  • amazing.....even today...

  • By hearing this sound my the nerves in my head give commands to twitch in spasmic manner

  • not my cup of tea. but it is my cup of coffee

  • THAT DRUMS IS FUCKING AFX114!

  • Comment removed

  • I'd be happy if I saw the Aphex Twin Logo in the sky. :D

  • @MelancholyJabs I don't know, I might be cowering in fear of the end of the world. =p

  • @bangyourmom101 I'd be pretty excited, and snap a photo of it. ._.'

  • i think it sounds fine. and everyone needs to stop bitching and enjoy the music. its fucking retarted to argue on youtube anyway.

  • son of a bitch was doing this in 92'? I was like 13. Aphex for life!

  • Now to have a nice cup of warm tea, some cookies and to play Aphex Twin.

  • This music makes it possible for me to edit awful papers.

  • someone put the kettle on, please. more tea needed.

  • prodigy firestarter? naja....

  • Did someone say tea?

  • Very much my cup of tea!!!

  • flaangh ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff­ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff­ffffffffffffffffffffffffffphac­e ftw

  • fuckin' love it,man!!!! richard d. james is god! xxx

  • aceeiidic.

  • Gotta respect this guy he has got a flow and can mix any sounds together into a rythmic journey.

  • who cares if it aint everyones cup of tea, its my cup of tea

  • fucken aye great track

  • I think this song is great

    Partly because i like the drum beat, which is AFX 114 by Caustic Window.

    AFX 114 slammed together with a catchy tune makes a great song, with an unusual name...

    Perfect example of Richard D.James doing what he does...

  • @invertedchords could you shut the fuck up please? you are what your apparent lyrics say

  • jheeeesh it's just a fokan poem yo foken huer

  • i know poem is a loose term mate, but that is not a poem

  • Comment removed

  • EARFUC? makes sense

    the lyrics would hurt my ears if they were sung

    poems dont belong here anyway

  • Hmm, too bad the audio quality (the tape one, not this video) wasn't better, same with µ-Ziq Theme. I rather enjoy 1 min AFX 114 than this version.

  • Reminds me of Desert Crisis's afx118.wav

  • classic a&d

  • sounds like a fucking blast! I love it :P

  • The percussion you hear at the beginning are from the pacific islands, Tahiti being one of them. Wicked jam

  • this guy was 20 years in future 20 years ago...sounds still great!

  • or he just "blazed" a new trail for the genre of music.

  • he was just really blazed

  • quite likely that Phex actually put these artifacts in as more aural stimulation

  • its arranged very good, u also have to have in mind that utube is pretty bad sound quality even on high quality

  • all art has it's roots elsewhere, no one is entirely original...what matters most is integrity, passion and great tunes

  • you sir, you are a vagina.

  • s3ntimental, I don't know if he deserves the honor of being called a vagina, for they are quite nice. :D

    He's more of a butthole.

    Aphex Twin is a god. :D

  • thumbs up! ^^

    thanks for the correction.

  • @konjunktion26 u jelly

  • I still think I'm right, but now I've noticed the big difference between both artists:Aphex Twins Drukqs seem to result from just one basic idea that it seems so round and perfect.

    Venetian snares(search "twirl") at his best times touched aphex' genius just in a very basic way.Indeed venetian has more complex breaks, but they are composed parallel to his melodies..they fit to each other, but they don't grow from exactly the same idea, so there consists the "little" gap between both artists

  • I've often compared aphex twin's Drukqs to any very detailed well-composed venetian snares album, doesnt matter which one.(f.e. Cavalcade of Glee and Dadaist Happy Hardcore Pom Poms)

    First of all I thoght HEY! , the venetian stuff sounds so much more detailed and the breaks are much more abstract!I

  • you, sir, are a fucking moron

  • haha

  • So now what girls say is automatic truth?

  • he is a troll

  • Comment removed

  • You are fucking retarded. Drukqs is the best Richard has ever released. The best, ever.

    Richard himself says he Drukqs was the album where he put most effort. He is not releasing music because when he released Drukqs, he got kind of pissed about people moaning and crying "this doesnt make any sense!", because that music is ahead of his own time. If you believe the history of the lost ipod on a plane and that thing inspiration, you are being foolled by Aphex fooling the media in interviews.

    bye

  • when the happy "1992 family listened" to dead boring top 40 tracks such as Celine Dion or whatever people listened to back then.

    We were pleased with a masterpiece of "the xylem tube EP". That guy (RDJ) must be THE musician of all time...

    Also in 2008. No one can ever reach that kind of originality.

    SAW II is one of the best albums ever made. But he's The Tuss projects and AFX analord etc. are at the same level. Amazing how he can make music. I love it!

  • Mine too

  • Have you even heard his Analord stuff? Those songs sound like his old stuff.

  • Some catchy tunes beats in those actually. But still not 'ground breaking'.

    Venetian Snares.

    Also, This song I just realised is a complete copy of one of his earlier songs called AFX 114.

    SEE! I KNOW AFX, I'M ALL MODERN!

  • Rofl, you mentioning Venetian Snares as something ground breaking and bashing Drukqs talks for itself.

    Venetian Snares will never release something as Drukqs on his lifetime. He could chop amens and think breaks, but he doesn't has enough talent for that. Their music sounds chessy as hell, like made with the VST that come with FL. If you think something like "Detrimental" is ground breaking, and at the same time criticize Druqks as "pretentious", you lack ears, a brain, or both.

  • I meant his music.

    Anyway, if you get impresed by chopped amens in 7/4, have fun.

  • I do enjoy it. Listen to the shite on drukqs man. Gwely mernans or what ever it's called it fuckin filler. There are some amazing tracks on that album, such as vordhosbn and various other songs.

    Don't accuse me of lacking brains. My taste of music doesn't have to be the same as yours.

    You really sound like a pretentious git when you shove all the loop software abbreviations you know into 500 characters. I don't have the energy to argue with tossers online. You seem to be quiet good at it tho.

  • i dont know any of u two but i can imagine u two fighting with this song playing XD lol . it goes well with a fight scene, no?

  • agreed. money makes wankers

  • My cup of tea.

  • do yourself a favour and buy "Rushup Edge". Was just released last year and its some of AFX's best work.

  • Well, there hasn't been much to speak of since Richard D. James, which was 1996, but he has released quite a lot of music since then: the enormous Analord collection, Drukqs and the 26 Mixes for Cash to mention three. And you can't deny that 54 Cymru Beats is - for abt 25 seconds at the end - one of the best tracks ever made. Don't give up on Aphex. He is the man.

  • Doesn't this happen to every musician? A few have indian summers 10 years on, some like Madonna stay on top by getting other people to write all the music. Basically SAWII is a masterpiece an unrepeatable peak of creativity. All music produced since fails to measure up to this high benchmark. But so what this earlier stuff has been ghosting through my life since the early 90s and I've never felt bored with it.

  • I agree with all of your points except the one about Madonna. She has never been on top. Not in any musical sense, that is.

  • Hard as fuck,morbid as hell,sick as mental institution but awesome !!!

  • This track is tight as hell.

    Also about the "Aphex Twin is no more" comment, what exactly happened to him?

  • He changed aliases people think hes the tuss, but no ones really sure, but hes still deffinetly making music, we just don't know who hes making music under.
