  • "Avril 14th" is a departure from Aphex Twin's experimental electronic sound, as the piece unfolds with delicate piano notes that evoke a sense of tranquil introspection. This composition stands out for its minimalism, offering a glimpse into a softer, more emotive side of the band's artistic range. With its serene simplicity, "Avril 14th" showcases Aphex Twin's ability to create beauty through restraint, leaving an indelible mark on both fans and newcomers alike.

    • @sumant6523
      @sumant6523 3 года назад +3

      At first he “stole” it and Kanye’s team literally told Richard something along the lines of “Its not yours anymore, its ours now” after he offered to rerecord it for Kanye at a different tempo. In my opinion its still sampling but the way they came across makes me feel like they kinda stole it. But the final recording has the re-recorded tempo and Richard D James was credited so in the end it wasnt stolen
      but yea both sides have a point
