Classics is not my style. I definitly dont like repetitive boring 4/4 beats, I never been into that kinda stuff, Caustic Window and AB3 got some nice tracks but most of the stuff on those releases is pretty boring. DRUKQS is his best release imo (SAW2, ICBYD, RDJ album is also my favourites). |
||||||||

hmm..seems like it is becomming a battle b/w his hardcore acid phase and his later IDM phase...personally I like both of these and most of my collection gets plenty of airing..though it's got some excellent tracks on the 2nd disc...SAWII is my least favourite.. |
||||||||

|
So there is someone else who gets Drukqs. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
dont worry there are tons of fans of Drukqs here :) |
||||||||
|

|
|
who "gets" drukqs? was that meant to sound patronising? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

i love drukqs. Granted, not every track on it is a masterpiece, but as a whole it's great. I enjoy the simple piano and harmonium pieces as much as the harsh drill 'n bass. It's definitely not his worst album, tho i haven't heard every one of his releases so i can't compare everything. |

"SOSW", MFM, ENT the worst(not bad) "SAW1", "Caustic Window" medium "RDJ", "Drukqs", "Classics" subtop "ICBYD" and "SAW2" the best (IMHO) |

HUGE Drukqs fan right here, my fave... ahem... IDM album ever. Not very revolutionary or fresh, but the tracks are just so HUGE, or something. Vordhosbn, CockVer10, Ziggomatic, O Switch, Taking Control, Mt St Michaels... just full of sounds, never standing still. Great stuff. And most of the piano stuff is great. The useless shit like Gwarek, Bit, Lornaderek, Qkthr (yes, I hate it) has to go, though. |

In my mind, Windowlicker is the worst Aphex Twin album... it just seems like he didn't care about it very much, and the result shows. But from the given list, Classics. |

i dont have (yet) AB3 or melodies from mars...neither AB4 or the HAB series...so It wouldnt be honest if I voted here. I have: saw I sosw saw II classics caustic compilation icbyd singles collection 51/13 rdj girl boy ep come to daddy windowlicker 2 remixes by afx drucks the 2 remixes by afx is my less favourite |

i would say SAW 1. i think it's an overrated album. boring stuff. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
in my listening experience classics is my least favorite. saw 2 is my favorite with surfing on sine waves following close behind. I can't believe someone would chose classics over surfingonsinewaves but it just goes to show that everyone takes something different from a musical piece. |

|
|
i just dont understand how someone can hate widowlicker.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'd say surfing on sine waves or the caustic windows compilation. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
windowlicker, the track, is a fantastic track, which merges all his elements together - beautiful. |

Be gone Foul Thread...!!!... (altho MnRich is probably my least fave..)... Seems like a lot of phans aren't so much into his older stuff.... odd, that's where he got his rep from...without them, they'd be no drukqs, no Windowlicker etc... |

gosh, i'm terribly flattered Pi-Picture-Person - where shall we meet? |

I guess I can do Least Remarkable :-) I guess I'd say AB1. It has some excellent stuff on it but two are on Classic's, and I got Classics before AB so to me AB is like only having two tracks. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
And I know that Analogue Bubblebath isn't on the list we where supposed to pick from but I cant pick any of those to be his least remarkable or ... gasp ... worst! |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
i hate that joyrex stuff! its crap! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Classics sucks and Analogue Bubblebath 2 IMO, boooooring |
||||||||
|

Ab3 just does nothing for me. the soudn quality is poor, half of it is filling. classics isnt to great either. Saw 1 has its charm. SAW II is BRILLIANT! Drukqs. i found it to be rather good, but with a lot of bollox in it. it should be half as long. the rest of aphex, is just good. real good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Ahum! Classics is to me one of his greatest releases. Many people don't like it because it is too brutal. When i had bought it first, i really hate it. It took more than a year to understand the music: the noise is fucking genouis. It's my favourite AFX-release now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Its just, the later aphex albums really have that sound, but classics souds like any other techno bollox!! its ok, yes, but not revelutionary. for me, they are interesting, as seeing how the artist evolves, from the classics crap, into the stuff that really rox the sox. Windowlicker is great! what are you guys talking about. Consider this.... if aphex thinks classics is great, why doesnt he make stuff like it anymore? |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Diertypriest, classics is TOTALLY apart as any other techno bollox. It was 10 year ago definitely very very very revolutionary. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I guess you have a point there actually........ hmm. its just sounds so primitive... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, you hate it or you love it. I love it. |
