Aphex Twin - Classics :: Any good???

Aphex Twin - Classics

Is this any good? Could someone please tell me their
opinions on it? I have "I care because you do" and I like
it. Now a friend of mine is selling "Classics" so I'm
wondering whether I should take it off him...

Yes. At first you will think it a little harsh in places,
but in time you will dig it all.

I think it is very good. It's worth buying just for
Digeridoo and analouge Bubblebath. But there are many little
Gems on there. Such as Polynomical-C, Tamphex and
Metamarphstic (not sure if i spelt that right)

*shakes fist* Buy it

it is very unlike ICBYD. it has the aphexy feel to it tho..
a bit aggro sometimes

good release, but not his best. if you only have ICBYD i'd
reccomend getting it.

little later and listen to it again, thats what i did and i

well it depends if you like tracks like come on you slags or
ventolin of icbyd. the harsh sound of this album + techno
=classics.

occfactor lets just say it will be a new side of afx you
have yet to discover

im not a huge fan of it, but it has one of my favourite
tracks by him; polynomial-c. its the track that got me into
afx back in the day. didgeridoo and analog bubblebath are
both great tracks too.

it get's a thumbs up from me, as long as you're not
expecting anything groundbreaking (for today's standards)
then you're okay.

it's totally got the aphex feeling, i don't think i've heard
anything by him that doesn't have that afxish twist to it.
can also be enjoyed when followed by polygon window surfing
on sine waves.

I love this album (compilation), it includes digeridoo and
xilem tube eps, apart from half of the ab1 ep and some other
great tunes

its old school... (which I love) but it also is very
aphexish

If you're getting it from a friend, then he's probably not
selling it for the full price. That alone should be reason
enough for getting it from him.

Also a few very decent tracks on this album.
