I haven't noticed a topic about this album before.... I haven't got this one... When I look at the sleeve I get the strange feeling that it isn't a real aphex twin album for some reason... But ehm, what do you think of this one? Should I go out and buy it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
YES!!!!! ITS GREAT! |
||||||||
|

i don't dig it personally...toooo much x0x drum machine. anyways...i'd at least give it a few listens...good rythms, even thought they are 606, 808, and 909. |

actually, if you want to get blown away from a harsher cd that you'll never discard from your cd player (if you like slightly harsher stuff), get "making orange things" by venetian snares/speed ranch, off of planet mu. i can't stop praising this cd...easly one of the best i have listened to ever. |

I'm listening to it as we speak. Not bad I'd say. A lot os nice old AFX techniques. Indeed there is a lot of X0X but the way he uses them is sublime. definately worth getting. |

Its definitly a important release for x0x series equipment IMO. Play a CD like this to remind me how great they were/are. If your a RDJ fan, get this CD. |

I think it's one of his best...some great dark Acid/Ambient moments in there... & all the tracks work so well together...it was really his first album (as SAWI was really a collection of older tracks)... I'm trying to think of somethng bad about it but i really can't... |
||||||||

I just bought the re-release so as to get the new tracks ( I have the vinyl from the first time round :o) ) they are not bad either. Not very strong but like jand says they all fit together well. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
i dont really like it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

apart from quino-phec. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you can see why those 2 tracks were left off originally...they're not as good as the others...more GAK like that anything (different sort of vibe...) I guess it was a mini-money spinner for WARP tho...I know I bought another copy just to get em...kinda kinky behavior but it's 2 new old AFX tracks so you can't complain really... |

Excactly! I just found out that the CD version of AB4 has an extra track too. Fuck should I buy it just for 24seconds of slurred speach? I need help. I have been colecting is stuff since the day I heard it back in '92. Does nayone know if there is an AFX ANONYMOUS please....... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
'If It Really Is Me" is pretty good too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what do you mean by "anonymus afx"?? i dunno if it´d be worth it only for the speech - i got it and it´s funny, but no must-have imo, really ... |
||||||||

doki: Quernstone was referring to Alcolics Anonymous for people addcited to alcohol...do you have that in Germany?... Quern: this place is a good as any as a home for AFX Anon...I'm in the same boat... and I love that "If it really is me" track...it's so simple but sooo beautiful & hypnotic... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this was my first afx album, and i love it, its properly chilled and its deffinetly worth buying!!!! |
||||||||
|
|

how old is that CD? it has always been a special order for me, but costs way too much to import, if it is still even available. |
||||||||
|

My name is Quernstone I'm 26 and I come from Padova. I have a problem I would like to share with you all......... That quino-phec track is so sawII. Don't you think? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sawII eh? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, RDJ has re-used stuff on several releases. I think this track is a pre-cursor the sawII stuff. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh? ok |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh jand - i got it, hehe ... yeah we have something like that here, too, BUT NOT FOR AFX :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
is the tracklist of saw II on this website the real one? cuz I thought both discs had 12 tracks |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
See the bonus tracks at the bottom. "Hankie" is also on the UK version. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok thanks |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

of the two new tracks on SOSW I think Portreach Harbour is great, but the other one isn't quite as good... SOSW is good, but not great in my opinion... I like it better then SAWII, but I would probably say it's his second worst release... I just can't get into SAWII at all... |
||||||||

I personally like the album a ton. Audax Power is a really nice track, if you want to here one before purchasing it. I'd grab this one if I were you, I mean c'mon it's RDJ. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, I'm not too big on SAWII either. I really like Cliffs a ton, but that's about it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this is a beautifull and underrated album. non of its tracks looks bad or weak to me |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
with such great tracks as Audax Powder, If it Really is Me, track 7(untitled), and Quino-Phec, it's a must for any RDJ fan |

I keep cheating on myself having affairs with attractive thoughts in persuasive clothing running around naked with strangers and netting like spiders a thought stuck on fly paper.......THE BARON HAS SPOKEN |
