Well, of course I'm kidding, and you're entitled to your opinion... ...however incorrect it may be Seriously though - I'm genuinely curious how songs like Minipops and Patapat (amongst others) aren't (to you) shining examples of Richard at his best...

Zephyr_Nova Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 The track Syro is funky af. I would've thought that one could be appreciated by just about anyone. I can understand how the others wouldn't gel with some people, but that one sounds like a universal boner to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YangYing Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 I just wanna clarify again that it's not that I don't appreciate that the tracks are well made or good in their own right, is simply that post tuss aphex sound is not my cup of tea (n I know he don't owe me anything yadda yadda, ts just ma ears I guess) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zephyr_Nova Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Xmas has never been a highlight for me, but definitely a curiosity since I'm aware how crazy everyone else seems to be about it.

garbage_burner Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 The vinyl master is vastly superior. It’s not quite as compressed and limited. The digital sounds like they over did it with multi band compression. I will say the 24bit digital from blerp sounds slightly better than the cd or mp3. However there’s a tasty 96k24bit rip of the vinyl floating out there in shared land. It just breaths better. It’s not so jarring. Those first notes of minipops doesnt grate into your cochlea like the digital release. It sounds balanced too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Words from Aphex's mastering engineer for Syro (Aphex chatter starts at 24:57, cool insights and perspective throughout, though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donquixote Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Finally got myself a vinyl copy of syro over the weekend and I prefer the mastering too I think. It's interesting as I'm not particularly a fan of vinyl, more of a cd guy. This makes me wonder if it's an age thing. Vinyl can't handle the frequency response and "loudness" that digital can so I'm guess the vinyl has a more restrictive frequency and greater dynamics which I guess I'm used too, its kinda like the way I love the sound of tape. But anyway yeah I'm saying I think the vinyl Is better too..would much prefer a digital version of the vinyl master's though, never been a fan of tone arm resonance and additional crackle. If rich wants to upload one to the store he can get my cash a third time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
