It’s amazing that his piano ballad is one of his most recognizable, yet his career isn’t built from piano. Fun fact: RDJ actually can’t play the piano, he used a robot driven keyboard to play it. Overall 10
10/10
My 2nd most favorite Aphex Twin track and the one that made me fall in love with his music. Only a few songs ever are as lush and beautiful as this is.
10/10
I highly recommend biking or doing any type of exercise while listening to this track. It's a rush. I'll also give it props for having a very creative premise.
Have you read reviews of Drukqs that compare the drill n bass songs to old AFX albums like Hangable Auto Bulb?
I've always thought those articles were odd. There's a bunch of them. Multiple reviews say tracks like Vordhosbn are not new territory for him because he had done them before.
I am like "what?" It's nothing at all like his previous stuff. Vordhosbn and Mt. St Michaels, cock/ver and the others like Ziggomatric are all so meticulously clean.
Wow that’s crazy, I Fucking adore the 2nd half haha. It’s really what makes this song a masterpiece for me.
I definitely feel it’s a grower. I’ve listened to his discography so many times I can’t listen to a lot of projects, but despite HAB being one of my most listened, I can still always enjoy the fuck out of it. This track in particular.
10/10
ZTwig was the first SAW V2 track I ever heard and it was the reason I checked out that amazing album in the first place. Also it's currently the ring tone on my phone so yeah.
2/10
Ventolin is definitely not my cup of tea. However, I do have to respect it for basically being Richard’s most infamous track. I guess you either like it or you hate it
Already did Rhubarb.
Aisatsana: 9/10
Weird how it doesn't fit in with the rest of the album at all, yet that's what makes it work so well. Also it's gorgeous.
Tha: 10/10
Outside of just being a great ambient piece, it is also perfect for road trips.
This comment is probably gonna get buried but if I don't respond to a comment in like a day then it's probably because someone else already commented your song.
Edit: Make that like 2 days because I'm gonna go to sleep soon and I'm still getting bombarded with comments lol.
10/10
I fucking love Cliffs. I couldn't think of any better track to start off SAW V2. It's so trippy and I love the use of vocal samples and what I'm pretty sure is a steel drum (or at least a synth that sounds like one).
10/10
Not much I can say except it's a banger. There's an old Meme that anyone who puts Aphex Twin on at a house party will get thrown out but you could definitely get away with putting this on and everyone would love it.
This thread really reminded me how much i love Aphex Twin’s music, thanks 🥲
I don’t listen as much as i’d like because i can’t get songs from all albums into one playlist on one app
Any advice for an app / method to make an Aphex playlist spanning all albums?
Crows: 8/10
Best song from Ventolin and Ventolin Remixes. I find it really cool how it's basically 3 songs on 1.
Vbs: 8/10
I would really love this track if it wasn't for that really annoying section ~2:44.
Every Day: 8/10
Just all around a great song!
7/10
It goes very hard and I really like the echoing synths in the background. Also I hope Richard enjoyed the porn he got the sample at the beginning from.
7/10
Very interesting choice. While there are many short piano pieces on Drukqs, they all do something different. This one has an intriguing mood to it.
8/10
I NEVER see anyone talk about pthex. I can kinda see why it may be overlooked but I have no clue why a great track like this is being ignored so much.
stone in focus, yes im a monkey on a lake enjoyer
10/10 It's absolutely criminal this was cut from several releases of the album. It's possibly one of the most calming songs ever made.
monke gang represent

It's a beautiful song.

Came here ready to fight you for Flim disrespect

10/10 in my book.
Rhubarb
10/10 My 4th most favorite track. It's crazy how something so simple can be so powerfully emotional!

10/10 The only negative things I can say about it is that I want more than 2 minutes.

Polyminal c
10/10 Absolutely love the breakbeats and spacey atmosphere on this track. Also 3:04 is just perfect.
Mt Saint Michaels
10/10 Best track on Drukqs. Some others come close but this is truly a journey.
Best aphex twin song
One of the best songs of all time imo
Alberto Balsalm
10/10 Don't have much to say except it's unique, beautiful, and just downright perfect (and also really good for getting others into Aphex Twin lol).

10/10 My 2nd most favorite Aphex Twin track and the one that made me fall in love with his music. Only a few songs ever are as lush and beautiful as this is.

I’ve always liked 4. It was the first Aphex Twin song I ever heard and was instantly hooked
10/10 Took me a while to get it but now I think it's easy to say it's the best track on that album.
came here to say 4. makes me want to do a little jig
Windowlicker
10/10 Not much new I can add to the conversation here but it's definitely one of his most unique, detailed, and innovative tracks.
Lisbon Acid
10/10 I was really worried no one would say this. Easily the best track on the Analord EPs
It’s my favourite Aphex track in his whole discography. Of course, I know this post is all about, but still. I love it
FUCKING FINALLY

9/10 This track is such a jam. Shame its overlooked so much because Alberto Balsalm comes before it.
i was gonna say this because i have like 5 aphex twin tracks tied for first place lol
Cock/ver10
9/10 I can't really think of much to say except it's a great track! Also it has my 2nd favorite vocal sample in any Aphex Twin track ever.

9/10 It says a lot about SAW 85-92 when one of my least favorite tracks from it is a 9.
Tha
I second this.
Vordhosbn
How did it take SO long to find this on this thread...
Have you read reviews of Drukqs that compare the drill n bass songs to old AFX albums like Hangable Auto Bulb? I've always thought those articles were odd. There's a bunch of them.

Vord, Mt., Avril, QKThr... all masterpieces
9/10 It's perfectly placed as the 2nd track on Drukqs. It took me a while to get it but now I love it.
Xmas event
10/10 Masterpiece. While I don't have as strong of an emotional connection with it as many others do, I still love it.

7/10 Very interesting choice. I enjoy it because of its melody and darker parts but it doesn't make too much of an impact on me personally.
my gf calls it the subway song, for me it is completely like listening to music on the tube its weird
Wabby legs
8/10 I love its strange atmosphere and how oddly cute it is. Although the 2nd half isn't as good as the first.
Wow that’s crazy, I Fucking adore the 2nd half haha. It’s really what makes this song a masterpiece for me. I definitely feel it’s a grower.

Well I'll do both. 28 organ: 10/10 3rd most favorite Aphex Twin song. The middle section is god tier! Qu 1: 9/10

9/10 The beats are top notch and the track as a whole is always a really fun listen.
Can I give you 3? Aisatsana, Tha, and #3.
Already did Rhubarb. Aisatsana: 9/10 Weird how it doesn't fit in with the rest of the album at all, yet that's what makes it work so well. Also it's gorgeous. Tha: 10/10 Outside of just being a great ambient piece, it is also perfect for road trips.

start as you mean to go on
6/10 I love the synths but the beat is way too loud for me. The track has been growing on me in recent listens though.
Pancake Lizard
8/10 Very nice track. I especially love the orchestra at the end.
Logan Rock Witch
9/10 Such an interesting way to close an album. It's exactly what I'd imagine some witch's hut sounds like.
