      He stepped outside, as he walked away from the club...its music faded and started to blend with something new, he continued walking, found this mysterious door, he opened the door and walked inside, an empty building with music playing....he stayed, and then and there was the rest of this album.

      ive actually been using this song to make crappy speakers and headphones sound good with an equalizer. trying not to have anything too loud or too quiet, like the hi-hats, the kick and bass, and the synth at the start. now my car speakers don't sound to bassy thanks to this song.

    I grew up in the countryside as a child, and whenever there was a snow day and school was cancelled, me and my best friend would take the wheels off our skateboards and use them as snowboards on all the newly formed slopes.
    I would have Xtal & Pulsewidth playing on my mp3 player as the soundtrack to those snow days, I don't know why but something about those two tracks really suited the snowy landscape. Now whenever I hear these tracks as an adult, I get the strongest sense of nostalgia and those magical snowy childhood memories all come flooding back.
    I can't thank Aphex Twin enough for creating this music. If you ever happen to read this, Richard - thank you for making my childhood just that extra bit more special :)

    • @Marauder1981
      @Marauder1981 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      I would say it fits because the sound uses mainly plains-soundscapes (like smooth snow) and with a bit of fantasy you can hear the jingly christmas bells in the song which might remind you of generic christmas song bells.

      Something about this comment seems so very comfortable and warming to me. I've never done K yet, (yet) but I had a sorta similar experience with MDMA. I crushed a yellow strawberry pill into dust, split it into two lines and snorted one up each nostril. I'm shitting you not mate I kept playing "Will Smiths - Getting Jiggy With It" on loop not remembering I had just played it a couple of times already. You know the bit where the "choir/group" is chanting that "Na-na-na-na-na-na-na" bit? I felt like I was in heaven listening to those voices, I felt like nothing else existed and I was just in a pure euphoric state that I don't think I've ever experienced since. Thank you for reminding me about that wonderful time.

    I remember the first time when I heard of Aphex, it was through his grammy win in 2014. At the time, I only listened to electronic music in the form of house and synthpop, and when I heard Syro and the RDJ album, I was turned off on how cold and calculated it sounded. But then I found out about his 2 Selected Ambient Works albums, and that was when I was struck by the wonderment of it all. And it all started with this song.

      Why? It was the definitive decade for great music. The last, in fact. It was the beginning of the end in reality, but it all felt magical, never ending and enriched the soul. The creativity was everywhere and we can largely thank electronic music for that, and sampling... Sampling played a massive part as it ensured everyone was perpetually looking back, whether they knew it or not. What an era.

      Esse é um dos melhores instrumentais que já escutei! Essa música é de 1992 e eu sou de 2002 mas parece que eu vivi aquela época pq me deu uma nostalgia enorme! Sou muito ligado a música e amei as melodia desse som, tipo um mix de sensações!

      Me deixa feliz saber que existem outros brasileiros que partilham do mesmo gosto que o meu. O Aphex Twin é um gênio, sinto que o Richard criava suas músicas com o intuito de gerar emoções, porque cada música que ouço dele me traz uma sensação diferente. E essa, sem sombra de dúvidas, é uma das mais incríveis que ele já produziu, porque pode estar associada a vários sentimentos para quem ouve. De longe um dos melhores artistas eletrônicos que já existiu.

    this sounds fresh and new.. holy shit RDJ was ahead of his time. i've been making electronic music for 20+ years and to think he made this before I even started is blowing my mind right now. i've heard his music before and I'm a fan but this is the first time I'm hearing this one, and my mind is blown that this is from before I ever touched a midi controller or piece of hardware. sounds like a new joint by Odesza, so I guess Odesza got a ton of inspiration from RDJ and specifically this song.
