The musical background of these two guys is just very different. Everything began with an oldschool hip hop and crossover. In the middle of the 90’s they found their love for house and techhouse music. After moving on as DJ’s and having some solo releases the young and talented guys decided to create THE GLITZ in 2007. There they started with three members - but now they’re down to two now. The first EP “White Line” was a huge success. Surprisingly THE GLITZ found themselves in many DJ playlists and other electronic music charts around the world. Their follwong releases “Chatter” and “Tenga” tie in with the success of “White line”. THE GLITZ have a few releases waiting in the start blocks. So you can get ready for next singles called “Silbersee”, “Last Panther” and “Red Leaves”. Labels like Material, Ideal, Voltage Musique and Pocketgame support THE GLITZ and their kind of electronic music. The keen sense for the right sound at the right moment makes THE GLITZ not only convincing as producer but also as a DJ-Team in the clubs. People love their energetic sets, but also to see their passion behind the decks is worthwhile is the motivation of this two guys.

This project grew out of a desire to create something darker and more cinematic than my previous offerings. These new compositions employ heavily edited field recordings, mostly recorded on walks around the British countryside, combined with guitars, synthesisers and drum machines.

Maydaze is side my new side project, an outlet for some my more chilled productions.

In my previous life: 
This Channel is dedicated to Music I make on my iPhone 
I plan to primarily use it for music composed using NanoStudio, an iPhone music app with a really cool touch sequencer, a four part analogue style synthesiser and a drum machine/ sampler and best of all NanoStudio lets you load your music directly into SoundCloud.

Later on I am hoping to give a few more iPhone apps a go like technoBox, ReBirth, BeatMaker, Jasuto, Moog Filtertron, iceGear Argon, Randgrid, BeBoot, NLog  & Bloom.

The magic for me is the ability to make music while chilling on my sofa on a Friday evening without having to go up to my fully equipped studio in my Loft, but if I am not to lazy I may do some recordings of two iPhones at the same time so can have one running NanoStudio and improvise on the second using BeBoot or NLog and maybe even find a use for TouchOSC (Open Sound Control messages – over Wyfi).

And if anyone wants to by me an iPad then the Korg iMS-20 and iElectribe (:

“I Care Because He Does.”









This is a page inspired by the artist Richard D. James, more specifically, his work on the Rephlex Records label, unreleased/rare releases, and the album he released under the alias “The Tuss”, called “Rushup Edge.” Leading up to this official release, there were multiple MySpace pages said to be accounts belonging to The Tuss. At this point in 2023, it is still unclear how much of these Tuss accounts Rich was involved in… the only confirmed RDJ Tuss material are the aforementioned “Rushup Edge”, and the ep the preceded it, called “Confederation Trough”.

This page also focuses heavily on the “SoundCloud Dump”, which was a series of releases uploaded to a number of anonymous accounts on SoundCloud that eventually became clear to the world to be Richard. It is an astonishing amount of material - spanning his entire artistic career. They eventually were taken down by his record label, but there are a number of folks that compiled each track in a zip archive and can be downloaded for free to this day on archive.org. 

Though this page is dedicated to and inspired by Aphex Twin - I came to a turning point with where to take this page. The main goal is to promote. In other words,  to provide a place online for fans of Aphex Tain to easily stream the best of their favorite artist, as well as showing younger fans of electronic music who I believe is the greatest electronic musician. 

I’ve also uploaded various tracks from a few other artists that are either collaborators, influencers or those influenced by Aphex Twin. You will find some original DJ mixes done by me and some straight up “mixtape” style hour long tracks arranged by and mastered by me. 

I do not profit in any way from this monetarily speaking, but I do get a lot out of seeing the comments and the joy that the songs uploaded bring about, and archives are important.

I develop VR games, and make nasty abraisive grooves sometimes too.
