Have no idea how people can say this album hasn't been meticulously crafted and hasn't had enough love put into its mastering/writing/etc.

 

You might not like it but it's clearly good music. Sonically I think it's the second strongest album of his (after Rushup Edge). Negative opinions are fine but 'this is shit' isn't good enough I'm afraid.

one thing I've noticed about the negative nancys on here is that they seem annoyed because this album isn't delivering on THEIR expectations of what an Aphex album should be. never mind what Aphex wanted to do or perhaps opening themselves up to some new ideas, it's not what I personally want so waaa waaa waaa I'm gonna bitch and moan and say "not mind blowing" at least 3 times because basically I'm a stupid selfish cunt and all i ever say is waaa waaa waaa moan moan fucking moan i want SAW III blah blah blah.

 

bollocks to all of you.

 

If you read those comments you would see it has nothing to do with that. But yeah keep babbling your shit.

Less than a week! I can't listen to this track enough! I wake up in the middle of the night with it in my head. I love Aphex! I'm so excited. I've checked this god-4-saken website everyday for fucking YEARS with NO news and we're so close! Holy Shit! Oh my god! Anybody else feel like this everyday? Can't wait to hear that METZ track in HD glory! My speakers and headphones have no idea what they are about to be put through! Fanboy I am! BRING IT ALREADY!

Nice! I like the cost breakdown, too.

 

 

I got to say that is a lot of swag.

Production value really should be a secondary thought when listening to music as far as I'm concerned. If you don't like the mixing or mastering, fair enough but it does not at all take away from quality of composition. There have been plenty of tracks posted in ekt over the years that demonstrate that point perfectly. It just feels like some people listen to music for the wrong reasons.

Big Aphex special in today's Klassekampen. I'll see if I can upload some scans eventually.

 

Also, look at that press image, it's the Black Metal Aphex Twin! Probably especially for the Norwegian press, lol.

Haha, nah, that was apart of the Syro photoshoot together with those other photos. This one was also in the Oor interview.

However it's funny the Norwegian chose this one as the front cover :)

That is such a great picture. Aphex and Burzum are pretty much my two favourite musicians, it's like they've merged into one.

Aphex often said he was into metal, but which metal is that? No one asks him!

Really? I remember him saying the only guitar band he liked was Seefeel. That was about 21 years ago though.

Well he caught me in 1997 and I was a 100% black metaller back then so there must be some truth to that. But it's not a BM song hehe.

I hate to put words in his mouth when I don't have a source. But I'm pretty sure he talked about grindcore at least once. But how could he ever talk about it more thoroughly? Most of the interviewers who have access to Aphex don't know shit about metal.
