Dankjewel!

[@SaraFS432]

Nice...

[@meangene408]

And a broken Atari ST mouse

[@disectormusic]

There is also the korg MS-20 above the MPC60 , two dat / cassette players , Boss 303 Bassline Guitar pedal , handmade proto synth above his left hand and ofcourse, his door keys. ( Those keys were sampled for ibiza spliff and many more )

[@gavinobrien3654]

There's no point denying it, that's a fuckin belter of a track.

A what?

[@SimonGrowl]

He spared us the sorrow of this track, from 'i care because you do'. It would have been too much for us to take, back then. Only now are we finally able to handle the depth and loneliness of this story.

[@devonmccollister4860]

its an absolutely breathtaking tune.those notes seem to spread out into eternity

[@neighbor472]

The drum loop is so distorted and dirty and the way it slowly gets more and more dreamy as that beautiful synth comes in is perfect. Gives it a sort of lonely sci-fi vibe. One of my favorite aphex tracks for sure Ps play at .75

[@littlecoincidence7607]

Man, how did you find this trick? .75 is amazing

[@vico805]

nice

[@profaneecstasis]

I think this is my favorite Aphex track.

[@nonentity7709]

I literally can't imagine my life without Aphex Twin and Autechre. They are the only reason I still want to live. Sounds ridiculous, but that's how I feel

[@neighbor472]

Kholden Caulfield i think all the misery of life is worth it just because of all the little moments of beauty, joy, and curiosity it provides to you every now and then. I think their music evokes all of that and helps justify getting through the day

[@anoojanoojanooj]

We get saddened by the big things in life but forget to enjoy the little things

[@nonentity7709]

@Bighead Tylenol not sure if you tried to offend me or not. anyways, you can't really define my mindset having read 1 message of mine. when I had some tough times.

[@sourjellybaby4286]

Same here. Also Ibiza Spliff in these sessions.

[@vico805]

[@brownstone1944]

this is like the melancholic brother of acrid avid jam shred

[@Meshuggapeth]

brainstone that song is melancholy already; this one is haunting

[@BACTAonPC]

I was listening to this song with my eyes closed, half asleep, then I cracked them open for a split second, I saw the photo as a mom and a dad feeding a baby

[@Tianlong-hz5qq]

This is my top 7 Aphex Twin tracks. It sort of resembles how I feel, along with airflow.

[@wakegary]

This one is a percy. Zoomed past Pancake Lizard which is a big deal in my little universe. Spectacular piece of music. Love that raunchy ride.

[@sourjellybaby4286]

A bit of 80's synth, a bit of 90's acid rumble all adds up to one of my favorite AT tracks.

amazing track!!

[@devonmccollister4860]

ever notice how the last sound is the opening sound of "high hat tamclap"

[@eduardodelabanda5380]

Wooow

[@neighbor472]

A lot of these tracks seem like they couldve been grouped with each other. Its like he had like 6 albums planned and scrapped them. Theres a couple other tracks with the high pitched noise between them

[@basildrum]

GREAT SONG!!!

[@thepreventionist6962]

I love this so much.

[@Pafbar]

listening to an aphex twin from somewhere in the middle makes the song sound entirely different

[@nonentity7709]

how can youy know it?

[@Pafbar]

@@nonentity7709 like, you get used to the order in which your brain hears the different layers of the music when you hear them all get introduced, but when you start them all at once it sounds different to me

[@neighbor472]

Pafbar sounds like your brains been dancing a little bit, bud :^)

[@marko-gj1uj]

Is it like in my country where most of the music in movies sounds sped up.

Aphex doesn’t inspire me. He tells my subconscious to do what you want without maybe even consciously thinking that...

Where I can find this song? I can't find this on spotify

Am I the only one who doesn't think this is a sad song

[@vertsk8er419]

no.

[@poppyallgood6918]

Not at all. I detect no melancholy whatsoever. It's more, idk...pensive?

[@1d10tcannotmakeusername]

It sounds to me like reading something on the computer at 3 in the morning. Has that sort of "nebulous outer space haze, astral projected into the Wired" vibe to it

[@SkinnyEMedia]

Sounds more like Boards of Canada than Aphex Twin?

[@VIPHaterZz]

Mario Party samples?

[@Theaphextwin972]

What drum machine did he use to get those crunchy drum samples

[@Qwasd2000]

It honestly sounds like this specific 8-track drum looper where you use a knob to quickly move to the sounds on the tape but it probably isnt

[@Theaphextwin972]

​@@Qwasd2000who knows but that sounds like an intreseting instrument
