Slarty Fart Blaster Posted September 28, 2003 Saw him once in Manchester... the lights came up and all that was on stage was him, lying down in a sleeping bag with an Apple laptop. Hope his show is a bit more sophisiticated now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
narayan Posted September 29, 2003 Hopefully he's gonna do some other shows besides the BDO in adelaide. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chris Posted September 29, 2003 From what I've read he dosent ever realy put on much of a show.He said he makes music for the cash so he dosent have to work..fair enough.. Thats the way i feel ,if only i could do the same with my art.. I'd still love to see him perform ,but fuck paying BDO ticket prices just to see one performance.

zetetic Posted October 1, 2003 what i saw said it was aphex twin vs luke vibert who is alos fantastic... i would love to see both those guys but yes the prices for BDO are quite expensive... however i cant really see him coming all this way just for the bdo... or am i just wishful thinking some other shows? best get checking his sites....

narayan Posted October 2, 2003 Thats what I thought last year about the prodigy. But unfortuanatley they only did the BDO shows so I had to fork out $95 to see it. Worth it though :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hagakure Posted October 2, 2003 it would be a shame if his live show sucked considering his video clips. the directors cut of "windowlicker" has an extended conversation between the two thugz. bloody hilarious. :D does luke vibert have several other names? i think wagonchrist is one but i swear he has a couple.

mescalito Posted October 2, 2003 His clips SCARE me and he's such an ugly MOFO! "Windowlicker" pushes the extreme I love the shit :D [ 02. October 2003, 01:01: Message edited by: mescalito ] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hagakure Posted October 3, 2003 he may be an ugly mofo but at the way he dances with that umbrella i bet he gets all the ladies :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chris Posted October 4, 2003 You shoul check out the Come to dady film clip.. very freaky but cool... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
narayan Posted October 5, 2003 Come to daddy is a scary song and the film clip portrays the song to a tea. Its amazing the variety of music that Aphex makes. Compare a pyscho drum and bass track like come to daddy with one like kesson daslef which is a very soft and soothing piano track. I remember seeing a guy who goes by the name of pearl on mixmasters one night commenting on how people like Aphex possess a musical ability that cannot be learnt and that you can only be born with. I couldn't agree more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zetetic Posted October 8, 2003 yeah luke vibert goes under a few names, wagonchrist and plug being the most popular ones i beleive... the film clips are fantastic... however i have moved onto venetian snares as my fave idm musician, his tunage is a bit more insane then idm and a bit violent for some but it rocks and the filmclip for find candace is very disturbing ... he manages to pull off the insane beats followed by melodic ambient sounds no problem..

toby Posted October 8, 2003 Aphex twin played a big day out a few years ago now, and did the same thing (lay down with laptop) i think back then he was pushing the faceless electronic idea, where you would get records and not know where they came from or who made them, but these days his face is all over everything?
