Aphex twin - Xtal (Solo Acoustic Cover) Retake

[@T-cophony]

This is latest version I hope you enjoy it kzbin.info/www/bejne/mp3IhqGfmbyqrKs

[@krysidian]

Thank you so much for this. This cover will stick for me for a very, very long time.

[@ritatatam3068]

I love your cover version, tomorrow my kid will listen to it. 🙏🏼

[@cyu0249]

Same. 🙏 can you consider doing more covers like this? Maybe a Burial cover?

[@element5092]

Love this

[@brunoautran_89]

I could never imagine an acoustic version of this would sound so good. Amazing!

[@Ceb773]

Maybe it's just because I'm hungover and depressed but this is making me tear up.

[@norinobuyoshioka]

I am sober and not depressed, but this is making me cry as well...

[@elotrosearch]

Feels, feels everywhere.

[@КлиментийНовиков]

love is everywhere, man

Hmmm. I hope you people have health insurance. You all remind me of school shooters. Try to seek help for your erratic temperaments:(

[@ricksharp1716]

this is incredible, you've managed to get all the little melodies in there too. makes me appreciate the original even more. great work champ.

[@Bati_]

Definitely! Greet covers always make the listener appreciate the original work even more!

[@TkrakenT]

Xtal is like a blue flame,dancing with you, telling you something you always wanted to hear but never understood.

[@the.bloodless.one1312]

Find myself coming back to this every so often, year after year, and I gotta say, this arrangement is almost just as good as the original. Xtal has always had a very special place in my heart, bringing me back to hazy early mornings, just before sunrise, after partying all night, listening to it and the rest of the album. That being said, it’s very rare I hear an arrangement/cover here on KZbin that blows me away so much that I want to listen to it almost as much as the original.

[@fineholohan5715]

Same man I revisit this every now and then (plus a few more that have stuck with me). Such a wonderful cover, of a tune I absolutely love, with memories somewhat similar to your own. Long may this cover last! :P

[@clo1lysm]

I'm sure Richard is proud listening to this, nice job

[@SkyNines]

Holy shit. This honestly brought tears to my eyes. Absolutely beautiful cover. Xtal is by far one of my favourite songs.. and to hear it acoustically... is... wow. Holy shit man.

[@AGleamInRanks]

I've been wanting to do a classical cover similar to this and after analyzing the main chord progression I came up with a six string tuning that is very close if not identical to his using the same setup: Bb D C F F C Capo on the fifth fret, spider capo at the twelfth fret covering strings two and five. Hope this helps anyone else trying to recreate this tuning

[@DarianSpencer]

Dammit! I thought I knew guitar lingo well enough. I've only played for 2 years now but thought I'd seen it all! But here I am, wondering what in the hell a spider capo is.

[@jedimasterclinton3183]

why not it’s a capo that has like six little legs that can move independent of each other, so for example you could put a spider capo on your guitar but only capo strings 1-3 while strings 4-5 aren’t capoed (?) and still open. I hope that makes sense.

[@matsch555b]

I think he plays this with whole step down of CGDGBD.

[@sg9141]

Is like a song u play when think of all your lives memories pass by in a slide show

[@TheBeachGhost]

This is the best cover I have ever seen on youtube.

[@stephendoran2690]

here's me thinking it was impossible to cover this song,well done good sir

[@edhunter9073]

This is sublime. Amazing version in its own right and shows the brilliance of the original composition.

[@jonathansoboleski6016]

Tabs or it didn't happen ...please.

感動です。 本当に感動です。 アンビエントテクノが、アコースティックギターでカバーされて、まるで違和感がないです。 思い出の曲がこんな風に聴けて本当にうれしいです。 良い曲をありがとうございました。

[@TheWONDERBOYZ1]

5 years old and this is still my favorite aphex twin cover

[@shay2396]

10 years old and this is still my favorite aphex twin cover

[@attalal]

I literally shed tears at this. One of the best covers I've ever heard. One of my all time favorite songs too. Thank you for doing this!

[@XFry333X]

I remember finding this gem years ago. After reviewing some of the older music I would frequently listen to, this video came to mind and I just had to check it out again. Still incredible to this day.

[@ThatJoeGClift]

I have been coming back to this music video since I first heard it in a class in 2010. Still absolutely brilliant.

[@cocoarecords]

[@FabioTatti]

Beautiful faboulous amazing but I’m Italian and I don’t know more other words to explain how is spettacolare bellissima fighissima sta canzone

[@hardware199]

I just can`t decide which version I find more beautiful.

[@akhttkn]

l love aphex twin「Xtal」. This version　is great , too.

[@goldstreetsnyc]

everytime i watch/listen to this, it puts me in a headspace where everything is just that much better. thank you

[@mattsullivan8996]

Great cover 🥹 impossible not to tear up while this is playing

[@aphexcard1895]

This might be the best find of my many late night, KZbin rabbit holes. You've provided a new and profoundly beautiful angle to an already profoundly beautiful song. Bravo, my friend.

[@somalicat]

I've seen other covers of this song and thought "I think there's a reason why he didn't write it on guitar", but this is absolutely beautiful. Great job.

[@anirvandeva]

The artist playing is T-cophony. Check his beautiful compositions and covers on his channel kzbin.info

[@donatellabarberi5467]

Che bella musica! :))))

[@therealjerms]

Very, very beautiful. Very, very inspiring. I lost count the times I've listened to this. Thank you.

[@agentxyz]

i've had your cover in my favorites for a long while

[@ethangaines2658]

Amazing, you played it very well. This is one of my favorite songs and your acoustic rendition of it is nothing less than flawless.

[@robincooch6069]

Amazing really beautiful... one of my fav dance tracks of all time perhaps made even more beautiful

[@ZacharyDenman]

this is an amazing track originally, but you have added another dimension to it. fantastic work! beautiful guitar playing!

[@rebeccacampbellmusic936]

Genius! So beautiful - well done

[@AKAtAGG]

RDJ (aphex twin) is not a musician (according to popular press). and yet, almost every song he's ever done is covered on YT by quality musicians over and over again. This is my fave Xtal cover.

[@kelixe6440]

how is he not a musician bruh...

[@11123fsd]

Everyone recognizes him as one of the best musicians ever mate

[@AKAtAGG]

@@11123fsd now, yes. Back in the day, publications like mixmag were not quite as sure.

[@dMoniker]

[@ear-full5911]

Lovely! What a beautiful surprise!

[@Terraceband]

Can't stop watching this. Man you are incredible! this has been my favorite song since 1992 and you have made this my favorite version. Such intensity. Richard is probably very proud of you. if you ever come to Canada would love to work with you.

[@Odenian]

I consider Xtal to be one of my favorite songs of all time. This cover is brilliant. Does anyone know if chords/tabs have been shared yet?

[@jamflowman8283]

I completely agree

[@bjorklikeskidneys8496]
