Deepex Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 It's also probably my favorite Aphex track, so I gotta defend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rabid Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 MINE TOO! People usually say Vordhosbn is the best drukqs track, and what it's great but it doesn't have the same level of epicness as Mont st. michel's. Also I had already heard vordhosb before sitting down to hear the album, so I never got that awesome first impression. MSM on the other hand, blew me away when I first heard it right after good ol' Avril 14. Actually I'm listening to MSM right now, that's pure coincidence tho. Jeez, I just heard the ending. I think my brain stopped for a few seconds!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest theSun Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 no one ever mentions Omgyjya-Switch7. kicks the shit out of mt st michel's stupid ending that gives me a headache 100% of the time. I've lost any respect for anything you may ever say again about IDM music. This is one of the most emotionally profound moments in music that I have ever experienced. Go back to the Autechre subforum. ending just sounds cheap to me. the rest of the song is pretty good, but not a standout on drukqs at all for me. plus there are tumbleweeds all over the ae forum today. edit - wait a minute did you respect what i said before?

Candiru Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 My opinion of Drukqs: All of the mental beats tracks are GOD The piano tracks are oh so pretty. Like Petiatil Cx Htdui is a tear jerker in my opinion. The random assorted tracks range from pretty enjoyable (Bbydhyonchord) to damned interesting (Gwarek 2) to not exactly a bad thing (lornaderek). If ya don't like it well you are on a Aphex forum so... yeah HI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest theSun Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 just cause i'm on the afx forum doens't mean i think all his songs are 100% greatness. it's more like 87% great, with BoC being around 78% and ae up around 94% (vsnares 34%, shakira 1%), for perspective. also read the rules IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It builds up the most amazing tension in a song that I've ever heard. I'm in disbelief that another Aphex fan would not also feel this way. The only thing I can think of is that you've not properly experienced it / been in the right state of mind / listened properly. I recommend turning out the lights, sitting by yourself with a pair of headphones and really being present and focused with the building emotional content throughout the song, climaxing with the ending. Weed optional. For best results, listen in the context of the whole album. kthxbye </fanboy> edit for grammar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plstik Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 most people prefer cd 1 to cd 2 because they cant stand any more afx after half of cd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markedone Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Saint Michel is undeniable ace. The middle section (around 4 minutes) when the lightning drums go to fucking town and the soft melody carries over the top.. so fucking tasteful. And the intensity that builds up to the ending is like none other (with those fleeting girl vocals). And the ending needs no explanation, blows my mind every time Oh and to answer the question, there are greats on CD2, but I still prefer CD1. Some of the tracks you guys take to (mostly Meltphace and Ziggo) have never really clicked with me (yet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
