they all suck (specially 4, Windowlicker, St. Michel Mount, Green/Blue/Yellow Calx, Fingerbib, Z Twig, Heliosphan, On, Nannou, Flim, and many more) I think his only good one is Come to Daddy.

Polynomial-C, Fenixfunk 5, W32.Mydoom.AU@mm, Carn Marth, Girl/Boy Song, Ageispolis, Heliosphan, Alberto Balsalm

 

Hate picking favorites, though. Picking just these Analord tracks is a disservice to the rest of the Analords, as the rest are to their respective eras. Almost like real music awards :cisfor:

 

Need to listen more to pre-1994 stuff, I can't really recall any tracks from that era.

Currently, Run the Place Red. Seriously. I would buy a 12xLP of AFX's raggacore

 

True. I think it gets a bad rap due to the two noise tracks. Speaking of raggacore check this out.

"Do these 3 city crumbling cuts need introduction? In late 2003 a tiny label called Reject Records emerged from Detroit wielding a limited edition 12" split. The B side of this 12" went to an artist named Dr. Lefty, and contained 3 of the most face-melting ragga/breakcore tracks ever written. Soon this record arguably became the "hardest shit you can drop" to many DJs.

Sure enough, years later we find out Dr. Lefty is in fact an old alias of Benn Jordan's. This left the world with 2 problems:

1. All the 12" were long gone.

2. No digital copy exists from the masters.

 

Alphabasic to the rescue... [now] you can get all 3 digitally mastered tracks in lossless FLAC format."

 

Sold through the label's website:

Don't usually post on these subjects but I would like to mention To Cure a Weakling Child (Contour Regard) off Come to Daddy Ep. As this track is easily one of my tip-top-tastic Aphex tracks but never seems to get mentioned.
