||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
mtv |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i heard him on radio bbc2 fingerbib, late 90s, i wish i heard him earlier, i probably did but didnt notice |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i remember i was very concentrated when they played come to daddy on mtv. i think i thought it was the most evil track i heard |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i was blown away |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
im not ashamed to say im still discovering. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
only a fool would think music is over with IDM |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no shame in it, what havent you heard yet? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nothing new, im listening to the Tuss and SOSW in a car and i think its pretty relaxing, also make me dance (slightly, without getting seen) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
studio quixote doesnt do it for me after the peel w/ the intro ambience swimming so lush |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you should be moved by the kick-bass locomotion |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
doesnt do that for me with headphones |
||||||||
|

|
top 10 track for me |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
do you know other techno tracks with the same pattern? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
kind of, if you get what i mean |

top 10 techno tracks for me |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
no, no, the prodigy did that. people were all: whoa, techno can be deep and psychedelic like rock and not just dunst. dunst.? what aphex did was blow that up and point out it could go further than psyrock could |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
to your average yoke, i mean. anyone who didn't do any more than "listen to techno sometimes." those deeply into it thought the prodigy was fantastic but knew this pile of anorak robot data over here already and etc. aphex is more about what it took to have owen wilson listening to drukqs in some movie while taking bong rips. before aphex, that probably would have been prodigy |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what was it that the person on watmm said? the one who pointed out the owen wilson thing in some thread circa 2009? oh, yes. "whoa, that aphex twin sounds like someone put a bunch of noises in a bag and shook them up mang" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's fun to try and put context to the windowlicker press line: "oh, i was bored one day and i tossed this parody of a prodigy song for a laugh." talking out of my ass, here, but i sort of suspect it took more than a saturday afternoon. i also suspect it was less of a parody and more of a deliberate missile programmed to napalm prodigy's market segment. my second guess is that all of his explanation was made up; he got the idea when someone mistook it for prodigy after it was already out for mastering etc |
||||||||

i got into aphex after someone uploaded illegal aphex mp3s to my illegal ratio ftp server. i loved that. it was equally brilliant and shit at the same time. first aphex tracks along with the most atrocious screamo metal from some mexican band that died of delerium tremens years ago. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
bucephalis bouncing ball or laughable butane bob feel like they've been in my head the longest, but i got a whole batch of loose tracks at once. perhaps from multiple people. if i wanted to get into it i could go pull up text files with dumps of the create/mod dates. i do not want to get more into it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh, yes, i also had ~techno tetris~ and the blade techno opener. ground zero and that one was right in there, trolling me. took me probably five years before i realized it was "confusion" by new order. confusion indeed |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dreamed i was taken to a place in the forest with a circle of people and one of them was apex. then i woke up |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
was he like that creature from pans labyrinth with eyeballs on the palms of his hands, and a skirt made out of cocks |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i also dreamed of a memorable melody aphex style, but i cant recall it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah i used to do that quite a bit, and wake up and go oh fuck im forgotten in |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ive forgotten it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
dreams are awesome, you can even cum in them |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah make your balls spin gyroscopically |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you think someone will ever get it rhytmically like afx? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
still fresh after 30 years. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Perhaps I had a wicked childhood. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he has set the bar so high, its hard to find other music i want to listen too, thats the best compliment i can give, i know i sound like a terrible brown noser, but its true |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
did you know phil out of time team is a bit aphex fan |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Never watched Time Team. Is that the one with Baldrick? Did you recognize where my last post comes from? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he has the funky rhythms. plain and simple. the essence of techno |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah its the one with baldrick, also i made that fact up for no real reason yes italic eyeball but i cheated and googled it because i forgot |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes its music that makes my mind feel spiritual, but my body like a robotic machine, precision timing |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
im digging into the souncloud tracks that i played the fewer times when i did the top 30 selection |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the top 30 is a great way to approach the records, but its too limitative, you cannot select 30 in a few weeks and say the rest is shit, you make a new pair of ears each time |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what to say about 23 band pass beat slo |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
or 30 ms short |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

6 RANDOM FX just reminded me of wipeout 2097 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
to remember melodies there are lots of tricks. i would be all: yes, this sounds like digital bolivia. digital boliva liva-bodivia, bodivia, bodivia, &c. &c. |
