aphex twin interview moscow 1994 part 1

[snehesten]

Looks like it was either answer the questions, or going on "vacation" in sibiria

[OTCOCIAMERICA]

Он убитый походу наглухо этот журналист!

[EINabiIo]

Lol. It looks like he went to the toilet and you found him there with nothing else in mind then interviewing.

[mayathebe]

he feels under a lot of pressure. highly intelligent low in emotional growth, give it more time it ll be understanding/emotional. because the discomfort shows he needs understanding himself.

[AlthoughNotAFollower]

@mayathebe Thanks Freud.

[everynickistaken1]

he got over a bug, that could explain his tired look in this interview

[geogaddi669]

I think he acts so strange because he feels different from most other people, he's in his own little world. I think he's also probably far more intelligent than his interviewers, and he sees the entire interview as something he just HAS to do for public relations. There are many celebrities who don't particularly relish giving interviews.

[loqloqIoqloqIoq]

He es cute

NO HOMO

[CoolColJ]

@loqloqIoqloqIoq - yes Homo ;)

[Kainlarsen]

What an awkward interview... Richard is a strange man.:D

[SouthernSky]

this video freaks me out more than the rubber johnny video. creepy, drugged, kgb, zombies.

[Polaf3456]

Reasons this interview was hella weird

1. Richard was trippin bawls

2. Richard was feeling extra awkward that day

3. The interviewers sucked dick

4. Richard was trippin bawls

[leebeer]

THIS IS THE WORST INTERVIEWER EVER`! NO WONDER APHEX DOESNT BOTHER ANYMORE. THE QUESTION ABOUT THE HAIR IS SO STUPID .

[indagadir]

Ёбаный стыд!

Fucking shame!

[zunaout]

this made me feel sorry for him but cracked me up at the same time :| =))

[PatrikBerlin09]

I hope it is realized that...this is one of the most important interviews on the internet.

[ugetdownfrmthere]

my fucking gawd i hate non-english speaking people



[65patz]

He's trying. This is just a really awkward situation. Doing better than most people would. It reminds me a lot of the interviews with Roger Waters and David Gilmour from the Pompeii movie.

[brennavk]

this is hilarious

[EnjoyTheSurface]

single-worded answers are the best ;)

[ultraviolence6655321]

I am guessing the interviewer was three feet tall.

[imydaking]

this looks like a prison interrogation lol

[sixamsedna]

@imydaking lmfao, that made me laugh, so true

[nelson2k]

he doesn't look too happy.... LOL

[BSlegt]

The Artist

[TheAPC91]

That interviewer stands infront of an true living legend. Dont just listen to his music, instead try to make your own music...only then, you will realise how much of an genius richard james really is! Anyway, the questions, his attitude...Its a shame man! I would give my balls, AND MY DICK, to have ONE FUCKING CHANCE to met this guy! And this guy screws it up AND bores him so much?? Fuckin retard. That shit pisses me off god damnit!!!!!!

[Gameboygenius]

@TheAPC91 "And this guy screws it up AND bores him so much??" There was no chance of sex with the interviewer. Simple as that. Watch watch?v=TnelbLU_Izc for example. A good-looking girl who is also actually into the scene and gets what Aphex is talking about, and clearly wants to have sex with him every second of the interview. That's a GOOD interview.

[shivayavoda]

@TheAPC91 chill dude, it has happened it 1994, he wasn't that huge back in the day at all.. also, your balls are more valuable that an interview trust me

[iJelly]

@shivayavoda %D

[123ubuntu666]

Probably the most funny comments I have ever viewed on youtube.

Free Richard James.

[djcondra]

hahahahahahha

[KungFuChess]

looks like an interrogation before theyre about to be behead him

[ChampionAnwar]

FREE RICHARD DAVID JAMES!!

[PersecutorPL]

this interview never cease to amaze me. astonishing piece of journalism!

[UnitedStatesOfSpange]

This guy does too much of everything

[sparkidee]

Worst interview ever! Richard looks very bored and looks like he is in some grotty interigation room. If your going to interview someone at least learn their language! bloody russians!

[bcbowar50]

This is reminds of Family Guy. "Hey passengers, this is Quagmire...ughhhh....gonna be leaving shortly ughhh...."

