Hmm, well maybe its just the reletive newness of it to me (although i had heard about 1/3rd of the tracks before buying), but it seems to me that this is Richard's best work...! The piano tracks are all great, and although gwarek 2 messed with my head a little, the overall experience was incredible. There are just too many good tracks to list (and im sure it's been done about 500,000 times by this point)! Thank you, mister James. Please sir, m-m-may I have some more? |

Some people don't like it. Which is beyond me. I also liked it. It had a modern cageish feel to it. IMO. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, i agree.... this is an excellent album! still, after like a year or whatever, it STILL is SO fresh to listen to! really vivrant work! though, i still think rdj album is his best. imho. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the piano tracks on that are a waste of time as far as I'm concerned, they just tear away at the time I could spend listening to the better tracks, |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
you just need to open up to your inner soft side... no one, i mean NO ONE can deny the power of avril 14th or beskhu3epnm.. ;) |
||||||||
|

|
|
man you really are particular with your taste in music huh |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

i took it out and blew the dust off of it a few weeks ago.. hadn't given it a good slooshie since it came out really.. I ended up liking it waay more than I used to! I used to like primarily the piano bits.. but now I'm totally digging the acid break stuff or whatever you want to call the non piano tracks. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you did the right thing, my friend. =D Seriously though I loved the entire album right from the getgo, i dont really see how anyone could actually dislike it, but to each his own! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
This album is bound to become a classic of IDM, it's great! The totallity, piano parts and even "happy birthday to you" (even though it seems hilarious) make this one into a masterpiece of which each and every sound is essential. |
||||||||

this is his all time best work there are NO TRAX NONE! That have become boring. some might think so, but i doubt it. like the "train" song, heh gweerely murmans, which it feels like a TRAIN IS BEARING DOWN ON YOU AND YOU CANNOT ESCAPE IT!!! and gwarek2 is a fucking MASTERPIECE, even though it seems everyoen hates it. i swear, they must have NO BASS RESPONSE in their fucking systems. well, i doubt many ppl can do 145dbs at 30Hz (you reallyn eed it for that song) LOL why is this the best album evar? uhh prolly cuse richard doesn't pump out music every 6months that is OLD AND TIRESOME in 6months. he spends his time, does it RIGHT and doesn't fuck around. he makes his music so that it LASTS. it will last for years and years. i swear i have listened to drukqs more times than, well, anything almost every day, i hardly miss a day listening to oen song. you can't top it. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
well fucking said |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
beskhu3epnm!!! hell yeah, that was one of the tracks i attached to first also "ziggomaticv17" and "mount saint micheal+saint michael's mount" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, ziggomatic 17 is quite possibly the most complete song i have ever heard. It's absolutely perfect at its length, and it's musically perfect throughout... i love it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ziggomatic was the LAST, yes i said LAST drill n bass song FOR ME TO LISTEN TO ALL HTE ITME wholly shit i can't beleive it. i read about ppl loving that song and im like WTF it took me SO LONG to "get it" honestly, that's what i love about drukqs. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
all i can really say about druqks is fuckin A, man i can't think of too many CDs i listen to straight through without skippin tracks, but that's one of 'em |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
gotta throw in a word for SAW2 as well... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its all about bbdyonchord and petiatl cx htdui. hail to the king baby! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I AGREEEEEEE!!!!! ON POINT!!! I CANT GET TIRED OF IT, IMPOSSIBLE. Ive never listened to any album as much as Drukqs. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the day druqks gets played out will be the same day they write my eulogy... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's such an amazing album. Especially song number 10, disc 1. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's good-but the piano tracks are mostly embarrasingly simple and a little..er..."wrong" (love Avril 14th though) Love the rest of the album too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
petiatl "wrong"????? for shame! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
VORD HOSBN 'nuff said! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
drukqs is so nice, i wish my discman worked still. i'm going to listen very soon in my room. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i cant WAIT for "smojphace" it's gonna be SO good, i know it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
By "wrong " you mean of of key/tune? They're supposed to be like that,gives them that classic "played live effect". Ironic because they're not played live. All very rustic sounding piano tracks,that remind me of being in an old cobwegg endowed mansion. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"145dbs at 30Hz " WTF!What system are you using? P.s. Don't boast. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
my musical appreciation is dependent on emotion/feeling expressed, not complexity. if you think they sound "wrong" i'm not sure you got it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
...because, for what they are, they couldn't be any different, perfection. and i don't think it's supposed to be a live sound either. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Then why would he specifically incorperate foot pedal sounds in the tracks if he doesn't wan't that live sound? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Answer me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, that maybe so, but i guess i was saying that i don't feel the actual composition was "wrong" for live effect. maybe that's not what CS2x was talkin bout though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
chill out |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the textures and sounds definitely have that effect tone |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ahhhahhah...i agree with elusive for the most part.... ahh the piano tracks are masterful on this cd!! richard's best work ever!! ziggomaticv17 is totally completely gorgeous in every way, and the computer saying "thank you" at the end makes it so much better...:) it's definitely the most listened to cd i have, it never does get old. i will still listen to drukqs when im in a super ultra jazzy 300500023000.233.. and parapalegic at the age of 105...:) ahhhhhh.... gwely mernans..that song isn't long enough.... gwarek2 is a masterpiece. |
||||||||
|

I'm chilled. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"ahhhhhh.... gwely mernans..that song isn't long enough.... gwarek2 is a masterpiece" I couldn't agree more. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
my absolute favourite of rdj, but 26 remixes is also pretty lush §:-) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that should hurt... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
drukqs and SAW Vol 2 are endless pools of music. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes no one likes gwarek2 i dont understand why they pass it off as "too simple" maybe and dont listen to the whole thing. vordhosbn oh man how i love those ending notes at like 4:04 omg those notes take me away so far i can be sober and for that instant, get completely fucking lost. those horns are the best thing ive ever heard in my life, nothing trances me out > than that |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I can't understand the slating it got, to me if you don't like Druqs, you don't like Aphex...(!) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I wouldn't say that. Drukqs is one of his best works,but it doesn't really sound much like him IMO. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh and I love gwarek 2 is an exellent track. It reminds me of Blair Witch. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
gwarek2 is deep, i wished rich would have done the soundtrack to a creepy video-game... or a score to a horror movie at this very moment i am dreaming about a h.r.giger movie all creepy and sexy... and bout getting my lend druqks back... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I was really confused about druqks in the beginning. Now I think its a great album. many great tracks, especially the piano tracks. Nice cover idea also. ...but...the windowlicker ep still kick more butt" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Has any critic actually NOT put it down? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
By which I mean, has any critic actually rated it as well as the fans? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it sounds really good on vinyl. i tend to listen to albums in a more contious way when it's on vinyl... cd's are more zapp-able and therefor less interessting. well, these are my thoughts on the matter. :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Can't really help you there, I just know 'cos it's passed into music legend... :-) |
