Silex "Alphabet" Album Review

Fully satisfies.
silex 'alphabet' is full of glitchy clicks, ambient atmospherics, haunting melodies and just the right amount of downtempo beats and bass to satisfy any IDM fan. Check out 'noem'for a perfect example. Each track averages around 6 minutes or more so they slowly unfold at a leisurely pace creating an almost otherwordly feel. Think brothomstates 'claro' and you pretty much have the feel of silex. A must for any IDM afficianado.

Aphex Twin "Caustic Window Compilation" Album Review

Not that great, But it has its moments
I can't think of many of the songs i really like on this album. Fantasia is a really acidic song. Even though the mixed in porno samples are kind of weird, its still a great song. The other songs i like are the Joyrex's and Pigeon Street.

If your a fan of aphex, i'd buy the album.

But if your new to him i reccomend getting the Richard D. James album or I Care Because You Do album.

Video Caustic Window - Cordialotron

Richard D. James alias the Aphex Twin alias AFX alias Caustic Window. This is a great calm IDM track from the 1993 album Caustic Window Compilation.
