Guest Promo Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 I almost completely forget this existed. Why has this almost been consigned to the dustbin or was this up on the Warp site at one time? http://www.youtube.com/w/Aphex-Twin-Ventol...ch=Aphex%20Twin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyrex Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Yes, it's official - the only place you can get it is on the Japanese Come To Viddy (which I have). Richard and WARP hate this video with a passion - I personally like it quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest iep Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 i wonder why afx hates this video.. it's like being inside david lynch's brain while he's on acid and having an asthma attack.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avinit Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 What's the cat on this VHS, I can't find it anywhere on Discogs ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josso Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Yeah I've seen this before. Pretty cool I always thought. Never thought much for the song though (no offence anyone who loves it). Might be quite good but the high-pitched pain ALL the way through just fucks with my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squee Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Personally I don't really care for the video, but the track is fantastic! I loved playing it when I went from class to class on my old school making presentations on Afx. The reason why I don't like it is that the video shows so much potential when it starts out. Like iep said some of it looks like something by David Lynch, and I definitely agree on that. The woman in the elevator looks like the Mystery Man from Lost Highway, but then all of a sudden there are footage of airconditioners and all sorts of pipes etc. and lots of this footage loos so amateur-like.

Guest Morgan Dunn Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 i dont much care for the song or the video...both are obscenely repetitious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyrex Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 What's the cat on this VHS, I can't find it anywhere on Discogs ? NTSC VHS. WPVR-88 / 4943674008834 WARNER MUSIC VISION JAPAN/WARP RECORDS LTD. This release (the Japanese Come To Viddy VHS) is also the ONLY place that WARP officially acknowledges that GAK is Richard's work (the inside liner of the cassette case has all of Richard's releases, and GAK is there).

Macca Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 t'is a good tune, I remember the video being ok, not Cunningham's level but still a nice video... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cryptowen Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Probably the worst Aphex video, but that speaks more for the quality of the other ones than against it by itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshuatxuk Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 t'is a good tune, I remember the video being ok, not Cunningham's level but still a nice video... Yeah, it's also no where near the level of On either, which is beautiful IMO, and that probably lacked the budget of Cunningham's vids and even Donkey Rhubarb. Granted, Jarvic Cocker directed On. I agree though, it's alright, definitely appropriate and the right mood for the track. The problem, as mentioned with the David Lynch comparions, is that the Ventolin vid is just unorginal. It could easily be a video for any 80s EBM single. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YEK Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 friend i worked with hated it cause i guess he was dropping acid and that song came on. take it or leave imo. it is quite noisy though/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candiru Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I always like the track. Painful but at the same time refreshing, like it's rinsing your brain out a little bit. That video though... what exactly is it trying to say? These vents are like your respiratory system and this is all very sinister! WhOAOAOA!
