This really proves that the music of Richard D. James is not all about the amazing sounds. When you cut the melodys down to clean simple acustics its stille 100% epic. I have been listening to this cover some times for three years now and i will ceep on doing that. I take my hat of to you sir for doing this beautiful cover and i love what you did with the video.

[@docteurGhost]

+Anton Markgren Thank you for this comment.

[@yobrethren]

It's still not seriously complicated, it's 99% rythm in the music that makes Aphex Twin Aphex Twin. You can make whatever sounds as long as they kinda hit the note and frequency (or at least one of the things) and you can ryhtmically hit these sounds, that's all needed for AFX! Just saw this video of some guys chilling in a living room basically covering Vordhosbn using two guitars, some keys, computer, percussion and cheap toy melodica. Bass is your usual guitar, main melody is lead guitar and melodica, and percussion and computer and keys make everything Vordhosbn, it's as bare bones as it could get, and i loved it

[@Brazen1234]

shut up bro@@yobrethren

[@magau3698]

This is so good. Made me cry. Feels more empty and distant… damn. Aphex twin just knows, man. He just knows.

[@pseudocaveman]

I love how this has a post-rock feel to it.

[@rageagainstthedyingoftheli7956]

always coming back to this one

[@minifignick938]

Can't stop listening to this I now know what a Eno version of a Aphex Twin track would sound like !

[@cliffordbillington4937]

Was thinking the same thing. Very enoesque

[@jamflowman8283]

best way to put it

[@easterislandhead9579]

Don’t forget the Fripp

[@neilmacleanok]

Suddenly its Mogwai!

[@MojoRisingTV]

YES!!!!!! I love both

[@bekafatod]

and the constant noise in the background like nine inch nails a bit

[@jorisw_]

Also Tool - Lost Keys like

[@matheusespindola8812]

10 years later, I thought the same thing

[@VM0451]

Now this is a cover. Actual creativity with the instruments used and the video that goes with it. Not just literally playing the song.

[@kp7117]

Vezonmodder Your 1000% correct

[@Maxxon89]

That Scout

[@JeremyBlant]

The blue light thing is an E Bow. Will sustain a note for as long as you want. Also used on u2's with or without you during the verses

[@drgenescottlives]

So was this the device that got the sounds on the fripp/eno "evening star" album?

[@shinymetalrods_]

the edge used a guitar with a built in sustainer, actually

[@je7647]

Im not sure if it was an ebow but im not saying it wasnt but there are many techniques that can get that sound

[@omgitsXile]

Wow, youtube's recommendations have been taking me on an Aphex Twin covers binge - this is definitely one of the best and that's even ignoring the amazing video you've put together as well! Here's a 7 years late bit of praise, you're awesome :)

[@cjnf11]

Dude, but did it show you the most amazing AFX cover - "Alberto Balsalm Chair Cover"?

[@omgitsXile]

@@cjnf11 hahaha yes it came through for me the other day!

[@grug2085]

damn this is the most relaxing thing i’ve watched in my life. a 10 yr old yt video covering an aphex twin song

[@navojd1]

Because in the end, it was never about yourself but rather your surroundings and your choices. You're here only for a short period of time, make the most of it

[@GhotiCan]

@HexagramMan I appreciate your thoughtfulness, but that's not actually what quantum physics is about.

[@lemarz8006]

@HexagramMan If we never know what we don't know than there is an infinity of things we don't know...

[@sebastianhoyos2817]

This is one of the most beautiful things I've heard.

[@codyking4848]

5 years later, and I still listen to this. Always loved your work, Dr. gHøsT. Your version has a creeping overtone not present in the original, a dark sort of sadness. It gets me every time. I love it.

[@polyphonyepiphany1909]

Stunning Cover of an epic song! Been listening to this for YEARS! May it forever be on the KZbin.

[@vonjager]

Six years, and I still listen to this in my darkest times. It's amazing how you can put so much heart into just a few chords and an e-bow. That is talent, my friend. You've helped far more people than you could ever know. Thank you.

[@bragee]

So BBC put Rubharb on loop for months. That's pretty british... Love it. Oh.. great cover man, it's a big like. Cheers from Italy.

[@KyleBillie]

My dad passed away on August 17th 2024. Im having more panic attacks and these sounds give me peace. See you soon dad 🕊

[@УльянаТВ775]

The most beautiful guitar decks i've ever seen

[@sash0047]

*heard

[@Kostaki05]

Bro turned an already mesmerising song that originally consisted of a few synths into an equally as beautiful cover that at first you’d think wouldn’t work as well as it does here. Good stuff 😩

[@Maxxon89]

This is painfully beautiful.

[@Fenix-on4ny]

Love this so much. Stays in Mind for Years...

[@Tryler_]

Really well done man, something very deep I feel but can’t explain it with words

[@siliconstate]

This track is a regular for me, it stirs something deep within, thank you so much.

[@dcaabd]

very creative. thx for posting.

[@vanillacoffee]

Imagine you’re driving in a car listening to static on the radio, but then you listen to a triangle. Your body has so much water in it.

[@ShadeCandle]

This is my favourite KZbin comment.

[@cliffmccoy8562]

Awesome cover. I've always loved this song. I love it even more now. Thank you so much.

[@JReedC243]

Beautifully made. I never knew such perfect replication of this song could be done all on guitar

[@docteurGhost]

Thank You for your message.

