mushroom 119 Posted October 1, 2018 Author Share Posted October 1, 2018 yeah that track rules too. cylob mix is amazing as well but as far as the wheeze mix goes, i.e. the only mix that has anything to do with the original in any obvious fashion, it's just better than the original in every way. beat, melody, not being really annoying to listen to, just all aspects. definitely deserves to be on ICBYD instead.

hello spiral 1230 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 such a brave and controversial opinion Link to post Share on other sites
perunamuusi 346 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 I prefer pretty much every track on that EP to Ventolin. Probus is absolute top tier Aphex. Link to post Share on other sites

sweepstakes 542 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 The overall aesthetic of the Ventolin EP is my favorite of his entire discography. Great melodies but the textures turned more for the weird than they were on ICBYD. Drums were getting weirder too but he hadn't gone whole hog with the drill n bass thing yet. The mixing is lo-fi but great - sometimes it's raw and dry, other times it's reverbed out bliss. Link to post Share on other sites
Joyrex 1277 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Bah, you guys don't know what you're talking about - OG Ventolin is arguably the best one. I do love some of the remixes though. Link to post Share on other sites

zazen 74 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 On the CD those tracks were slower. Equiv of 33 rpm I guess. Link to post Share on other sites
zazen 74 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 (edited) The first 1m44s of this is my favourite, the version you posted above doesn't have it I always meant to make this into a ringtone https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=145FCNfigA4 Edited October 1, 2018 by zazen Link to post Share on other sites
KovalainenFanBoy 202 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Aphex Twin - is it OK to only like the mixes that sound nice? Link to post Share on other sites
mushroom 119 Posted October 1, 2018 Author Share Posted October 1, 2018 yeah that thread was the inspiration for this one lol Link to post Share on other sites
Brisbot 409 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 I'm a more recent aphex fan. I wonder if most people who'd like ventolin heard it first in the 90s, where I heard it first probably in 2013. At that point there was so much better aphex stuff out it never appealed to me.

Joyrex 1277 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 My favourite Ventolin "remix" - although I prefer the 33rpm version: Link to post Share on other sites
Joyrex 1277 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 And the Wheeze mix is probably the best alternate version of Ventolin (that's been released): Link to post Share on other sites

BaggerMcGuirk 88 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Probus Mix is like a top 10 all time Aphex track for me, but that 45 RPM thing is garbage. I do think all of Ventolin is pretty underrated though. Weeze Mix takes the hardest point of the original and loops it. Link to post Share on other sites

I always forget it's so short - in a perfect world there's an album's worth that sounds like that. Also this is my favorite time of year for this EP. Link to post Share on other sites
