Mattthegoone Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Those were the days, mad thinking how I was slightly disappointed at the time when Analord 5 was released because it only had 2 tracks (and it was 7 euro) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobra Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 I’m really enjoying the new track gets better with each listen! Yeah I would’ve liked more than 14 mins worth especially for the price but it definitely helps me get more excited for Field Day and after listening to the recent live clips. I’m happy 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caged Element Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Yeah, I'm liking it more with each listen as well. New Aphex is always a special thing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cern Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 The thing I miss with this Blackbox Life Recorder tune is those sneaky Aphex TB-303 patterns coming in and going out like Analord style! Filling up the track so well and well I guess Im a more easy going guy likes when he plays with the 909+808 and not 380 different drums and breaks in a chill track like this! I also miss regular break downs like in Xmd5a with different beats starts with different melodies like 3-4 times in the track! This stuff is what Im talking about (agh just love it): t.mp3 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lane Visitor Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 (edited) Wow wow wow. So far, this is my favorite Aphex release since Drukqs. Hands down. I hear remnants of SAW II with the floaty springy pads and stuff. I actually find this pretty uplifting, even though some have said it's sad/reflective. One thing for sure, there feels to be more expressive emotion here than in any of his recent work, and a focus on simple composition. With the chill easy going vibes, not overproduced, it also conjures the playful and genuine spirit of SAW 85-92 for me. It's not acid obsessed, nor shiny nor hyper immersive, it's just nice. The ambient version is just pure serenity. This is exactly what I needed and missed from him. Hoping the other tracks follow a similar vibe. I feel like every time he puts out something new, it gives meaning to the era we find ourselves in. Thankful for this.

cern Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 I can not get it over my head tho.. Blackbox Life Recorder 21f EP costs twice as much as Collapse EP but contains less than half of the track length Should it not be the opposite? It is just so short! And maybe 2 tracks are pretty identical Why not give a little bit more bang for the buck? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lane Visitor Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 (edited) Also wanna say, in an excited way, it feels with this one, that's he's abandoned the "I can do this" / "hold my beer" type thing and left the modulars and synth flexing behind for a bit more in favor of music, melody, groove and atmosphere.. Also brings back the feel of some of the chill tracks from Come to Daddy EP. Id happily pay for this record.

If you don’t want the truly unique packaging option then you are in luck because the mp3 copy is only $4 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
