180db

It's as classic an AFX riff as any I've heard.

Then again I have been listening to it for a few years now.

yeah, classic is a good description. The first thing I thought was that it sounds like oldskool AFX, with cleaner sound design.

it's a great DJ track, even though it's hard to time right with the fade in, and it's rather short for mixing out.

I used to listen to Vibervibed Synth Test a lot before Syro came out, so by the time I actually heard the album, it didn't quite have the impact on me as it should have.

Nevertheless, it's a great little track. I don't understand why it's getting so much hate. Sure, it lacks the depth that most RDJ tracks typically have, but depth should never determine whether a track is good or not. It's got a beastly groove and an unfuckwithable kick sound. What more could you ask for?

reminds me of AFX Tribal Kik off CWLP... lol

i think of it as a palette cleanser, and awesome

Agreed. It splits up the album into two distinct styles I think.

the track doesn't bother me at all but it sounds like something he made when he was 12

harsh.

did vibert co-write this? i don't know if i made that up in my mind or not.

i was thinking about this when i read in that recent interview he said "Aphex offered me record an album together, but I now refuse to because I'm afraid that he'll steal from me my ideas. Once we've worked together - for a track, and six months later, I heard this track, that i heard would go into the new Aphex twin album and authorship there stood only for Aphex; there was not a word about me and that's what I, in fact, wrote all the bass line and the drums."

the way he frames it as theft i interpreted as a joke.

it would be interesting though, if there are uncited collaborators on syro

doesnt really ad up. it was first played live mid 2000's, which would imply that it was slated for an aphex twin release years and years ago.

Yeah I'm pretty sure it was stated in a recent interview that this track is from 2005, also making it the oldest track on Syro.

I like it. for me it was the tune out of all the known to be on syro tracks that i was wanting to hear properly the most, compared to the metx and singapore tracks

it doesnt really go anywhere but still thumbs up here

It took me four years to paint like Raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child

said Picasso

well, that's what i like on 180db, that childish & simple dumb feel

It's like a fully digital analord, first I thought it was jarring now even the 'jarring' way the breaks stop and start make me revel in headnodding.

Pretty good.

I'm amazed how overrated this track is.

could be that you are just an idiot

the world was a better place when no one was able to voice their opinions on the internet

it's a pisstake rave track to me. I like it. it's goofy and mental and exactly as long/short as it should be. and I like the way it ends, with the beat just peacing out into 'verb.

agreed
