I didn't say I hate aphex (beside in the subject ;). I just want to show
the love-hate relation I have and I think lot of people on this list
have also to Aphex Twin. And I think that it's why he always get this
type of threads.
But I think he get to much attention everytime he release anything
because there are lot of records that are much more interesting these
days.
And yes, he can release whatever he wants to, and I will always give it
a listen and hopefully I will find a new song that I will love.

Surely it's up to Aphex what he wants to release. You don't have to like
it. I don't like Britney Spears, but I'm not going to waste my time
writing useless threads about her. If you don't like it, you don't like
it. Maybe if people could add something constructive to their argument,
it wouldn't seem so lame. You want interesting and evocative, culturally
subjective by definition, go do it yourself.

2 cent:
I think most of aphex twin stuff is kind of dull, but then he manage to
make good track (as imho alberto balsam, nannou, tha, if it really me,
on, iz-us and so on) he makes some of the most beautiful stuff I know
and all of them are on my list of the best songs ever. And that why I
always check out every new Aphex release...

I care because you do, not good? you must really not like him! this is
one of his most easy listening cds! I mean 80 percent of this guys stuff
is just utter 180bmp garbage/ noise(SAW 1 and 2 are classics
though)..this cd has some very good IDM type of melodic tracks, without
the crazy drum patterns...

quoted 1 line yeah, aphex twin is mostly riding off what he used to be. his last cd
> yeah, aphex twin is mostly riding off what he used to be. his last cd
sucked. "i care because you do" sucked except for one or two tracks.
Until he met Tom Jenkinson his music was really loopy and not very good.
After he met Tom he couldn't make a song for more than 3 minutes for he
wasn't capable of making a 7 minute drum solo. His music is very good
and very innovative (if you call ripping of Squarepusher innovative) but
he just doesn't have it in him anymore.
