I got the RDJ-album for my birthday, and i was listening to that track on my new headphones today. And suddenly, in the middle of my walk home, I realized that i never thought much of this track. And then i notized that it atually is a really good track...i was almost touched to tears. This track rules.... well...small thoughts from a Junktion |

Did you cry when ET almost died? If smurfette was cast to play the role of ET, then I would've. If have to go on a long journey through a desert, be sure to bring an onion. If you get thirsty, just cut the onion on a cactus which will make your eyes watery, then you can drink your tears. They're salty though and you might want something sweet to go along with them, like twizzlers. |

It's a good song. It could almost be used for a videogame soundtrack...like at a boss stage or an overworld. |

you can't walk and listen to music or you think too much about walking. It's best to hit yourself in the head with a preferably large hammer to assure a successful lapse into unconsciousness before you listen to awesome mind wizardry like crunch's 2 album |

it was the first song by rdj that I ever heard.Could it start more beautilful? I still love the song with all my heart, but now,I also know it's brothers and sisters,wich I love very much too, But this will always remain a special song to me...... ..........snif.......... |

yeah. girl/boy-song is supah. it would also be cool if Philip Glass did an orchestrated version of it. |

That would be excellent Phresch. I have always thought that Aphex Twin should one day work with Ensemble Moderne. I think they would do it. They did "Yellow Shark" and they did "Music for 18 Musicians". I think they would definitely be willing to do a project with Aphex Twin. I think Kronos would be willing to do a collaboration with Aphex Twin also. Maybe one day we could be so blessed... |

my favourite afx song |

it is quite a nice little track - very pretty. It was the first one i really "got into" when I first started listening to aphex. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
it's that one which got me into aphex the most. my all-time fav |

Beautiful song, I like to play that alongside On. |
||||||||
|

That is one of THE defining electronic tracks. It's perfect, such a sweet balance... abrasive/pretty, girl/boy... Drukqs lacks this kind of magical track. |

Actually, i dont think much of it! not to be pessimistic, but notice that the drumm work is sloppy, and energyless. the classical instruments are pretty boring, compared to most other composers. personally i think "4" is so much better done. also, i once found a live version of girl/boy song, that had much more complex snare rushes! and it was great. much better than the original. |

4 is a very well put together track. My fave off RDJ has to be fingerbib. My heart cries everytime i hear it. Its one of those tracks where he manages to get down his emotions almost perfectly. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Fingerbib is good! Perhaps you should check out Kraftwerk if you like that song. =) |

Have done :) Trans europe express is my fave, although i havent heard that much by them, my dad is more in them than me. |

w M w you're making me crack up with your words of wisdom, strange that everyone else ignores them. As for Girl/boy song, its another classic, gotta love that song. Have you guys heard Radiohead live recordings?? that cd is freaking great, I've never heard Aphex live. hmm I can start a thread of whats the best concert, I think im gonna do it, just dont bash me for it. |
||||||||
|

|
|
Ah yes, great synth in trans europe express! i was thinking, you might want to investigate "man machine". theres a track there, "the model", (you´ve probably heard it, or of it), that sounds like fingerbib, with corny vocals! |
||||||||
|

|

Yeah that was my first Aphex song to. I love that track!!! It still gives me goose bumps sometimes. Have you guys heard the live version that starts evil and then goes back to normal? Roskilde 97 ? It comes after inkeys and the two mix perfect with each other. |

I recently heard that song in an ad for the special olympics..... |

Its in a short film to about two slackers. The song run trough the whole film. |

The first afx track i heard was Milkman, and liked it, so i got girl/boy, i had never heard anything like it before in my life. ive been an rdj fan ever since. god, such a good song, gives me fucking tingles every time i listen to it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
girl/boy song is classic RDJ, always gives me goosebumps when the beats crash over you toward the end after the break. i think the songs on RDJ album have such near perfect balance and contrast in compostion, something that the Drukqs beat tracks don't quite acheive, i think. |
||||||||

I've also got a life version of Girl/Boy, dont know where it was played cuz it came labeled "A live collection" but its alot better, with different drums and extended ending. U know when it gets all mellow and just fades out, well instead it goes on with the insturments for a bit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think thats the one i´m talking about! it is better right? i think the original drumms are weak, really.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i've heard the live recording. it's from roskilde '97 festival. IMO the beats in the original song fit the song better. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's my favorite track on The Richard D James Album |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Girl/Boy gives me goosebumps everytime at the end where the drums trrrrrrrrr away, and it leaves the srtings, then as it fades out they decend into a lower down notes and sound like they've really been played by an orchestra, and its incredible. |
