Aphex Twin - Green Calx

[killerinstinct555]

Can everyone pleae stop talking about that talentless shitex?

[DangerMau5s]

Sounds like exploring some weird lab in the Antarctic.

Skrillex sounds like over used sampling

[thepaifulpain2]

this skrillex discution reminds that moore once even said aphex twin was one of his influences hahahha :D funny isn't it ?

[killerinstinct555]

@thepaifulpain2

Except skrillex is talentless and AT has way more talent than Sonny would ever have in his life. Fame doe not mean talent. That's what most artists fail to acknowledge.

[damager1]

so acid)

[Nobodyknowsme021]

AT renewed my interest in techno music.

[arottenpickle]

LOL you guys compareing skrillex and apex are fucking stupid LOLOL just listen to the fuckin music man haha

[thephaseshifter]

haaa.. the intro is a killer

[ObjectableApparatus]

shares a resembalance to AFX acid 04

[garloish]

Skrillex : Aphex = jonas brothers : Beethoven

[jarblewarble]

I've been an experimental electronic music fan for longer than I can remember.

[erving1231]

this song is as old as I am!!!

[STE4LYOURFACE]

Skrillex? If I took a shit on a microphone would it be marketable? I kinda look weird to boot. We could make millions.

[anders69curt]

@CarbonFrosty skrillex though?

[CaptainGalacticMusic]

Why are people hating on Carbon Frosty for mentioning Skrillex in his list of talented artists? You are being ignorant for hating on him I think. If you really listen to Skrillex's music like his music or not he has talent. And guess what? He posted "Flim" by Aphex Twin on Facebook saying it was his favorite song of all time!

[warriorzin]

@CarbonFrosty Daft Punk and Skrillex have a huge fan base and make plenty of money.

It's insulting that you'd try to say Skrillex is anything decent on an Aphex Twin video though hahahahahaha.

[sparkey989]

@warriorzin Yeah well that's just your opinion maBRUUUUU U U U GH GH GH AARGH ARGH AUUGH GU HG HGH AGHGHGH

[warriorzin]

@sparkey989 I realize you probably a speech impediment, because you like Skrillex, but that doesn't mean you have to type like it also.

Learn to troll, you noob.

[Phycosymo]

love the little 8 bit tune going on in the background

[TheVVWind]

@CarbonFrosty skrillex? you're fuckn kiddn

go listen The Flashbulb, he deserves to be in this list, not skrillex

[AlbertX78]

FUCKIN MOST CREEPY TRACK IVE EVER HEARD! SUCH A SICK SOUNDS!! MY MIND IS COMPLETELY FUCKIN BLOWED! BETTER THAN ANY DRUG IVE TRIED!! Thanks, AFX! Fuckin Masterpiece!!!! :O

[TheSenileFeline]

@CarbonFrosty Everything was fine until you mentioned Skrillex. Then this post immediately became shit.

[e1anator]

@TheSenileFeline

Agreed.

[TheVVWind]

@TheSenileFeline u right man

[gothix114]

@TheSenileFeline What's wrong with Skrillex?

[DangerMau5s]

@gothix114 everything

[gothix114]

@DangerMau5s Thats a really stupid answer. If you don't like his music style, just say so. Don't be like "Hurp Derp everything sucks about Skrillex because he sucks."

[DangerMau5s]

@gothix114 I actually don't mind his music too much itself, but he's an overhyped artist. Heck he's not an artist, his music sounds cool, that is all. It's not thought provoking and lacks emotional range. When people compare Aphex and Skrillex it just annoys me because Aphex is influential and a game-changer to electronic music while Skrillex just makes phase music that doesn't stand the test of time

[gothix114]

@DangerMau5s That's what I was looking for. Now it actually makes sense, and I can see why you're annoyed at the fact that AT and Skrillex are compared. I've gotten over Skrillex now, so I can see where you're getting at.

