My dad gave me a huge playlist of songs in 6th grade for my mp3 player. After losing my mp3 player I thought I'd never find them again but today I found this one and that's crazy!
2 yrs late but music like this has its way of finding its way back into your life, generally at the most seemingly random unexpected times, but a time none the less, where that music seems to make everything make sense, even if only temporarily.
AFX/Aphex Twin/Polygon Window/Caustic Window, whatever projects he had worked on, RDJ was simply the most creative, unique, outlandishly analogue artists out there.
The instruments are top-notch but the melodies are just perfect. Aphex Twin is the direct proof that a couple of 303 + tr-808/909 can rule forever. takk fyrir og góða nótt
My favourite Aphex Twin track right now has to be Vordhosbn. I also love windowlicker obviously. Because my dad used to play it when I was a little kid and it was so weird at the time. But that’s Aphex Twin for ya! 👍🏻
I don't know why I'm obsessed with this genre of music, but it really captures my imagination in a strange way. It reminds me of being in a lucid dreaming state and hearing random noises and remixes of all the songs that I've heard in the past year...
Dude exactly I found myself closing my eyes and daydreaming with aphex twins songs on Like the song xtal i imagine my favorite cartoon couples sharing love shower Like. A shower with themselves And the song you can’t hide your love I imagine Marceline and finn on a crazy night when Marceline without any shock finds out that finn has a crush on her while they floating in the air And the song come to daddy .... i imagine myself beating the shit out of a tv man
@@ahmadmalaki8364 Aphex Twin was one of the musicians who inspired me to become an electronic musician! I've done a lot of music programming on Shadertoy this year.
This is the first song in my "Best No Radio" playlist. You don't hear bad ass music like this on the radio; only talentless bs mostly. So yes, Aphex Twin!
lmfao im literally laughing at how good AT is. on YET ANOTHER binge of his YT vids, and it just doesnt end. masterpiece after masterpiece. i hope to see him live before its too late. love u RDJ ;)
@@francesvaxinethank you for reminding me of this masterpiece. Haven’t listened to this one in a long time!!! Sitting down saw your reply on my email. Perfect timing! Full circle
@@user-pe3jg6oz7r haha no way!! i didn’t expect you to reply so early! i’m happy i was able to remind you of this song, it genuinely made my day reading your response. have a good one, my friend
This just popped into my recommendations after like God knows how long and I'm more than thankful it did. This track just sounds so melancholy, like a far away inhabited galaxy crying out for someone, anyone, to come into contact with for centuries only to be met with the cold silence of space, slowly snuffed out by their kind's own hubris. That is when the messages finally reach us as we too are shouting into the cosmos, a glimmer of hope as we listen for an answer that was yet to come. Alas, it was too late, for it took traveling hundreds of thousands of lightyears to reach us, as we are the last beings to hear the cries of a long forgotten civilization.
First CD I ever owned was a copy of Chosen Lords my father bought me. My taste has deviated since then but always find myself coming back to this track, even after all these years.
I love how this song starts out as sort of a dance track, like when you hear the intro, you think “wow, this song is gonna be dope!” And as the song continues, it gets more emotional. When the drums disappear and you’re left with the synths and pads, you’re most likely to get emotional. I get emotional every time because of how beautiful this song is.
you're right.. i still find it strange to think that the 90's were 20 years ago and i'm nearly as old... time truly passes ones self by when we don't grasp at it..
I clearly see two girls kissing, but showed the image to my bf and he saw a weird face with tired eyes, and a demon in the middle. Perceptions are so different.