[UnitedStatesOfSpange]

@bcbowar50 complete fail

[joyfrequency]

fuck those russian guys r silly.... i speak the language so yeh the translation from them and everythings fucked....so wrong....all because they fooled their minds and created a fucked up reality for themselves...

[TheOneartist]

@joyfrequency Yeah, I know. The process here is tedious, and they're having a hard time wording the questions.

At least they're fans, though. Let's cut them some slack. This probably ended up in a Russian-language article anyway.

[KillSwitch2]

Looks like a fuckin interrogation.

[Godamatic]

It sounds like the interviewers smoked a bunch of russian crack before the interview. "In Soviet Russia Crack Cocaine Smokes YOU!"

[chree2008]

how the hell is the longest, most in depth conversations with him are these fucking idiots. Russia must be really fucked.

[Repsaj100]

borat is interviewing him.

[antimental]

this is making me lol cause he looks so goddamn irritated

[hazymelancholic]

ppphhhh... look like they goin' to kill him bt tortue!

[XFizzxX]

DJ... I would of spit at the guy xD!

[underflymail]

Why the batshit is this guy as impressing in an interview as his music. Its creepy, yet stunning. Awesome artist.

[oswalddeath]

Стоп поклонение Ричарда чертов американский.

[oswalddeath]

Эта британская сумка схватки, наконец, получил подругу оставить его в покое вас с ума американских поклонников.

[NVGmusic]

АХАХХАХАХАХАХ

[TheRiotousMind]

It bugs to hell when interviewers classify electronic music as "DJ'ing". Go to hell.

[IpswichTilliDie1]

One of the most boring and pointless interviews of all time lol

[9snaker]

couldn't he wrote down his questions, so it could get translated BEFORE they did the interview??? stupid russians -.-

[cebzer]

what a wanker.



[9snaker]

@cebzer

the russian?

[gilesbh06]

wow, the worst interview in the history of time

[geogaddi669]

@gilesbh06 I think this is one of the best interviews ever, because it's not like all the rest of them.

@Kainlarsen Of course Richard is perceived as a strange man, because he's a genius of high calibre, and he knows it. Also, he's been quite the center of attention from his early teens, and I suspect he's done a fair amount of psychedelic drugs. And the British electronic music scene isn't known for having the most regular of folks.

[man1in2a3box]

@gilesbh06 best

[man1in2a3box]

@gilesbh06 *best

[Flipolopolis]

FREE RICHARD!!!!!

[kw1ksh0t]

He has exactly the same voice as Squarepusher

[joebstarsurfer]

hes so difficult Come to daddy!.

[metalolommusic]

translation sux ass!

[metalolommusic]

translation sux ass!

[AwesomeCoasters]

Nice festival, really. When it comes to british electronic music artists, Aphex Twin is pretty much the biggest and the best interview background these depressing bores could think off was this white wall. I'm thinking this isn't a real festival after all.

[zief81]

yikes!

[Kaste101]

oh my god, there is 3 parts? fuck water torture...make people watch this shit...

[Nuclearbones]

He looks like he's about to fall asleep

xD

[BigBagsForRent]

What a couple of queer sounding Russian faggots.

[TheBearEzentials]

Aphex Twin is so energetic and charismatic. He needs to take a chill pill, and calm down from all the high energy he is exuding.

[sean2me]

Fantastic, looks like he really wanted to be there! He is awesome!

[necking1]

look at him! he s scared!!! )))))) the first time afx is scared of the uneducated reporter))))

[AnthonyDavid94]

303 thumbs up!!!

[b00y4kk4]

epic fail interview #LOL

[TheTrancemaster90]

KGB captured him!!!

[coolshit28]

Worst interview in history lol.

[JurkenFilm]

this such an absurdely funny video. This shall now be called art.

[Sikabo]

@JurkenFilm lol u so right

[silentpair]

they seem to have the same producer as the iraq beheading videos.this has a "last known photo" vibe all over it.

[axolotl84]

haha what the fuck is this

[Vaselineum]

the interviewer seems to be on heroin at the moment

[ProzacPie]

Should be called AFX fucked on drugs ....He spits at 20 seconds and its just awkard from then on man.

[TytanowaSzafkaNaButy]

...

[EldeoSoul]

This is creepy as fuck.

[trulynot]

@EldeoSoul Dude you know its a setup if you consider any of Aphex's other work. ;o) This guy loves the creepy

[petitemasochist]

Is he stoned? Lol

[michal23pl]

did they finally chop his head off? I'm afraid to watch till the end.

