Aphex Twin - Vordhosbn

@@uhuju1 And also the fact that he is reversing it is very interesting. If you listen up until 1:14 the higher notes are more slow and calming and the lower bass notes more fast paced and chaotic.

It also sounds exactly like where Charli xcx takes her inspiration from, she uses a bass noise like that in so many of her songs now

[@jakevainio3943]

From a music theory standpoint, that feeling comes not only from the tone and timbre of the bass note, but most importantly the fact that the actual note being played isn’t the tonic note of the scale, or what most people would hear as “home”. Instead, Richard gives us a minor 6th the entire time, prolonging that sense of need for resolution and leaving you hanging in the air, waiting for that “home” note

[@dlrss1v274]

Aphex Twin, also known as England's Richard James, was once a bushranger of all turpitude and disharmony, and he made records, particularly 1993's gorgeous Selected Ambient Works 85-92, that ceded the course of electronic music. With Drukqs, James delivers his most cadaverous noise of all: a double CD, thirty-track fabric of absolutely sycophant song titles, gratuitously weird sounds surfeited with a misdemeanor. Among the fans of IDM, or Intelligent Dance Music, as this sort of musical obloquy is lamentably labeled like he hadn't gotten some shuteye, rumor has it that James slowly coagulated this record with bedamned outtakes that have been esculenting up space on his hard drive for years, then released the album as a deal-breaker with his label, Warp. Or perhaps the explanation for the rambunctious incoherence of the termagant album lies in its quaggy, unfunny clepe. Either way, he should have never done Drukqs, because his new noise mostly just sounds brobdingnagian and like a obstreperous subterfuge.

One of the most awesome ambient video ever made

[@adrianmarie1983]

I remember when this was new. No one had ever heard anything like it before. It still holds up almost 20 years later Hopefully it stays timeless

[@GeedorahA]

2019 n still can't get enough of this song. Feels like a new song each time I listen to it.

[@StaviKay]

I'm so glad I discovered this piece of art.

[@scottyunitedboy2925]

If Mozart had been born in 1970 and had good access to synthesizers he would be making music like this.

Here I am again, watching this legendary video 🌀

[@conallhomer6962]

Aphex Twin is as good as it gets for pure electronic music.

[@arbiter628]

1:36 - 1:58 is the BEST part!

[@tonythrowaway3327]

drugs are bad but druqks is great!

[@noctissama3146]

+Do you even Rift as is kassadin :D

[@Nophera]

+Do you even Rift Drugs are great! but druqks are great!

[@molochz]

+Nophera Druqks on drugs is even better!

[@MrAphex117]

Think what you meant to say is "not all drugs are good ok, some are great".

[@shredderly]

I can do both, its fine.

[@Kayametra]

I've always appreciated the idiosyncratic weavings of the frenzied drill n bass percussion with the smooth synths on the RDJ Album and Drukqs. Creates a cool effect

[@spunkenschwarz8765]

Every bar different from others.Drum,reverb,swing,bass,melody is unbeliaveble for 2001.I think AFX is a prophet.

[@carlosbuchlein]

Almost. But you must consider that Autechre and Venetian Snares work in the same direction at this time.

[@domidigital]

Gives me the shivers even after so many years.

Це був класний стрим Олега Броварського від 19.11.2023, неділя. Дякую, олеже.

[@homogenic]

caught this live on his set in lisbon 2 days ago.. never felt so much euphoria running thru me

[@ohmbettafish323]

You don't understand how long I've been looking for this song/video combo.

[@cuevable]

I keep coming back to this, magic combination. ♥️

[@BroKEnCaPSLoCk1]

Just the percussion alone is just so layered and complex. I can't even...

[@davetinoco]

Life feels like this...the shitty parts go slow...and the great moments go fast...but all in all...we are on the exact same train...

[@refxsed]

True

[@tervdelagos3207]

The goosbumps this song gives me...

[@Threshroge]

I'm sure you don't want to hear THIS type of comment, but I burst out crying when I hear this song. Almost like I cant escape the coming of time. The song was so important to me before I made a lot of blind wrong decisions. Also, at the same time, it feels like being in a trapped lonely chamber, where I desired to be. I don't cry because of discomfort, I cry in satisfaction. The song is just too beautiful.

[@origamigek]

might be my fav Aphex Twin track, or fav IDM track in general

[@ollysmoviesandmusic2047]

This song is now 21 years old. Still mind-blowing to this day.

[@fightaman7]

Masterpiece of song , and the video is perfect for it
