Guest dese manz hatin Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 The Beauty of Being Numb never seems to get a mention here, probably because only the second half is RDJ, but it is essentially godlike. It seems to incorporate nearly everything of the ICBYD era....analogue, messy machinery sounds, a kind of dreamy atmosphere and those perfect melodies while generally reatining that amazing earthy feel.

mcbpete Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 At The Heart Of It All was the first Aphex Twin related thing I ever heard and is still one of my favourite tracks of his. Real deep sound of melancholy running all the way though it, a beautiful track...
