aphex twin interview moscow 1994 part 2

[@addy121]

This is fucking torture. But it's the perfect Aphex interview

[@funincluded]

Why are you wearing long hair when other people wear shorter hair? Journalism.

[@Poppycockify]

"Do you find it useful?" lol.

[@JS-ms9ge]

"plus i cant be fucked to get a haircut"

[@TelecastPropellor96]

funincluded No wonder he doesn't do interviews often

[@judithrobson826]

He handled it better than I would've lol

[@milos_slav_sky]

welcome to Russia, say thank for not beating him because long hair)

[@maxwolfeee]

He looks so uncomfortable and I don't blame him.

[@ADIoPrucnal]

The interview got so deep, that camera stopped recording.

[@moustachedgink]

Ричард: Я бы хотел отдохнуть Переводчик: Какую реальность вы предпочитаете?

[@sawatari]

its like meeting god and ask hime about his hear cut

[@michaelgranaldi8109]

But they didnt know then that Richard was God

[@brownswarm]

@@michaelgranaldi8109 yeah it's more like meeting god while being athiest

[@PlaysWithChildren]

Excuse me, Mr. Christ, what is the purpose for your hair being so long? Will you ever get a hair cut?

[@davycsbritain1279]

there's so much sexual tension in this video haha

[@pyruvicac.id_]

Davy Cs Britain hahahahaha

[@dsmyify]

Hahaha classic!

[@onion6667]

i swear the guy moaned at the start

[@fd8540]

AHAHAHSCCIAXAUHCSJ

[@macandcheeeeese]

HELP WHAT

[@PatchCornAdams723]

The worst and best interview I've ever seen.

[@compilingshaders9698]

русские могут, жать что стенка на фоне не из красных кирпичей была

[@RustyDruff]

It gets even better with subtitles turned on

[@morgunovbooch]

Это больше похоже на допрос когда Ричарда с весом приняли.

[@asgard.trance]

😆

[@jessupjones2783]

the interviewer sounds like he's dying!

[@shayneoneill1506]

92, probably struggling a bit with english. Only a few years after the wall had fell, so I assume most people's english was still fairly rudimentary.

[@evanjones2974]

where is part 3? this was starting to get decent

[@terrypussypower]

Ha! This is the exactly what he was like back then. Richard stayed at my house when we'd booked him to play our club back in '93. He played on my decks for a few hours before we headed down to the venue. He was a very quiet dude, no big ego or nothing. His set up on the night was like a mad scientists! All wires coming out of various bits of gear and into others, as if he'd circuit bent them all! What was great was his mum and dad came to the gig, as they were holidaying in Scotland at the time and were passing through Glasgow so they came up to the venue to see their lad for the first ever time playing in a club!! They loved it! His dad called me early the next day but I was crashed out, and missed his call. But he left a message on my Answerphone thanking us for looking after them! I still have that tape!

[@rthe0]

please upload

[@lorenzomazzocchi]

@@rthe0 thanks for sharing this man

[@silvastomp]

Upload the tape! Cool story hah

[@meeoo7856]

pfft, lier

[@terrypussypower]

@@silvastomp I was considering uploading it until I read that his dad had passed away, and thought it would be very disrespectful. I may just send it to Richard and he can do with it as he pleases.

[@e1anator]

Nah he's not pissed. He's really nice and pleasant when he's answers the mans questions. You can see he's just being patient with them because they are translating. I've heard that he's the nicest guy ever in person. However, watch his facial expressions when the interviewer asks him about his haircut.

[@TheDarkYoshi64]

Richard’s reaction when the interviewer says “Pills reality” and “drug reality” lol

[@sublimit777]

best interview ever

[@Cnd2Mn]

Самое странное интервью на всем ютьюбе

[@denisvertinsky7628]

Is his hands are tied? Damn, this footage looks like snuff movie and shit. And I like it.

[@yana.dinamika]

настроение отлучиться от реальности

[@RockBottomRiser21]

"It was bad but... it was funny looking back at it." I bet he feels the same way about this interview.

