I was just thinking, what if Rich had continued in the same vein as Windowlicker, seems to stand out from any of his other stuff. Perhaps just me, but it seems to have a standard song structure-ish (totally unAphex) and be sort of it's own genre, not quite trip-hop, not entirely IDM.... Anyone agree? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah its different. the video makes it good too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
IDM does have structure. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah but I don't hear many chorus's in IDM. |

Check out his electro mix "Primaversound" @ Elusives server there is a nice version of windowlicker halfway, mixed in with other similarly groovey tunes (by him) and you will realise it is VERY aphex, i think. I´m just saying that if you relly look and listen you will see windowlickerness pepeered throughout his discography..... Mixing is a good way of appreciating the great tunes . |

I agree. I was really hoping that Drukqs was going to be more like Windowlicker. I really like the album but just expected something else. |

GJ Xammax... Im completely with you on that one.....I think windowlicker is a style of its own....and......I well.....I liked it alot the first 6 months i listened to it....now its a completet chapter in my book.....but I still think its a noice song......but it doesn't give me the same feelings that i get from for ex. Ziggomatic v17....I thing windowlicker is more Mainstream and i think its easier to like those songs....its something with windowlicker that almost everyone like... And im kinda gets bores after a while when listening to those songs....Am I the only one??? Dont think so..... I prefer song like mt saint michel and Ziggomatic....u know the song that was hard to like from the beggining but whom got better every time i listened to them.....Autechre anyone????? Well....this is just my oppinions.... "AND NONE OF THEM SHOULD BE TAKEN LIGHTY!!! hehe just kidding =) ..... I'm out!! |

Hmm...Windowlicker is most probably my favourite Aphex Twin track. The fact that it's more mainstream doesn't bother me, there's just something about it, it got me into Aphex Twin, and also IDM, maybe that has something to do with why I like it so much? |

|
windowlicker is the closest he has come to pop imo |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
windowlicker is a masterpiece.... the video is the best video ever made.. richard is the king. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Its quite Royskopp.Chillout,which is POPular. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its amazing really. One video singlehandedly makes every hip-hop video with dudes n chick n cars look like utter SHIT. Windowlicker should be shown to every crappy gansta rap type band and told "look......... whatever you´re gonn do, don´t bother... richards already doen it and warped it forever. try something new, lads" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well then if it is POP, proof that not all pop is bad! Actually, it is pop...it got to 16 in the UK Charts. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
amelie poulain makes me sick :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, he should definitely release an pop album |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes i think milkman and window are his best track... a pop album man yeahhhh !!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah Windowlicker helped me inte the genre as well......but thats all it did actually |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I guess I'm the only one who think that Windowlicker wasn't that great :/ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if u say the video wasnt great... yes you must be the only one... or i hope so.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'd say there's at least 1 billion ppl that think the same |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I find the more i listen to mt saint michael, the more boring it gets...don't get me wrong...it sure as hell aint a boring, I loved it at first and the more I listen to it, the more it loses its appeal. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Admittedly it was different, but isnt his best... |
||||||||
|
|

Windowlicker is very user friendly. It's one that all can enjoy, even those who don't realy "get" aphex twin if you know what I mean |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hmm, from my experience saw 1 is the most user friendly wlicker is pretty wicked to most of them |
||||||||
|
|

he played window licker when i saw him at reading over the summer. his whole set ruled. definately a highlight of that weekend |
||||||||

I thought 'Windowlicker' and 'Come to daddy' where part of a bet that he could do a 'pop song' and get it in the charts. I remember watching top of the pops and seeing Aphex Twin at number 18, had a clip of him with that cheeky watermelon grin of his. }:> |

Windowlicker is one of my favs - love the mastering and production on the disc - best sound quality of any RDJ release, bar none. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm still yet to get the E.P., I'm looking forward to hearing Nannou. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I brought the E.P alone for Nannou and Equation. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I loved Come To Daddy. Funny in a bit of a piss-take fashion and a great track to boot. Windowlicker I though was just taking the piss too far. A great video, yeah, but the track was just not cup of tea. *looks ashamed* |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i love windowlicker... it proves that afx can do pop. "pop" in the aphex twin sense of the word, of course. :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thats so wrong... i mean nolt anybody can get into windowlicker if they dont know aphex... its so strange, so aphex like... am i stupid or what?? its just fucking disturbing and awesome, but it can be as strange and difficult to get as ventolin for exemple, imo.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
So what if Drukqs was a continuation from the Windowlicky style? I would have liked it more, but it's still my favourite Aphex release. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's totally aphex like... And yeah, equation and nannou are both hectic tracks! Best aphex money spent yet! (Maybe that's takin it a lil far, but still money good spent) |
