that is one sad boy.

The various tracks from the legendary Aphex Twin 2015 soundcloud dump of unreleased material seem to have scattered far and wide, so I've assembled my playlists into conveniently LP-sized packages. 
Newly included: my bonus mixes of obscurities, not all Soundcloud related, definitely all RDJ-related.
See what you think :)

Richard D. James - thank you.

Aphex Twin Mixes/Playlists (Soundcloud Dump)

AFX mixes

So it's taken me two years to pick this series up again; hopefully it was worth the wait :) 
The sharp-eyed observer will notice that I've been sat on this one for a month, and I must say I've been enjoying it immensely, packed as it is with some of my all-time favourite AFX moments. From the poignant genius of Wet Tip Hen Ax, If It Really Is Me and the sublime AB5 Tk1, to the uplifting bounciness of Klopjob and Cuckoo, and importantly Analogue Bubblebath 1 - which I'd single out as THE song that kicked off my RDJ fixation. As previously discussed, these are not all obscurities, and I'm entirely comfortable with this. 
Enjoy the mix!

If you're familiar with Aphex Twin's outstanding Melodies from Mars, you'll know what to expect here - beautiful, laidback, charmingly catchy earworms with the odd detour into insanity (shroomdot). Hapshifter 1, previously included with Analogue Bubblebath 5, is included here as it sits nicely. Don't miss the closing track, String Slush.

Unreleased Aphex Twin tracks from the Richard D. James album era (probably) including the essential Make a Baby, (mature raver), alternate versions of Carn Marth, 5 and Girl/Boy song, and a bunch of other good stuff plus a few anomalies thrown in for good measure.

You On That Fuyck Shit  2

Zeenus Pill

Good Friday to you all. Hope you're keeping cheerfully sane in the midst of all this utter chaos. 

Trapped as I am with hundreds of RDJ tracks and a mild disinclination to work, I felt compelled to bash out a third instalment in this increasingly-misnamed series. Big shout to those of you supporting the first two mixes, if you're feeling part 3 please do the same, give it a repost, leave a comment and spread the word X 

One huge thanks <3 to RDJ @user18081971 for blessing us and even now still smashing out the free tracks, as if we weren't spoilt enough. I would have missed the last few, so cheers to Mr Hump @user-244983548 and Paul @distantworldtransmissions for the tip-offs; I've included tha2 [world scam mix] from this week's haul. What a gem.

Aphex Twin Obscurities Mix Part III

Aphex Twin Obscurities Mix Part III (09/04/2020)

* Message me if you have any copyright issues *

Home of my own mixes - predominantly jungle/hardcore with the odd bit of D&B, plus eclectic sample-digging, breaks and hip-hop, techno & electronica. 

Pre-2001, all mixes vinyl; Post-2016, all mixes digital (DJay 2); Post-2018, Ableton Live. Why? Why not?
I've got an old skool DJ's mentality, early influences ranging from Sublove, Ratty, Randall & Hype to Coldcut, DJ Juice, MK & Primo.  In the early 00s I turned my back on D&B, retired my turntables in favour of family/work commitments, and got into funk, soul, reggae and so on... a lot of this driven by curiosity around the sample roots of hardcore and jungle.  Forward another decade and an early mid-life crisis saw me messing around with virtual decks on my phone, and later acquiring a vinyl ripper, with one vision in mind: making mixes.
Although I'm partial to the odd DJay or vinyl mix when I get the chance, the progression into Ableton Live was a simple means to an end.  My ideas stretch further than the limitations of my physical collection and real-time mixing, and by sequencing I can pick, choose, chip away and structure mixes at my leisure. Which I do... a lot :)

Wait, there's more ... an absolute stack of classic golden era/old skool hip-hop/turntablism, jungle and d&b, hardcore, techno and house mixes retrieved from my dusty tape & CD archives.  This includes (by my reckoning) the most exhaustive collections of classic Full Cycle and Sublove Galaxy Radio shows, live Ruffneck Ting jungle tapes, loads of studio & compilation mixes, all manner of rave tapes, and so on. 

Have fun, spread the love :)