[bleepingman]

@DangerMau5s In my opinion music by Skrillex WILL stand the test of time. There are enough young people talking about it and talking about it excitedly that it seems inevitable. Regardless of which way his music ends up going in the long run, though, we really can't fucking say, can we? Aphex Twin has almost two decades on this Skrillex chap, and that's a fair amount of time. When people are tired of complaining about dubstep and it's old alternative shit, THEN we can say.

[cliffordhn]

@TheSenileFeline skrillex doesn't appeal to my personal tastes, but it doesn't mean hes a shit producer.

and people, stop fucking comparing aphex twin to skrillex

[BUDxLOVEr314]

@TheSenileFeline hahahh killed it for me too man damn u skrillex

[jarblewarble]

This kind of music inspires me to design infinite computer generated fractal planets, like the ones in Minecraft.

[AntonioVassZanBomber]

He reminds me of Autechre

[killerkat1231]

its a shame that this artist isnt as well known as other artists who make utter shit songs

[MarkLovesJuice]

I love the album, but this track doesn't fit in imo.

[ContenTHC]

@CarbonFrosty DUDE! its not about who's a good artist, its about what the people like. and most people did not do drugs like you, and don't understand music like this of course u don't need to do drugs as many people would say to understand this... but you had to have smoked pot or did something that changes your way of listening to sound, going back to justin bieber he has good producers working on the music he releases and people love the frequency of music and they way his voice fits.

[LouiseVervaet]

@CarbonFrosty respect

[TajFlysPlanes]

it's like flying lotus :D

[henryburner]

His best imo

[christttophercole373]

but if i trygulfggfibble will it work...?

[lopytaa]

all Calaxes are best!

[jackoe123]

@CarbonFrosty I agree with that completely, except skrillex. He's getting kind of annoying now...

[chrisfullofsteel]

this tune takes me to another planet.. just lay down turn the volume up and let your imagination run wild

[PatrolTard]

This song is the jam...

[CaucasianBushhead]

I loves it bitch.



[hyrule10014]

i <3 this song. :]

[BingoNightAtChurch]

I like this song on it's own, but I think it totally kills the atmosphere of the album when listening to the entire thing. Am I alone in this?

[2ManyNoobs]

oh what a teaser at the end. You kind of expect the melody kick in to return one last time before it ends but it takes a while until it finally plays, but when it does ohh goosebumps

[GamerCall]

wow, richard d james is kinda superhuman

[Samisdown00]

this is og dubstep



[GamerCall]

@Samisdown00 this is uncountable times better than dubstep

[FlexBlur]

@GamerCall You can't compare Dubstep to Aphex Twin. It's like a lawn mower (wobbleblblblblblblblblblwowow­owowowowowobblblblbllll) and a supercar.

[GamerCall]

@FlexBlur haha, very true

[DoubleEdgedSword12]

@Samisdown00 not even dubstep, straight idm

[Polaf3456]

@Samisdown00 Your comment makes me want to hunt you down and smash your skull in with a dull butterknife...

[Delurr]

Soooo much acid on this track! 303!

[kitchenaut]

This is what happens if you crossbreed a Speak and Spell with the Monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey.

[KaunisRoheIine]

omg yeah this music reminds me of my middle school period... specially her, that green eyed wonderful girl... oh yeah orgasm

[Polaf3456]

@KaunisRoheIine Oh yeah... Gay...

[ObjectableApparatus]

@KaunisRoheIine same here

[ObjectableApparatus]

@KaunisRoheIine same here again

[KaunisRoheIine]

this music inspire everyone to create such amazing things, at least on me does.

[Samisdown00]

@KaunisRoheIine better than deadmau5

[RyckardPT]

The first 15 seconds is simply gorgeous, then it goes even better!

[FooMeow]

I tripped on savlia 20 listening to this song.

It wasnt peaceful haha

[pigsfood27]

IT'S LIKE JAMES BOND WENT TO OUTER SPACE.

[zupdurp]

@pigsfood27 DID'NT HE!?!

