  • Hello,
    this video was done as a request from ‪@cabaiste‬ to have a look at this track from Richard d James album.
    I worked out most (not all) of the harmonies, bass lines, melodies - there's a lot of them!
    As usual there were a lot of surprises - for example the form which is something like:
    Intro AA BBB CC DDDD AA !

    Man i love your work on aphex songs! could you make a video about the percussive side of this track ?? i've always been fascinated about this song's percussive elements. or maybe you have a video like this for another song i could watch? Many thanks man.

      Thanks so much!! I agree, the percussive elements are fascinating… I’ve concentrated more attention on notes + chords in my videos because it’s easier to work out what’s going on there! In the latest video on T69 Collapse I talk a bit about the rhythms… but maybe I’ll do another video just on afx percussion! 🙏

    Brilliant video again, could you please do - The Waxen Pith ( which I have just discovered is an anagram for The Aphex Twin).

      certainly! good choice :) will line this one up
      a good few of the songs on I Care Because You Do are anagrams of aphex twin, or near anagrams... "Wax The Nip" "Wet Tip Hen Ax" and "Next Heap With".
      and Acrid Avid Jam Shred is an anagram of Richard D James! weee.
      and Cow Cud Is A Twin is an anagram of Caustic Window.
