Aphex Classics: Who else likes it?

Anyone else here into classics?
Frankly, I think it's great--very interesting stuff that
doesn't get much attention. :|

Also, does it strike anyone as having a timeless quality to
it? Tracks like analogue bubblebath and phloam, and tamphex
are perfect 10's.

me...

some of his best work

it's great album. it has some standout tracks, and those are
the ones who are among his best work, truly classics:

digeridoo, polynomial-c, analogue bubblebath 1, isopropanol,
dodeccaheedron

album.

'polynomial c' is one of my favourite aphex tracks ever.
simple, beautiful and melancholic. In fact I think I'll
listen to it right away...

I am also listening to the album induced by this thread

definately one of my fave aphex albums because of the
nostalga it triggers

polynomial c and metapharstic are great, the latter because
of the images of a warehouse rave that come to mind where
they are playing music far too loud for the sound system to
handle and the speakers are going into meltdown and
squleching

island Gotland in southern sweden riding my bike along the
coast.. aaaaah...

yeah polynomial-c does it for me. i bought the xylem tube
and digeredoo EPs on vinyl a while back, love them. great
music for playing in cars.

It's the first album I bought of mr. James and I still play
it quite a lot. If I hadn't bought it, I'd wear sleak design
jeans and probably a lot of hairwax along with a gold
necklace and a slightly tilted baseballcap.

I would have been a R'n'B victim if it wasn't for 7\phex!

*starts singing:*

Classics was my first love...

was kinda dissapointed tho, not my favorite type of
aphex....

don't forget Phloam.....although it's kinda retro (which
doesn't have to be a disadvantage in itself though) it's
good (IMO)

haha... I did the same as nacmat - I ran inside the public
library here in my town, got some really nice cds... great
getting them at the library for free!

I don't really like it, although it does hold some nice
memories for me. It seems...too amuturish now.

yea, some of the first aphex i'd heard... after ICBYD. i
remember hearing it over the summer a while back... i must
have been about 10 or 11, come to think of it.... i really
liked analogue bubblebath at the time

and then i saw it in a record store in spain at a cheap
price, and i just had to buy it... although i agree, it
seams so amature and cheesy now...

This makes me remember my good old days when I could be a
kid and be carefree and not have to worry about
responsibility, sadly these days are gone

:(

I really love this whole album
