well you're probably with the majority there, seeing how its average rating stays strong at a 4.3

If by dated you mean doesn't sound like what is made now then yeah I guess....But it sounds way better than almost everything made now so no.

I'd put Syro's production over SAW I's any day

Compositionally and technologically it's obviously superior, but I still love the sounds on SAW I much more.

"and @Judio: SAW II is perfect as background music. thing is, it's very particular... best for reading poetry or a creepy novel, or just for sleeping"



I've tried jamming SAW II while studying/reading but I always ended up stopping it and putting on a different Aphex Twin album. I just find it so dull and boring.

for me SAW II is the best produced, Drukqs is the most mature and this one is the most cohesive.

I Care Because You Do is probably my favorite at this point. Doesn't get nearly enough love 'round these parts.

do you like a lot of pure ambient music Judio? like I'm not trying to undermine your authoritah I'm just curious



cause SAW II is definitely more of a real ambient album than SAW I, which is ambient techno/IDM

Yeah I definitely like some pure ambient music, but for whatever reason SAW II doesn't do it for me. I need my ambient music to be interesting and at least somewhat dynamic.

I've hardly listened to this or I Care Because You Do.

I should probably change that.

Definitely do, JT. Out of all his albums, it's the biggest grower.
