People who work incredibly hard often think they’re lazy. He has one of the largest bodies of work of any electronic music producer … he’s probably just being a little hard on himself.
Some people think ‘down to earth’ means humble, but it doesn’t jibe well with humble eccentrics… …most people don’t understand what being humble means either.
Long post, sorry. I feel inspired. I have been thinking about Aphex Twin a lot recently. I am not really a fan. But someone did me a mixtape on cassette in the early 90's of him. And I bought a couple of his early CD's, which I've sadly lost. But mainly because I still have another cassette music tape which I have labelled 'Unknown Ambient?'. I think it's by him - and I have been going through YT videos of his music to see if I can find what it it is? But I can't. And then I saw a recent set by Aphex Twin on YT, which had amazing lights and visuals. Is the RUclips Algorithm/AI reading my mind? PS. I used to do Lucid Dreaming, as is mentioned in the interview. Which is where you become aware that you are dreaming and are actually asleep. The technique I used is - Get a wind up alarm clock. Set it for about 3AM or so? But only wind the alarm key once. So it just makes a bell sound and not a full alarm. You don't want to wake up. But if you are dreaming when the single bell tone goes off - with practice it will tell you that you are dreaming and you can gain control. I met and played with my long dead family dog - and I knew that it was my neighbour that run him over and he never told us that it was him that did it! And a beautiful girl told me to stop being afraid to ask girls like her out!
my brothers going to love ths he gave me youtube premium accses so we wont have adverts it makes you want to listen when theres no hellish adverts thanks barry
@forestsunset9617 Sneaker Pimps are pretty good actually. Not bad at all. Wouldn't expect them to be Richard's cup of tea but that shouldn't stop anyone else from liking them.
@@frankvazquez5974 he did have a tank and he did buy a bank that much is true, he claimed elsewhere he bought a small ewe navy sub probably a lie but who knows, he's not poor
this was valid or say objective in 1997. When there was hope and chance in electronic music. However now, this is just celebrity cult worship. Check another artist, ATOM, way ahead of any Aphex Twinism. To begin with 200 PLUS ALBUMS. Makes Aphex seem like a regular english skool kid.
What do you recommend? Had a look on RUclips but couldn't find anything. Also it's a bit daft comparing artists like it's a cup competition, you can like more than one person
Grateful this was recorded inside a microwave while it was on
hahah gotta keep the vibez up
Old style microwave with mechanical timer
It was record inside soviet Space Station MIR. No Gravity, no Lies.

James could probably turn that sound into a sweet track
Someone just relentlessly clappin cheeks in the other room
Underrated comment
it's Eric Andre
even got an unreleased track playing throughout the background.. great stuff!
yeah it's called stealthwank101.-22

Really hurts when he said “I’m lazy“ like how is that even possible with as much material Richard produced. 😅
he holds himself to healthy standards? not quite our place to care too much lol but agreed
He makes it in his free time for fun.
People who work incredibly hard often think they’re lazy. He has one of the largest bodies of work of any electronic music producer … he’s probably just being a little hard on himself.
I know what you mean. He's just smarter than us ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@SuperYTPmaster Richard has said before that Squarepusher has good work ethic. And then SP himself said he's kinda lazy. So it's like. Lol.
this doesn't feel like an interview, this just sounds like a convo between good friends
That’s how interviews should be imo
i lovs his whole persona hes hilarious i could listen for hour's
just uploaded a version without the hum in case you're interested
I love the way he's talking about Window Licker as "stupid voices" and Come to Daddy, when these turn out to be such iconic tracks.
No mention of Windowlicker. "Stupid voices" is when he's talking about the Come To Daddy EP
"yeah i went for a shit and there was like 20 people in a row" lmfao
"Well, I don't know if I'm GOOD, but compared to someone who's shit, I'm good."
He is a master of his brain
aye. one of my dreams is that someday people might say this of me.
You Can DO IT@@vvvvaaaacccc
Richard: I bought a whole bank.
Guy from the RUclips comment section: Wow. He's a down-to-earth cool guy.
Some people think ‘down to earth’ means humble, but it doesn’t jibe well with humble eccentrics…
…most people don’t understand what being humble means either.
i hope youtube won't delete this one just like it happened to other of his interviews
Help out by downloading and reuploading it on other sites too
We need to keep an archive/database for stuff like this. Maybe on MEGA or someplace else?
This is amazing thank you so much!
this is sick

I like that he talks about come to daddy at 25:01
"I'm just a lazy person."
>over 100 hours of unreleased music
Fucking gold. This is exactly what I was looking for
the interviewer copping aphex’ english phrases right after he’d say them. 🤣
ha this lad is a legend , sounds like me chatting to me mates

can you upload the tape or something? shit, record it playing with you phone and send me the audio file, i'll sort it out...
I aint readin allat
crazy how little there is about richards life online considering he has so much music documented like he has no social media
Lanner Chronicle tells you fuck loads. The best way to focus on your own life and not be distracted by people is to avoid using social networking
@@tomwalters4009 what?
I think it's because he's not that fussed about the fame, he just enjoys music.
It's the same with Jack Stauber and various others.
i like how he says "fcking fucking fucking" he was rude back then. Glad he matured as an middle aged man
would you prefer him in a suit and bow tie 🤷♂️ maybe Glenn Miller Twin 😂

richard d. sneeze 17:50
Idk what I expected him to sound like but it wasn’t this
He is just a human too...😄
There are a few other interviews and videos where he talks out there aren't there
He says fuck a lot more than I figured he would.
Lol he just sounds like a bored Londoner
He sounds like a stoned mate back in the 90s.
what about the background noise 😟😟😟😟

It's Not a real Tank, he owns an armoured car and they are called a Ferret. You're Welcome. 😂👊

Did he actually bought a freaking summarine? 😂
Would love to know if he ever did it
I think he is messing around a whole lot in this interview.
Generally speaking assume he’s lying lol. You have to read between the lines a bit with ol’ Richard.

Not about quantity whatsoever. Aphex is all about QUALITY
