Just heard all the tracks on analord 1 and 2. I really like Steppingfilter 101. AFX is back!
Fenix Funk 5 is one of the best tracks i have heard (the best one this year).

Analord2: Yay. Analord1: None of the tracks are long enough to leave an impression

"He's really capable of much more, though."
SO true. Compare the production on Analord 10 vs 1 & 2 - quite a difference! The set up is a bit cynical, making a series with the expensive binder + a great first 12" and then releasing crap on the following 12inches (can´t wait to hear 3 & 4!). AFX shouldn´t treat his audience like this. Give us something actually worth buying - on a CD - and maybe we´ll do it, ok?

Im guessing he likes it all. Maybe he wanted to do some simple stuff. Windowlicker is mind blowing cause it mixes beautiful sounds with incredible editing, but that shouldn't steal away from Bwoon Dub's thunder. Even though I think it does.. He's obviously still using a sampler. Anyway, I think it boils down to the fact that he really doesn't release much music. These tracks are so a simple. They probably didn't take long to make. If he released more we wouldn't be sweating over them so much and we'd have more variations. He measures out what he releases obsessively. Charging an arm and a leg doesn't help, either.

analord10 is more complex than analord01 and analord02 who are acid tracks pretty easy imo.
i like acid music but analord10 is the best.
i find the untitled track4 from analord01 beautiful for the melody, unfortunately it's too short.

avard, you guys, keep in mind.
analord 10 is released of APHEX TWIN, and the last part in the series (for now)...which would correspond to drukqs period, thus the complex drill.
analord 1 and 2 are the first in the series thus released from AFX and dating from a long time ago (acid house ages)
afx wasn't doing complex stuff back then, why would he (when reproducing that era) do any different?

analord 2 is better than 1 but I think they're both quite poor. I find them quite boring and overly repetitive.

nobody was smacked by where's my girlfriend!!?? i heard it in the live set he did at the primaµvera festival and didn't thought it was him for a second but loved it since then!
i was very surprised and delighted to find it is an analord track, and thebest of all 1 & 2 for me, instant classic for me!!
and it is a stormer for the dance floor too... :)

yeah it's a perfect mix-song, and he mix it with such class and good tracks! that mix is top stuff...
but i don't understand how there's so little appreciation from all the oldschool aphex lovers for it and grumpy acid, both of them are pure afx, as good as what he did early on...
the vynils are quite heavy and thick too (they miss a proper sleeve tho, i got mine in static-charged plastic sleeves that sticks to te records as you pull it out... baaad! had to put another one directly to avoid scratching it everytime!)
even if it's not audiophile pressing it is still a very good pressing, way better than my girl/boy ep which is ultra-thin and came warped :D

I really don't know where I stand with this, it's pretty average, nothing anyone has not heard before better. I agree with 'those who don't know the past are doomed to repeat it' (or something similar)
.
It's a hommage and derrivatave poo.

im pretty floored,
nothing "ground breaking" but did you really expect it to be?
it's a good homage to the old style (in which i wasn't even listening to at the time, so my opinino is irrelevant).
oh man, it doesn't matter.
a melody is a melody ... bwoon dub, nuff said.

oh, this two are really starting to grow on me..i was a bit disappointed in both at first, mostly because analord 10 was so brilliant and i liked that one instantly..but anal 1&2 are just getting better with every listen and i already find them very awesome!

Phonatacid is pristine! The use of the 303 is multi-layered, creating a sensation akin to the spreader power-up from Contra(tm).

the ten minutes of this song are so lush and flow so well i always think it's shorter!
+8% pitch sounds better for #2 than 45rpm IMO (#1 at 45 is well sick...)
favorite for now: pissed up in se1 (wonderful melody!)

Nay.
Analord 10 is godlike! but these are just ...meh.
Mabe when i spin them again years from now i will go "Hey !! i was wrong , this is really good!!" but it is very unlikely.
They are not totaly crap tho , but just a little ...meh.

1+2 and 10 are very different. i quite like each for their own unique qualities.
every release so far i've heard has sounded pretty much like i expected, which is pretty odd considering i'm normally bloody awful at predicting things.
