His melodies. His sounds. His ability to make what would otherwise sound rubbish sound good.

Lol, he's too hard to beat indeed yeah. I now can say it even louder after I have listened to many other similar artists. I used to think he was the best from the first track ever I listened to by him but I now can definitely confirm that.
Lee: I concur.

I disagree about the marketing. He just seems to do what he wants. There doesn't seem to be much of a marketing strategy at play but his talent is sufficient so that he is able to get away with it. He allowed the media to shape his image for him without him deliberately trying to guide them. It turned out well.

Depends on how the word genius is applied. Calling Aphex a genius would be a valid application.

oh, just because i questioned his mastery ?
i also thought you need to do much more to get that rank, well.
back on track, as it seems.
as for the real conversation, dear ecnadniarb, i think its more of a, lets call it, manual mastery instead of mind-power of his, at least nowadays, also, marketing.
few good board moves won't win the whole game i say.

genius, by definition
"Extraordinary intellectual and creative power."
i really wouldn't argue with that statement.
and come on, it's not like he hasn't proved himself worthy. have you listened to his music?

I'm winding down the d_b franchise but
I think he's great as he seems to just do what pleases himself, and maybe his mates. He's good at what he does, I still listen to him after I don't know .. 14 years, SAW 85-92 still sounds as good today as it did then.