[877dude]

@michal23pl from russia mob)

[xinjinbei]

1:50

haha what, the russian guy translated "I only make music for myself" and "What the press says is irrelevant" into "I don't make the music myself" and "uhh the press exaggerates stuff or something"

[coolshit28]

Worst interview in history lol. Both interviewer and interviewee suck!

[estreet2007]

@coolshit28 bitch just die

[JohnBigmon]

Were they fucking with him?!?

[Etlos1]

OMG i would've been so pissed!! How can he talk to one of the biggest pioneers of electronic music like that!? And then speaking russian while he must wait for a new stupid question!? omfg...

[CrimsonEmpire]

god what a TERRIBLE interview.

[MRMATRONIC]

ha he looks genuinely pissed off with this interview

[crookedmelody1]

Whoa, James is a badass

[LuciferianDemon]

fuck yeah this guy is the best since techno went retro. not bad for a dumb interview thou this guy is too loud,

wes up

[antistar1000]

You Russian bastards! Let him go! So this is why we haven't heard new material from him in several years - some breakaway Russian terrorist group has kidnapped him. This video is sick and will be upsetting to his family and his fans but it's good to see he is good health, if a little uncomfortable but of course that is to be expected. I don't know what bargaining power they can get out of holding an electronic music pioneer in captivity but we urge you, whoever you are: Please let him go!

[xakk15]

C'est cool. Nagyesszep, haven't you ever been around other language? It requires a little natural patience. This is amazing footage!

[negativenetwork]

this is fucking stupid.

[hepalphabet]

in soviet russia aphex twin interviews you

[automap]

Aw, he's 23 here.

[Madulitka]

афекс сидит и думает: "ты наркоман штоле, сука!"

у переводчика голоса в голове. и вообще все упоротые кроме ричарда. ричард срёт кирпичами. это пиздец! вторую часть смотреть не стал - стыдно!

[gloopzik]

At 1:47 the translator completely screws up the translation. What he relays to the interviewer is not at all what Richard said. I'm Russian and I'm blushing like crazy watching this!

[SchussFilms]

Richard is very shy. lol.

[protobuddha]

@SchussFilms he's not shy, he is pissed off for the heavy mental retardation of this pseudo-interview

[TheLiesette]

its like he understood something they said at 3:21 and got nervous....

[aciddrop77]

KGB grabbed Richard and interrogated.

[DirtyRottenJayyy]

ahh this is what i expected an aphex interview to be like :D

[TexRitters]

Richard gets carted off to the Gulag after the interview.

[iwannabeyourdog90]

seems so odd to me, that in aphex written interviews, not on youtube, he's so much more of an excentric person, - also quite willing to talk...its kind of sad, that he's just this open-minded about his stuff behind the camera

[TheAPC91]

Even in moments like that, hes still respectful, and a really nice person! Hes just a amazing artist! In my opinion, the best electronic artist we ever had on this planet! I mean listen to his stuff! Its a shame calling his stuff techno, to me its pure art, out of long complicated session nights!

[tabber87]

I kept waiting for them to scream something in Arabic and saw his head off...

[samealalan]

hang on rich, were coming to break you out of there, just don't let them break your faith, were on our way!

[MrFunnyTi]

Это не интервью, а п...ц

Левый интервюер просто удолб.... таким удолбам и интервью не стоит давать.

[bobbygnosis]

Having seen far too many Chris Cunningham videos,

I see a creepy puppet doing an excellent job of pretending to be Richard.

[Trollfacer]

He looks like he doesnt want to be there at all.

[BenNCM]

he looks cool as fuck!

[Mindphaser76]

They`ve got him handcuffed to the radiator.

[MrBratkenSolov]

*facepalm*

Ёбаный стыд/Fucking shame

[rocaho001]

@MrBratkenSolov typaruluy interviewer skaju, vot dibil haha

[eRiBuSmAn]

why do people automatically think richard is "on acid" or "on a trip"? because he makes and writes some amazing electronic music, it doesnt mean he is off his face all the time! he is simply being patient in this interview, yes he may seem bored, thats about it.

[macintosser]

Haha... what a weird interview... I like the "flow";-) Very "smooth", I'm sure.

