Aphex Twin

[bobbie solo]

Ticket secured through a friend, which I'm very grateful for b/c the two pre-sales thus far have been a disaster. Instant sell-outs. Good luck to everyone tomorrow morning, you're gonna need it.

[Reznorection]

Tried all three days. All three sold out in under five seconds. Was refreshing every second starting at 9:59 and hit "get tickets" immediately only to be told they were in other carts. Literally the most impossible ticket buying experience I've ever encountered. Really bummed about it.

[Sarah K]

The exact same thing happened to me. After I got that message, I refreshed once, and they were sold out.

It was a doomed mission. The saddest thing is, if these are still "only" 250 bucks when I get paid next, I will probably buy a single for that price.

[Exocet]

i seem to go on an Aphex Twin binge once every year, on this years binge this one, really stands out. sounds like the aftermath of a devastating battle on the eastern front in ww2.

^ I'm still pissed off that Sire Records deleted that track from the North American CD release. Glad they reinstated this one (#19 aka "Stone in Focus") for the digital reissue, it's also quite awesome:

Here's the .aac demuxed (138.47 MB) from a .ts capture of the Red Bull TV stream (6.09 GB):

Also included is cover art / an advert (1080x1080) for the Red Bull Music Festival 2019 - London event.

EDIT: demux done with tsMuxeR

------------------------------------------------------------

Since the .aac file was extracted raw, simply changing the extension to .m4a results in a corrupted audio file in this case. I used FFmpeg to copy the audio from .aac to .m4a (137.5 MB - no audio quality loss):

Awesome set! Ughhh I want another Aphex full length! Syro is one of my favorite records this decade.

You mean the multiple releases over the last few years, bonus tracks being added to previous releases, and the 150+ track Soundcloud dump wasn't enough?

lol you got me! I love all of that stuff but I want another long form, focused effort.

So do I

Hey, anyone know who was on stage with Aphex Twin during the performance? There were 2 people. I'm surprised no one is talking about this.

I found a Reddit post about hosting performance at Ceremonia and people saying there was a woman on stage with him. Someone said it was his wife. She actually fiddles with modular gear? It does look like a woman at the London show and she is playing with modular gear.

That'd be Anastasia Rybina (his wife):

I posted this on reddit but does anyone feel weird seeing real pictures of Richard? His face is so iconic that when I see actual photos of him all I can imagine is a person with a mask on.

I hope this doesn't think I'm a bot...

All physical merchandise, with the exception of the tote bag, sold out within hours. However, there are 8 new digital tracks:

https://aphextwin.warp.net/release/1...win-manchester
https://aphextwin.warp.net/release/1...ex-twin-london

I went ahead and captured the (best) audio streams from the YouTube video above. The video+audio is just shy of 3 GB, so I didn't upload that. The audio is available as m4a (128 kbps @ 44.1 kHz) and ogg (160 kbps @ 48 kHz, encapsulated in .webm):

I bought the new EPs, but it turns out I had most of the tracks already on the Orphaned Deejay Selek reissue download bonus tracks, and the Soundcloud dump (but some of it in lossless for the first time, which is nice to have).

I think all 8 of the tracks have had a release at some point, either through the mediums you mentioned or vinyl-only ("Soundlab20").

Radiator (Original Mix) feels both great and terrible to me. On the one hand, Radiator is my fave song off of SAW2 and I can never have enough renditions of it, let alone a beat-driven one. However, I feel the beats are ruining the timelessness from the song, and make it sound like a SAW1 outtake. Was this made before or after the SAW2 version?
