I'm going to my local cd store later today, and I only have enough $$ for one aphex cd, but I can't decide which one to get! help! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well do you like fast stuff, or slower minimal stuff? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
Get ICBYD, it's more diverse and coverse a much wider range of styles than the RDJ Album, but they're both good |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no- get rdj- because 4 is one of the best rdj tracks ever then get icbyd next weekend |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
get come to daddy instead :P |

ICBYD is a great album, RDJ is a good album... plus, it's always best to go chronological |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
You won't be disappointed with either, but I'd say RDJ album is a bit more manic than ICBYD. I got RDJ first, then ICBYD...I'm sure you won't be scarred for life if you get RDJ first. |
||||||||
|

|
|
RDj without a doubt!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I reckon RDJ first, its positively brimming with manic snare rush bonza fantastic |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like ICBYD better, but I'd go with RDJ first. That's how I did it and reckon it was a good route. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, go with the flow, spoonz: RDJ album. it's probably my all time favourite aphex album besides saw85-92. fast, furious and deliciously manic. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it depends on whether you want something manic or a little mellower. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
go with ICBYD. then you won't have to buy another record for eight months. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
RDJ album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sell your soul for $20 then buy both (ICBYD will give you more for yer money :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I would say RDJ first, but only because ICBYD is so good. I think it's important to experience ICBYD during a very positive point in your life, and I think you'll know when the time is right. ICBYD is one of those "desert island" albums, for me anyway...satisfying the whole way through (though "come on you slags" sucks) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
RDJ album is near perfection... ICBYD seems to please those who like mellower stuff (they tend to hate Ventolin anyway), but is still fucking good.... and so is SAW 1 and SAW 2 and Surfing on Sine Waves... its all damn good, and essential! you will need all of them in the next few months......... |

none of aphex "sucks". you will learn this much in good time , my child. ;D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's all in my opinion; no offence was intended. i've heard plenty of aphex, and I personally think quite a bit of it "sucks," though the good aphex is quite good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
SAW2 changed my life forever though. acquire it, and enjoy it particularly whenever you have free time to experiment with sleep patterns. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
get both |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, just rob someone for the cash, or sell your body. ICBYD was my first aphex, and its still my favorite.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
both albums are great, but i prefer ICBYD. you can't go wrong with either one. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ICBYD might be better value for money quantity wise...plus it complies a lot of the early stuff..though RDJ if it is the version with Boy/Girl EP tacked on at the end...that's a very good deal... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ICBYD always seems to stay around my top Aphex Twin albums... It was my second Aphex purchase, but I wanted it as my first... Although the RDJ album is great, ICBYD is just on another level... definately get ICBYD!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ICBYD is just fucking excellent. it really does sound fresh to me, even after three years. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i lika da RDJ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i tend to prefer the rdj album to icbyd... the latter just has to many tracks that get boring after a while at least the rdj album's lesser tracks are pretty short |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

First off I will point out the fact that besides me having MTV's AMP that got me into aphex because of the boy/girl song being from the RDJ album ICBYD was my first straight up RDJ anything, probably still my favorite today next to drukqs and saw 85-92, and maybe afx ab3. that doesn't mean i don't like windowlicker, ctd, RDJ or saw v2. I like them both, everything has a time and a place. That doesn't mean I'm not crazy it just means that i'm too lazy to be anything but chill. I'm still crazy, i just hold it inside and let it fester into uncontrolable fits of insanity all the time. It's gotten to the point now where I can't even tell the difference anymore like I do crazy shit without even thinking.. or wait, maybe it's becuase I am crazy? not even drugs can help me! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Shit, tough one. I think the RDJ Album is slightly better... SLIGHTLY... but I Care Because You Do is so perfect... I don't know. I can't fucking decide. They're equal. Forget what I said above, I'm just tired. |
