[Smidthmador]

Doesn't he look like he might be a rapist? Good song though! I don't judge people for their interests.

[epicureus314159]

[AthlonNapelmanak]

This song has healed me of my asthma.

[FlooperMap]

Lyrics to the people, half of them are in doubt :)

[unionofonion]

Why doesnt this sound like regular aphex twin......it doesnt have that same feeling I get when listening to halibut acid. :(

[broadcastmyass4u]

@unionofonion cause its not the same track bro

[PantherFox]

@unionofonion

Because his music has great variety and can create many different feelings. It's also more braindancey, and less acidey.

[trallawan]

KINGKEEFAGE IS DUMB RETARD! but still love him

[DrynSarcastic360]

@Philosopher276 he's talking about daft punk's first song from way before they released their debut album, assault definitely sounds alike to this.and fuck you for not liking daft punk.

[karmen79]

Happy Birthday Richard ! ;DDDD 18/08/ 2011

[mariano26788]

sing with me.... I-TAKING-CONTROL-OF-THE-DRUM-M­ACHINE

[JavaSpitLava]

@Philosopher276 or strapped down to an electric chair and then shot at

[JavaSpitLava]

some stupid ass arrogant punk thats only like 16 is trying to argue with me that dubstep is way more technical then aphex or venetian.....wtf?!!....i bet the kid just started making music....hes all like...im a well known producer in my community....his name is cerebrumtrancestep....if anyone wants to see for themselves how one sided this kid is

[patricksudbury]

This Kinda Sounds Like Daft Punk's "Assault"

[requiemforapussy]

my fav from aphex. so creative, god i love it

[djbigangus]

great song, i have dug this tune for a while but wrong title of the track

[Jahoobano]

7 people had expensive drum machines

hijacked by electro-terrorist Aphex Twin Laden.

[olesjabier]

Peace, bitch.



[surerneroks]

GREAT SONG....... APHEX TWIN Your Azome and The BEST of BEST...

[justinorville]

I HaAAaave TAKEN contrrrooolll of the DRum Machine.

[smitha207]

This is awesome. ...come on!

[sonictwin]

This comment has received too many negative votes

oh and by the way, the name of this song is called AVRIL 14th. NOT TAKING CONTROL .............

[xbxleex]

@sonictwin accully avril 14 has a piano in it smart ass

[ChristopherDone]

You've got so many machines, Richard.

[broadcastmyass4u]

very creepy tune, kinda scary

[JackTron7000]

I have a weird feeling that he plans on seizing control of the drum machine.

We better hide it.

[itanimullitenretni]

@JackTron7000

Lol, more like we better hide FROM it. Might render us comatose...

[JackTron7000]

@itanimullitenretni

Nah, we should be fine as long as he doesn't take control.

[davehobgoblin]

This comment will generate thumbs up randomly

[00the00virus00]

@davehobgoblin Actually no, not randomly. The reason because you get thumbs up is because people find it funny or witty and sarcastic to give you thumbs up. We don't know yet if randomness truly exists in the universe.

[LanceHertford]

@00the00virus00 Hahahaha!! You're one of the few people who understands that about randomness. Most people are too dumb to realize the profound implications of that fact, let alone that such a thing is so. There are no accidents in the universe. Everything happens for a reason. All appearance of randomness is simply an illusion. This is not at all to say everything happens for a PURPOSE, mind you. But a reason, yes. You can trace everything back like dominoes.

[coaster1235]

@LanceHertford Determinism probe goes *beep*. (because it senses that you're in Team Determinism [that's because you believe in determinism {idk why. QUARKS :P}])

[00the00virus00]

@LanceHertford true, well einsteind tought so. But have you ever heard of quantum physics. They tend to look at things having possibilities, or being random. We have so much to learn. We know much less than we think we do.

Wow who am I kidding, nobody cares..... it's just boring physics and i'm a lame nerd....

[CCCPSimbirsk]

@LanceHertford nothing is sure, so is your theory.

[broadcastmyass4u]

@LanceHertford anytime someone says something that is oh so obvious to me but they don't get it do you know what i tell them, i say that everything happens for a reason. And i know im right

[Buldaner]

decent bitch

[Tjalboman]

@Buldaner :o)

[kragle2008]

yeah id herd this b4 avril 14th drukqs.. :-) clingonflim

[774434]

@Intelectual95 lol this comment made my day.

[kubuntuboy]

@kingkeefage gimme a break.

[ImpulseGenerator]

@kubuntuboy

bada BOOm Tssjj

[ididntwantomakeaname]

@kubuntuboy no.

