Hey what’s up! I made a thing from an AxialMatt clip.
He’s having a ball playing among us with ZeRoyalViking, DooleyNotedGaming, Shubble, BlueCheesyNips, Eli, Davin, Junkyard129, and ToastFPS.
Hey I know raak is end to the derps but I don't follow them and can never recall how to spell their blog title thing so I'll ask here. Are you alright? Not sure if you were friends or just colleagues but this whole thing must be weird and rugged . Also sorry if someone else runs this, I think it's raak but I'm really not sure.
"Hey! Yeah it’s @raakxhyr !! I’m doing okay! I’ve been behind the scenes with them on everything going on, but after John’s whole thing, everything’s kind of calmed down in a way. I think he did really good addressing the whole situation.

Aphex Twin ‘Syro’ (Warp) Released 19th September 2014.
Starring through the ‘polygon window’, taking stock and encouraged by the interest in a prized unreleased test pressing of his fabled mid-90s Caustic Window album earlier this year – that went on sale for an initial sum of £8,050, before a collective of lively enthusiast cut a deal via Kickstarter to release it to a wider circle of fans – Richard D James has decided that now would be a good moment to release the abundance of material he’s been sitting on for the last few years: if an interview he conducted a few years ago, and since repeated, are true, there are at least another six finished albums wait
TEDDY OR NOT… Thanks to my brother for the scans, cheers Paul! Techno’s eccentric ginger prince APHEX TWIN likes to construct noises that upset people.

Aphex Twin’s Collapse EP Reviewed From The Gwennap Pit
Apparently there are 18 Cornish places namechecked in the work of Richard D James. I took this figure from the handy and very personal (albeit sniffy about popular and mainstream culture) book Walking The Music Of Aphex Twin by George Butterworth, which sets out to look at the thought of his music entity the product or model of these particular places. I’d been intending to visit the Logan Rock for about two decades after becoming obsessed with the closing track on the Richard D. James Album and the very strange story behind the title but didn’t really formulate any kind of firm plan to trawl round Cornwall with an AFX checklist until Laura Snapes wrote an essay entitled The Wheal Thing: Aphex Twin’s Alternative Cornish Language for this very site a few years ago. So it was last week during a short family break in Kernow that I finally found myself attempting to tick off as many of the 18 places as I could while also fitting in a day out at the Eden Project, body boarding on Porth Beach and the many amusement arcades of Newquay. In a fit of synchronicity that I couldn’t ignore however,
