:spiteful:

1. 6:17 - starts quiet and subdued, buzzy swells. The soft sound of something squishy. Quiet fuzzy drums. Very peaceful melody. Little blip percussions sprinkled in the buzz drums. I get the feeling of a peaceful electronic rain forest. It drags on for a little bit without changing much until the end where the instruments fizzle out in different ways.

 

2. 6:29 - faraway drums = high reverb + lowpass filter. Glitchy IDM clicks and crunches. Quiet melody tones drenched in reverb. Glitches start to become more prominent forming a stronger rhythm. High attack and sustain on lots of background tones while the melody subsides. The track rises and falls a few times with the stacking and removal of the mentioned instruments.

 

3. 6:04 - This is where I started to doubt that this was actually made by Aphex Twin. This is another quiet and peaceful track and very well crafted, but the sounds used in this track seem very commonplace; as in synth sounds and basses that I've heard before and standard sounding software piano, as well as DJ scratching. Although I don't think this was made by RDJ, this is still an enjoyable track to listen to.

 

4. 2:41 - (didn't Reel Big Fish have a song with this name?) Low glitchy reverb bass moans and growls. Airy delicate melody floating on a bed of bass notes floating a few octaves below. Gravely speech samples of a conversation. High pitched delayed portamento stabs, (like in analogue bubblebath). This is a short song.

 

 

Overall I like this, and will listen to it regardless of it's questionable authenticity.

so just to clarify, these are the exact same track length times as the commonly available bootleg found on rapidshare called 'Aphex 2004 warp promo' you can find a link to this download in an earlier post of mine in this thread in spoiler tags. And it is definitely not aphex twin, it's pretty obvious about 5 seconds into the 1st track

so just to clarify

 

is this actually those "aphex warp december promo" (or whatever) tracks from the internet circa 2004

>Implying that Arc2's copy is not a fake

 

no, inquiring into weather or not they are the same fake. Which somebody above just confirmed they are the same.
