And 'Blessed'

[djake]

good video quality but *REALLY* bad sound recording. Aphex was playing the most insane sounds and Die Antwoord were merely background sounds like ghostly voices in a raging sonic storm, it worked quite well. This video shows Die Antwoord as the main sound and aphex as the background.

Yeah you could hardly hear Die Antwoord, they just added to the fucked up noise that Aphex was producing, it was great.

Don't really understand the hate for him playing dubstep in his set. If he was playing the 'wobble' stuff that gets this forums knickers in a twist I would understand, but he wasn't. Those tunes are big, and great choices by Aphex considering L.E.D supplied him with a perfect soundsystem for relentless bass. It seems nowadays this forum has a policy of writing off any Dj in and outside of the scene who plays a tune that's not by Digital Mystiks.

I guess you had to be there

He's dropped 2-D by Skream before, was great

Keep in mind that Aphex Twin's label has some of the earliest releases by Digital Mystikz, Loefah, Kode9, and MRK1.

This was a point that needed making. It's not like RDJ discovered grime / dubstep when he accidentally caught 'Katy On A Mission' on CBeebies.

I didn't even know Aphex Twin DJ'd.

He started off as a DJ.

I have to say this is really quite dissapointing. There is no way I'd bother going to see him if he's going to play a bunch of other people's records. He should at least be throwing in some of his own productions. I'd love to hear his take on dubstep.

[luthervandub]

He dropped Custard Cream when he played at Matter

He does, quite often. Usually drukQs and SAW85-92 stuff. And of course Analord. And The Tuss.
Doesn't take up a huge percent of the set, but it's rare that there's no RDJ stuff at all.

[pompende]

wow this is the only thing that could make die antwoord any weirder...seeing them mc for one of the most innovative producers as he plays trashy tearout bangers..

this is just one big packet of absurdity.

[bagelator]

has to be a wind up

[Sticky Onion]

haha sick

[antipode]

No tunes from Grime 2 then?
