Listened to practically nothing but these albums for about six years. Wish I could experience them all over again. They're almost too painfully sentimental to listen to anymore.
I know what you mean, some of my favorite songs were those I discovered while in a really bad time in my life. Now I can't listen to some of them without getting a little sad. Or angry, depends.
up there with a Mozart, as an E T E R N A L classic. First heard this when I was 15/ now I'm 45 and it still blows me away with equal velocity and all enrapturing magic and energy.
The twittering high-hats in the beginning seam almost off beat from the spacey synth pads, but it finally clears up when the beat comes on. I am still trying to figure out how that high-hat rhythm is laid out on a single measure.
Try not to cry if you are feeling true deep sadness without shedding a tear since this is in aphex best tunes it's impossible to have a favourite of his but this is timeless
I recently watched an interview with him and he said something that may or may not be true but I choose to believe it. He stated that after years of training he only sleeps 30 minutes a night and he creates his music subconsciously through lucid dreaming. That would explain why he's been my favorite music artist for the last 25 years and why he calls it Braindance, which happens to be my favorite genre of all time. Heliosphan is def my #1 fave track. It adds so much meaning to my life and it gives me great purpose to share this with all the planet Aphex children 🌏👽🦋💚
Verno V I watched a doco last night and they mentioned him lucid dreaming. Not only do I believe it, hearing that explains a lot to me. His stuff has always sounded kinda haunted and getting the music from the other side and bringing it here will do that.
@@odiwan74 Odin M- you're so right ✅ it makes so much sense... i have a few friends that live to discuss everything Aphex with me since i got all their brains wrapped around his masterfully created works many years ago. i had my own dream about windowlicker 2 and my mind created so much detail in the song, i could never re create it while being awake tho
I believe the part about the lucid dreaming, but there's no way any human can survive on 30 minutes of sleep per day. Power naps are good for breaking up intensely creative marathons though. Lots of weird and wonderful ideas can pop into your head if you starve yourself of sleep, but a nap can help recharge your batteries, as it were.
I slowed playback to .75 and it sounded phat as hell🤘 speed it up to 1.75 and sounds like an old school jungle track. Moral of story...you cannot ruin this song no matter what. It’s invincible!
flawless piece of music. i can say this about most of the songs from the album, but this one specifically. top tier. 30 years later it is still incredible.
Over the years, I've learned to appreciate the minute and a half of dead silence at the end of this upload of Heliosphan. It used to irritate me if it popped up in a playlist but now, the silence seems oddly appropriate.
This reminds me of college listening to tunes on this friends awesome soundsystem. It was mindblowing. I remember getting lost in the music and starting to dance. This also helps me with my extreme chronic pain now. It helps to distract me. Thank you thank you. ❤❤
Easily my favorite track from the album. Only one other high point in an album ever got to the same level: -Ethnicolor, from Zoolook by Jean-Michel Jarre
Ethnicolor is favourite song of all time, Heliosphan is my favourite Aphex Twin song. BTW, it's an interesting fact, that JMJ and Aphex Twin once met each other and Richard told him that his 1973 soundtrack album, "Les Granges Brulées" sounds like Aphex Twin music from the 70's. :)
Ive been going ape mode singing and doing random vocals over this album for like three hours and i think im gonna do an album of remixes from it, ill drop a link if i dont get too lazy lmao
A poem...title I gotta poo... Poopie get back I'm alright jack But just to be sure Stay away from my crack Push a car from out my brownstar Ya know what mean when I say I got to make some ice cream... ...I gotta poo
Coldplay also ripped the chords from Kraftwerks's 'Computer Love' on their song 'Talk'. I guess it's their way of paying homage to some musical influences... :)

love the way you put that, same feeling applies to many other albums for me , i guess music is such a strong part of our life experience eh
Couldnt of said it better myself. They feelings apply to a lot of things these days
I know what you mean, some of my favorite songs were those I discovered while in a really bad time in my life. Now I can't listen to some of them without getting a little sad. Or angry, depends.
Profound, I've done -the- something similar and learned a lot from doing that with music; listening to music while having complicated emotions.
too*many

Definitely adding it to the "Selected Banger Works"
Who's mozart
One of my most favorite songs ever! This blew my mind back in the early 90s and it's just as awesome today... Timeless!!
The twittering high-hats in the beginning seam almost off beat from the spacey synth pads, but it finally clears up when the beat comes on. I am still trying to figure out how that high-hat rhythm is laid out on a single measure.
Some cool 32th notes in the making.I also love that hi-hat pattern a lot!
Me to
Classic. You could play this in a hundred, a thousand years and it won't have dated. Speaks directly to the heart.
its timeless. this whole album exists beyond our comprehension of time, in the infinite void.
I bet when Richard was composing this he knew in the back of his head this is the one
There's something special in this track, that I can't explain
It just sounds so uplifting...