[russianvoodoo]

I'm sure that this interview influenced him to make Come to daddy and all the other things.

Looks like they all having a bad trip together.

[eruseron]

this must be a FUCKING JOKE! Putine, arrest these morons and send them to siberia to get fucked by bears or something....

[xploshun1337]

@eruseron

lol you're not psychotic at all

[eruseron]

@xploshun1337 just a bit impuslive at times, thing is, I thought the image was funny... but c'mon, this kind of interview should be banned by the Geneva conventions.

[85jamesr]

For as long as this interview is, they've only asked a handful of questions, hes only given a handful of answers. The video was cut short due to a massive power outage, during which Rubber Johnny came into the rescue. The interviewers, translators, and armed guards where all found dead.

[djmosquimusprice]

HE´S BORED.HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHH.

[decafry]

да отвалите от него, два дауна!

[ketanovas]

The translator is as crappy as my shit.

[niggative]

The interviewers seem jet-lagged themselves lol.

Not only terrible english, but also terrible Russian =)

Richie is obviously trippin somewhere else, can't believe he is as calm and kind as that. =)

[HomerShipman]

lol.,he looks jet-lagged 2 fuck!

[4Brownie4]

he was caught by the KBG.. they wanted to know everything about richard's planet

[jahmariposa]

free richard d james!!!!!!!

[jahmariposa]

its really awkward

[professorquack]

they caught the bed intruder!

[dagoduga6]

is he handcuffed??

[conzor9898]

maybe he's rolling

[opti95]

@conzor9898 or hes extremely tired and doesn't want to be there, but i think he could possibly be extremely high as well, i have been high like that before, just drowsy and extremely bored by everything.

[conzor9898]

@opti95 possibly!

[mikeofiveschu]

is like a hostage video

[mynthon11]

@mikeofiveschu

LOLLLLLLLLLLLLL , youre right

[NewYorkDontLoveMe]

@mikeofiveschu hahaha Richards actually chained to a radiator.

[Donnie2020]

he kinda scares the crap out of me haha!

[HoldingWay]

He just looks bored off his nut

[PantherFox]

They don't seem to know a lot about his music or the artist himself. He just seems terribly bored

[sonicbenj78]

No wonder Richard doesn't do interviews anymore? Fuck me... Poor bastard!

[nagyesszep]

:D :D what the fuck is this?? is it somekind of interrogation? 

[killemonkey]

@nagyesszep HAHAHAHAH sorry dude, i was laughing as i went to click thumbs up on ur comment and i clicked thumbs down and now i cant thumbs down. oops lol

[Dogboy73]

@nagyesszep LOL. Looks that way doesn't it. Is someone out of shot aiming a rifle at his head?!

[Kapo465]

@nagyesszep lololol, its cooler when you can understand the russian. But the way he looks around lol

[tolstoythegreat]

can anyone else see the light emitting from his head?

[4516n41]

Its so hard to listen to this ;)

[zwerty007]

It was like he was back against the wall with them all poking him to see how he would react (metaphorically)

[76hoffman]

lost in translation

[FreedomBeats]

More of an interrogation than an interview!

[SShinX2off]

that translator was terrible!

[brittanygotspockets]

this is poop yo.

i really love how kneecapped1000 posted "i thought the interview sounded crisp!" and Monday said "What a crap interview." laaawl.

[belokopytovify]

Переводчик и журналист, это два долбаеба .

[Musiccalculater]

i LOL when i think of how pissed of richard d james is !

too funny ! .

[Brom24]

The interview is doubly bad cause of the translator. What the hell is up with his voice? Does he have a headache or something? RDJ is way more patient than I would have expected.

[omikra]

@Brom24 well their russian so my guess would be that he's drunk on vodka!!!!

[nimand]

@Brom24 the worst thing about translator is that he isn't one. It's just a man who knows English a little bit, like me, for example.

Another bad thing about all that interview is a person who actually asks questions. I do understand that he worries a lot but his questions are silly and pointless.

The whole interview looks like examination instead of real interview where you communicate with your partner.

[Multiply187]

i fucking love the amount of hatred and loathing in his voice.Couldnt watch the interview though its a fucking mind torture.im from russia btw

[ziggyhuys]

He lookedl ike he was gonna puke on the mic!

[kneecapped1000]

I thoguht the interview sounded crisp!

[ivionday]

what a Crap interview
