Everyone seems to list Alberto on their top Aphex song lists and I've given it quite a few listens..... I just don't see it...what is the big deal??? |
||||||||

It just comes down to a matter of taste I guess...I think its a really great song personally...nice little melody...doo doo doo...ya know?...melody... |

It's a great chill song. Its got the groovy mellow beat which keeps building up then just drops back down. One of my all time favorite smoking songs. |

is a real masterpiece of quietness and emotion |

I think its sad! in the good way. strange emotions erupt. its more the way the tempo and emotion changes, thats really well done. :o try giving it a hard listen. |

Something about it seems kind of sinister to me... |

It's a great track and among one of the most accessable Aphex Twin tracks. A pretty nice melody. :-) It's like the track is trying to tell you a story sort of. |

I like the way the melody kind of interacts with the drums... very good track... I love it... |

if you listen hard...you can hear scissors as part of the beats :) in correlation to the shampoo,salon etc. at least i hear scissors |

I think its a great track, the melody is so nice and the scissors make a dope beat. |

Ah yeah I love that song, not my fac AFX song, but I love it. My friend who doesnt like AFX, well most of them dont but some of them do - said that it sounds like a song off of Donkey Kong 1 or something. And it does... |

It´s the way the melodies intertwine.. Those beautiful melodies.. Alberto Balsalm is the Doric temple of electronica,, So close to perfection. |

Archrival: Good description of the beat (scissors) I'd never thought of it that way, but it makes sense. It always reminds me of waking up in the evening with a breeze coming in through the window (I once played this on loop as I slept for a few hours in the late afternoon). I think it's the melody that makes it so calming. |

The song is nearly flawless... it tastes like ice cream. Iz-US isn't too far behind. |

ya i see what u mean about the scissors now... i never noticed taht before, but then i think ive only heard teh track like once before i d/l-ed it and then just forgot about it its a shame cus now that i listen to it its VERY good... |
||||||||

yeah, alberto b. is fantastic. i especially like the beat. fits in well with the melody. it is also one of my favourite tracks on ICBYD along with Mookid, Acrid Avid Jam Shred and...well all of them, really. |

I never used to see the big deal behind AB... I was like, "Well, it's kinda pretty, and that's it..." Stick with it Repeated listening does reap rewards - my fave saying, and one of my own! |
