and doing things tongue in cheek so he 
can laugh at the idiots who fell for it later. And don't I re!
 member someone saying that a few of these tracks were actually done like 8-9 
years ago? I could've swornwell. Whatever. It's loads better than most of 
the let's bring acid back crap out now that does a much more obvious job of 
ripping off greats cough krax cough. Word.

By the way, I was smiling when I wrote this. Now I'm laughing.

Yeh but that's my point. I can respect a tribute. If it's well done. I 
personally think no music is made in a bubble, and that if we all approached 
our creative expressions as a tribute to our inspirations then maybe the bar 
might be a little higher and there wouldn't be so much crap about. That's what 
differentiates ugly edits/moxie style stuff from the mashup mania stuff to me. 
Ones done outta greed and the others done outta respect. (Mind, RDJ, theo, et 
al. still might come out and say they were just doing it for the cash :) I mean 
most uk techno I like sounds like something from detroit circa 95-99. but it's 
well done and interesting and I'm a sucher for interesting, well done stuff of 
any style. Take rick wade, I feel like I own every record he's put out (and 
only got like four). But that doesn't take away the fact that every one of them 
is well done, so I see why people continue to buy 'em. I kinda think it's cool 
to see interpretations of someone's style through anoth!
 er filter. Dunno how I'd feel if it was my stuff though. And yeah, those are 
the two I was guessing too (larry and drex).  OH! Look! A ferret! Hahahahaha!
