Save your energy -- it's a complete fake. I don't know why so many people readily accepted "melodies from mars" as authentic: it doesn't sound like Aphex at all, not old Aphex, not new Aphex, not anywhere-in-between Aphex. Some joker thought "Gee, most of the old aphex tracks aren't that complicated; I bet I could re-write some of em and pass it off as everyone's fav underground techno boffin!" I suppose the full gig of aphex rarities floating around the Net isn't enough for some rabid-fan types, and so began the MFM hype. N. PS AB5 is real tho. :) On 16 Jan 2000 "benjib" wrote:
