Jesus. Absolute banger. Brings back memories. Dancing on a roof in Brighton. This guy jumps from the roof over an alleyway. He made it over but that always scared the shit out of me. What if he hadn't got there. It was a high roof. We woulda just been a load of e'd up kids with a dead mate twatting around on a roof listening to aphex. I'm glad he made it. I still have dreams about that. What a pointless story. I'm boring myself now.....
That wasn't pointless. Thank you for sharing it. Music brings us all together. I'm glad he's safe... teenagers, especially high teenagers, do stupid shit
seeing all these new comments and 8 year old comments brings a tear to my eye aphex truly is timeless. People years into the future will be studying his music
For real, it’s hard to place a time on music like this. Richard makes music with so much depth, it sounds unreal to think this could have been made decades ago. Sounds like it came out today, the production quality is ABOVE god-tier.
4:28 one of the most memorable and beautiful endings of all times.... such complex melody. But then again.. it's Richard James, probably the best composer who's still alive.
Hands down my favourite electronic musician of all time. I was glad to find his music when I did. He was there when I was at my highs and lows. Brilliant man.
Not too hard, not too soft, easy on the mind, strange mellow and beautiful.. Listen to this when very tired for funny dreams or whilst stoned for an amazing head trip. Always loved this one its brilliant and unique =)
Its all about 3.50 and onwards. It really does take you back and brings memories of some Tudor Monarch dancing round in a play. They would of loved this.
One of my favorites from Apex Twin. If not favorite. I like how it keeps changing and blending between uneasy noisy heavy action and calm funky straight up classical music breakbeat mix.
Self thought. Richard never followed music classes i'm aware of. Thats why his music is so good and pure. Nobody told him what or what not to do. His mind is without boundaries. A good lesson to all musicians as far as i am concerned.
Don't shit on formal learning lol. It's your desicion how to use theory you learn from music. With experience, you learn it regardless, however what education for music does is usually just label and explain individual concepts. You only place the roadblocks for yourself.
I haven't read/heard anything about this but wouldn't be surprised if he at least had some initial training- even his parents may have been musica and he may have picked stuff up off them-if you listen to them singing happy birthday to him on drukqs there's obvious knowledge of harmony
This song is very DMT-like for me. The sounds that Richard can make remind me of what I see, feel and hear with DMT. Most specifically the intro noise and the high pitch parts that start at 3:20
He was probably;y on it when he made. It.. watch the Trash Theory channel on Richard James the electronic pioneer… he spent many days alone in his youth with electronics on acid. Psychedelic compositions are the bedrock of his work 😂
R2D2's wife after watching C3PO's training video "How to Win Any Argument"..... "Don't get technical with me!" "You'll be malfunctioning within a day, you nearsighted scrap pile!" "Malfunctioning little twerp! This is all YOUR fault!"
When this song really starts building just listen to all the layers and all the atmosphere. I can't even comprehend how someone could mix soo many sounds. and have it sound so good. He really is genius. I'm good at music but if I tried to mix this much it would come out rubbish.
A huge one. Melody is so enjoyable... Drowned in a package of crazy beats giving me crazy feelings. Rich, you have to continue to do these awesome tracks. Syro was really great, but you can do better. Now I have this melody in my head for hours haha
m0b1u5j3t Hell no, thats one of my favourite soundtracks. Daft punk and aphex actually both brought the electronic music revolution, thats why I like them.
m0b1u5j3t Richard is above all that. I mean, the last Tron is very bad, and it would not have worked, the universe of this Tron precisely does not stick with that of Richard. Daft Punk did their job well. And they're great artists too (Even if AFX remains a better musician).
I wish James had make Lynch's "Eraserhead" soundrack, or even Aronofsky's "Pi" soundtrack. I think his work combines with this kind of psychotic atmosphere.
jeez this is awesome.. how many times years ago i looked at the aphex twin cd in the store, among many others, and i was desperately searching for some good electronic music but couldn't find it.. i thought he'd be just like the rest and never bought it. damn i regret that now.. i'll be buyin one of his in no time
i like when i pull up to a stop light with the windows down blazing this song....the look i get really tell me what kind of person they really are instantly!
I didn't like this track at first, but now I can't get enough, and the follow up "Xmd 5a" makes the two together one of my favourite parts of Analord :D
Notice how the drums complement the melody in a very unique way? They go together, instead of the drums doing 'their thing' and the melody doing 'it's thing'. That's how music should be. Beautiful.
For years i tried whistling Aphex twin songs... without much success
yeah maybe beatboxing is a more suitable approach
@@MaatStile 8 years later... uhg im old af. Still cant whistle this
@@shagua2 love u sorry you can't whistle
@@MaatStile honestly the drums on this one feel so grossly watery I wouldn't be surprised if the main samples were from beatboxing
Singing them.is way more fun

Not pointless at all.rhanks for sharing
You’d be surprised how many folk die doing dumb shit bro don’t worry.
That wasn't pointless. Thank you for sharing it. Music brings us all together.
I'm glad he's safe... teenagers, especially high teenagers, do stupid shit
dude how did he get back to you guys
U sound like u had a brilliant bunch of mates
seeing all these new comments and 8 year old comments brings a tear to my eye

why study it in the future when you can study it now?
i'd sell my soul to have aphex as a music teacher
It will be a track of classical music in 200 years.
190 years left
Hi future people. I might still be around, as a cat or a capybara probably somewhere.
omg this guy is a genius, this is so mindblowing
undoubtedly one of the most perfectly composed pieces of electonic music ever.
it's right up there
4:28 one of the most memorable and beautiful endings of all times.... such complex melody. But then again.. it's Richard James, probably the best composer who's still alive.
Yeah that's definitely my favourite part of this entire track. Would love an extended version of it or the part at 1:30
the greatest
alot of opn songs have this style to them!
personally it’s 1:59 for me
@@dazeen9591 you always got to leave the listener wanting more
a man WAY beyond his era
HE IS THE PAST AND THE FUTURE The Alpha & The Omega...
Yep. You're hearing people, just now, catch up with his concepts.
He isn’t man. He’s god
Hands down my favourite electronic musician of all time. I was glad to find his music when I did. He was there when I was at my highs and lows. Brilliant man.
He was the era
15 years later, can confirm still goes hard AF
Yessir
Agreed
Hahaha was saying the same thing! Blew my freaking MIND when it came out back then
Sim
Not too hard, not too soft, easy on the mind, strange mellow and beautiful.. Listen to this when very tired for funny dreams or whilst stoned for an amazing head trip. Always loved this one its brilliant and unique =)
Sound like The Tuss
Damn this brings back some memories. Fit Wipeout so well.
The first time I heard this track it really shook me in such an enjoyable way, I had never heard anything like it before. The man is a genius.

Smashing, flamboyant, baroque, emotional, intimidating.
so blessed to have this on vinyl
+Riley Mccarthy and here you are listening to it on UA-cam :P
nigga said :P
Yes you are. Hold on to that golden vinyl till you die, that is true treasure,
clarencep90 indeed it is
1:48 that feeling when literally everything in the composition fits together _just_ right for the perfect eargasm
This song is very DMT-like for me. The sounds that Richard can make remind me of what I see, feel and hear with DMT. Most specifically the intro noise and the high pitch parts that start at 3:20
very agree

@@lorrenaelliott161if you know aphex, you know he doesn’t like to trip while writing, he’s said of psychedelics, “- you’re just fucked”
That beat at 3:54 is fire.
It sounds like R2D2’s having an argument with his wife.
:-D
R2D2's wife after watching C3PO's training video "How to Win Any Argument".....
"Don't get technical with me!"
"You'll be malfunctioning within a day, you nearsighted scrap pile!"
"Malfunctioning little twerp! This is all YOUR fault!"
R2D2 and C3PO are gay lovers so jot that down
@@andyz9793 Noted!
@ 02:00 Genius
one of the best parts in music history
Whenever i play this song while paying tetris, i instantly go pro
Been listening to this for 9 years and it's still just as good :)
When this song really starts building just listen to all the layers and all the atmosphere. I can't even comprehend how someone could mix soo many sounds. and have it sound so good. He really is genius. I'm good at music but if I tried to mix this much it would come out rubbish.
WHOOOO ITS LIKE UR BLASTED INTO OUTER SPACE, BUT IT'S NOT EMPTY AND BORING... THERE'S STUFF AND YOU'RE GOING 2000 MILES AN HOUR
+Sanel Okic That's awesome!
That's pretty much Wipeout Pulse
Preach brother!
I noticed the skips too
its disturbing
Richard exported the track wrong...
rdj probably noticed it and was like "fuck it"
they're not on the original record
@@stozmannpossibly to avoid copyright takedown I guess..
i feel like i just watched the best movie ever fucking filmed. this song is like a story.
and it doesn't even have god damn words.
what a trip!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i used to get super baked in high school and listen to this on my walk home. will always be super nostalgic for me
This has me fully bricked up fr
Such a sweet track on the Wipeout soundtrack.
that ending though from 3:49 on.....
Rich's instruments arguing with eachother
first time hearing this song in 2009. IT was like i left the earth at brief moment and ascended in higher realms. GODSEND
The distorted voice is in Russian for some reason - it says "Остановите /Astanavitye/ [...] [...]" Остановите means "stop!" in 2nd person plural
It's so crystal clear, it's mind-blowing. There's so much going on but it's so beautifully layered and accessible.
this man is a genius
This is truly interesting. One of the most inspired pieces of music I've heard.
you've got so many machines Richard! I like those fast bits
A huge one.
Melody is so enjoyable... Drowned in a package of crazy beats giving me crazy feelings.
Rich, you have to continue to do these awesome tracks. Syro was really great, but you can do better.
