On is a fuckin great song...the rest of the ep is alright
but On is too good for the other 3 tracks):

Yeah, it sounded like Donkey Rhubarb sorta... and track twos
a bit like Vaz Deferenz? I dunno, i listen to some cdnow.com
samples, and it sounded like that, so I hope its just as
good!

It?s kind of sea-ish. I was having this vacation down at an
amazing island called Gotland, and it really got me in the
ON-mood.

Beautiful start with very simple echoy piano with low storm
sounds in background...

And then the killer Aphex Hard Bass & Rhythm kicks in....

pure class...

I miss the older Aphex stuff. :/

On is great. I love all four tracks on that CD.

"On" was the very first Aphex track that I ever heard, but
"73-Yips" is what made me investigate that style of music
further ...

the reload remix is the best, better than the original.
the mu-ziq one is quite nice as well.

i think i'd go with the original, d-scape mix is kinda funky
tho

Oh gosh I love On. My favorite afx song too date and also
the first one I've ever heard by him.

Though, I will say that I like the reload mix the best. One
of my favorite songs out there. Listen from 2:02 - 3:03 and
from 5:33 till the end. Some of the best sounds I've ever
heard.

mu-ziq remix. My favorite remix ever ...

reload = 1
mu-ziq = 1

Sorry, missed the posts above, it's

mu-ziq is nice, reload is better.
anyone else here actually like the video for on?

I love the video! It has a Dali-esque feel to it!

Points: 3167 Status: Lurker



Yeah, the video is actually really good, it's a shame it's
overshadowed by the Cunningham videos.

And yes the µ-ziq mix has a really nice melody, but those
certain points in the reload track just really make that
track shine.

The video is great, it got kind of melancholic feel to it,
like the song itself...hard to explain. First Aphex i ever
heard too and it got me to learn to play it on my crappy
Yamaha keyboards back in the days...

73-Yips is... erm.. a tad noisey! To say the least, lol.
But, On is very nice, and SO MUCH LIKE DONKEY RHUBARB!!!
It's quite amazing. Great cd, great cd.

On is a sweet track, the video is nice too. The u-ziq mix
is the best though, simply amazing.

d-scape mix, love it

but between the reload mix and the mu-ziq mix, i'd have to
go for the mu-zig mix, i love the breakdown in the middle,
almost a perfect slice of techno

i love d-scape mix, its fucking great...
one of the strangest afx songs, imo, its kinda ambient but
with fast beats...incredible
