No. I had drinks last week with an A&R guy from Warners, and his
comments were "his stuff is already recorded, even if it doesn't sell
huge, it doesn't need to to make money."
Warners has traditionally carried acts much weirder than Aphex Twin
for years. The bands that get dropped are the ones that get a big
advance to record, and then don't sell enough records to cover the
advance.
His only other comment on Mr. James is that he was 'totally
uncooperative' with promotion.
