Ok, so who likes it, and what are your favorite tracks?

I really like it... it took me a while to get into, but I
like it now... my favs are Polygon Window, Audax Powder,
Quixote, Portreath Harbour (rereleased version) and
Quino-Phec... although, each one except Quoth is good...

I love it... it's one of the first Aphex albums I got, and
it's never gotten old for me

Favorite tracks are Polygon Window, Audax Powder, Untitled
7, and Quino-phec (which is on my list of all-time relax
tracks also).

I also like to surf on sine/cosine waves in my spare time.
Good, clean fun.

Quoth is great!

incidently, a lot of the elements of Surfing on sine
waves... is inspired by house. early songs of RDJ "warping"
house to his own devices... bad pun i know but true

Supremacy II

Damn fine old school electronica! I don't really like Quoth,
but other than that, nice sounding record!

One of my fave aphex albums...

Theres def something about the sound that makes it "Polygon
Window" rather than "Aphex Twin", which is kinda
interesting...it's not often that an artist is able to
release under different names and keep the quality way up
there in the way rdj does...

"ACID MIGHT KILL THE POPULATION"...love that dark acid vibe
of so many of the trax on here...was a little dissapointed
that the recent 2 extra tracks weren't so dark...but fuck,
it was nu aphex so I ain't complaining...

all tracks great... my fav are, polygon window, audax power,
quixote, untitled, quino-phec, ...., when you look at these
songs trough a spectrograph(speling), the differences (some
) are visible, like the sounds is extremly compressed, the
wave form is very don't know how to say but its very curve,
like there is no peek.
indeed a pretty old school album that sounds great 10 years
later...