[TheNozzman]

This is my wedding song

[chets808]

can you hear richard at 5:26 ? "see like roight there"

[derFreiBierFred1]

sick, this music is 19 years old and it still sounds fresh and innovative!

[YourDeath311]

@derFreiBierFred1 The music isnt a point of "fashion" The music is immortal even so Electro and Hip Hop are more special because they have no period of time. I just Fuck off music industry wich say to people what they must listen and watch and screw up true artists

[ContenTHC]

@derFreiBierFred1 wow really! i didn't know that cool. Thats awesome. I suppose he used god synthesizers for his work and he's a good artist. :)

[MrVitalic85]

@derFreiBierFred1 dude!! It was a mistake if I have press ' i dont like' ... this is genius..

[nahum67]

aphex twins are great... mashed potatoes !!

[Shod1990]

holy, this made me close my eyes and smile!

[CodeAlpha77]

@KaunisRoheline song with no drugs? maybe possible but with drugs is it onethousend times better, but to have a long live u have to quit using drugs....anywa it is fucking great to use the right and good drugs but i learned to quit using drugs because i want to stay alive a bit longer.

[TheKekelol]

This would be perfect in Half-Life imo 

[Necromanticman]

@TheKekelol that would be kickass lol

[TheSebsteele]

Wonderfully demented.

[91231comenzingstar]

@KaunisRoheline

I DONT BELIEVE YOU

[ForsakenxBlood]

my most recognizable aphex twin song :)

[FlooperMap]

Now this is greaat. I think this is the best from ambient 1.

[DarwenDevil58]

@CarbonFrosty yeah i totally agree, wjich in this case is obviously aphex twin. :)

[DarwenDevil58]

and again thanks to aphex twin for creating this music and enternius for uploading it :)

[DarwenDevil58]

@CarbonFrosty i totally agree and couldn't of said it any better. The narrow minded scum of the commercial music industry need to step back and take a look at artists like this (including those you mentioned) , whos work is actually art and not just some random, meaningless shit that no-one could actually give a wank about.

[Nhordmyr]

green > blue > yellow

[KaunisRoheIine]

@KaunisRoheline yeah dude

[OperationGeneside]

Acidy or what?

[qzOzp]

this shit is off the hook

[mrTECHNO68]

SOUNDS LIKE I JUST GONE DONE PORKIN MY WIFE.... AWESOME!

[illusional1]

the milestone album. pioneer of the hypnotic groove...this is probably one of his absolute masterpieces...

[DiablosAguacate]

Of course you don't need to listen to it on drugs. But listen to this album on LSD and when you hit this track, you will know why people do..

[MrROLY1973]

@DiablosAguacate

BOOM !!! To right many a night out of sight idiosynchratic plight ! This album till the day I die

[andrewcramer13]

can anyone suggest other albums, artists, or songs with a similar sound to early aphex twin - this album in particular

[TheCommanderEddy]

@andrewcramer13 I know your comment is a month old but I do recommend Flying Lotus.

[HybridHeavenZ]

1:20 Such Sick Bass!, makes me want get up and dance to it!

[ELREndLondonRule]

Am I imagining it or was there a bit of windowlicker in the intro to this?

[fungus3688]

HOW IS ALL OF APHEX TWIN'S MUSIC ON YOUTUBE!!!?!!!! (sweet)

[enternius]

@fungus3688 There's actually a lot of songs I uploaded by Aphex Twin that got rejected. Seemed like most of Richard D. James Album, ironically my favorite AFX album.

[LiNaK37]

@fungus3688 It's not.

[Conkern65]

@fungus3688 All of Aphex Twin's music isn't on youtube. I have trouble finding stuff from his Smojphace EP and Phlegm EP.

[Conkern65]

Mom? Richard ate up all our Valium again! No, The Entire bottle! Wait, No I found the other bottle, its empty too. I know, No he doesn't need a doctor, let him die.

[quaxxac]

whata shit... falling free, xtal, avril14th is EXCELENT, but this is FUCK.

