Got this on vinyl still, played it on many pre-nights out, it was frickin mesmorising, music sucked up town after listening to this before heading out, back then I always wished there was some kind of Aphex Twin club you could head to lol
I swear this entire album is just brilliant. Each song makes even the smallest things seem so meaningful and intense. I was just listening to this while playing solitaire and I seriously felt like the games outcome would change world history.
this song, i believe, might be a sample from a Russian song called: "Nas Ne Dagoniat" (Translated: "They will not catch up to us"). If you listen to 0:52 of Nas Ne Dagoniat, you will probably hear what i am talking about. check it out for yourself!!!
@TheShledge So do you think that Nas Ne Dagoniat sampled this song? Or is there a common sound from which both songs we are talking about drew inspiration from?
@TheShledge I know you probably think of yourself as a person with an ear for music, but i have to disagree with your analysis. While the two songs are obviously not the same, they definitely sound similar, and you'd be lying to yourself to say they didn't sound similar. In any case, i don't really care at all for that matter what your uneducated, pompous little head thinks. If i wanted an argument, i would be a lawyer, so please fuck off.
So disagreeing with you is apparently makes me "uneducated and pompous". Get over yourself.
You argued this was based off a later song first of all, and you insist both sound very similar when in reality the melody is only vaguely similar. When I disagreed with the latter, you spat the dummy.
So if anything, "uneducated and pompous" really applies more to you.
i love his ideas...they are very captivating....he captures this funk with soul and heart mixed with some noises that make me wonder what made him want to put such a silly sound in such a deep song....but when the sound hits the humor turns too quickly and then its gone.....he honestly is the only artist who puts a smile on my face....i am amsed
totally agree..... I remember an interview with him talking around the quality of the "master tapes" which were actually made on cassette and he stated the audio quality was shit....... tendency to rip the piss out the musical fraternity but this track was amazing
i remember listening to this on my 45 minute bus ride to high school my freshman year blitzed out of my mind. always a good morning.

For those reason and others I would have to say this album had a huge influence on me growing up. 38 now and I can hear why I loved it so much.

They sound nothing alike. Vaguely similar melody, but definitely not sampling. To be honest you'd have to be tone deaf to think they're the same.