[@khapa85]

so awkward. i feel shame for those russian interviewers. they didn't really know what to ask and they didn't know whom they were interviewing.

[@ezgimosnow]

Wtf with the question about his hair...

[@macaronigrinder]

Aphex in USSR-reality

[@Dudemates]

There must be a third part,the last question, 'do you prefer your reality or a drug reality'!

[@AnnichenSkaren]

This is the single most painful, and at the same time totally AphexTwin surreal, interview of all time. Who thinks about these things ? Who cares ? But thanks for the laugh. Damn !

[@michalgorecki8845]

PILL REALITY

[@Pseudosilhouette]

DRUG REALITY

[@IepsyI]

sounds like he timestretched the interviewer's voice.

[@empirix]

lol the expression on his face when asked about drug reality!

[@thefoggydewy]

this is so awkward to even watch but its so good

[@Pseudosilhouette]

3:01 "Не платит вниманием..."

[@ZotZotZot]

Бедный Ричард, ахаха я ржал .

[@Krist_iana]

Это так ужасно, не могу слушать их тупые вопросы на ломаном английском (((

[@joshuatxuk]

I like how suddenly both guys speak english when asking about the hair. It's like thats the only question they're really concerned about. I love how Russians form questions like commands..."are you paying attention to English folk music."

[@humaninterface7153]

lol

[@bwoon4727]

they make me play so they can have holiday

[@Cognessence]

This is absolutely hilarious. A brilliantly bizarre interview - and he handled it rather well, I thought.

[@killiotta1]

This gave me a new meaning in life. I'm going to learn russian and move there so that people can actually understand what everyone is saying in interviews. They HONESTLY couldn't find one person in that huge ass city that could actually translate english a little better?

[@meeoo7856]

You know, a good translator cost money

[@Brom24]

I love he dumbs his answers down for the last question. "I play so my friends can go on holiday" LOL

[@catacombkid1]

this is why you cant find other interviews with him

[@odiletredici6539]

Perfect for a Dostoevskij novel

[@iainrobb2076]

The look of complete bemusement that crosses his face from 4:39 onwards is hilarious.

[@FelizJesusbirth]

Where's part 3? I want to know if he prefers this reality or the alternate pill reality!

[@Garcian]

great interview. very surreal and candid.... i wish all interviews were like this as you can get a real sense of the person being interviewed.

[@RosaFloem]

he deserves a better interview

[@RetroPlus]

This is more like a kidnapper's interrogation video or something, such an unsettling vibe here

[@yuragerich]

Later he was tortured in KGB :)

[@IcarusV]

i think the interviewer is Borat. on heroin.

[@moromali_minimal]

ахахаха его буквально попросили пояснить почему волосы длинные

[@Amiran902]

это допрос в подвалах лубянки, дальше его начали пытать

[@GuyFromNet]

Это так неловко . . . .

[@Krist_iana]

Позорище(((

[@StanPomeray]

I love the way that Richard D James makes really amazing weird music, LOOKS (on his album covers) really quite disturbing and scary, but when he talks he sounds like some bloke who serves you in Tescos LOL

[@zip_cs]

Не платит вниманием.

[@vrilmaxxed]

Lmao I can’t stop laughing, Richard’s face😂😂🤣

[@ninjagraphics1]

Any chance of uploading the rest of the interview?

[@knotlock]

This must be the interview where he’s purposefully awkward because he’s adapting to the interviewer. Genius!

[@jeitoots]

That haircut question still cracks me up!

[@willscomix]

The other people doing the DJing wearing the shirt hair...

[@annethoroughbass8499]

I can't stop replaying from 4:30 to the end.

[@Musiccalculater]

what reality to u prefer?? hahaha. i really want to hear his answer to that. anyone know if theres a part 3 floatin around?

[@andygray119]

HAH, pretty funny interview. How AFX reacted to poor english and rubbish questions. The end is the best part. "drug reality"...after he just turns to him like he's heard the most insulting statement towards his mother.

