It's mad to think all these tracks were just lying around for years...like, the dump was FULL of gems. It's fucking crazy.

[@glassboxes]

richard always made music, but it was his friends that recommended what to release

[@PANTEMORT]

Cause it s a prolifik genius

[@stupiddummy9635]

What ya talking about?

[@lomanoneill7299]

And people were ĺike "yeah right" then as a gift boom heres some i didnt know what to do with so ill give them as a gift" Over 200 songs free!😊 Absolute ledgend

[@mortenriisberg]

The part from 3:50 to 4:40 is what makes this whole track for me.

[@bolenarrow9286]

YES I NEED LIKE A 5 MINUTE VERSION OF SOMETHING JUST LIKE THIS IN MY LIFE -.-

[@dbpooper7512]

Can't believe he ever shelved this. This is an absolute stunner. Classic!

[@fantasyproduct1042]

And his drum programming is just so offset and also tight

[@idonotknowwhyyoutubeletsyo5893]

Imagine if someone played this in the medieval ages. With the drums.

[@pauljohnpinkybennett3557]

Oh, mate, imagine it in Puru, on machu Picchu before the incas. ????? I wish I had a time machine.

[@_Major00Donut_]

Reality would fall apart. but it would be worth it. Lol

[@ShadowShift7]

@@_Major00Donut_ I wonder what kind of thing would make our reality fall apart?

[@johna3789]

[@leonidaspapu3912]

​@@ShadowShift7 more or less cosmic gravity and everything collapses. So that

[@fantasyproduct1042]

He's such a wizard with electronic melody. Genius.

[@kisekinomahou]

This track already brings me back to 2014 2015 when I would blast the soundcloud tracks on my way home from work EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. for that entire year.

[@Henzo17]

I did the same thing back then!

[@alphaprobe1710]

Medievil is my favorite PSP game. This track is awesome.

[@rwxsed]

Hands down my favourite AFX track ever

[@kevinba972]

Its a fun fact the medievil (what a funny word) melodies have similarities to rave melodies. Aphex is one of the most impressive artist. Definitely.

[@gherat]

This is basically the "drumkit" used on Come To Daddy (Mummy Mix)

[@maxabeles]

good ear!!!

[@nightmoves001]

MASTERPIECE its sad to think i just heard this for the first time yesterday.

"Pre Plauge." The man predicted COVID. What a legend

[@Wil_Dsense]

Not really, There was a such things as the black plagues and others in those times… even though RDJ is God, I doubt he predicted the Skamdemic.

[@ToneLa]

Black Death, pandemic that ravaged Europe between 1347 and 1351, taking a proportionately greater toll of life than any other known epidemic or war up to that time. The Black Death is widely believed to have been the result of plague, caused by infection with the bacterium Yersinia pestis

[@aumoccbei3197]

the melody has shades of ResuRection by PPK -- I thought he was quoting it line for line so had to go back to the original to make sure. really cool & very of its late-90s / early 00s moment

[@vertsk8er419]

Soundcloud

[@tom.konxompax]

fuck spotify

[@Richie33404]

not officially released. along with like 50+% of his best stuff. don’t rely on these streaming services for underground artists 🙂

[@VeriddisQuo]

PRE PLAGUE mix

[@WARDISWARD]

since medieval rave was released on the analord ep'S during 2005 , It's fair to say that medievil rave mk2 was made around the same period and NOT 199?

[@richtusser]

lets compare this track from 4:43 with The Tuss - Last Rushup 10 (2007) from 5:12 for about 25seconds both....

[@somaticjet2717]

when he makes em and when he puts em out have been known to be years and years apart. i wouldnt know how to estimate when stuff was made.

[@sgr9400]

Ward de jager : some ancient afx sheet music does still exist from circa 199 in the form of scrolls which were bequeathed to the Stuttgart Museum of Culture several years ago by an anonymous donor. If you were to visit you’ll find these scrolls on display in the museum’s Horst room together with 2 superbly preserved accordions, although the conch shell speaker system that was designed to amplify the accordions was sadly never found when the accordions were excavated.

[@dmhrpr756]

This track shares the same drum palette with tracks from Girl/Boy EP and RDJ Album, so I would say late 1995 - 1996

[@germainfraisse4763]

Sounds like a Castelvania sountrack

[@user-bl4rc7cv9b]

It reminds me of Vordhosbn.
