i take issue with the comment that the piano tracks are there for the sole purpose of helping us take a breather from the drill tracks... i think more than anything the album is all about duality... druks or druqs... take yer pick |

Glitchy hiphop stuffm, it's fucking cool. I'll try burn a bunch of CDs before I go....was gonna do the big cheat thnig and give Scott one, but if you guys are going I mihgt burn one for ya or whatever (if you want one). A CD swap would be cool |

Drukqs was never called bad...just that AFX had fone most the stuff already...the really exciting tracks were the ones where he stretched himself out a bit...that Michael's mountain whatzhizname track is great...as are 54 welsh beats...but then again...a lot of the other stuff was old hat. |

Nah he bougbht a new midi keyboard which has sent him broke -- there's aslight chance but he needs to find a ride home etc etc etc... Also he's had bad luck getting into places as he doesn't have photo ID.... I'm still gonna try and convince him though ;-) |

ah yes of course, poor beggar :) |
||||||||
|

| |||||||||
|
|
fuck that he has a cool keyboard! hehe |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

OK: YES!!! Its the best electronic album, and I cant in my wildest dreams think of a better album. The only one who can top this album is Aphex himself. Epic tracks like track 10 disc one is just too good to be true,. |
||||||||
|

|
|
and Manticore u wondered if "OK" was stoned... I wonder what da fuck you been smoking??? If u dont like this album and like AFX just must be on "china white" or something, this is the cream of the crop!!!!! I like this album even more when im sober. |

Drukqs changes your perception of everything, I swear. It is amazing, but there is also other great albums to enjoy, like Od said, it's not the only album in the world. oh yeah... OUT! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
And Od: Did you end up putting your name down with Fuckface Records? Cause I got four free business-card CDRs today in the mail from them... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
drukqs is indeed a huge album, masterpiece it is a trip through every mood it flows perfectly for me |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I fully agree :) |
||||||||
|
|

how come ever thread that some starts about how much they like an artist or album someone post how much they hate said artist or album? if thats what the post is about thats one thing..... it's just this post but many many others.... anywho druqks is certainly aphex's greatest albumn...... a work of art... sorry about the rant i'm just tired... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Druqks on drugs cannot be beaten |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that is so true. i seriously think that this album was made for drug use - just look at the name :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have never listened to drukqs on drugs.... is marihuana a drug? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Nacho, smoke a fat fucking joint and stick on Cymru Beats. It's an experience :) |

I LOVE Drukqs so much. Elaborate production that goes over the top, but a little excess is good sometimes. There's also countless little melodies thrown in that really stick with me, almost too many to count. They go by so fast that they maybe don't leave a strong enough impression. But I'm always paying attention when listening to Drukqs... it's NEVER ''playing in the background''. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ah.. you always have so nice things to say. I also love Drukqs... And it's two CDs! It's long and awesome. It will take a long time til I get tired of it. I rarely put it on, but when I do, I sure enjoy it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Lets not forget that the percussion itself is very melodic. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I play it so much, sometimes I feel guilty for the rest of cds I have. its great quality and its beautiful at the same time |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ah I know you like drukqs... it is one of my fav aphex work, everytime I put it on I think like "why don't I listen to this more ofthen?"... But in a way there is some kind of angst or something over it, it's not very uplifting... I like non-uplifting music, like placebo and joydivision - it's in fact uplifting in another way - cause it is beautiful... aw I can't even give a reason not to listen to it! but it has got a certain sound, that fits only certain days... I really like it though. anyway. you (or anyone else) know why mr twin choosed that cover for drukqs? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you mean the pics of the inside of a piano? I guess its related to the piano tracks |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
of course they are...!!! Yeah I would listen to drukqs right now, but I can't =( I'm at my folks place during the summer... but I will put it on, when I get back home! =) How's spain these days, nac? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
spain is hot (weather) sunny empty (I live in madrid, no beach here, so everybody left to the seaside) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you make any music, nac? Or what creative things do you do, besides work? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I am not an artist really like many on this board are. well I am an architect, and that made me like drawing, but lately work doesnt let me draw as much as I would like to |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well... working is good, as long as one enjoys it! You have any work you can show me? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
not at the moment, but I will soon |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
great! just notify me... I like looking at art. And Spain has had a few nice artists before... There's a weird swedish movie called "Picassos äventyr" (="The adventures of Picasso") where they speak a very simple type of spanish, english, french, etc. It's quite funny. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
never heard of it, but I will look for it. going back to drukqs: I dont know if it was surrounded who said this was an autumn album... that makes some relation with what you said about non uplifting... its true its a warm album... melancolic in some way... the colours in the artwork are very well chosen in my opinion... they are very much like the mood of the music |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeaz! I totally agree! The colors of the album - that's how it really feels. Melancolic was in fact he word I was looking for... I like the way it shifts from fast to mellow. What's the name of the 2nd track of the first CD? It's extrmely good... my fav on the album... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I could never really listen to Drukqs except for a 6 track cdr I made. Then I lost the cdr and never bothered replacing it. I'm secretly hoping the next album is all prepared piano. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Vordhosbn. Nacmat: I used to do that a lot, the album artwork and it's colour would somehow influence the music inside. With Druqks though I think of it as 'black' because of the actual CDs. Especially the second disc, that's verrrry black. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
indeed, cd2 is really dark... the happybirthday song is the onlyone I dont see to fit there |
||||||||

FUKQ DRUKQS |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no i'm just being clever NUTKQS TO DRUKQS |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I mean: are you referring to drugs or drukqs? |
||||||||
|
|

one night a couple of friends and I were kinda drunk (not much really) at one of them's house.. and blah to maketh elong story short.. my friend played druqks and we all ended up dancing like nuts... it was a very weird experience because none of us are really into dancing and that stuff... one of them is a goth guy who appears to be so bitter and hate everything... and i'm a lazy mofo... that experience is something we rarely talk about cus it's kinda embarasing to all of us (but at the same time it's so fucnny we can't help but tell others the story). well blah blah this has nothing to du with this post really.. cus later we danced to squarepusher (but drukqs started it all)... --- but bleah... druqks rules and time will prove me right you... infidels ; ) *( - wondering how saw2 wasw received by the fans when it came out - )* |
