what a fuckin' great cd, just bought it the other day, can't get enough of xtal
and i finaly figured out that saw stands for selected ambient works...
yes- i know i'm dumb, but i've also been told i'm cute and from what i've heard that's a good combination

my first post in this MB was about saw 85-92 (just wanted to say that)
yes its a masterpiece, a total reference in electronic music, since it was released.
my favourite is THA with no doubt

as in guest starring the band "no doubt" or just using the figure of speech (which happens to be very popular in detroit)???
j/k i'm sure i know what yer talkin' bout nacmat
and the way i've interpretted the cd "artistically" is an aphex twin cd that seems closer to the level of artistic expression that i'm at
except i haven't made any deals with the devil, george busch, or 'n'sync- so i'm sure my shit's no where as good as his
although for a cd i've never heard before it seems to have a rather odd effect on my music... several of the tracks use drum seqs or melodys that sound similar to some of my imxdmx tracks
yeah... that's about all i have to say

Tha, Xtal, Pulsewidth, Heliosphan, Schottkey 7th Path, Hedphelym... what a fucking album.
And I LOVE Ptolemy. It sounds so 80's and cheap, but it's wicked. Wicked!

my mom calls some of AFX's music 80s. Like i was listening to Cornish Acid and she walked up and said "What's this it sounds like 80s music". But i think you can't call AFX's music 80s anymore considering all the songs are either at 200 bpm with an infinate amount of snare rushes and samples or straight up piano tracks.

...anything is comparable imo- and i can see a lot of afx tracks that do strike me as very 80's synth-pop- and to be honest i don't really even see it as a bad thing,
because, if you think about it 80's synth pop is just another evolutionairy step directed to electronic music, and rap music, and current pop music- and forward into the future, where music will be so fucked up that a lot of us won't understand it any more, or won't have the capacity to "learn" to like the new music-
which is the reason why i hope to die young. not too young though.

SAW1 is way different than SAW2,everyone knows that...For me they both have special meanings,SAW1 is a collection of RDJ's earliest works on electronic music...SAW2 is a collection of a trip to Mars and back he did,its such an excellent ambient cd,sometimes I could listen to both cds to meditate,do some massages,have sex or just to do some thinking when stressed.....:)

really calming in a not-obvious way unlike say, whale song or tibetan chanting for example,
neither of which does it 4 me like xtal does :