[headbangingpickle]

I'm high as fuck, and this is amazing.

[gionnidigei]

@KaunisRoheline I agree, never took drugs (but I'm not against who like them) and yet I love Richard.

[hoboss123]

@KaunisRoheline  for sure, aphex is a drug

[millsy2625]

@hoboss123

i know i love mellowing out to aphex

[alleygh0st]

Why do you say ''they''? Aphex Twin is one guy only: Richard D.James.

[heypaulo26]

@VincentBrooke1 I can, Vincent. And comparisons aside, this is not really that good. Its talentless, just my opinion.

[heypaulo26]

oh lord. I was sent here on a comparison to Kraftwerk / their tracks. Ha, what a *pstake !! Aphex Twin are the Trabant compared to the classic Aston Martin. Oh well, no need to come back to this mulchmusic, bye!

[danfrost313]

@heypaulo26 AfX are only one of the highest rated movements in music, no worries on your shitty opinion.

[jproctor1978]

@heypaulo26 each to their own - I agree that Kraftwerk held it together in the very veryu early days of electronic / techno style music and their stuff still holds it up today - that's no mean feat!! but hey, Aphex aren't so bad, OK they're not Kraftwerk but they've got a lot of really mind expanding stuff dotted about you just gotta go through their stuff and pick out what floats your boat! Respect mate.

[kenrben]

@heypaulo26 By what criterion are you judging the music by? innovation or creativity? Kraftwerk were electronica frontiersman and there's no denying they in part lit the fuse for artists like Aphex but to compare them is rather limited appreciation of the two...RDJ is brilliant, constantly forging ahead hes a shepherd. I think you should actually spend some time with his vast array of work before you start Talkin' shit ;) his music isn't immediately accessible I recommend the album Druqks.

[longpotter]

If your not one of the unfortunate people who brought this Album on CD you might want to play it on a SL1210 at 45rpms -8% you will be amazed!!!

[Gemendelos]

i really like aphex twin,truly good music,for more good electronic music you can check my page if you feel like it,have a great day : )

[longpotter]

you do realize that this whole album is played at the wrong speed??? rotfpmsl

correct speed is 45rpm @-8.

[afxgrin]

omg - it's been such a long time since i listened to this track on good headphones ... my mind is like melting from that 303.

[SOADafi]

its weird, I always hear the first few seconds of this song during nightmares as a kid, a while before I became an avid Aphex Twin fan, weird! Still a great song

[R00TZSP]

You fucking druggies.

Some of us just jammed to the music and didn't ingest E!

[K1dneyStoneZ]

@R00TZSP drugs do not make the music but music and drugs are like 2 best friends and they want to work together to make a great experience

[DjHyphie]

This music is extremely VISUAL! is it just me that thinks that? Ok to be fair - i once heard this when i was really high and litterlly did see the music, this track ageisoplis and heliosphan... words cannot describe so i won't even begin to try. BUT i can still see the images and concepts in my head... this music is more than music basically.

[dobsondale]

@DjHyphie jesus christ come on now you pretenshious wanker you didnt literally see the music ! one of the first projects in the RCA is to draw music and its hard V hard even for really talented artists, you definately didnt see it and you ultra definately didnt literally see it. thats one of the most rediculous things i ever heard anyone say, your young arent you !

[DjHyphie]

@dobsondale Young??? You must be having a laugh mate... Im 21 a start. Secondly, who are who to say weather or not i experienced something or not? I was actually under the influence of some cannabis FYI... stop chatting breeze

[DIGItalColourMedia]

@DjHyphie 21 is young.

And that's coming from a 17 year old.

[DjHyphie]

@DIGItalColourMedia young as opposed to a 60 year old yeah...but old enough to speak my truth and know weather or not i experienced something. whats your point : )

[thespandexman]

@DjHyphie You are young. That's not debatable. I do agree, however, that this music is pretty visual.

