My impression of "T69 Collapse" on a couple of listens -- I'm always drawn
back to how Aphex Twin is essentially making folk music. The main theme
of the track is a simple 4 bar loop of major and minor chords. Then
there's an interlude with microtonal synths (i.e. a bit sour & weird) and a
reprise of the main chord progression. Throughout there's a lot of
obsessively programmed drums.
With the exception of a bit of sort-of digital vocoder-ish sound, he's
still obsessed with using hardware. I definitely hear a lot of Yamaha RX5,
though I'm sure he sequenced it with his Cirklons. His obsession with
never repeating a drum pattern is nothing short of autistic.
