i was tempted to say 96 because of the singles collection, but i won't count reissues, which is basically what it was. oh yeah, and the Crowsmangegus mix on the 51/13 comp cuts out the best part of the track!!!

I guess SAW85-92 was the stuff that got me interested in him... so, whenever that was released... even though I didn't hear it till 2000, or 2001...

the thing about 1993 that got me so for it is that I really have ab3 and sosw as 2 of my top 5 aphex releases
(if that top exists in my head)
and then all the On stuff is also the best in eps

but milk man, inkey$ and beetles are awesome

the thing about girl boy ep is that the main track is already in another album (rdj) and the rest is nice but tooooo short
while on is just possible to be found in the on eps or in the singles collection but with lots more of stuff
does that make any sense?

good topic, nacmat!
Hmmm, I'd say either '94 or'95.
SAWII and ICBYD cannot be topped, (but drukqs is coming exceptionally close).

oh, its all so confusing... i like track "on" much more to "girl/boy song" but the rest of those tracks (though i like them all on "on" ep's) is so good on girl/boy ep...hehe
one thing is certain tho - rdj makes excellent ep's :)

and apart from that particular experience of yours... which year do you prefer for it being when he released the best music in your humble opinion?

1992 or 1994 really. 1994 has what are probably my favorite albums of his, and 1992 just seems like an exciting time in his career, with saw 85-92 being released and his great career basically just starting. if i had to pick, i guess i'd say 1994, because i personally think saw vol 2 is his best album, and that coupled with his other works that year make it his best year by far.
he hasn't gone downhill though, as alot of people seem to think. i still think hes releasing great music, and i'm hopeful that his best is yet to come.

indeed 1994 is a good year considering he released saw II and ab4
but classics is a compilation of tracks made in the previous years and words&music is just like a promo of saw II
but for sure sawII alone makes that year glorious
