Conjecture, etc.

The article states, "James took full advantage of the advances in computing between 1996 and 2001, which allowed greater detail and frenetic complexity in his music." This statement seems purely speculative. Did RDJ himself say this or is it some fanatic's conjecture? This is exactly the kind of pretentious writing that RDJ is right to mock. Same goes for the silly interpretations of the meaningless album title. Globe199 22:03, 4 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

its less speculation than saying the track 'taking control' features a concussor drummachine heavily...... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.151.132.234 (talk) 23:19, 16 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

I also heard that instead of feet, he has another set of hands and he uses these to assist him with drum programming - 211.30.227.30 (talk) 10:25, 6 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

Cornish translations

Does anyone know who originally stated the English meaning of the Cornish titles, or who actually did the translation? Are there any sources which attribute the translations instead of merely repeating them as fact? There are not very many Cornish speakers out there. Lfh (talk) 20:15, 24 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Personnel section

This section should be added so the article can be rated a C or B like it deserves. Zidane tribal (talk) 06:43, 1 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Also on this note, there is a female singer in "Mt Saint Michel + Saint Michaels Mount". I doubt Richard sampled it from anywhere but his own original recordings. A-bdub (talk) 17:09, 14 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

DrukQs

Because the proper capitization of the album is "DrukQs", somebody should move the article.

Conkern65 (talk) 18:27, 6 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

There is plenty of evidence at the album's official site that the title should not use a capitalized Q.

  • Note the page title is "Aphex Twin -- drukqs"
  • At the bottom of the page the url is listed as "drukqs.net"
  • Mousing-over the "p" in Aphex reveals "Drukqs video"
  • Mousing-over the "n" in Twin gives a link to buy the album [1]. Note that it is spelled 'Drukqs'.

Also, while I think there is a possibility that the "drug use" pun was intentional, the interview cited in the article shows that he won't admit it readily. Ulmanor (talk) 01:47, 10 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Might need something stronger than 'additional citations'

A good chunk of the article reads like fan-forum conjecture connected by Script error: No such module "Unsubst". tags. The talk page reads like Richard D. James watches you while you sleep and whispers secrets about his recordings, which makes me even more skeptical. What the hell?

Bass Guitar?

He's credited as the bassist for this album, which struck me as odd. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.146.47.28 (talk) 20:24, 21 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Ratings

It's fine to have twelve ratings in the ratings table. Cambial foliar❧ 04:11, 23 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

PlayerPro

Article can use expansion on the means of recording for GA breadth. Here is a source on how the artist used PlayerPro for this album, though there are likely better sources for this. czar 11:44, 15 January 2025 (UTC)Reply
