    I'm loving the alternating atmospheric/rhythmic track structure. Works really well as an album to be listened to in its entirety. 

    Agree. Breaks up the intensity and also adds to it at the same time.

    Spore is wildly intense. Love the first two tracks the best so far but gonna spend some time with this for sure. Some of it makes me wish for some new Stott but that’s a different convo…

    That's really strange. Seems like a no brainer to go on LP2 which Thom has already said they are working on. It's like releasing Paranoid Android as a single, then not including it on Ok Computer. Does not compute. Of all their new tracks only debuted live, it's probably second best behind Just Eyes and Mouth

    Just Eyes and Mouth was the only one left off of the first album though. And Bending Hectic was played quite a bit during their last tour. I think they’re just super fertile at this point and moving very quickly compared to how they generally work. The new stuff is very jammy and I am assuming there will be a few longer running tracks like this one. Skinner suits them so well. And the way Thom and Jonny trade instruments during their set is a testament to how much they are pushing this work. It’s extremely enjoyable to watch unfold.

    How are you listening to new Aphex Twin material for the first time?

    I haven’t listened to anything since joining watmm. I know the music is good - probably - but can’t spoil first listen until I have a full 32 bit/88.2 kHz clean cerebellum direct drive. I’m hearing good things about BoC Hi Scores but they messed up left and right so many times that I’ll probably skip that because how would you know what’s right if it’s left? Last time I saw Aphex I met up with a few watmmers but we all left before the show and never said a word to each other just to be sure. Looking forward to when the tech finally catches up.

    Weirdcore Appreciation

    To me Weirdcore's aesthetic elegantly stipulates on RDJ's lack of care for visual aesthetics in any way beyond "his face" and "fuck ugly rave shit." 

    What? I think RDJs “aesthetic” has been the opposite of care free for his career. In fact, I’d argue it was a huge part of him breaking out into main stream areas including being on MTV like 25 years ago. His art direction has always been meticulous.
