WTF? First it was Cylob DJ'ing, then Luke Vibert then Grant. Luke played
most of the above.

Its the women with beards.
This is a cool video, funnier than _Daddy_. Chris (Cunningham) was
really nervous about the showing but everyone was totally into it,
cheering whenever they saw an Aphex logo.
The video track is different than the single, featuring a kind of slower
hip-hop version at the beginning - and nope, Rich doesn't want this
video version to have a separate release :(
Grant played loads of tracks by this new artist, Bogdan something - they
are insane. Imagine Caustic Window crossed with Squarepusher, really
mad-assed stuff. Apparently he has delivered three (three!) LPs to
Rephlex.
The single is great - really funky, crammed full of hard-disk recorded
blips and squeals and 'oooo' vocals. Theres a track with a mathemtical
equation as a name which is similar to the live track _Crappy_ but with
no acid in it. _Nannou_ finishes the 12" off - a beautiful melodious,
quiet track made from sampling an old music box Rich found. Great 12" -
promo copies have different artwork too.
New Squarepusher _Budakhan Mindphone_ is amazing too. I prefer it to
_Rotted_ its a bit less experimental. The opening track is really
beautiful, the rest are rhythmic and reverb'ed. One track has Toms live
bass controlling an analgue synth. Nice sleeve work that looks similar
to the _Quoth_ cover.