[ph1138]

@kingkeefage nah man, you're wrong, put the crack pipe down

[MrAndyFB]

@kingkeefage Go and get the inlay cover and look at it again. You've bought the CD, right?

[TheRealSlaveZero]

@kingkeefage how come when I put avril 14th in YT, there's only a 2 min song?

[Niktendo91]

@kingkeefage Idiot. Avril 14th is the piano peice.

[utopis]

@kingkeefage

avril 14th is a piece solo by aphex.. not this..

[lhs04]

@kingkeefage oh and by the way, WRONG. avril 14th is a piano piece. you need to do your research.

[scheiSSkind77]

@kingkeefage

10/10

[DullFangs]

@kingkeefage This is Taking Control from Druqks, I have the album infront of me, are you serious?!

[JackTron7000]

@kingkeefage

Why does this comment have so many negative votes? It's amazing.

[PantherFox]

@kingkeefage

Check the discogs bro. This -is- taking control. The piano piece -is- avril 14th.

On another note though, if you were right, I'd be right there with you, yelling the same thing.

[boringstuff0309]

@kingkeefage this isn't AVRIL 14. And it has no piano piece whatsoever.

[DUDEABIDES001]

@kingkeefage ? i think you got song no 9 from disc 1 "avril 14th" mixed up with song number 09 from disc 2 "taking control" which is this song. Nice going nub.

[TheAPC91]

fail. nuff said.

[WinXMillsy]

@kingkeefage its taking control derpa avril 14th is the piano piece....

[kingkeefage]

this is NOT taking control. Taking Control is ONLY the piano part. the song is 2:07. i cant stand it when people make two songs one song and upload them as one song.

[DakaSha]

Listening to this shit is like riding a rollercoaster

[ChuChuNeko]

The atmosphere of this album is lovely.

[retnuHDJ]

@ChuChuNeko Lovely is the perfect word to describe the atmosphere on Drukqs :P

[drago717]

evil faces? well for me he is always smiling ^_^

[caraetabla27]

Wow that's goods :) Aphex twin the best.....

[glowball01]

love this sooooo much...

[Encrust]

Just what is he though really?

[glowball01]

@Encrust a mentalist genius, like nothing on this crazy pebble..

[and000n]

GREATEST SONG EVER

[geoffangusmusic]

Such a knack for rhythm. I love those moments you get when you're just like "I could really bloody go some aphex twin right about now", and sure enough you can :P

[sptfgpn]

Ah, the, "taking control", illusion. Not possible.

[samnoper123]

Looks like Joshua Pursely

[sportsfiend12]

this song is kille, drukqs has gotta be 1 of the best aphex twin cds ever! :D

[glowball01]

I'm taaaaakkkkiiiinnggg control of the druuummm machinnnneee

[PsychoactiveMark]

[antoinextaz]

[774434]

4:48 "bass bitch"

[Oscar301]

@774434 I thought it said "decent bitch" !

[greentrigger]

@774434 "Peace bitch" :)

[steelundergrounder]

this guy is a genius

[hitman802]

KRAFTWERKLY :D

[upabamoan]

Heheh, I love artists that wear their own merchandise!

[TheAPC91]

@upabamoan Hahaha RIGHT DUDE ! THX FOR SAYING I DIDNT NOTICE THAT...

[Mazurka1001]

Well, I would have made a mistake of ordering this from Amazon a few years back... Definitely too mechanical....

[774434]

hes hideous!

[WinXMillsy]

@774434 not about the looks its about who he is and what kind of person he is he is a master piece!

[PandusBear]

Richard D James for President!

[minimalniemand]

[SteveFusionX]

[Buldaner]

[aXeboy99]

1:57 motherfuckers, 1:57

[gilmonteverdemusic]

who can't see that Aphex Twin is a pure genius is stupid.

[badreligionbomb]

[themysteriouscow]

why are you going on about penises and being gay? there must be SOME reason for it

[slipperyslida]

@gilmonteverdemusic

indeed

[meamverysmart]

@gilmonteverdemusic As closed minded as that sounds... it's true.

[carbondecay]

@gilmonteverdemusic Most people who dont understand things and makie fun of it is cause they are too stupid to understand it....

[d0Bored0b]

@gilmonteverdemusic Haha, it's funny because stupid people can't see genius. :p

[maruta555]

@gilmonteverdemusic he who can see that Aphex Twin is stupid, is a pure genius

[BekBud1]

@gilmonteverdemusic maybe ur just stupid

[aXeboy99]

lol this literally took control over my body, and I smiled about it. APHEX TWIN IS GOD

[wabbylegs101]

musical battle over the drum machine

[Mshitflood]

lets never talk about drugs again cos it sort of fags up the music vibe you pack of cunts

[Conqlusion19]

This Song really controls me. It's like a hypnosis.