[@a_silly_birb]

I didn’t know how this was gonna turn out... this is just amazing

[@robayre482]

I love that the music Richard makes can inspire people to create beautiful pieces of music like this

[@cadism902]

I love the slow intro

[@docteurGhost]

Take Time to drink a coffee ThankX

[@digitalblasphemy1100]

a masterpiece given special treatment. i love it

[@nestawebster4738]

I sometimes miss listening to you play this song. It's like a constant friend. Thank you, have a blessed day.

[@HACKERSInc]

That’s just so beautiful

[@joesteers4348]

Think I might go and get a coffee.....

[@sniperslim]

Ryan Plethra left for coffee and never came back

[@DashiQueen]

did u get that coffee

[@JHess]

just found this in april 2020. amazing and much needed.

[@752257nb]

Always find myself coming back to this cover. Well done & thank you for sharing.

[@troyjinn4469]

Amazing, slightly becoming more fond of this than I am to the original. I love the layering, when It gets nearer to the end and more dense I can pick apart what is making each sound and it's just beautiful. Great Work.

[@docteurGhost]

Don't ever stop. You have great talent and this video woke something in me that made my creative writing of the day a lot easier and more enjoyable. Thanks for this art piece.

[@PoisonInc]

I adore everything about this video.

[@dokuya1300]

Omg one of my favorites... so nice and feeling very good

[@freudianslip4588]

holy moly dude. this is absolutely amazing.

[@hasenpfefferoni]

Nearly eight years later and still one of the Greatest covers of All Time

[@celesteforslund7500]

such a beautiful and amazing cover..

[@dugp1862]

Listened to this on repeat...congrats!. This is perfection without maiming the original.

[@mUbase]

OH THIS IS GORGEOUS. beautiful rendition. x thankyou so much. thankyou. xxx

[@Tylscifur]

I really like this video. Sometimes I watch it while I drink my morning coffee. It's a really mellow way to start the day.

[@ZkuaderI]

best cover of Aphex Twin

[@FruitloopLeviathan]

Ah you understood the song!

[@MrMichaelSVK]

I have no words how amazing this is...i feel like in heaven.

[@garrisonmedia]

I was very skeptical when I saw a link to this. But you have done an amazing job re-imagining this classic track. Simply beautiful.

[@MojoRisingTV]

This is fucking Art. Puts other shit people get rich off to shame. Fucking Art.

[@newcleous]

I have heard many "Rhubarb" edits....this one is in the top two. I can't decide. Super beautiful job! Makes me want to run out and buy a guitar and learn! Thank you for all your hard work, practice, your video, and for posting it here so we all can enjoy your talent!

[@Dr.Hoffman]

Amazing cover of a transcendental ambient classic

[@ba3audiovisualartist66]

Great selection of guitars! It's like you picked them all out as if you were in the oil section at your local art store on a quest for your own unique pallet. Having said that, it's no surprise your musicianship reflects this understanding of the six string in both acoustic and electric forms and that you were able to do such a masterful interpretation of a song that has allowed me to keep the car on the road many times when I struggled not to. I can't even begin to calculate exactly how many hours behind the steering wheel I've spent looping this one Aphex Twin track, roaming far and wide until the bull passed. It is the perfect sublime cross pollination of JS Bach and Brian Eno and still entirely its own thing. Thank you so much for this and especially to Richard James.

[@lemondom1548]

This was really fun to watch Thank you for such originalness, Awsome camera angles/quality. Wicked ideas man. love it

[@Demention94]

Well done! Beautiful grey guitar..

[@richardbourne6660]

The most beautiful thing I've heard in 2020 😍

[@docteurGhost]

Thank you !

[@MrGreen489]

​@@docteurGhostU should start making new videos again :)

[@ziggypop79]

I’d really like to hear you do more from these albums. Cheers

[@aeriquewastaken]

2020, both Rhubarb and this cover are as epic as ever.

[@shakimbush8827]

Dude good shit man great job. Really great listen.

[@binsitt]

Awesome, really well done, thank you very much!!!

[@psiloseptagon]

you beautifully brought this song to life

[@kyledrums]

I too was skeptical of this when first clicking. Holy cow was I proven wrong. You nailed it, in every way possible. Fantastic job. Nice gear too!

[@minifignick938]

So glad I have just found this Beautiful version of a beautiful track Many Thanks

[@edthewave]

I'd like to hear (or make) a cover in "just intonation". This piece is just screaming "use pure harmonic intervals". Great job! One of the most beautiful and sublime Richard D. James compositions.

[@thestradiosmiles]

Is this a nice way of saying please tune your instruments? If so then yeah agreed.

[@keithklassen5320]

@@thestradiosmiles It is not that. Look up TET (Twelve-tone Equal Temperament), Just Intonation, and be amazed and humbled about an aspect of music you took for granted.

[@thestradiosmiles]

@@keithklassen5320I know what equal temperament is. I made that comment (over a year ago) because his high e-string is a few cents flat. I have absolutely no clue why you would assume ignorance on behalf of others because that's typically what condescending assholes do. Are you a condescending asshole?

[@PlutoniumSlums]

Please upload a new video you legend 😢

[@chainsawvsgod384]

Incredibly nice.

[@maxellaroe]

This is so beautiful. It brought me to tears in the exact same way the original version does, and you played it so magnificently and brought so much life to it. I don't know if you'll see this comment, but I hope you do because I'm truly moved by this cover. You've earned yourself a subscribble, and I'm glad I've found your channel, even if you haven't posted on it in some time.

We are so lucky to have each other. I like to imagine that if one day the human race does go extinct and some advanced civilization stumbles upon our ruins, they will find this video and understand who we were at our best. . . .
