ʻO Richard David James, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka inoa ʻo Aphex Twin, ʻo ia kekahi o nā mea hoʻokani koʻikoʻi a kaulana i nā manawa āpau.
Mai ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana i kāna mau album mua i ka makahiki 1991, ua hoʻomaʻemaʻe mau ʻo James i kona ʻano a hoʻokau i nā palena o nā mele uila.
Ua alakaʻi ʻia kēia i kahi ākea ākea o nā ʻaoʻao like ʻole i ka hana a ka mea hoʻokani: mai kahi lewa hoʻomana a hiki i ka ʻenehana koʻikoʻi.
ʻAʻole like me ka hapa nui o nā mea pena kiʻi i hōʻike ʻia ma ka 90s techno scene, ua hoʻokumu ʻo James iā ia iho he mea hana i nā mele kipi a me nā wikiō.
Ua kōkua kēia mau palena ʻano pohihihi iā James e hoʻonui i kāna mau mea hoʻolohe mai ka poʻe hoʻolohe hoʻolohe a i ka poʻe connoisseurs rock.
He nui ka poʻe mele i kapa ʻia ʻo ia ko lākou kumu hoʻoikaika.
ʻO kāna mele piano ʻo "Avril 14th" mai ka album "Drukqs" ua lawe mālie i kona ola ponoʻī ma o ka hoʻohana pinepine ʻana i ke kīwī a me ke kiʻiʻoniʻoni, a lilo i hana kaulana loa a Aphex Twin.
Ma ka waena o 2010s, ua hoʻokomo nui ʻia ka mea hoʻokani pila i ka moʻomeheu o kēia wā i ka hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻana o nā album e like me 2014's "Syro" a me 2018's "Collapse" ma mua o kahi hoʻolaha hoʻolaha hoʻolaha.
Hoʻokomo ʻia ka hōʻike ʻana i ka hōʻailona hōʻailona ʻo Aphex Twin ma nā papa hoʻolaha ma nā kūlanakauhale nui.
ʻO ka hoʻomakaʻana
Ua hoihoi ʻo James i nā lako uila i kona wā ʻōpio ma Cornwall, ʻEnelani.
Wahi a nā mele mua a ka mea hoʻokani mele, ua hana ʻia kēia mau leo e ia i ka makahiki 14.
Hoʻoulu ʻia e ka hale waikawa i ka hopena o 80s, ua lilo ʻo James i DJ ma Cornwall.
ʻO kāna hana mua ʻo ia ka EP "Analogue Bubblebath", i hoʻopaʻa ʻia me Tom Middleton a hoʻokuʻu ʻia ma ka lepili Mighty Force i Kepakemapa 1991.
Ua haʻalele ʻo Middleton iā James e hoʻokumu i kāna hui Global Communication. Ma hope o kēlā, ua hoʻopaʻa ʻo James i ka hoʻomau ʻana o ka pūʻulu Analogue Bubblebath.
Ma ke kaʻina o kēia mau album hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike iā "Digeridoo", i ka hoʻokuʻu hou ʻana i ka makahiki 1992 i lawe i ka 55th ma nā palapala Pelekane.
Ua loaʻa i ka album kekahi mea i hōʻike ʻia ma ka lekiō pirate ʻo Lākana ʻo Kiss FM a ua koi i ka lepili leo mele Belgian R&S Records e kau inoa i ka mea mele.
I ka makahiki 1992, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻo James i ka Xylem Tube EP. I ka manawa like, ua hana ʻo ia i kāna inoa ponoʻī, ʻo Rephlex, me Grant Wilson-Claridge, e hoʻokuʻu ana i kahi pūʻulu mele i kapa ʻia ʻo Caustic Window i ka makahiki 1992-1993.
Hoʻomohala ʻana i nā mele ambient
Eia nō naʻe, ua ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ke ʻano o ka ʻenehana "naʻauao" i nā makahiki 90. Ua hōʻoia ʻo Orb i ka hiki ke kūʻai aku i ka ʻano hale ambient me kā lākou papa kiʻekiʻe "Blue Room".
I ka manawa like, ua hoʻokumu ka inoa kūʻokoʻa Belgian R&S i kahi ʻāpana ambient i kapa ʻia ʻo Apollo.
I Nowemapa 1992, ua hana ʻo James i kāna poʻokela ma ka album lōʻihi loa Selected Ambient Works 85-92, ʻo ia ka nui o nā mea i hana ʻia i ka home i hoʻopaʻa ʻia i nā makahiki i hala.
ʻO ka waiho wale ʻana, he hana ʻenehana ambient a me ka lua o ka hana a ka mea pena ma hope o Orb's Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld.
I kona ʻālohilohi ʻana e like me ka hōkū maoli, huli kekahi mau pūʻulu i ka mea hoʻokani me ka makemake e hoʻohui i kā lākou mau mele.
