Redruth Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 (edited) Quote Karlheinz Stockhausen commented: “I heard the piece Aphex Twin of Richard James carefully: I think it would be very helpful if he listens to my work "Song of the Youth," which is electronic music, and a young boy's voice singing with himself. Because he would then immediately stop with all these post-African repetitions, and he would look for changing tempi and changing rhythms, and he would not allow to repeat any rhythm if it [was] varied to some extent and if it did not have a direction in its sequence of variations.[37] ” Richard responded: "I thought he should listen to a couple of tracks of mine: 'Didgeridoo,' then he'd stop making abstract, random patterns you can't dance to". Come to Daddy (Mummy Mix) imo is quite an amazing trac btw Edited March 30, 2010 by troon Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/54664-least-favorite-aphex-track/page/3/#findComment-1283192 Share on other sites More sharing options...
splesh Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 that third track was cool, kinda industrial in a way. reminds me of Throbbing Gristle I'm not sure what my least favourite Aphex track is.. I like pretty much all of it that I've heard.

Guest Masonic Boom Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 It's not even just the sample on Fantasia that's so great. It's the weird squeaky in-need-of-oiling machine noises that sound like a robot having a nervous breakdown.

Cryptowen Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 ^And it's pretty catchy. For a nonsense string of vowel samples, "lala la laah la la lala laaa" holds pretty well as an earworm against most lyrical songs. As for songs I don't care for, I forget what I posted before, but disregarding anything that's probably really old or an obvious joke track, I'm going to say Donkey Rhubarb.

At the very least you've got to love it just for the ending!

Guest Masonic Boom Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 Sorry, I'm in the "Windowlicker is kinda overrated" camp. Or if not overrated, at least overplayed. Yes, it's a fantastic track, especially if it catches you unawares, but it's nowhere near his best work.

chassis Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 Anyone who doesnt like windowlicker is clearly mental. Psht, bitchez be crazy. My least favourite has to be Tamphex (headphuq mix).

Guest Masonic Boom Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 See, I guess now I understand how you all feel about my Cornish Acid dislike. Because so many of the tracks listed here are so amazing! (just goes to show that even Aphex "shit" >>>>>>>>>>>> most other music) Tamphex just makes me laugh every time. It's such a weird sample, such an odd sound - I love the idea of menstruation triggering time travel, it's just *such* a weird advert and the way he picked that one snippet out of it to make it sound even conceptually stranger. Also, I invariably end up headbanging and shouting TAMPAX! TAMPAX! TAMPAX!!! when the break comes in.
