Xtal, Ageispolis and Schottkey are by far the best.



Green Calx is alright, I don't really care for Tha or Hedphelym though, mainly because they just meander on and on and on.

Heliosphan is another of my favourites. Actium is a perfect closer as well. But yeah, Ageipolis and Schottkey rule.

Yeah, the fact that I like the spacier, more minimalist tracks better is probably why SAW II is my favorite Aphex Twin

listen to disc 1, take a break, then listen to the next one. It makes them both more memorable and easier to digest.





Radiator, Rhubarb, Tree, Parallel Stripes and Lichen are all 5x better than anything on here except maybe Xtal.

I used to listen to Volume 2 completely all the time about 6 months ago when my leg was broken and I had nothing better to do. Really ingrained the sounds into my mind and took over my musical life for quite a while.
