  1. hipster microgenre That's a dismissive way to put it. I'm from Chicago and some of the communities here are completely consumed by footwork. It's not my music but for some people it's pervasive throughout their culture -- far from hipster fodder.
  2. go to the aphex twin warp net dude. thanks a bunch, but not quite what I'm asking Just buy the track you cum sock. It’s 1.35 for the mp3.
  3. I will always hate a song that has the same line repeated 10 thousand times and don’t give a fuck about how tapped in to somebody else’s culture you think you are. Go fuck your enlightened self. I from the south side of Chicago, by the way. But I’m really impressed by how open minded you are in whatever crevice of hell youre typing from.
  4. I can't deny that he certainly does make the point that haters are his motivation. His argument is clear and unyielding. And if you weren't convinced after the first 20 times you hear that sample, the next 700 repetitions are there to drive the argument home. Compelling, indeed. But his motivation to do what?? To create post-African rave rhythmic patterns the likes of which licksneonlights has never seen. /youtubevideoreview

  6. I almost feel like T69 collapse was a necessary track to lead this ep. It's similar enough to the acid + breaks trip we've been on since essentially analord. but it also collapses away from that and into new territory. In that way, it's the perfect gateway to the otherworldly tracks we hear for the remainder. if this ep had started with 1st 44, our heads would have completely exploded. Or we would have thought it was a fake. It's almost as if Richard wanted to make sure that we could handle the new direction that he's taking us. He cares about us guys. He really cares about us.
  7. This is so fucking good. And relistening to T69 Collapse now, I hear the track differently in the context of the full ep. The intricate beats were not simply a variation on what we've been hearing since The Tuss. It's a whole new direction and that becomes immediately clear on 1st 44 and beyond. This feels like the beginning of a new era of Aphex Twin and holy shit is it amazing.
  8. At the risk of sounding like a fanboy, I honestly think this dude can do no wrong. Analord? Amazing. The Tuss? Incredible. Syro? Next level. Cheetah? Fucking dope. Collapse? Dear god yes.
  9. I work for a development company and I hear that word daily. It's watered down and soulless... so definite corporate connotations here. Maybe it's a regional thing? Yup I get definite corporate connotations from that word. I think the problem with it is that it's both passive and general - it doesn't tell you what was innovated, how, or who did it. That’s the fault of the speaker being an inarticulate knob, it’s not inherent to the word itself
  10. So much negativity in this thread. Richard isn’t innovating anymore? Compared to who? Nobody else makes music like this. Not even close.
  11. Are we all assuming that this will be released on Adult Swim’s site at the same time it was supposed to air on tv?
