    What type of fucking genius decided to modulate reverb!? This fucking man. Truly every aspect of music production is used as a beat. Mind boggling. Imagine having the capability to put a beat to fucking static.

      I always wished someone would ask Vince Clarke (Erasure) what he thought of Aphex Twin. Given that Clarke almost exclusively creates his sounds from scratch on analog synths.

    this track is just so beautiful man.. I cant even explain how it just effects me every time. 0:19 The robot part mixed with the drum beat makes me feel invincible, unstoppable, on the verge of greatness! 1:31 When the slow harpsichord part comes in it reminds me of how fragile life is and how peculiar everything is, 1:46 when the robot part comes back its like a "everything IS fragile and peculiar BUT FUCK IT! LETS DANCE!"

  • @e.a1877
    @e.a1877 Рік тому +8

    As far as electronic music goes - shit, as far as Aphex’s discography goes - this is (in my opinion) one of the most well organised, well structured orchestrations to exist. The layering is nothing short of exquisite. Sonically, this is a thousand-hour, handwoven Persian rug, constructed with the finest fibres known to man - not some cheap, machine made (the irony!) replication.
    With Fenix Funk I find that, with each listen, I explore a separate pocket of sound, some channel of reverb that seems purposefully there, or the joyful location of a synth springing in the background teasing a return. It’s the musical equivalent of pond water; okay, it might seem a bit different, but until you put it under a microscope, you don’t realise how alive it really is.

  • @Acoustic-Rabbit-Hole
    @Acoustic-Rabbit-Hole Рік тому +3

    I'm in my studio and I can confirm that this was recorded at about A-426 Hz tuning. Making it close to A-432 Scientific Tuning, and VERY far from standardized A-440. I am an A-432 composer and find it quite fascinating since his youth, when opening his first synthesizer, he looked at the preset tuning (A-440 Hz) and said to himself that it must be a conspiracy. He never looked back. God bless 'em.

    • @efmusic04
      @efmusic04 Рік тому +2

      432 is not scientific tuning... All tuning frequencies are completely redundant - what matters more is harmonic relationships which remain the same in 12-TET.

    Only decent thing I've ever heard by him, although it would be better without the boring d'n'b drum loop

      pinkstrumpet Did you really listen all of his discography ? If you like this one, you must love a lot of others.

    Stumbled on the Chosen Lords compilation unbeknownst of the Analord releases, years ago. First 20 seconds made me smile real wide, and every bit of the rest of the compilation "yup, he still has it, big time"
