definitelly my favourite artist, and is most likely going to stay my favourite for ever! there are a lot of people trying but no one come close to what he does..i heard a lot of all sorts of music and came accross some brilliant artists in all possible genres but i still like rdj the most. what a guy! <3 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and that's basically what yesterday's breezeblock boiled down to |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
afx is a warm site, listening to him is like be back home. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i usually dislike hyped artists, but aphex is another story..more hype there is around him better it makes me feel :) there's so much to his music, but some people (qrter) just don't want to admit it :) |

he's a good kid. i like a lot of his tracks. |
||||||||
|

|
|
I like aphex twin! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
aphex twin is the aphex twin of electronic music |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes he really dosen't get enough appreciation around here |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hey, those other i like aphex threads were bumped up after i made this one..those are all old threads, it's been about time for one again! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the best |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
fair enough =), gives me an idea, when was the last time there was a "slade appreciation thread" then? you cant deny those/that christmas hits |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
just listenig to breezeblock set and its so fucking great. the ultimate trusim is .. its ALL about the music. evrything else, the vids, image, jokes, mediia is utterly fluff but.... because aphex has touched it, its ok and can be enjoyed too. He really has a magic that touches things..... When i think of all those folks who, when they hear RDJ thse days, dismiss it as noise, or topo harsh or not right, i can't help thinking its as bad denying you were once a child. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no idea..i doubt there was a slade appreciation thread at all..definitelly time for one! oldschool rock deserves one as well! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I just don't get it, Goran - you listen to lots of music that is so much more interesting than what he has produced. I have, therefore, come to the conclusion that smoking all that dope has finally destroyed your brain. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i know you're joking about the dope.. as for music..i find it interesting as well actually. there's this pop form to his songs that im not a big fan of when it comes to other musicians, but in his case there's something different to it. i can't quite say what it is, just something that makes it incredibly interesting for me...and i don't think it has much to do with the fact it's aphex..well, a little surely, but i doubt i would be enjoing it this much just for the sake of who made it. i like nirvana as well, remember, i guess there's a bit of similarity in their and rdj's music and why i like it.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's called passion.. you can feel the heart and soul put in to it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well put..people who live for music, who can work on a track for a week straight, definitelly add to me admiring them..when you can connect to how they imagine music to sound like is when it's get interesting.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
is this your fiftieth thread called "aphex twin appreciation thread" ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
actually i was hoping it was closer to 100..i guess i have lots of work to do to get there then.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no, I think you may be right... it's just sometimes I don't read thread titles.. I'm too busy jerking off. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes, he's the best. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
qrter is aphex twin |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yup, hes good. he really should bloody write some more decent experimental material instead of re-releasing old stuff though |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i heard that he's leaving Warp because he's got a fatal illness, even though he has 74 albums worth of amazing music that he doesn't want to release incase it get ripped off it's true because he posts on watmm and he told a friend of the guy who runs my idmz net label but vsnares is better anyway i met him at a festival and he's gonna do some more amen tracks etc, etc |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
his analordian tunes are like heroin in sound-wave form. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if he's affraid of getting ripped off he should do what massive attack do - just move to something new when people start copying it :) |
||||||||

It's encouraging that young tolstoyed, who owns over 8,000,000,000 records from one end to the other of the cultural spectrum, still rates The Twin as the best. I rate Aphex the best, ever since I first heard him back... back.. what.. 13 years ago? I can still listen to everything he's ever released and never be let down. I only hope he does come round some time to doing another proper album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha, facts are facts..why fight against it :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Some people have it, and some people don't. It's as simple as that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
surely you mean rdj has it and other people don't.? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It depends on what you're into, but he does have a knack of seeming to make amazing music, like it's just something he threw together on a rainy afternoon. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha, wasn't someone (vibert?) talking about that in that recent breezeblock thing? how he heard this afx song and thought it was the most amazing song he ever heard and then later he found out aphex put it together in like two hours? :) |
||||||||
|

Aphex Twin was the first artist to get me interested in electronic music -- and he'll always remain one of the great composers of the late 20th century in my mind. Never did I think that i could get into an album with virtually no beats (ambient works, vol. II) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i like you already! welcome on board! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

I think a lot of people in the 90's, even good musicians, felt like they had to conform to the trappings of a particular genre. Aphex just did whatever the fuck he liked, and did it well. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no it's gig.... *bites his long tongue* |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i sometimes worry that i don't appreciate him enough. what can i do to raise my appreciation level? should i send him gold and jewels or something? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i doubt he'd like that..maybe some flowers would be a much better idea! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
appreciated i've been listening to him for about 7 years now. if his music was a computer game i'd give it a lastability of 9. |
||||||||
|

There's a stereotype of a lot of dance music being made in bedrooms. Do you do a lot of that yourself? Yeah, I can't do music anywhere else. It's got to be in the bedroom basically. You get to do tracks in the nude and if you're working in the studio, you just can't do that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hehe, i wonder which afx tracks are nudey tracks windowlicker, probably |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i bet studio operators are used to seeiing musicians playing in nude..dunno where's the problem in that btw :) Aphex Twin dismissed going on tour with Radiohead: "I wouldn't play with them since I don't like them." that just made me like him 10% more! <3 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
excellent! he also turned down a collaboration with linkin park, i once heard |