This guy has been with me for so many years it feel like he's always been there.

I can't say the same but, I can say that he'll be with me for the rest of it.

Nonsence 30 min day sleep will destroy any human

Peace, Chill & Unity ... : ) still sounds fantastic after all this time !
Music of the Universe...

This track is outstanding. Just. Like how would somebody not like this?
its good, I mean its very good for 1992, instead of some songs or music made today.
yeh, its stunning
still kills it all these years later
"Death Note OST 1 - 10 Tokusou Kira han" has the same melody
@@whatwhyy do you know what other songs?
Love in the form of music notes, groove on...
Вау! Он хорош. Слушаю периодически.
I wish the whole world could feel as good as this song makes me feel.
So perfect, this song takes me back
Takes Me back, makes Me smile. Flew from NY to Vegas and rediscovered this at the right time! Flying high! Weeeee! Meeeeee!!!
It conjures up (at least for me ) that aching wistful feeling of loss, the banging heart and the loss to the ether.
I love this soundtrack, is great for Lattice Climbing or just walking on evening in the nature.
Thank you so much for this kind of music. ❤
First listened to this back in 2000 an still unbelievably, absolutely timeless
"Helios (sun)"phan is an aptly chosen title. There's something bright, uplifting, and even powerful about this.
шикарный альбом!
The best song i've ever heard!
painfully a masterpiece of emotional electronica
This music speaks much more louder than words!
This is brilliant composition and should be played on every Classical music outlet, worth its designation.
Dziękuję że znów mogę to odsłuchać 🙂
The r/OldElectronicMusic subreddit brought me here!
🔥 💣 💚
Crystal bliss
Man this is a tune love Aphex Twin
uff ... I see the entire Solar System revolving around me now
Love aphex and this was the song that started it all!
jep - its the track of my life!
This sounds like the menu music to an early 2000s racing game.
i love this song but for some reason it makes me really sad
life used to be simpler... i feel the same. its bittersweet
he's a reincarnated Cornish tin-miner, that's how he mastered the minor scale (and beyond)
Amazing track!
This tune a is a timeless classic. Enuf said!
I feel like on a summer vacation in the hotel swimming pool
in real life nobody gets this music or even likes it except us ;) we have real taste in music thumbs up everyone
You're so right, buddy...! :)
I came here from ASuperEgyptian video, about Ancient Egypt Sphinx that looks identical to Khafra, one of his unlisted video
Grande 😉😉😉😉😉
my fav so far

@@hatzegopteryx.sounds3637I also really love C’est la vie from the album your profile picture describes.
Awesome 💚😎❤️
My favorite
Ive been going ape mode singing and doing random vocals over this album for like three hours and i think im gonna do an album of remixes from it, ill drop a link if i dont get too lazy lmao
Es como jugar a los jueguitos de disparos en 2014-2009 de flash, no sé si me explico bien
Such a boringly absolutely perfect song
for any depression I may have
It works like a cure every fkn time ❤️
porthleven and jamming this out. If you know you know.
best ambient work
Reminds me of biophillia by bjork!❤
Underrated
He made a bunch of records using that Incredible Bongo Band sample, innit?
Intemporel.....
@dinoccio classics exactly!
❤ love it.
Liquid gold...
from the 90s
Only the right minds listen
aphex twin
Splaaaash
Jaj. Fiesta fiesta 🎉
오..............
😁🥇
Half life 1, aphex twin. Im in 1999 again 😂
debating if he called it heliosphan because if you wack it to 2x speed it does sound like a helicopter of sorts
I try not to wack it any faster than 1.5 speed because beyond that it chafes.
More like Helios as the Sun
It has that rising sun feeling
🎉❤🌎🙉

Ya know what mean when I say

What I find interesting about this is that it isn't Vevo. Why not?

Same chord progression as Coldplay´s viva la vida
Coldplay also ripped the chords from Kraftwerks's 'Computer Love' on their song 'Talk'. I guess it's their way of paying homage to some musical influences... :)
Actually they ripped it from Joe Satriani's "If i could fly"
except, when richard made this track, coldplay were still at school !!!!!!!
@@Naive773 too true
La musica es muy similar a otra musica...
"444", Autechre
Ya claro... Pero quién a influenciado a quien?? Respeto por éste señor, ya que está canción aparece en un disco de hace casi 30 años!!
We irish though lol
what tthsrty245x2y54
nice melody and atmosphere, but the beat is so bad :D
The drum just needs more bass
Timeless
