this is like the 200th time I've listened to this song; I was just watching my cats snuggle up next to each other, and I began thinking about how grateful I am that they're in my life, that I get the chance to be trusted by such sweet animals and build a loving bond with them. It brings a lot of joy to my life. Anyway, I never thought Ziggomatic would bring tears to my eyes, as beautiful as RDJ's music is. Tell your cats you love them.

It’s amazing how essentially as you listen to this you realise there’s more material and complexity of production going on here within every bar than could be heard on an entire album by someone else.
What's also amazing is that you are listening to the old version that didn't even turn out that good because you can hear artifacts. I did recently upload the reissue from 2017. Link is pinned here.
+Moistened Mann Using square/pulse waves for your oscillator(s), setting a quick attack with the right amount of sustain and decay, having the resonance on your low pass filter set to the sweet spot, automating the cutoff on your filter throughout the track, and having the right settings on the filter envelope. If you listen to his stuff carefully there is no doubt he automates pulse width, the ADSR, the envelope, pretty much everything to achieve different effects throughout the whole track. A light amount of reverb is definitely present on all the synth tracks here for sure. Spend a lot of time tracking the notes. Don't use arpegiators. Try a combination of quick and sustained notes and try to make dynamic patters with notes that go from high and low. After you have a whole track of this or several bars worth of a pattern, add another more sine like synth on another channel and let the two channels play with each other in interesting and dynamic ways. Then add a more general atmospheric synth with a long attack and longer release in the background. During certain sections of this track you will hear some of synths will even sustain one note in background while the others synths keep going. Also, when the synth gets very "bitey" and more aggressive, it's definitely NOT distortion applied as an effect, but letting up on the filter a bit, maybe increasing the resonance and using some sort of phase modulation that is probably part of the synth itself and not a separate effect. If you are interested in doing this sort of thing, my number one (and free) synth that I would recommend is naive lead by xoxos, super under rated and it can do amazing things if you take the time to learn all of it's features and capabilities. You can definitely achieve all the synth sounds in this track, (if not exactly, pretty damn close) with that vst, and it's free. I've bought many plugins that are hailed as being amazing. They usually just have more bells and whistles that you can apply as separate effects anyways, and I always go back to that synth, especially for those 'purist synth' sounds, leads, and bass synth stuff. Good luck.
U're such a mannered youtube user :) ! Thanks for your answer, I really apreciate that u took the time to give Moistened Mann a clear answer! Saving this comment as well!
I like to put it at 125% which makes it slightly slower than the released speed but a bit faster than this. I can't work out the % right now, but it's 10 over 12 of the original.
do you know you can adjust more. I always get artifacts though and especially with Richard's melting pitch goofs it's apparently hard for youtube's tools to transcribe which is totally weird because I can do it better 10 years go.
haha you're right and I totally agree it's terrible but it was a long time ago with transcribe.. if you click the link to the newer version you'll hear the difference.. ua-cam.com/video/Anjw9jjcodY/v-deo.html
HOw to make it slower with same pitch in such good quality? Looking for technique and advice on how to when one have flacc/wav track quality at disposal. (is higher needed ???) Thanks

Slowed down to 67% so us mere mortals can try to comprehend.
hehe 🤍
Jesus, it makes you realize how fast the original is
this is so amazing. how can someone compose a track like this? unbelievable. At this speed, it gets even more clear how crazy this is.
i've listened to all the fast ones on Drukqs at least 50 times over. I still find new things upon every listen if i pay attention.
Most of his tracks like this he makes on a tracker, meaning he can make it slowed down and then speed it up.

This track is a masterpiece.
Kristopher Bernard Yes but at normal speed
Zinna Lewiathan Agreed!

I’ve found my people. I salute you.
Made me chuckle out loud.
I bet you also appreciate a nice, mathematically perfect vector curve, too.
To me it looks like "symetriady" from Stanisław Lem's Solaris...
9:20
man... 6:00 - 7:00 may be my favorite minute in music history. so organic and electric. insectile even.
I know what you mean dude, it makes my hairs stand on end. Total eargasm
sounds like something from syro
I hear it too
vertsk8er419 sounds like something is hatching
simply aphex twin doing his thing. amazing
best part 0:00 - 12:42
same pitch makes this so much better
yeah this was always a banger. i used to focus on specific sounds to really break it down this is amazing especially for the end.
Surprisingly clean.
The bogdan influence really comes through during the end at this speed
That ending still sounds so beautiful
pure lush track, masterpiece forever
I actually just don't recognize it anymore at this speed. It feels so foreign.
trippier than the speedier version
hearing things i've never heard before
this made 10:37-10:39 a whole ton better. To be honest, it's for that part that this might be my favorite song.
layers deep... in so many ways... and apparently in various tempos...
it just works on so many levels...
this song makes me believe that there is life after death.........something beautiful after death.
7:30 - 8:00
David Melcher my favourite moment of this song.
Seriously unbelievable
the ending
302 likes 0 dislikes. Love you guys ;) But I love Aphex Twin more!!
looks like the man has avoided marmite syndrome! I think to most who 'dabble' in listening to music this is too out there for.. lol, good!
aphex twin new old stuff, new2, looney tunes, ventolin, afx melodic
I feel home in these videos, the people in the comments are exacty like me
a track has like 10 samples, this has 10 000.....
Thank you for this. Just thank you.
surprisingly funky starting from about 6:58, got me dancin
same
Sound better than the original speed👍

*thank you for your attention, bye!*
Such a sweet little robot voice lol, the way it says bye is so meek and endearing it could almost make me tear up
genius
That was awesome!
Awesome! you know i was thinking to myself the other day: "what does Ziggomatic 17 sound like slow?"
amazing of course
Much better at this speed. Sounds like a completely different track.
Same, you get so much more detail
Completely transformed
awesome!
5:40 onward favoritos!
its a totally different animal now! very cool.
Brilliant :D
this is awesome slowed down thanks
thank you
This is soooooooooooo much better at this speed, as with a lot of the tracks of Drukqs.
best bass in this record imho
thx
ace
how does he make such great pseudo-guitar synths?

try and find a torrent for a program called Transcribe
Play the 45 on 33
Sounds great played at 1.25 speed... 😺
dude, how did you get this to come out so clear/artifactless?
Look 2 comments down, in the replies... (transcribe)
@@vertsk8er419 yeah i noticed immediately after posting the comment. thanks
@R thanks :)
2:52 midi received?
Mail received probably
1.45x speed sounds pretty much the same lol
I've also posted a 50% version wich is in fact much better quality and much much more different

Sounds like something you’d hear in Kahoot.
I want to like, but 256k is too perfect.
Why is it allowed
uh oh.. Party is over guys they're on to us.
