Our Take

If Steve Reich and Squarepusher had a love child raised on a steady diet of glitchy synths and dreamy electronics, it would undoubtedly be Aphex Twin. In his seminal album "Selected Ambient Works 85-92," Richard D. James takes us on a journey through a sonic landscape that is both immersive and otherworldly.

From the hauntingly beautiful melodies of "Xtal" to the pulsating beats of "Pulsewidth," each track on this album feels like a carefully crafted painting, with James as the masterful brushstroke. The ambient textures and ethereal soundscape transport you to a realm where time stands still and the laws of physics cease to exist.

But don't be fooled by the album's tranquil title - there's a hidden darkness lurking beneath the serene surface. Tracks like "Green Calx" and "Delphium" add a sense of urgency and unease, keeping you on your toes and never quite letting you relax fully.

Overall, "Selected Ambient Works 85-92" is a true masterpiece of electronic music, showcasing Aphex Twin's unparalleled talent and vision. It's a must-listen for anyone who appreciates music that pushes boundaries and challenges the status quo. So sit back, close your eyes, and let the sounds of Aphex Twin wash over you. You won't be disappointed.
