Aphex Twin’s “Vordhosbn” just got a surprising video reveal, showing how the track was made. So let’s revisit trackers and 90s underground music culture.

I missed this back in 2017, thanks! Expanding on the article’s mentions of favorites Autechre, Plaid, and Squarepusher…
Cylob writes his own software. I once suggested some cheap and interesting hardware to him that sounded like it would fit right in with his madness, he replied, “Sorry, that’s not how I work. I would just write a module to get that sound!”
Luke Vibert samples vintage records hidden away in libraries across the UK; his “Nuggets” series consists of some of his favorite tracks in their original form.
it might be obvious, but I love Cylob lol