[@palmsout]

so does RDJ prefer his own reality or some kind of pills reality? we'll never know

[@katarzynakowalczukowska7754]

he said "no tranquility and no acid" and continued by saying that neither his life nor his music are affected by drugs, because he is not an user, and he thinks drugs are very bad. Btw.. these guys should work on their questions, I would be pissed off.

[@katarzynakowalczukowska7754]

Ha, and why back then it was good, huh? Because bunch of teenagers, who didn't even live back then say so? I heard no single *intelligent* person who actually saw MTV back then say it was "good". And this video definitively doesn't show it was good anyway. Aphex Twin was getting very popular back then, this is why they decided to talk to him, still they send complete beginner to interview him, who couldn't ask intelligent question or even spell his artistic pseudonym right. Even Aphex himself didn't answer her question about meaning of "Aphex Twin" saying it was "too complicated" aka "you are too stupid to get it, bitch".

this interview is so awkward istg

[@nayil100]

the interviewer is the HIGHEST guy on Earth.

[@ukrleaf]

Typical 90s in ex-USSSR) Love he sound of empty bottles being collected. By the way, the interview is 100 times funnier if you know Russian and actually understand these guys)

[@FilziSH]

Interview from pill reality

[@sjk254]

He's not shy, he doesn't like interviews. He'd rather be doing what he wants to be doing.

[@d3p3ch3mod3]

This really is just like the footage of Saddam Hussein when he was captured.

[@bleronb5998]

hahaha it took me 12 years to finally find this comment and laugh☇

[@maccrimbo]

does anyone know if there is a part 1 of this and where I could see it? been an aphex twin fan since 1994 but only seen 2 interviews including this one!

[@PlanetHellDj]

I think you should all thank this "borat" interviewer for providing one of the only 2 interviews I could find on youtube with Richard. The other one being the mtv one. Are there ohers, anyone knows? Also, thanks to the uploader

[@mcgstudmuffin]

ask awkward as this interview is, richard still seems like a nice guy :]

[@didjital101]

ahahahahaha "do you prefer your reality, or drug reality" !?! sick

[@HeyAWoodElf]

his face in the end is hilarious

[@meanmrmustard89]

where is part 3?

[@saturn1returns]

Right at the end it looks like he's gonna hook the interviewer.

[@sstrunks8000]

lol I love how he avoids the hell out of eye contact and acts like he is totally not interested. If I was interviewing him I would go insane

[@WARDISWARD]

only 23 years old at the time ...1 year before the ' I care because you do release ... AMazing genius

[@steve2000xxl]

now i love him more than i do before.

[@yushamush9849]

the fuck did the Folk Music question come from?

[@slipperyslida]

is there a last part to this, as ridiculus as this interview is, it is somehow surreal and strangely engaging

[@IvyMike777]

its like he's being interviewed by Borat. I'm sure the interviewer is a HUGE aphex twin fan.

[@retnuHDJ]

"Can't be fucked to get it cut. That's why I have a beard, I can't be bothered shaving" Haha, sweet :P He is the man.

[@WaffleWaffles]

I appreciate his honesty

[@snoopdoggdankkush9285]

THE END IS THE BEST

[@Shinobudo]

Lol, "I'm just too lazy to do anything about it." He's the man. He really needs someone who's listenned to his music to interview him. But this was over 10 years ago... I'm going to search for something more recent.

[@AndrewMisho]

вам смешно, а мне плакать хочется. Теперь понятно почему он больше никогда не приехал в Россию.

[@onomorek]

А почему? Я так и не понял

Holy crap this is painful, every time the interviewer mumbles something I want to punch my computer screen.

[@amessy]

you´re so right!!!

[@udoface]

HAHA...I wonder what the "alternate reality" was. ..too bad the interview got cut off at that part.

[@GoldenRatio]

They asked him about his hair?! Wow, that's real important.

[@MonstarScaly]

This video upsets me greatly for some reason.. But I do admire how he just calmly answers each stupid and ridiculous question..

[@jeneverbes]

yes this is one of the infamous Richard D. James KGB Interrogation Tapes

[@osuushiza8]

He's so calm-natured here! :p
