'Aphex Twin for Guitar, Vol. 2' is now available on all streaming platforms! Spotify: open.spotify.c... Sheet Music: www.musicnotes... Tuning: C-A-D-G-B-E (Capo 1).
My debut EP 'Aphex Twin for Guitar' is now live on Spotify! It contains classics such as "Flim," "Avril 14th," "Alberto Balsam," and some lesser-known gems. Link to full album here: open.spotify.com/album/0mhEjBVbHDLAhwGD9ZydfY.
I always wanted to walk down the aisle to the original of this song but never thought the piano quite fit the vibe. This cover is absolutely perfect and I cant wait to get married to it next year. Thank you so much!
I chose this song for my mother's funeral a little over a year ago while carrying her urn in at the beginning of the service...so speaking from experience, I can attest to this being 100% true. Also, an absolutely gorgeous arrangement and performance of a perfect song.
There's something about this song that fits all of our life into a small handful. I just had my friends play this for my wedding, and I hope to have it at my funeral as well! I love that others feel the same. It somehow captures the uncanny beauty of life; sadness yet gratitude at the same time, and no need for words.
My dog is getting older and it’s difficult to see but a thought that calms me down or just helps with the grief is that everything in the cycle even if we can’t really grasp it and you can kind of see it in nature the trees have to die to be reborn in spring and rain must fall to go back up and water the earth elsewhere. There’s just a pattern to all life and I’m sure much of it’s unseen. But it helps me to think that he might be a bumblebee one day or maybe a cat the next. He’d hate being a cat. But maybe we are here to learn and when we’ve spent our time we go on to learn what it is to be a worm or whatever. And so while we miss our friends and loved ones we can also celebrate their life and wish them luck for wherever they’re headed next. I hope you’re feeling better now. I know that pain must stay but try to stay cheerful about the sad things in life
Wow. This is scary good. This blew me away at first listen. I've watched so many covers of this song I was a little let down to not hear pinched harmonics at the 1:00 section, as a few of the other guitarists do, but on re-listen to the Aphex Twin version, he doesn't play at a higher register at that part, so this is a bit more accurate. But let's be honest, those harmonics sections totally elevate this piece to a whole new dimension.
This is absolutely superb. I heard one that was nearly as good but arrenged for two guitars (the one from mike godette), and I prefers this one as it sounds very pure. You captured the spirit of the track. Well done sir!

I have played this song at weddings before! It works well. Glad that I could help!
How's the wedding coming along
this is so sweet. i might steal this idea!
There’s an incredible steel guitar version too.
This rendition reminds me of what this might've sounded like if it was composed in the baroque or renaissance period with lutes. Wonderful cover.
This song always seems fitting for a funeral to me. Personally, I think this song playing right before the ceremony starts is what I want when I die

@@incoherentalligator It really is a perfect song, you nailed it.
I would kill a man for these tabs
There's the tuning in the video description, could be fun trying to figure it out
its really easy to learn notation or even better just try figuring out by ear, its a bit slow process but pays back infinitely and also lot of fun!
im boutta like try and learn music just so i can play this
Just learn by ear. It’s an easy song
Hi can you make the guitar tab as well? I would love to purchase it
Considering the original medium, this is just about the best cover I've heard to date
i miss my dog
what a beautiful compliment
Loveless
I miss mine too.
