This is what you feel when you're ill during school period.

Ngl extremely accurate

[@raimundopuelma4383]

how did you come up with such an accurate description

[@L30NBL4NK]

@@raimundopuelma4383 Well I've often listened to this song when I was at the computer school, and when I was ill, I thought everything was getting slower, and I've thought about this music too 😆

[@Bhatt_Hole]

So true! I had projectile/explosive diarrhea during my O-levels, and this song kept me moving forward. A gift, for sure.

[@danileuenberger5620]

appearently aphex twin himself said once that a lot of his tracks are better at 33rpm instead of the usual 45rpm.. but in this way he can put more songs on his lp's

[@1Nicezera]

thats crazy.. i still discover new things about aphex since i started listening to it this year (2020)

I mean this sounds a lot more “ambient” than it sounded originally so it make sense to me

I like listening to that chair being pulled on 66 % speed

It's like someone smacking you with a 2x4

Alberto Balsam but made by Portishead or Massive Attack

When I listened to his songs, for some reason I always felt like they were supposed to play a bit slower, now I know that they were actually supposed to be slower, what an interesting find.

[@BiluTheDoG]

this song at 33RPM forces me to calm down, it's amazing

[@ChrisKogos]

What's with the 33 and a third bpm mixes of Aphex Twin tracks?

[@viktorflorianschantz4084]

Here's a 45 rpm mix I made on Acrid Avid Jam Shred: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jGquaKl-eruMoZY

[@tiko5876]

Chris Kogos from what I’ve read. In the 90’s Richard gave an interview and stated in it that most of his songs were meant to be played at 33 rpm, he sped up the music after making it to fit more on the album

[@pabloplato]

RPM, not BPM.

[@Rensence]

fancy seeing you here, also yeah, they were meant to play at 33rpm.

[@schormu]

i see you on every alberto balsalm related video lol

somehow it feels like the snares don't fit, they sound too much like gunshots

Original speed is 1.5x.

Bliss.

[@mace3988]

What is this bs. Alberto Balsam at 33 rpm is the normal tune. Which you would know if you'd ever actually used a record player.

[@maastashake420]

....but it's not?

[@aaronturner9976]

true, 33 rpm seems to just be peoples way of saying slowed down now for some reason
