[@TheIcebomber]

M krump Just check his discogs site. There you'll find the complete discography + tracks realeased under different aliases and even rare tracks for mixtapes etc.

[@mkrump9403]

TheIcebomber I know and he did a lots, way more than I could believed. kind of paint artist.

[@TheIcebomber]

The complete discography is about 850 tracks big. Got 'em all, except for the first track of this: www.discogs.com/Aphex-Twin-Gavin-Bryars-Raising-The-Titanic/release/202433

[@mkrump9403]

850... wow. ((I have no *connection* no feed back of the sound raising titanic.)) It's pretty expensive for his rarety. I guess...

@kickdje RDJ has a collection of almost every synthesizer and sampler machine, he is one of those techno heads

[@jayrainz4639]

@kickdje nah this seems more like he made it on a vertical tracker, like renoise now a days, bets like this are easier to make on vertical trackers. / which is a form of sampling. idk about i saw him using a tr 909 at his latest concert so maybe a mix of both. i would like to know if he uses akai MPC's i really like them and ive gotten alot of similar sounds with them. ive seen pics of him like hunched over a mpc 60 and shit. wish i could just talk to the man if he wasnt so damn OmiNous

I was an English teaching assistant on the coast of Normandy during covid and during the confinements I would do jump rope in my flat when I needed to let out some energy and this album is perhaps the most rope jumpable album on the planet.

I just bought a jump rope today and saw this comment while going on an Aphex Twin nostalgic trip. The stars are aligned!! Thank you bro, can't wait to get fitter and happier

[@Desuetus]

In a recent podcast The Tuss confessed he learned all about song structure from Coursera and from watching free Point Blank tutorials on youtube every time he needed guidance. Then, using the pomodoro technique, he slowly built this album mostly inspired by the interaction with common objects in his small apartment in Paris. He gladly accepts festival invitations and loves to travel whenever he gets the chance because that puts him in contact with beautiful people. He feels blessed.

There was a serious amount of artists people speculated over, but this was the big one everyone was curious about, all the pieces were there but never any confirmation, and many people thought after analord he retired publishing-wise. still don't know who Steinvord was though...

[@Thingie5]

This is honestly the best electronic music I have ever listened to. Listening 20+ times I hear so much depth, so much thought, intricacy, and clarity of expression. If any of today's electronic music will remain a classic for centuries to come, this is it.