awesome
Congratulations on finding at least one!
Your dad is so cool!👍😁
2 yrs late but music like this has its way of finding its way back into your life, generally at the most seemingly random unexpected times, but a time none the less, where that music seems to make everything make sense, even if only temporarily.
Your dad is awesome
He puts actual personality into his tracks which is surprisingly rare.
cause personality is rare, thats why
The way it feels feels, is he's speaking into our soul.... with sound
yeah its like the songs have vocals or lyrics , deeper meaning.
He understands music more than most of us do
And it makes it even funnier when he claims that he has no idea what he is doing
@@nn3937 what ?
I dunno i don’t think people force him to make these songs
Oh man, I haven’t heard this in years. Just rediscovering Aphex Twin back catalogue… sober and clean this time around. WHAT A TUNE.
Hell yeah dude. Same!!!! 🙏
💪 Dan the man. 🍺🚫
im only sober off speed not weed but yuuup so much better when u have ur emotions in tact
Lol this sounds different on a whole new level when sober
Damn, an Aurora and Aphex Twin fan, way to go man. She is such an inspiring personality and artist.
AFX/Aphex Twin/Polygon Window/Caustic Window, whatever projects he had worked on, RDJ was simply the most creative, unique, outlandishly analogue artists out there.
Was? He still is!
pigammon yeah first release in 13 years not long ago
Bearded Rizz
This came out in about 2005. His Tuss records came out in 2007. He's been kinda active, just under the radar.
Aron Olen so Tuss WAS him ...
you spelled is wrong
I just can't explain in words how much I love this track
3:57 hppefully he releases another ambient album in the future, his ambient music obviously still got it
The dat SAW III dropped would be one of the most important days of my life.
@@Swiatlocien yes
We got bblr which isn´t ambient but has ambient like sounds if ur interested
@@qubequbik595 Yeah I really like that album too. I enjoy that sort of melodic Aphex stuff as well
this is one of his absolute masterpieces
+Nihils31 Agreed.
His experimentation with sound is original and astounding. A true artist.
One of many, man!
I couldn’t agree more. One of his best for sure! 💎
Crying in Your Face, Boxing Day and PWSteal.Ldpinch.D were my Chosen Tracks.
The instruments are top-notch but the melodies are just perfect. Aphex Twin is the direct proof that a couple of 303 + tr-808/909 can rule forever. takk fyrir og góða nótt
and sh 101
Goodnight
I can't stop listening to this. Aphex at his best, subtle and beautiful.
one of the greatest timeless melodic journeys., that acid line at @1:55 is just peak AFX.
Gets me every time. Always will come back to this track
This track is amazing. Always gets me teary eyed.
3:58 I love love this melody
that melody is one of the best i heard from him yeah
@@Heliosphan33 Simp!
u giey pls stop
@@rotmgdabeatz they have to be exterminated
u giey let simps be simps, i dont think any of them are even conscious about it or feel shame
This song still gives me chills every time 💎
My favourite Aphex Twin track right now has to be Vordhosbn. I also love windowlicker obviously. Because my dad used to play it when I was a little kid and it was so weird at the time. But that’s Aphex Twin for ya! 👍🏻
omg vordhosbn amazing!!!! i also like "on" a lot
omg this was the song with which i discovered this genius...
Zharoff that’s a precious time 🕺🙌

i can't agree more. all i listen to now is idm! (still don't know what the proper term is but that's the most popular)
Dude exactly
I found myself closing my eyes and daydreaming with aphex twins songs on
Like the song xtal i imagine my favorite cartoon couples sharing love shower
Like. A shower with themselves
And the song you can’t hide your love
I imagine Marceline and finn on a crazy night when Marceline without any shock finds out that finn has a crush on her while they floating in the air

@@seanmignon4229electro acid music ?
@@ahmadmalaki8364 Aphex Twin was one of the musicians who inspired me to become an electronic musician! I've done a lot of music programming on Shadertoy this year.
@@jarblewarble good on you
Honestly me too i wanna make music like him
I wanna use ablton 11
The title of the track put a huge emotional tone in already emocional and haunting song. Beautiful
This is the first song in my "Best No Radio" playlist. You don't hear bad ass music like this on the radio; only talentless bs mostly. So yes, Aphex Twin!
This is so beautiful. It feels different than most of his acid tracks. So deep and atmospheric.
fuck this song its so good that i cant tell what i feel when i hear it... make me feel so high, and clean me inside all of my body...
THIS AND STEPINGFILTER 101 THE VERY BEST TRACKS FROM ANALORD.
Such an amazing song, didn't realize it at first.
This sounds like what running feels like, then taking a break.
1 of the greatest records ever for me
Dont know how is he doing …. but This is a big pice of my live. I’ve got 39 years and still listening ❤
hey, he just dropped an ep and some songs on his alt soundcloud account..!
@@extasja yes i know i am a big Fun of Afx 👍
I think its his best one, the chosen lords album is amazing !
this tune is one of the best tunes that ever existed!!!
He was way ahead of his time. It’s about to be 2022 and this is more relevant than ever. 💯 🔥🔥🔥
1:27 "My best friend was crying ... in new york"
"my boyfriend was crying, in New York"
my friends aren’t supossed to die
1:27
i thoroughly enjoyed this at .75 speed, messing with speeds on aphex tunes is a quality pastime
I see a wise pitbull
That means your insane
This song really gives me a chilling vibe through my body. I could listen to Aphex Twin forever.
Totally timeless
This track is so good.
MuikuliWander concur
i love this man
lmfao im literally laughing at how good AT is. on YET ANOTHER binge of his YT vids, and it just doesnt end. masterpiece after masterpiece. i hope to see him live before its too late.
love u RDJ ;)
Love This tune … so sad and timeless
Had this one stuck in my head so I had to come back and treat my ears
4 years after you wrote this comment… and i’m here for the same thing. this has got to be one of my favorite songs of his
@@francesvaxinethank you for reminding me of this masterpiece. Haven’t listened to this one in a long time!!! Sitting down saw your reply on my email. Perfect timing! Full circle

