gotcha... I like Audax Powder cause it seems to be almost sarcastic sounding. Like that one loop is in there to poke fun at house music.

I don't like Surfing on Sine Waves...Audax Power is good, one other track is nice, the rest mostly bores me...

Its a fight between Audax Powder and track 7 for me. Audax Powder was one of my favorites when I first started getting into Aphex, and it still up there definetly.

Queno-Phec really is a great ambient track, it goes with the album cover perfectly.
Listening to it really loud with my good headphones, I can just see the sun rising over on the beach over those little cliffs, with a surfer riding a wave in the distant background... ahhhhhh yes

If it really is me is definetly quality, great chill track. I like to sit back and puff away while listening to it, great smokin song, those piano riffs are so groovy.

the first track is such a great opener, really nice synth and high hat work, (is it me or does it sound like some odd pitch shifting happening on one of the synths at 3.03 into the track?)
quoth-listen to that kickdrum supremacy II- "let's see if we can make it a little easier"

P.S
how could I have forgotten about "quixote"... nice filtering on the Bline, and what about the reverb on that squelch, and that fucking organ line, almost hypnotic

I love Polygon Window, and Audax Powder is pretty good (although that one synth that is repeated over and over is just so damn annoying after a while)
If It REally Is Me is great, and Untitled, Quioxte (sp?), Portreach Harbour, and Quino Phec are all good!!!

polygon window is good, why didn't i mention it before. Audax Powder is pretty good, yeah. why on earth did he release 'Quoth' as the single for the album?

Audax Powder is really good, so is Supremacy and If It Really is Me... but Quoth sucks the big one... really horrible choice for a single, doesn't represent the album well at ALL.

I really love em all....one of fave AFX albums, seems to hang together really well....
Released before he hit the BIG BIG TIME so I guess he put a but more care into it....I dunno, it sounds like it to me....
(PW itself is probably my least fave....heard too much of it on that AI comp which I seemed to play non-stop for a few months....NOW that is an compilation that has dated a lot; have a listen now and you'll see what I mean)...
"we have to make a deal to find out who he is not...." - that song is total heaven; if you could wear out a CD by overlaying it, my copy would be almost blank....

What's peoples feeling about the 2 extra tracks?....
Nice, I feel, but not up to the standard of the rest of SOSW....can't help feeling that WARP re-released with those just for the cash....
Still, I shouldn't complain....at least we got some new old AFX....(but I bet there are a lot of other PW stuff...I know he's mentioned the possibility of releasing em in the past so maybe one day they will see the light of day....)....
