i cant find emotion in any afx track whatsoever....i
usually dont find it hard, some songs from Tango n Vectif
were very powerful to me...but for some reason i hear all
aphex songs 'as they are'....

I find Richard's stuff pretty emotional, especially the SAWs
and a lot of I Care Because You Do. Drukqs is pretty
emotionless, with the exception of a couple lighter tracks.


Now AUTECHRE... I sense NO emotion, except for Vletmrx21 and
a couple others. They're so robotic to me... that in itself
is kind of an emotion... emotionless but makes me feel some
weird emotions, I dunno...

no i like the songs (in many cases)....they just sound too
'synthesised' to me i guess....

afx ae []pusher or anyone on warp....except 'shove piggy
shove' by lfo

maybe you do get an emotion when listening to it but you
don't associate that feeling with being emotional

You should smoke more weed, close your eyes and listen to
"Everything you do is a Balloon" (Hi scores) or "Petiatil Cx
Htdui" (drukqs).

Maybe you've been listening to too much music lately and you
blew an emotional fuse.

yeah, the weed thing'll definately help, I almost cried when
I heard Alberto Balsam after smokin a jay. good times.

I'm sure you all will say "Oh I dont want to have my brain
artificially stimulated so that I feel emotion" But I ask,
would you rather feel emotion from weed or not feel it at
all? Tho I do get emotional about many tracks even when
sober, weed makes me emotional to songs that I normally
wouldnt be. Its fuckin spiritual dood.

I thought RHUBARB was crazy with emotions....

pretty much all of both SAW's are....

thats very odd, because i find RDJ's stuff very emotional,
in fact i've always thought that was what set him apart from
the others... though I think that his music seems less
emotional after the RDJ album to the present. I've always
find MU-ZIQ to be less real emotionally, sort of like a diet
cola imitates Pepsi with the weird cloying taste...

I think all of AFX is very emotional.

i think iambic 5 poetry is pretty fuckin emotional... I
could have sex to that song man, thats emotion for ya.

I'd say AFX has emotionless songs, but not much of 'em -
most of them are SOOO loaded with energy that they can even
change your mood. I can easily imagime myself torn to
pieces, frustrated and fed up, then launching 'RDJ Album'...
and going light and quick and laughing and energetic like
hell...

Man, I think weatheredsoner is damn right - you've got an
overload. Go listen to Britney Spears for a while - check
that bitch for emotions :] I think a month of an
electro-diet would be great.