Richard James can get a reservation at Dorsia.
Reminds me of Future Sailors from the Mighty Boosh
It's a nice image and a fine track.
To think that Music like this existed back then. He really knows how to keep it funky.
While listening to this, its possible to achieve Void disintegration into a digital dimension.
and still exists in our hearts. forever.
What a beautiful track...
Can’t stop listening to this
Bro i cant understand this guy. He is alien i think
this is one of the best in my opinion
just found this gem, going through 6+ hours of aphex twin albums on youtube auto play...i'd say you tube algorithms are pretty nifty.
This song is great. Totally underrated.
First time hearing and of course a total masterpiece from Richard D
"I think I'm supposed to die?"
I hear "My best friend just died...in New York..."
TranceSFX "Why am I always crying, in the morning?"
***** I hear that too. I hear it all - ALL OF IT :)
The beauty and curse of suggestion.
+Ryan Smith "my friends aren't supposed to die?"
+Ryan Smith "I think I smoked garage"...

What an artist!
I love two songs of this guy for now, its this one and "reunion"!
One of his catchy songs.
What I -see- is a horned figure in the center, with wings outstretched inside the negative spaces.
What I -hear- is fucking magnificent.
the guy is a beast of beats
!!!!
kills the synth!!!
First CD I ever owned was a copy of Chosen Lords my father bought me. My taste has deviated since then but always find myself coming back to this track, even after all these years.
Favourite song ❤️
1:55 gives me the chills
Ive been looking for this track for fucking years
this song reminds me of im self employed
Beautiful track.

TransSFX...
@@vertsk8er419 yeah
And I love it, acid techno by AFX hits hard
@@vertsk8er419 meanwhile Boards Of Canada's got Trans-Canadian Highway
love this song
this song reminds me of another one so hard. but i love this one more
these dudes are living legends
I cry because you do (in my face).
My all-time favorite fucking aphex twin song
RDJ's most haunting track IMO
you're right.. i still find it strange to think that the 90's were 20 years ago and i'm nearly as old... time truly passes ones self by when we don't grasp at it..
that synth voice sounds like it’s saying “i think i’m losing my mind, please hold me”
True
i think its "my friends aren't supposed to die"
Apparently it's "My boyfriend was crying, in New York"
I thought that pic is a man's face with small eyes
it means you're suffering from depression
@@zzzz-yw4zk ... thanks for calling me out...
we all did
The trick is though, to make it more spinn-e is flip back and fro with the image
I see a guy with big eyebrows and a beard, blowing out smoke
This track scared the shit outta me as a little kid. And it still does to be quite honest. I’m 19 now.
I just LOVE this picture, both images are retained until...... He does do some amazing curio-sleeves huh?
the love of my life
Amazing track.
I clearly see two girls kissing, but showed the image to my bf and he saw a weird face with tired eyes, and a demon in the middle. Perceptions are so different.
another English punky trancey acidic classic from yours truely......respect f
Richard D James is a madman of 90's electronic music along with:
Fatboy Slim
The Prodigy
Chemical Brothers
and... Boards Of Canada.
lmao wat slim, prodigy, chemical - all trash compared to afx
@@TheWashableBomb also trash
Ewww how can you even mention fat boy slim in the same sentence as Aphex twin?
was completely kidding mate, thanks for being relaxed as an aphex twin fan should :)
I imagine that this song is what an auditory hallucination would sound like.
Amazing tune i can listen this while im racing
This is one helluva song though. ✨💖✨
yeah, is sic! i was a kid in the 90s, it was yesterday for me... 20 years since In Utero (Nirvana) this year, time is a very weird thing.
This is mixed perfectly
1:29 "My friends aren't supposed to die!"
sounds like Decal mixed with Transparent Sound. good!
Last minute and a half is otherwordly. Would love to hear an extended version of it!
Agreeeeeeeed.
sick. does anyone else see the hidden face in the artwork?
There are three faces
I see the British-based pop duo "The Cheeky Girls" having a smooch.
iT'S a vase - keep it moving
You're a vase - stop it
everyone is a vase lol
I saw them at butlins one time
and it makes me want to cry, in your face
"My friends aren't supposed to die" is what I've heard but never understood it. Still a good song
'keep them woke'
BTW it s a picture of a cat with a bowtie if u look at it a different way ;)
Fantastic! I have never heard anything like this.. it made me feel emotions I didn't know existed. This is now my second favourite of RDJ's.
First?
The homemade polysynth
Reminds me of 'Soft Cell'. (music arrangement).
If you squint your eyes you can kinda see a cartoonish dog in it.
hot lamp lmfao
100%, Grade A, Gold Plated, Top Shelf Awesomeness. Never heard anything like it before. Mean As Fuck.
sounds like antony rother at the beginning..
then... it goes to heaven
