Aphex Or Eno?

Which do you prefer?

Aphex's ambient music or Brian Eno's ambient stuff?

I think it's kind of a tie, they both make increadbly
beautiful ambient tunes.

Opinions?

I haven't heard enough Eno to make a judgement yet, but I
just burnt a lot of m uncle's Eno CDs yesterday, so I'll
know soon enough...

afx -- more engaging. then again, by eno's definition, that
makes it less ambient. so objectively, eno; subjectively,
afx.

Which do you prefer? I don't know, but I listen to Eno more
often.

A proper ambient collection isn't complete without both, in
my opinion.

Eno is much more varied and interesting and like Whaley I
listen to Eno more. But that certainly doesn't mean I think
that Aphex' stuff is inferior in any way. The two aren't
really comparable.

i agree with astrid..

but remember.. aphex only has two discs out of true ambient
..and how many does brian eno have?

personally, i've been listening to eno a lot more than saw2
lately ...just fits my mood more

i think eno had very set ideas when he made his ambient
music - from whati i've read quite theoretical ideas whilst
aphex early ambient works were post club chill out music
that had more to do with detroit tchno and new york and
chicago house and garage - but slowed down and more spacious
and echoey..

yes.. brian eno's ambient is much more focused and theory
based...just read the liner notes of discreet music.. it was
basically his first true ambient cd ..and he outlines his
ideas and inspiration for it as well as some of the
techniques he used
lengthy liner notes describing the albums concept usually
indicate more acedemic intentions

as you probably know aphex has claimed that his ambient
music (im reffering more to saw2) was an attempt at
recreating dream sounds..but he's never really gone into
much depth about his ideas behind it..

a lot of his ambient stuff seems somewhat eno inspired
anyway

I take that back. I am just pissed off at ambient music at
the moment.

Cause of that stupid Aphex is overrated thread. Kinda long
to explain and difficult to connect.
