Aphex Twin - Crying In Your Face

[@gamebotpocket]

My dad gave me a huge playlist of songs in 6th grade for my mp3 player. After losing my mp3 player I thought I'd never find them again but today I found this one and that's crazy!

[@geokaker9630]

awesome

[@itsenzo3000]

Congratulations on finding at least one!

[@lacosingalerneb8543]

Your dad is so cool!👍😁

[@frethero19]

2 yrs late but music like this has its way of finding its way back into your life, generally at the most seemingly random unexpected times, but a time none the less, where that music seems to make everything make sense, even if only temporarily.

[@philafx82]

Your dad is awesome

[@scruffyp9480]

He puts actual personality into his tracks which is surprisingly rare.

[@joeyfdh9890]

cause personality is rare, thats why

[@bFOURdwZEROlf]

The way it feels feels, is he's speaking into our soul.... with sound

[@antti3779]

yeah its like the songs have vocals or lyrics , deeper meaning.

[@ahmadmalaki8364]

He understands music more than most of us do And it makes it even funnier when he claims that he has no idea what he is doing

AFX/Aphex Twin/Polygon Window/Caustic Window, whatever projects he had worked on, RDJ was simply the most creative, unique, outlandishly analogue artists out there.

I don't know why I'm obsessed with this genre of music, but it really captures my imagination in a strange way. It reminds me of being in a lucid dreaming state and hearing random noises and remixes of all the songs that I've heard in the past year...

[@conallhomer6962]

My favourite Aphex Twin track right now has to be Vordhosbn. I also love windowlicker obviously. Because my dad used to play it when I was a little kid and it was so weird at the time. But that’s Aphex Twin for ya! 👍🏻

[@zacharydetrick7428]

omg vordhosbn amazing!!!! i also like "on" a lot

[@undergroundsequence]

I love how this song starts out as sort of a dance track, like when you hear the intro, you think “wow, this song is gonna be dope!” And as the song continues, it gets more emotional. When the drums disappear and you’re left with the synths and pads, you’re most likely to get emotional. I get emotional every time because of how beautiful this song is.

[@slendr_playr9183]

This just popped into my recommendations after like God knows how long and I'm more than thankful it did. This track just sounds so melancholy, like a far away inhabited galaxy crying out for someone, anyone, to come into contact with for centuries only to be met with the cold silence of space, slowly snuffed out by their kind's own hubris. That is when the messages finally reach us as we too are shouting into the cosmos, a glimmer of hope as we listen for an answer that was yet to come. Alas, it was too late, for it took traveling hundreds of thousands of lightyears to reach us, as we are the last beings to hear the cries of a long forgotten civilization.