Ua ʻae ʻo James, a ua "hōʻano hou ʻia" ka hopena mai nā hui e like me The Cure, Jesus Jones, Meat Beat Manifesto a me Curve.
I ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka makahiki 1993, ua kau inoa ʻo Richard James me Warp Records, kahi lepili Pelekane koʻikoʻi i hoʻolauna maoli i ka manaʻo o ka "mele uila e hoʻolohe ai" me kahi pūʻulu album mai nā paionia techno Black Dog, Autechre, B12 a me FUSE (aka Richie Hawtin) .
Ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻo James i ka moʻo i kapa ʻia ʻo "Surfing on Sine Waves" i ka makahiki 1993 ma lalo o ka pseudonym Polygon Window.
Hoʻokumu ka album i kahi papa ma waena o ke kani paʻakikī o nā mele techno, a me ka minimalism kī haʻahaʻa e like me "Selected Ambient Works".
ʻO ka hana pū me Warp a me TVT i hua mai - ka album "Surfing on Sine Waves", i hoʻokuʻu ʻia i ke kauwela o 1993. I ka makahiki hoʻokahi, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka lua album "Analogue Bubblebath 3 for Rephlex".
Ua hoʻopaʻa ʻia ka hana ma lalo o ka pseudonym AFX a ua lilo ʻo ia ka moʻolelo mamao loa mai ka ambient i ka hana a Aphex Twin.
Ma hope o ka huakaʻi ʻana iā ʻAmelika me Orbital a me Moby ma hope o kēlā makahiki, ua ʻoki ʻo James i kāna papa hana hana.
"Nā Hana Ambient i koho ʻia, Vol. II"
I Dekemaba 1993, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia kahi mele hou i kapa ʻia ʻo "On". Ua piʻi ʻo ia i ka piko o nā pakuhi, e piʻi ana i ka helu 32 ma UK.
Aia ka mea hoʻokahi i ʻelua ʻāpana a ua hoʻokomo pū ʻia nā remixes na James 'old pal Tom Middleton, a me ka piʻi ʻana o ka hōkū Rephlex Ziq.
ʻOiai ke ʻano o James ma nā papa mele pop, kāna album hou, Selected Ambient Works, Vol. II" i hoʻohenehene ʻia e ke kaiāulu techno.
Ua lilo ka hana i mea minimalistic loa, i hoʻopaʻa pū ʻia me nā puʻupuʻu liʻiliʻi a me ka walaʻau hoʻopilikia i ke kua.
Ua hōʻea ka album i ka 11 kiʻekiʻe ma nā palapala kiʻi UK a hāʻawi koke iā James i ka manawa e kau inoa ai i kahi ʻaelike me kahi lepili ʻAmelika.
I ka makahiki 1994, ua hana ka mea hookani pila no ka lepili Rephlex e ulu mau ana. -Ziq, Kosmik Kommando, Kinesthesia / Cylob i hoʻopaʻa ʻia ma laila.
I ʻAukake 1994, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka album ʻehā ma ka Analogue Bubblebath series (he EP me ʻelima mau mele).
Ua hoʻomaka ʻo 1995 me ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana o Ianuali o "Classics", kahi hōʻiliʻili o nā mele mele R&S mua. ʻElua mau mahina ma hope mai, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻo James i ka "Ventolin", kahi leo gritty, gritty. Ua lana ko James manao nui nona.
ʻO Richard D. James Album
ʻO ka "I Care Because You Do" i ukali ʻia ma ʻApelila, e hui pū ana me nā mea ambient symphonic.
ʻO ka hoʻohui ʻana i kēia ʻano ʻokoʻa ka hana a nā mea haku mele post-classical - me Philip Glass, nāna i hoʻonohonoho i ka mana orchestral o Icct Hedral i ʻAukake.
Ma hope o kēlā makahiki, ua hoʻololi ka Hangable Auto Bulb EP i ka Analogue Bubblebath 3 ma ke ʻano he hoʻokuʻu ʻino loa a me ka hoʻokuʻu ʻole ʻana o Aphex Twin, e hui pū ana i nā mele hoʻokolohua mai nā ʻaoʻao like ʻole.
I Iulai 1996, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻo Rephlex i ka hui pū ʻana i manaʻo nui ʻia ma waena o Richard James a me -Ziq. ʻO ka album "Expert Knob Twiddlers" (i hoʻopaʻa inoa ʻia ʻo Mike & Rich) i hoʻoheheʻe ʻia i ka hoʻokolohua a Aphex Twin me ka electro-funk maʻalahi e hoʻolohe -Ziq.
Ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka album ʻehā a Aphex Twin i Nowemapa 1996 a ua kapa ʻia ʻo Richard D. James Album. Ua hoʻomau ka hana i kāna ʻimi ʻana i nā mele hoʻokolohua.
