I downloaded the mp3's before it came out... Loved them... when out and got the cd, still loved it. I dont see what you guys are bitching about. The cd kicks ass. It reeks of RDJ.

i think the album as an album is shite-no flow to it sounds thrown together blah blah blah-but make a minidisc comp and its sweet. like the entire rephlex back catalogue-70% pointless pretentious electronica under a lo-fi umbrella that has sagged with age & putrification from acid rain of yesterday, 31.232332626222 % genius.

Oooooooh I love it
Some of the slow stuff is shite
But some of the fast stuff makes me want to take off my clothes and run round the streets with my john thomas flapping about.
If the police catch me i will say:
"Hey man I am doing this cos I am happy, what is wrong with my tadger (appart from its size), go and catch the real criminals those who steal wheel chairs and blow up combine harvesters. I am happy, there is no crime in that is there mr. officer".

The fast drum songs have a percussion unit on every single row of musical progression and that makes it sound dumb sometimes. I havn't heard it enough to make up my mind. It sounds like maybe he was using different equipment that doesn't allow such interesting results. I really like how "taking control" etc. evolves constantly though, sometimes turning into a isolated melody then returning. I'm pretty sure the complicated drums pretty much stay the same but the melody only changes (I'd have to llisten again). I think i agree with some review I read where he's trying to be, like a "mature" musician like eric satie and it doesn't work for him.

i think he proved to be a mature (don't like that word) musician long ago, like back when he released caustic window. no one would call caustic window pretentious because it's hard and agressive. but just because it's got pianos and a dramatic thouch to it everyone starts shouting pretentious!!!!

when i first downloaded the album i thought it was boring. then one morning i smoked half a vial of oil and really listened to the album. now i think that it is a piece of pure genious! if i were to meet mr. james i would suck on his toes in return for the happiness and meaning he brings to my life. thanks to him i have a passion to make music for myself.

Aphex Twin is no easy Stuff. You gotta listen to the shit, when you´re alone (and maybe smoked some weed:) . His sound is absolutely amazing. He´s gotta extreme complex structure in his songs. So don´t talk such a shit about "drukqs" when you listend to it only 2 times. The aphex´sounds are something individual. He´s fucking great, although some tracks are really shit (some of them are really bad). The Ambient Album II is one of my favourite CD´s ever.

personally I don't think any of the tracks are shit. Most aphex hasn't been hard listening to me, back when it was icbyd I caught on pretty much right away, and with classics and older shit that was immediately catching music
