Guest Caustic Posted July 1, 2007 Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 Fanboy thread,ahoy. What are your favourite sounds? Prepare for my excruciatingly technical definitions. My favourites are: The high pitched "Weewooowaaaa" on XMD5A from 5:00 onward. The swishing synthy wave-like sounds on Pitcard. Whatever the fuck Vodka was constructed out of. Indescribable,really. The hollow metal clangs on Alberto Balsalm. The really cheap,tinny percussion on Hangable Auto Bulb. The high pitched,echoey melody on Butane Bob. The sequence on Polynomial-C. God,it's beautiful. The organ and really abrasive percussion from Carn Marth. The melody to Yellow Calx. That sorta sounds like a phone being dialed. And the Steel drums on Donkey Rhubarb. Top 10. Not necessarily in order. Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/23030-favourite-aphex-sounds/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salvatorin Posted July 1, 2007 Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 I really like: Those semi-harmonic pitches near the end of Girl/Boy (£18 Snare Rush Mix) the trademarked high-pitched synths, but especially in Ziggomatic v17 the drums in #3 from MfM the twanging synth sounds at around 5:07 in MSM+SMM at the end of Carn Marth, that scratchy pitch that comes in between every beat the beginning of #7 from MfM the bassy swirls in Milkman the second clang of the ventolin beat (gives me a killer headache though) basically everything about the Bucephalus beat Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide Salvatorin's signature Hide all signatures Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/23030-favourite-aphex-sounds/#findComment-479649 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Caustic Posted July 1, 2007 Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 (edited) AB5-A2 sounds like a really minimal version of Vodka. I love it. EDIT: Fuck I forgot to mention the really wicked bit on Avid Jamshred. And the guitarish-sound on Arched Maid.
