I don't get his music. It's decent but it feels like every song is the same. Am I retarded? Is there something I'm missing?

Yes. Since they literally sound nothing alike. You just listened to SAW 85 - 92 and nothing else, right?

What releases have you heard? If he excels at anything it's variety desu

What of his albums are like SAW1? I fucking love the ambient techno.

jump around different eras, not all the songs sound the same. nothing wrong with you. might take a while to grow on you, or it's just not your thing.

how the absolute fucking shit does anything in 85-92 sound inseparable

I've only listened to RDJ Album. I vaguely remember listening to ICBYD, but I've pretty much forgotten all of that.

Surfing on Sine Waves by Polygon Window (an Apex Twin alias) and Analogue Bubblebath 3 by AFX (another alias) are comprised of tracks from the same era and similar style. You will like them.

Listen to SAW 85-92 you manlet
Half of the album kinda does sound the same but in a genre same kinda way not like a loveless kind of way where the whole album is literally the same track 13 times.

Thx. Based and aphexpilled.

>i only listened to one album
>all his songs sound the same!

you guys really need to evolve and not just listen to 85-92 because the guides and critics told you. he has SO MUCH awesome music beyond that. not saying 85-92 isn't great, but holy shit come on fucking evolve, mu

me again. one more thing OP:
>Am I retarded?
yes! yes you are retarded

Hey fuck you I listened to drukqs too

He has literally hundreds of other tracks. RDJA is good but is a fairly succinct release that showcases a specific sound
Honestly just explore his discog more and try some of his non-Aphex aliases too. If you want something that is the polar opposite of RDJA maybe try SAW2 as an example

OP here. Listening to SAW 85-92, just made it to Aegispolis. Can safely say that I am getting absolutely nothing out of this, nothing feels special about it.
I honestly feel like I'm missing something here.

(I take back my statement about how every track sounds the same, though. Worded my OP fucking terribly.)

well, why don't you try another album. personally 85-92 is crap compared to his later albums. but if you honestly think you're able to give an informed opinion after listening to 4 tracks on album for the first time, you're truly a pleb

Might seem a silly question but what are you expecting to hear exactly

Bruh you're saying that after Xtal and Pulsewidth? It ain't gon change you. Also tip for listening to albums: do it in the background. Foreground like sitting for 40 minutes will make you hate everything.

why keep forcing this one album when richard has loads more that are awesome and imo better. c'mon fellas. let 85-92 go

Electronic music is prog rock for liberals

I thought prog rock was prog rock for liberals

Because he said that's the one he's listening to autist. Who would have thought his most popular album is his most suggested, schizo.
Based

it's not his most popular album. it's the critics' favorite. and when someone says they don't like something by an artist, you generally suggest another album rather than forcing them to like something. especially when 85-92 is not representative of apex's whole body of work. i think you are a pleb who only knows this one album

I think you're a fucking idiot. He said he only listened to RDJ. What is wrong with telling him to listen to an album? It's different from RDJ enough to warrant a try. Get the stick out of your ass you hipster.

OP already said he'd listened to two other releases, no-one's forcing anything
I actually agree SAW 85-92 is overrated btw

Ye. Won't lie, past the third track it goes downhill hard.

best aphex release coming thruuuu. plebs need not apply

How did you not enjoy Tha?

this is the shit i'm talking about. why not call him out for being a fucking dolt for not liking anything on RDJ first, then SAW 85-92. You just worship the fucking tourist mu-core album best-of list bullshit pioneer album.

This misses out too many great Analord tracks imo
Where the fuck is Phonatacid

Holy shit look at yourself before you post you absolute awkward nerd.

it ain't supposed to have everything. phonatacid would throw the pace way off. a lot of great tracks missing. but it's a really amazing selection with the ten that are there. no filler, no bullshit.

man, realize what site you're on. if you're not a nerd about music, then you ain't doin it right. what the fuck are doing with artists you like if you're not listening to all of their shit. you are just a pleb poster here for kicks. you don't know shit. this board is fed

It's called a beginners recommendation. Stop being a humongous faggot. You're way past hating music because it's popular. Now you hate it because the underground likes it. Fucking dork. Go back to loveless or some shit autismo.

i love all music. every aphex release is cool to me in some way. but 85-92 is obnoxiously overhyped here to the point that you're pushing only that album on people when there's a boat load of others that might be more suitable. what you're doing is this one size fits all shit and handing someone an album that, if you haven't noticed, is hated by most beginner listeners of aphex. how new are you

These are all me btw ;)

i am you by=tw

Wrong, I am.
If he liked music he wouldn't be listening to Aphex. lmao

OP here. What the fuck is going on in this thread?

Wtf is going on with all the aphex casuals on here lately. Maybe i should really "go back" to watmm

Based :)
