After listening to it quite a bit... it seems to have some stockhausen type sounds in it.

yay!
I think it's pretty friggin great. And I know I'll like it even more after repeated listenings, after every note of it gets ingrained in my head. Fenix Funk is actually quite anthemic. I mean there's some serious dancing, fist-thumping, "oh snap!"s-from-your-friends-when-you-turn-it-on potential here.
I'm crapping my pants over new good aphex material, and the prospect of much more on the horizon. You guys should be too! Months ago we were wondering if we'd ever even hear new music from RDJ again.

Okay, i rated this at a 3.5/5 when I was sober earlier. After ingesting the sweet vitamins, t, h and c, and having another listen, I must change that to a 4.5/5.
Nice work Richard.

same here. I listened to both a pile of times to try to figure out why aphex selected such strange structure, and still I can't remember them (erm, and I can usually _reproduce_ a melody on sheet music after the first listen). fucking insane.

it is erratic. A little. I hear pianos in there too. What intrigues me is, I know he has a house full of synths and I know how sequencers work. Was this one take? It sounds like it. It all flows in to each other. All the bits. There is so much going on. drifting in and out. All very good. One of those things that grows on you. Classic aphex. I love aphex!! I wanna suck his gold plated auxilary cables!! 1/4 inch!!

no no no, it was sculpted, not one take. Check my thread about 2'40"-4'20"; around 3'30" the filtered piano melting into synth makes ME melt.. anyway

it may all be analogue synths, but he would have used Max/MSP. He's a master at it.

It's nothing amazing. It's no way as tight as drukqs but there's something about it that makes me love it.
4.2/5

once is not enough
it's the classic "piano-track of drukqs meets acid-track"-track
now, put it on repeat and report back in an hour

xmd5a has potential put goes nowhere interesting, and the main melody at the end is offensive.
3/5

i think it is on purpose :P
yay, it's really growing on me, bit like drukqs : at first it seems dosjointed but each listen bring more coherence to the whole thing, still, i'm a bit annoyed by the funky bass/voice of fenix funk but nothing irritating, totally yaying for xmd5a for now !!!
much looking forward to 1&2...

In terms of being tracks by aphex, they are somewhere between good and great. But a good aphex track is an amazing track by any other artists standards.

it's nice stuff but im not blown away or anything, i guess deep down inside i hoped for one of these really new super creative and complex albums.

yay. mind you i've only listened once, but for now i'll say 4.5 out of 5.
i was really expecting this to be shit, to be honest; after his last release and the price point of this i was convinced it'd be some kind of rdj-style lol joke. it's not bad at all, though, and i think it'll get better with each listen.

hmm.. well, it's kinda hard to judge since i think these two tracks are just the first small peice in what is intended to be a much larger complete work. so, i think it's unfair to judge them before they're properly placed in context.
but, standing on their own, i'd give these tracks a 3.75.

101% yay! Xmd5a totally got me. outstanding track. there's so much going on in there that you have to listen for god knows how many times to discover it all. a bit of an electro feel to it.
this track makes me wanna move. spastically ok, but still. love the synth that comes in at 04:36. someone called it offensive here, but this is the shit!
Xmd5a = 5/5 Fenix funk = 3/5
bring on the other ones...

Yes, that tells us that people who don't like Analord tend to avoid these threads.