[MrLimaira]

The gunsound is from a Stormtrooper from Star Wars :D

[ripelivejam]

itz hard to sing along ://///

[rttj1000]

this is fucking amazing

[colenbrak]

my favourite aphex twin album,ambient II was insane though.

[horselover1127]

And people think This Romantic Tragedy is shit? Wtf is this?

[bums009]

@horselover1127 Why would you even mention This Romantic Tragedy? Certainly got nothing to do with this...

Oh and people think they're shit.. because they are. They're a bunch of screaming posers who look like gay hairdressers.

[horselover1127]

@bums009 You don't know what a poser is, obviously! TRT is an amazingly talented band. Get over yourself and suck it!

[bums009]

@horselover1127 Haha TRT are really not, they're about as talented as MCR...You need to get over yourself. Filthy emo.

[bums009]

@horselover1127 Why would you even mention This Romantic Tragedy? Certainly got nothing to do with this...

Oh and people think they're shit.. because they are. They're a bunch of screaming posers who look like gay hairdressers.

[butchandmungo]

@horselover1127 you my friend need neutering

[scorchiomaximus]

ooooooooooh

[carbondecay]

LOUDER ! LOUDER!

[carbondecay]

This is bangin!

[Gilgamesh2707]

Love the change at 0:40 and full on at 0:48!

[enternius]

Well after spending a few seconds thinking about it, this album was released in 1992 and Perfect Dark was released in something like 2000...So much for that idea.

[vbgreenie]

@enternius  Laptop Gun... \m/

[dubtr3]

@enternius ya know, it is possible that perfect dark sampled the sound from this song?

[RyanFromUltrasound]

@enternius

its from robocop

[WeponOfChoyce]

@enternius

That doesn't mean they don't sound like each other....it just means that Perfect Dark has a little Aphex influence lol

[GrafiGumo]

@enternius Pure "Perfect Dark" - this is it !.

[StopFlaggingVideos]

4:00 - 4:03 is that the Cyclone reload sound from perfect dark?

[enternius]

@StopFlaggingVideos

I swear to god, that's the exact same thing I thought when I first heard this song.

Then I had to dig out my N64 and play it again...Ah, the memories.

[Ele3tricEye]

@enternius probably, rdj is really slick about taking stuff from games and using other people's musical phrases (some call it ripping them off, but i like to think of it as improving cause he makes it sound much better :P). If you recognise it from somewhere else, its most likely from there

[StopFlaggingVideos]

@enternius currently playing N64 PD too and i know that's the sound

@Ele3tricEye i approve and appreciate RDJ using stuff from games and other musical phrases, i don't think of it as ripping off at all, it has a purpose

[xbase09]

@enternius they could have sampled the track or both might have sampled the same source tough.

[Conkern65]

@enternius It contains samples from RoboCop, the dinosaur's popping eyes during the 6000 SUX TV ad, the ED-209 robot trying to go downstairs without success, and the sound of RoboCop browsing faces of criminals in the police archives computer. It also contains a faint sample of the vocal from "Fodderstompf" by Public Image Ltd, as well as from the opening titles of John Carpenter's 1982 film The Thing.

[Necromanticman]

@StopFlaggingVideos YES!

[ennoidshun]

@StopFlaggingVideos I hear so many video game sounds in afx music I don't even keep track anymore, but I have that game and need to replay it just to hear it.

[mrpeanut25]

This music is helping me quit tobacco!

Thanks aphex twin!

[XxMoshPittersxX]

i hope ur tellin tha truth... if so nice job bro

[TumbleWeed954]

this, analogue bubblebath , and heliosphan are my three favorites from APHEX TWIN

[tobyn123]

@KaunisRoheline you should try taking extasy and listening to music!!! i think and so do many many other people that it would change your mind completely :)

[everynickistaken1]

green calx=god of all chill out/ambient techno songs.

[Lusheris]

green calyx? sounds tasty...

[NotComingBack01]

Calx is another word for ash, part of the Phlogiston theory, so it would probably be pretty icky :D

[tobyn123]

would it be sticky icky? LOL
