Windowlicker. Beetles is great.

B - Bodmin 3
W - Arched Maid Via RDJ

I'm in the minority but I dislike most of his later drill and bass stuff. Much prefer his experimental techno and electro material.

Im the oppisite of this

No shit, but I really do like beetles. It's wonky and fun.

B: Girl/Boy Song
W: Ventolin

Congrats being part of the (plebe) majority.

he doesn't have any outstanding tracks, unfortunately.

this, but best track is IZ-US

U fuckn wot

They all kind of blend together.

have you heard drukqs?

This. Shit was cash.

Xtal
Windowlicker
Come to Daddy

You sound d like the type of person that "listens" to an album for ten minutes (listening to the first 15 seconds of every song) and judges the whole artists discography by that ten minutes

Okay Aphex Twin fans

Gimme something that would give me chills, like serious chills as if I'm listening to space ambient while its raining.

Milkman

Xtal
Girl/Boy Song

*overrated

enitre R.D.J Album is god tier

Best: Flim
Worst: Logan Rock Witch

It's good but not that great and nowhere near his best. But it does show his talent is not just his production but his sense of rhythm and composition.

*almost every track from the

>best ambient
Stone In Focus
>best techno
Polygon Window
>worst
KTPA1 and KTPA2. Anybody saying anything else than these pieces of shit just has not listened to them yet.

I completely agree with you. The first Analogue Bubblebath is his magnum opus. The Universal Indicator series is also amazing.

Rhubarb
Lichen
Stone In Focus

Personally I find #19 or Hexagon as it's otherwise known to be really good.
Worst one? Come to Daddy probably.

>aphex twin
I don't have my fedora neckbeard picture pack with me today so I'll just sage this.

>saging
>not liking aphex twin
Smells like a normie faggot

>Meh saaage
Why do you fags still waste your time with that? You and I both know it doesn't do shit.

are u actually implying aphex twin is patrician? his music is prolly the most entry level normie shit besides alt rock/meme rap/pop

He played a song live that was dubstep inspired and used the "I'm the original" sample.
Any of you nerds know which one it might be? I can't find it anywhere.

>implying
>patrician
>not being able to hide your mobilefag
hyyyng, is this your first day?

lmao

cute meme arrows reddit

Aight, your bait is now more evident than ever. Do you get off from being a raging faggot?

Best: cow cud is a twin.
Worst: any non-piano song on druqks under 3 minutes

you're trying too hard

>herderderder

yeah I don't think you can call rdj anything put popular
aside from that flim is no1

nice meme arrows, reddit

B: Synthacon 9 / Acrid Avid Jam Shred / Ziggomatic / CIRKLON 3

W: phonge / ktpa tracks

BTW, anyone absolutely love the new S770 beautiful japanese people track? It's really stunning and I think one of the most beautiful tracks he's ever released.

>herderderderderder

you're cute, reddit! post more.

Alternatively
>I'm such a masterclass troll. They never even saw it coming.

Terrific taste. Although I'd argue XMAS_EVET10 is the superior Syro track. The S770SCI track is nice and mellow, but I wouldn't call it one of his most beautiful tracks. For me, that title belongs to Fork Rave.

Logan Rock Witch

now you've posted a typical aphex twin fan

Sick one. Did you steal that from a 2007 ED article?

everyone knows aphex queen fans are fedora neckbeards though that waste money on vinyl and never leave their basement

Ooh

Best Afx imo

youtube.com/watch?v=_8luBUXnpDQ

yeah, now you know too user

Nice

Yeah, everyone knows that. It's not just some shitty blanket statement you pulled out of your ass.

Can we post underrated tracks too? I think these are some of his best tracks from soundcloud, but i think they're some of his best in general.

are you just trying to have the last word or something? no problem. I didn't know that trivial kinda stuff was important for you. your m'lady arrived by the way, time to tip the fedora!

Sweet

kek can you imagine being this much of a faggot? Mocking someone for wanting the last word yet actively trying to get the last word? Oh, and can't forget to throw some fedora memes (lel) in there.
>anyfag who responds to your gay ass is a white knight

>I hate reddit even though I have it open in another tab

>nothing even off analord 2 mentioned

Phonatacid

but that acid sound in Green Calx really bugs me for some reason. Nothing even objective my feeling. It's too melty I guess?

DESU I only like ktpa1 and ktpa2.

Massively underrated tune is Pretend Analog

youtube.com/watch?v=siP3R4f9C6s

i'd easily put it in my top 5, so glad he released a mastered version of it on his new store. The pads at 1:30 and 4:24 honestly make me tear up in awe, sounds faggy but I can't comprehend how someone can be able to express emotions so purely through music.

More underrated tracks:

korg 1b > korg funk 5, but ye that primavera track is something else. That and the houston track gives me confidence he's only getting better, can't wait for his new stuff.

lol good taste until you showed that you can't tolerate boingy sound effects.

Analord 2 is the best Analord imo. Perfect balance between dreamy and gritty.
Also 7 and 8 are great too. W32.Deadcode.A has one of my favourite afx basslines.

Not my fav ( it's pretty hard to pick one ) This is just what I'm currently binging.

>the houston track
wait what is this one?

youtube.com/watch?v=dAYBi9NSOyE
I presume user means this one.

have you heard aphex airlines?
youtube.com/watch?v=qXKXCqAaEqs

I honestly can't choose a single track for either category, short of having a gun to my head.

If I had to pick a single best track I'd probably blurt out Bucephalus Bouncing Ball because Come to Daddy was my Babby's First Aphex Twin, because once I got past the Pappy mix meme, this was the track where it clicked and I was like "oh I need to listen to more stuff by THIS guy, fuck".

Other faves include assorted SAW II tracks, Alberto Balsalm natch and Pancake Lizard. BBB is a more personal track for the above reason though.

There's also plenty of pisstakes that are easy to pick from (Bit, the Cheetah pisstakes in the middle, maybe a pisstake or two on Drukqs but even Drukqs' pisstakes are mostly charming).

I actually never got around to listening to The Tuss until the archive site popped up even though I've been a fan of Richard's for years. Some amazing work on that record.

Analord 2 is my favorite Analord.

BBB is a really good track though. Comfy af, amazing melodies, ridiculous rythms and sound design, it's what you get when you let RDJ loose on a computer. Love the pads when the song breaks down to that kick drum, I'd fucking kill to time travel back to Glastonbury '97 where he played that tune live. Just to hear the kick drums come in with those epic pads and everyone just shuts the fuck up and realises this dude is the real deal, must have been amazing.

The Tuss is his best work, keep listening to the tracks they will grow on you in the best way possible. About 100 listens in to Synthacon it clicked for me that this was the fucking best thing since sliced bread.
