I don't hear a lot about this release. I just downloaded it recently, both parts, and so far I've grown on it much more quickly (instantly, for the most part) than any other RDJ release. It feels much different from his other works, more...rich somehow, I want to say. Definitely much more consistent than pretty much anything else, except perhaps RDJ album, which I thought was good but not his best. |

I love HAB 1&2. Theres just nothing much to say about them, except that they both kick a lot of ass... |

:) true, true. they speak for themselves. in topics regarding "Best Aphex Release EVER" I always see a lot of Richard D. James Album and i care because you do. I normally side with the ICBYD crowd, but now I'm starting to really love HAB in all its shortness. |

HAB is somewhere in top 5 RDJ releases... |
||||||||
|

It's definitely got a unique feel, and unique production. It's great, and Everyday and Arched Maid are two of his most emotional tracks, I think. All of them are great, except Children Talking. That just gets on my nerves... :-/ |

I think they should do a rerelease of HAB on cd. That would be nice. HAB 1&2 on one cd...I'm gettin tired of the mp3's, the damn records cost $150+. Damn limited releases... |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Yes, definitely! It makes no damn sense to me... I think RDJ doesn't want them re-released, and Warp can't do it without his blessing... Richard, you wanker. |

i dig HAB...a really great release from rdj... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Even if they don't ever re-release them they should at least make 1000 more copies of each... |
||||||||
|

i like custodian discount a lot and arched maid as well |
||||||||
|

I love those releases. They should re-release them. Mybe they could make some changes for the 2ed, so that the originals still have high value? |
||||||||

these two ep's are wonderfull, i have never thought of one bad think bout these, always very happy to listen to them... only bad pouint??? too short!!! must couple it on cdr with RDJ album.... |
||||||||
|

where can i get any format of these lads? i first heard tracks from them in a mix by DJ Aura over at warprecords.com...mixed in with squarepusher. i only found out they were from HAB after a year of loving this mix...mad!!!...."mash p o t a t o e s" |

$150? I paid under EUR40 a couple of weeks ago. It's great. I'd listened to the mp3's for ages but the real thing just sounds SO much better. I dunno why, feels deeper or something. Pity it's pressed at 33rpm though, because when you play it at 45rpm it's just toooo fast. Squarepusher's untitled is pressed at 45rpm and listening to it at 33 is really cool cos you can hear all the intricate details of his tracks. |

they kick ass, some of RDJ's most solid works imo... Arched Maid via RDJ is one of my top 5 aphex tracks fo sho |
||||||||
|

wow! many of you seem to like "Arched Maid Via RDJ" which is my least favourite on this album. conversely, I like "Children Talking" probably the best, with "Custodian Discount" up there as well. I also find "Wabby Legs" to be the most emotional of this release. I tend to differ in musical opinions with many on this message board, which is a bit odd since we listen to the generally the same artists and releases. |

What about Laughable Butane Bob?!? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Arched Maid Via RDJ is my favorite from number two, and hangable auto bulb is my favorite from part one. I love every single track, though. |

I like it but there's that "rushed" feel that was there in RDJ. yes, I realise that it's drill'n'bass, so it's fast, but it feels like it's running as fast as it can. I think the best drill'n'b is the stuff that's fast but sorta lilts along too, with a couple layers of pace going on. "freeman, hardy, & willis acid" for example. "custodian discount" too. oh "start as you mean to go on" is a really good example, though it's just fast beatbox programming, not really drill and bass. |
||||||||

|
|
yeah, I love start as you mean to go on, and I think that and the d-scape might have been some of the earliest initiators of the drill and bass styles we see more of today |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
d-scape? is that the term for this layering I described? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no, it's a track from the 1993 on ep |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i like laughable butane bob |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
odd, I think the US version is bastardised, because my copy has the original "on", "73yips", "xepha" and the reload mix of "on" |