In The Beginning of the song, I thought that i don't like the song. But At the end I think it's one of the best songs ever. I think i must hear this song permanently till I die

[MrScorn]

I love the beginning.

[1990AW]

i love his music but u dont have to be a dick to enjoy it belled !

[toltec666]

want to have a dark scary fucking time?  listen to this album on lsd or a bunch of shrooms

[skullbonus]

It's probabbly a good idea. What a pity, I'm straight edge.

[toltec666]

@skullbonus that sucks for you, what a boring life eh?

[skullbonus]

It's not that boring. Smoking is totally pointless, I just don't undestand those people. And I can have good times without drinking alcholol, so that isn't important either. The only thing I'm interested in, is the effects of some kinds of drugs. I don't mean "party drugs", using drugs for party is lame (I think) but using drugs as an artist is, hm, that - in my opinion - is okay. Sacrificing your mental and physical health for art can worth it sometimes. Sometimes..

[toltec666]

is it even a sacrifice if it made you happy

[Dantso]

half-truth.

valamennyire egyetértek :D

[RHYSsoul]

Partying on drugs can make you a better person - I mean a much better person, it can save your soul. But they can do the opposite too.

[wabbylegs101]

@RHYSsoul it all depends on who uses them...

it builds character

[MIKEDURSTEWITZ]

@skullbonus Me too :D Damn, i thought i was the only straight edge to listen to Richard.

[THEMANOUTOFTHECAVE]

What album is this from?

Thank you in advance.

[kubuntuboy]

"Drukqs"

[THEMANOUTOFTHECAVE]

Thanks.

Got it.

LOVE IT.

Genius Incredible Amazing Monstrous Beatiful Horryfying GODLY

[nycpntr]

wack

[chree2008]

He looks like an Amputee

[yakomuto]

Sporadic.

[urvil]

those are the samples from the casio sk-1. in fact, that's the sample drump loop that comes already programmed into it. he just layered a bunch of drums and synths on top of it.

[DakaSha]

i think thats the point...

[urvil]

oh there was a point?

[JavaSpitLava]

yea i noticed that too...the simple drum an bass loop

[ivebeenswank]

Woah.

[gilmonteverdemusic]

people are calling genius to wrong people.

[Tansomanv2]

YEEEEEE

caralhas zD

[gilmonteverdemusic]

how this is POSSIBLE!?!?!?!?!? this guy is not from Earth O.o o.O!!!!! how the hell can a human do this stuff!?!?!?

[JavaSpitLava]

i havent heard this song in a while

daymn and im reading some of my old comments too....

this song is still awesome tech work

he messed with the acid noise a good bit

very great work

still impressed like, how the hell...

must of had alot of time to cook this one up

[LaraCgurl]

wow when he's not making his evil faces hes kinda cute

[mockuss]

i like Aphex Twin

[PaXx]

world news next

[AnalogNostalgia]

I'm taking control...of the drum machine....

[releewasgay]

I think this song stole my acid!!! awesome shit!!

[Anon1696]

For me it wasn't an acquired taste.

The first time I heard an AFX song (It was either Windowlicker or Vordhosbn) I knew it was the sound I was looking for.

I especially love this song.

I've loved percussion ever since I was little.

[Doyubi]

Instead of making up small stories about this artist, you should try to study him.

[DakaSha]

die

[overfiendk]

If mozart owned a mixer..

I reckon Mr James would pwn him. Doesn't have to be made clever just to be intelligent & new is enough to smack "modern" music on it ass

[sumthinotherthanthat]

infinite samples.... intricate drum beats and breaks........ delicious mixes...... What more could you ask for? pure genius.

[carcosa]

Someone actually playing a live instrument. Humanity. Not that this is bad per se...

[sumthinotherthanthat]

I meant, with techno music...... I love live bands too, don't get me wrong.

[carcosa]

yeah. Some of this guy's stuff is great, other stuff is terrible. I think he influenced a lot of bands and not necessarily in a good way...

[RicorbMusic]

I think all aphex ever wanted was to be in a band and play real instruments.

[soggysock666]

that is factually wrong

[COMPACTASS1]

turd

[PantherFox]

Why on earth would he want to be restrained to using acoustic instruments? He makes music exactly how he wants it to sound, and creates the tools he wants to use to make them accordingly. If he wanted to make stuff dull-minded folk such as yourself wanted to listen to, he would. He just doesn't care about you, is all.
