So, why the fuck do IDM freaks think this LP is a
masterpiece? Four and Girl/Boy Song are excellent,
everything else is...

because it's the epitome of IDM music, what most people
would use as a primer to help others comprehend the genre

i have one little complaint about that album; it's basically
too damn short.

No. Crap. Goon Gumpas is advert music and Fore Street is a
cheese fest.

Fingerbib? It's called Fore Street on the Warp Records web
site. Who gives a fuck? It's still one of his worst tunes.

i too am not a big fan of this release, i realize a lot of
the songs are kind of supposed to be jokes but I am not
looking for this in my music, i prefer drukqs and his more
serious work much more, now granted I dont always only want
serious music but I tend to like the more serioud idm music.

Kids listen to 'humorous' music. Aphex Twin's earlier work
is far more mature, which is why I prefer it. Drukqs is
pretty good though.

RDJ album is classic! it was the album that got me into
aphex twin. I have such fond memories of my first listen.
Something about 4, Fingerbib & Cornish Acid are very
comforting.

Call me a kid then, because I think this is one of the best

heard.

RDJ album is great no doubt, but I think Drukqs overpowers
it anyday. Still, that's a personal thing, is Drukqs,
whereas RDJ Album is just a good 'ol solid release for
everybody to hear.

the thing with the rdj album ( and CTD btw) is that they are
really RDJ going commercial-pop so the main reason many
people like it so much is the same reason people like me
start to like it less with time instead of the older work
wich gets more
natural-free-noboundaries-influential-expression over time

He eh, yes, I unwrapped my Birthday presents whilst
listening to RDJ album last year, so I would have even
happier associations with it :)

i had a similar problem with icbyd. after listening to it a
few times i got used to it, but i don't think that it's a
masterpiece

Yes! It's excellent music for occasions like that :-) The
music reminds me of the joy of... well... maybe something
like my first 10 birthdays. When you're a kid birthdays seem
so special. And listening to rdj-album gives me that same
sort of feeling.

It also reminds me of what christmas and newyears-eve used
to feel like when i was a little kid... man these songs are
all so great. The word comforting (as used by xlr) is
also very good for describing the feel of the album. Wow...

i get emotional just thinking about it now... i seriously
don't think i'll ever grow tired of this album. I'll
probably just grow to love it more and more... as i get
older, and my childhood seems even further away then it
seems now... the memories and feelings rdj-album can give me
will become even more precious to me :-)
