It's not the synths that create the emotions, it's the person playing them! While I'm still speaking, let me defend Richard for a while. I know it's trendy to be anti-RDJ on IDM these days but don't forget that he simply is the best. SAW1, SAW2, I care, AB3, AB4, Classics, Ventolin, HAB1, HAB2, On, RDJ...they're all great and nobody else has put that much consistent material. Of course we all knew this already but sometimes you need to remind yourself. I admit RDJ has an arrogant attitude but with the feeling found in tracks like for example "On", you just can't believe that he is such an evil person. So if you're feeling anti-RDJ, turn whatever you're listening to off and put on you're favourite AFX track instead.

6) Should be "AFX Dub", according to the latest discography.
