compositions...

icbyd version, simply because it's the original.

rich said he always wanted it to be done with a real
orchestra, but didnt have the resources

I agree with Zeus on this one. I was thinking the exact same
thing - more powerfull, more urgent.

he wrote it in mind for an orchestra, and the only thing
that can sound right when you write for an orchestra, is an
orchestra.

sure, there is some cool sounds in the original, but the
true feelings come out in the orchestration

glasshole

since ICBYD has the "edit" of icct hedral, has there ever
been a full length version? i wonder how long THAT one is?

I have ICBYD and agree Icct is a great track, but I don't
believe I've ever heard this 'glass' version. What's that
one from? I have about 6 or 7 AT albums, but don't recall
that song on any of them... though with his track naming
"method", it's hard to tell. ;)

I think the production quality is better on the Glass, but
the synth is cool on ICBYD. Hmmm, I'll go with them both.

Here's a tip: Think of your scariest moment while listening
to the ICBYD version. It makes you relive it again!

mm.. that would be the period when I was having massive
panic attacks.. I was kind of weirded (weirded, not wired)
out of my head, had 'wax the nip' on repeat and was reading
Harry Potter & the philosophers stone.

oh.. weird days..

is it really? SHIT!

I bought the 12" under above said presumption and I don't
even have a recordplayer..

mm in warpmart it says 'icct hedral' on the cd, no mention
of Philip Glass. they don't have the 12" now, but I can
clearly remember it saying 'icct hedral (Philip Glass
orchestration)'. I think it says the same in the
'explore'-section here..

aw you poor guy. well the singles collection cd is
ridiculously expensive - it's one of the few aphex twin
releases i don't own. the donkey rhubarb cd ep is out of
print but it can't be all that hard to find, i recommend you
keep an eye out for it.

I like the ICBYD versions... the weird hisses and static or
whatever it is reminds me of death or something. Feels like
I'm trapped in a coffin, suffocating. And any song that
gives me mental images like that is A-OK!

they're both good, probably the phillip glass orchestration
is a tad better though... this track always makes me picture
a vampire of some sorts rising from it's coffin then
creeping around in the darkness looking for it's next victim
