Aphex Twin: minipops 67 [120.2][source field mix

i only listen to mini pops at +3 in traktor now

im pretty sure crease cunningham is mentioned in the vocoded lyrics. also weapons of mass destruction.

can you confirm this Master Richard?

edit

but seriously the song seems to be about disappointment or jadedness. how can one get bored of ecstasy itself? and whats left after that? some obligatory chill out time?

this :-D!

Lyrics r

EEEEeeeEEEEEEeeeeeee... i been here be foh..... with uuuuu

it sounds like he says.... eeeeeeooouuuu "I left my keys in the car"

That's cool Braintree.

"After I've been bored with youuuu..."

It's about his divorce.

As far as the vocals go, you can't understand (or understand what you want) because he cuts the attack on the plosive sounds (like 'P' 'T' 'D') so the 'real' lyrics could be anything, magic aphex once again IMO

"What did I do wrong, with you?"

I think my favorite parts are 1. as someone mentioned already, all the noisy junk that turns out is in the hi-hat sample when for a few seconds it plays by itself, and 2. the little melody that sticks around for just a moment or two at 1:18. Lushness

Real nice touch I just noticed... from 1:27 onwards, the shaker does these really quick triplets every now and then which adds extra delicious spice to the groove. Lovely! Trying not to overplay this (1-2 play every 2-3 days) but it's proving difficult.

Pretty amazed that minipops hasn't broken 1 million views on Youtube yet.

It has !! Nearly 2 million in the UK alone.

1.4 in the US, 1 in germany, 0.92 in france and so on down the list.

There would be more but maybe everyone's being good little aphexians and waiting for syro to come out so we don't spoil our album intro song by over listening to it.

yeah its amazingly sad that the all about the bass song probably gets a million views every day.

2:23. Should have a second "swell" with a quick fade. If I made this track, it would swell twice and then vanish. Instead we have one swell and a sustain which is just sick as fuck. This is why I listen to your music Richard. The absence of that second swell is genius and will haunt me forever. Fuck you. :-)

Have always been in love with this track, our Manchester Track! <3

Still can't understand I got the studio version of this sick track. When I listen to minipops it´s like Im waiting for the crowd just scream and chat. :)

If it's any consolation, I've listened to the Dubnobasswithmyheadman beta version so much lately that it feels strange when I listen to the finished album and it's missing the DAT glitch.

i used to have that with television's marquee moon. i grew up with the vinyl, so when i listen and don't hear 'and then i smiled at th-and then i smiled at th-and then i smiled at th-and then i smiled at th-' i get weirded out.

Ive totally exceeded the amount of time i can listen to minipops.

I dont even think its that good anymore.

yea, I said it, I dont care for minipops.
