Aphex Twin - Collapse EP

[qnio]

abundance is top tier afx, the perfect closer to the ep. I never expected to hear a track like that on a 2018 release, thanks afx    

 

 

abundance doesn't really do much for me, it's built around a sample which feels kinda kitschy and off-putting to me to begin with and the melodies are kinda tired and the track sort just meanders along for me... maybe time will warm it up to me

wtf! is the best track in the ep for me. has all the oldschool afx goodness in it.

 

use of samples in the ep is . just about the right amount in the right moments

any clue on the meaning of

 

"Five from the top, three from the bottom

but only two from the middle."

 

??

 

Playing time of the title track.

 

 

6:39? 

 

5:23

 

 

 

durichroma is the only version of t69 that i listen to.

 

and 1st 44 and pthex are the best tracks on this ep for me atm

5 track EP is a nice treat, 6th track and now it seems more like a proper body of work, in my eyes at least, probably the symmetry. Infinitely grateful, what amazing tunes, getting Houston Live version is so legit, been wanting that ever since I heard it in December 2016.

In addition to recent aphex site shenanigans, I know the ship on the audio player was known about...

 

 

But did we know about this lot...

 

 

And was this birthday dino up on Ricardo's birthday and not spotted?

 

 

 

It's the Google Chrome "no internet" dinosaur and the birthday version for Chrome turning 10. Or am I missing something..

OK, so lets do the entire thing over! ;)

 

Seriously though, I'm not sure I like the contrast of the militaristic 'footwork' highhat rhythms with the more typical Aphex stuff that's happening in a couple of these tracks. There are a couple of parts where this interesting stuff happening in a track, melody-wise and rhythmically, but then these militaristic highhats kinda ruin it for me. I don't think the footwork crossover stuff is a very fruitful one, tbh. imo....

 

Production is top notch though. This is quality work. Musically, I'm not convinced though. It has it's moments. But again, these footwork crossover things kinda ruin it for me. Not my tea.

 

So yeah, discuss! ;)

 

No problems with the smearing reverbs though. hehe
