This song is freaking awesome. I just started listening to it on SAW 85-92 and it just blow me away. Quite arguably my favorite aphex song ever.

It's cool to see some people on this MB have enoufg taste to know that green calx is awesome (doesn't surprise me by phob :) ) first time I heard it I thought I wouldn't find a better 303 line after...
just fucking mind blowing... i'm going back to rebirth!!!

Glad to see I'm not the only fan of this song. But I'm not too much into making music outside of being gay and using Fruity Loops, would you mind explaining what a 303 is? (I have a clue but I'm not too sure)

TB303 : a roland analog bassline, build back in early 80's, the particualr sounds (especially with full reso and playin with the cut off) made it very popular and because it was quickly out of production the prices went UP UP UP!!! it's now like 1000$!!! fuck the hell out of roland for stopping producing it!!! i'll never be able to buy one :°-(

Green Calx is my FAVORITE calx, followed by yellow, and blue is a distant third. Green Calx is fucking awesome, oh man...

I can't see why the track would have been better on another album. :-)
I'm pretty sure Rich was <20 when he made that track. That's cool enough. I'm not sure when the 303 saw the light of day tho.

Actually, a green metallic compound, like an oxide, like lime...a calx is product of a oxidized metal...
I never met a calx I didn't like...;.)

Just my opinion, but the song absolutely repulses me. My stomach just turns after the first little sound effect. Bleugh.

I really like it. It kind of breaks up the album really nicely while it still fits in somehow. The acid is so squelchy... mmmm. And I like the distant sound effects and hints of speech samples. SAW1 rules.

Don't listen to the old Ophecks, listen to the new. Green Calx is NOT my fave anymore... that would be Yellow Calx.
Green is OK, but not very ''ambient'', is it? :-/

Its good, I especially like the intro, there's a real 'spacey' feel to it. I always picture a space ship of sum sorts landing on a moon at the start, then rhubarb bears poring out of in and thrusting around everywhere, wahaha!

Green calx owns. It was the first real hint of where afx would go with later, more beat oriented music.
Plus the commander keen fart beat is awesome.

blue calx > green calx > yellow calx for me :)
they all have something that make them great... i even wondered once if all calxes weren't remixes of the same song (but i wondered so many stupid things... ;))
