    (I know its more expensive this way

    it isn't

    (unless you use five different accounts)

     

    Oh it keeps track of what you've bought and lets you get discounts retroactively?

     

     

    yes.

    I love how "eastre" sounds and all, but I couldn't stand to hear it repeat for 20 minutes. I think if this were a five minute track I would love it, but wow that twenty minute listen was just tedious. I may not come back to this one for a while.

     

    And "TBM2" just felt really weak. I like the (few) ideas behind it too, but it went for too long with very little development, and the beat was very simple too.

     

    The more I get into this, the less I am enjoying this very long-form content. I'd much prefer it if they tried to make their tracks concise rather than extending them unnecessarily. I've still only gotten through the first 3 records though. I'm glad "mesh cinereaL" was at least an interesting track with actual development that warranted more length. If it wasn't for this track, I would've really loathed elseq 3 on this first listen.

     

    Of course take all this with a grain of salt because first listens mean nothing.

    We've got tracks from that dump that we would never have attributed to him.

     

    yep

     

     

     

    Actually do not agree with this...

    To me this is perfectly Aphex... the drums remind me of AB tracks, the melodies on this are so fucking great remind me of rdj album and AB ep's (like for instance AB5's A1 track), melodies that bring vast horizons visions to my mind every single time...

    Maybe the only thing is the minimalistic approach to the song that could be doubted (and even this wouldn't be that surprising since at the time he was making music with Glass) about but other than that... It's pure Aphex genius.

     

     

    Yep this one is clearly aphex style ! my fav of the dump by the way !

    I remember the first time I discovered Brothomstates...it was in 2001, might've been May. Qtio automatically played on Warp's home page when it finished loading, back when it had a featured track. (And everything looked like blocks and squares.) Found out later that Lassi Nikko sampled "Passin' Me By" by The Pharcyde in that track.

     

    I still really like Claro.

     

    I miss those days...