Now I have this melody in my head for hours haha
He almost certainly does still make them, no reason to release them just to do it though
Syro is my second favourite album after Druqks
That part at 1:18-1:45 really bring me tears.
the 3:53> beat gets me every tiem i just cant not bounce up and down
one of my favourite aphex tracks, the drums sound so believable and the ambience rocks.
probably my favorite of the analords stuff
+potted crispies never really got into that track...this, klopjob and phontacid are the best imo
They so should've let Mr. James do the Tron soundtrack instead of those two fellas.
indeed
m0b1u5j3t Hell no, thats one of my favourite soundtracks. Daft punk and aphex actually both brought the electronic music revolution, thats why I like them.
daft punk kind of sucks, pretty much all of their songs are like samples with a house beat over top. that being said im a big fan, but still
m0b1u5j3t Richard is above all that. I mean, the last Tron is very bad, and it would not have worked, the universe of this Tron precisely does not stick with that of Richard. Daft Punk did their job well. And they're great artists too (Even if AFX remains a better musician).
I wish James had make Lynch's "Eraserhead" soundrack, or even Aronofsky's "Pi" soundtrack. I think his work combines with this kind of psychotic atmosphere.
sweet dreams are made of this
Richard D is an alien. Prove me wrong. This song is from lightyears away. It's beyond human. It's something else.
Nah, he's a musical prodigy, he's a miracle that doesn't appear once a century but a millenia
He’s not from this planet
its been years since i've heard this track!!!!
thank you very much for the upload! :D
The start gives me chills!
Wipeout pulse :')
Every note and beat in this tune are in their own perfect place. Its ever-evolving. Blows my fucking mind each time I come back to it.
Absolute masterpiece blew my mind when i first heard and actually started crying towards the end. What a genius
same. I honestly think its his best track ever.
At 1:11 I’ve always thought that synth is a voice telling us something, but I can’t quite hear what it’s saying. All I hear is “Now you…”
3:54 is a classic moment... some of aphex's best sections come in towards the end like that... mont st michel, 54 cymru, ziggomatic etc...
Mount st michel is so fuckeeeed
Definitely. Just noticed your comment is 13 years old, but still on point
@@OneShroomTooMany Absolutely :)
@@WoundedKite You're alive! :DDDDD
Luke Vibert played this at Red Rocks yesterday. Was fuckin sick to hear live.
one of my favourite songs ever
i could listen to you for days, impressive man
1:59 and on: if I was battling Lucifer
soo soo beautiful
jeez this is awesome.. how many times years ago i looked at the aphex twin cd in the store, among many others, and i was desperately searching for some good electronic music but couldn't find it.. i thought he'd be just like the rest and never bought it. damn i regret that now.. i'll be buyin one of his in no time
i like when i pull up to a stop light with the windows down blazing this song....the look i get really tell me what kind of person they really are instantly!
incredible.
Love this, this was awesome while playing wipeout fusion. 8)
makes me happy
IDM da melhor qualidade essa cara é um gênio
That's blowing up 12 screaming cats. Echoed inside a Japanese subway that's the opening sample.
the drop just before 2mins sums up the energy capable of electronic music....
Thanks for the upload.
Analord 10
by Aphex Twin
Released: 2010
Catalogue Number: ANALORD 10
Wipeout Pulse❤️
This is the best thing thats ever happened to me
This is awesome!!
good old times with wipeout
I love how this plays perfectly even through this defective audio card I'm fiddling with.
My knickers come off whenever I hear this little number.
takes me to another world
favorite aphex track!
Best track for me about Aphex , so dope ...
there must be a trillion words to describe this man.
it might be hard to tell on some of his tunes...but this upload has a skip really early in the track, and kinda spoiled it, blinkin great track though
NigeThePython he might’ve put it there intentionally you never know haha
@@Tombrosapien No, these skips are not in the actual track, just this upload, if you know the track you will know this. 0:21 and 0:28, check it out.
I thought it was intentional lol. Makes me feel dumb
I listened to this stoned once. Blew my mind. Then I listened to it again :P
Very elegant track.
freakin amazing
I noticed that, mentioned it in one of my earlier comments :P
Awesome song, even with the skips :D
The first very 40secs of this song. I's too THALL.
Thanks Aphex
i'm a goosebump by the end
Eighteen years old! Nuts
This has to be one of Richard's best written tracks. That ending is just so damn beautiful...
mais quel génie............
+Charlotte HAENEL :*
I didn't like this track at first, but now I can't get enough, and the follow up "Xmd 5a" makes the two together one of my favourite parts of Analord :D
best trip for my mind
Notice how the drums complement the melody in a very unique way? They go together, instead of the drums doing 'their thing' and the melody doing 'it's thing'.
That's how music should be. Beautiful.
A lot of his tracks do that I noticed
probably he takes midi notes from drum tracks and puts it into melody during programming or vice versa. nice observation.
best ringtone
01:59 - they just don't make em like this any more
edit: 02:55 - jesus. That hits right in the deep soul!
3:53 is the song that plays when you defeat Satan
Masterpiece.
Aphex Twin - So diversive
I started to listen more to his music. Great artist
This song reminds me of a witch for some reason.
Aphex Twin and his strange stuff that i love
what a genius....
