Guest Ultravisitor Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 i couldn't decide which is better. it depends on my mood. BUT, in terms of how technically genius it is, autechre come first. hands down. they're too advanced to be ignored or slagged off. and whats with the dislike of untilted and campfire headphase. i love them both. if you dont think boc are good listen to ''everything you do is a balloon'' and shut up. who cares if other artists influenced others. i love picking out homages and such like in music. it makes me happy.

Dale Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 (edited) I have to say I prefer Richard to Autechre. I'm not doing a fully detailed explanation, it'll take too long. I really like Autechre don't get me wrong. They are the most unique sounding duo I have ever heard, and I have the utmost respect for them as well. Actually, I think I am the only one here with this opinion. cya Edited December 12, 2007 by Dale Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/28910-why-ae-is-better-than-afx/page/4/#findComment-614089 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest AOOproductions Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 AFX is my favorite musician ever. When I hear songs Girl/Boy song, Windowlicker, Laughable Butane Bob, Vordhosbn, and Mt Saint Michel + Saint Michaels Mount I become suspended from myself(emotionally and physically). I will admit that Autchre has had a more consistent career and they're albums on the whole are likelybetter. But AFX just stands as some kind of god like figure to me and he will always be the electronic music flag holder in my eyes.

Guest burnibus Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 AE>APHEX>FSOL>THE ORB>KRAFTWERK>PUBLIC ENEMY>JOY DIVISION>MAD LIB (and his various projects)>ODB hehehe this made me chuckle, just cos for everyone they would have such a different view, but quite insightful look into your tastes. The truth be known, neither are better than the other they make very different music. AFX is awesome and has incredible skills but ae are just as awesome with equivalent skills. the only thing that seperates them is taste really. i have my favourite, as you guys all do but i dont think for one second that they are "better", just what i prefer.

But AFX just stands as some kind of god like figure to me and he will always be the electronic music flag holder in my eyes. I understand you there.. with his music, I can just seem to switch off to everything concerned with "reality", and get lost with it all. I know that sounds all hippy-like, but I think about every time I listen to both SAW I and II.. and really to me, its a great moment. Autechre seem very mechanical/technically produced most of the time (to me anyway). I can't just switch on an Autechre tune and listen to it with little or no concentration. Sometimes I just like to listen to some Aphex Classics, and no concentration needed as my mind is fucked over from a busy and shitty day at work.. it's all there I need in the relaxed listening experience. If I am in a mood to listen to something absolutely mental to get that rush I require, there's a range I can choose from. I mean RDJ creates that enchanting feel to the tracks he makes. AFX excites, surprises and most of all delivers all the bloody time Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/28910-why-ae-is-better-than-afx/page/4/#findComment-615425 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Frequency Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 Incunabula ... when Aphex was more on techno AE was create true electronic music and experimental music. About the electronic music or electronic music i think Orbital's Snivilisation or Orb's Orbus Terrarum or even FSOL's ISDN was more experimental, abstract or alien than Aphex for that time. I think lot of you here are under 25. Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/28910-why-ae-is-better-than-afx/page/4/#findComment-622545 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rook Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 I was thinking about this thread recently. I have decided that some of the end parts in Sublimit remind me of the drums in Children Talking. And that the beginning of Peek sounds a little like AE to me. I was also thinking, that with the possible exception of the Rushup Edge, and maybe SAW, RDJ doesn't really have a single release that is pure gold 100% all the way through. *ducks* RDJ has a lot of brilliant stuff. And is probably one of my top ten fav musicians, but when I listen to Drukqs, the highlights are very obviously tracks like Vorhosbn and Ziggomatic, and he has some nothingness tracks in between them. Even the RDJ album, I never liked Goon Gumpas. And I rarely listen to To Cure a Weakling Child, since the one on Come to Daddy is so much better. Or on I Care Because You Do, which I have a growing appreciation for. I absolutely love Start as you Mean to, but genuinely hate The Waxen Pith. This is one of the reasons I like the Rushup Edge so much, very consistent I think. As opposed to Ae which have consistently grown with each release and produced an entirely new and innovative sound with each release. But still, Ae and Aphex are miles from their closest adversary in terms of electronic music I think.