Akā me ka makemake e paʻi i nā papa mele Pelekane, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻo James 'elua mau hoʻokuʻu - ʻo 1997 EP "Come to Daddy" a me ka 1999 EP "Windowlicker" - ua hoʻokele ʻia i loko o ke kumu nui o ka pahu a me ka bass.
Nā 2000 mua
ʻAʻole i hoʻokuʻu ʻo James i kekahi mea ma 2000, akā hoʻopaʻa i ka helu no Flex, kahi kiʻiʻoniʻoni pōkole na Chris Cunningham i hōʻike ʻia ma ke ʻano o ka hōʻikeʻike Apocalypse ma ka Royal Academy ma Lākana.
Me ka liʻiliʻi loa o ka hoʻolaha mua ʻana, ma ka hopena o 2001 ua puka mai kekahi LP "Drukqs" - kekahi o nā hoʻokuʻu kupaianaha loa a James.
Eia naʻe, ua hana ka album i kekahi o kāna mau mele kaulana loa, ʻo ia hoʻi ka ʻāpana piano "Avril 14th", i puka ʻia ma nā kiʻiʻoniʻoni a me nā papahana kīwī.
Ke kūʻai aku nei i "Caustic Window" ma ke kudala
ʻOiai ua hoʻomau ʻo James i ka hana pinepine ʻana me nā DJ, ʻaʻole ʻo ia i hoʻokuʻu i kekahi mea hou a hiki i 2005, i ka manawa i hoʻokuʻu ai ʻo Rephlex i kekahi o kā lākou hana i kapa ʻia ʻo "Analord", kahi minimalist techno ambient.
Ma ʻaneʻi ua hoʻi ka mea hoʻokani pila i kāna kani "Caustic Window" a me "Bubblebath" o nā makahiki 90. Ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻo Chosen Lords, he CD compilation o kekahi mau mea mai Analord, i ʻApelila 2006.
Ua hoʻomau ʻo James i ka hoʻokani mele ma ke ʻano he DJ a hoʻokani ola. A i ka makahiki 2009, ua hānau ʻia ʻo "Rushup Edge" LP, a ua kau inoa ʻia e ka pseudonym Tuss.
ʻOiai ua hōʻole ʻo James lāua ʻo Rephlex ʻo kāna hana ia, aia nā lono he inoa ʻē aʻe ʻo Aphex.
ʻO nā lono ʻē aʻe i ka hopena o 2000s e pili ana i ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana i kahi album James hou, akā ua lilo lākou i kumu ʻole.
Eia nō naʻe, i ka makahiki 2014, ua kūʻai kūʻai ʻia kahi mana loa o ka album Caustic Window i ka makahiki 1994. Ua kūʻai ʻia ma o ka hui hoʻokahi a hāʻawi ʻia i nā poʻe komo ma ke ʻano kikohoʻe.
Ua kūʻai ʻia ke kope kino e ka mea nāna i hana i ka pāʻani wikiō kaulana ʻo Min. Ua hoʻoili ʻia ma mua o $46, a ua māhele ʻia ke kālā ma waena o James, nā mea kākoʻo a me kahi hui aloha.
He aha ka mea e hoʻolohe ai mai ka Aphex Twin hou?
I ʻAukake o ia makahiki hoʻokahi, ua ʻike ʻia kahi mokulele ʻōmaʻomaʻo me ka hōʻailona Aphex Twin ma Lākana. Ma ka hopena o ka mahina aʻe, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻo Warp iā "Syro", ka album mua ʻo Aphex Twin i nā makahiki he ʻumi.
Ua lanakila ka album i ka Grammy no ka Best Dance/Electronic Album. ʻEkolu mahina wale nō ma hope mai, ua hoʻouka ʻo James ma luna o 30 mau mele i hoʻokuʻu ʻole ʻia ma mua i loaʻa no ka hoʻoiho manuahi.
Ma hope ma 2015, ma hope o ka hoʻouka ʻana o James ma luna o 100 mau mele, ua hoʻihoʻi ka mea hana i ka inoa AFX no kahi EP hou aʻe: "Orphaned Deejay Selek 2006-2008".
Loaʻa pinepine nā hana ola ma 2017 me nā tiketi liʻiliʻi loa.
I ke kauwela o 2018, ua hoʻokumu ʻo James i kahi hoʻolaha hoʻolaha alanui pohihihi.
Ua loaʻa ka logo Aphex Twin ma Lākana, Turin a me Los Angeles, akā ʻaʻole i hāʻawi ʻia nā kikoʻī hou aʻe. I Kepakemapa o ia makahiki hoʻokahi, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻo ia i ka Collapse EP, kahi i hōʻike ʻia i ke mele nani "T69 Collapse".
