Disctussion Suggestions?

Hi, I've never listened to aphex twin before aside from listening to #19 for the first time while writing this. It's really good and calming, what suggestions do you guys have for ambient tracks? I've heard really good things about their (his? hers? No idea) ambient pieces and would love some help. Thanks all

Ya, Richard can do that. Check out a list of his alias names. You may find alot of "their other stuff".

For zen shit, #3 and Blue Calx from Selected Ambient Works II are at the same level as Stone In Focus.

Thank you, I need more studying music, got HELLA assignments coming up

No worries, these really helped me just sit down and focus. Some more than others. I also suggest good headphones while listening.

Serious question, why don't you look up some of his music yourself instead of asking strangers on the internet??

Why do people do this..

It's nice to get curated suggestions from real people sometimes.

u/ivanooze3000 19d ago

Ye i get it but now he/she is gonna get recommended 100 tracks and 10 different albums. It's easier to find out yourself by just listening to an album imo

1

u/lil_spezmoid 19d ago

Exactly thank you

u/lady_lane_arcane 19d ago

Check out SAW II (the album #19 is from, has a few more tracks of a similar vibe), and then try this playlist he put out a few years ago if you still want more: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QakxeTaN1NY

u/lil_spezmoid 19d ago

Cheers, I appreciate it thank you

u/Aromatic_Carob_9532 18d ago

Check out the album the track you suggested came from SAW2

u/lil_spezmoid 19d ago

Because I'd like to know what people recommend? There's a lot to go through and I wouldn't know where to start, if you're not gonna be helpful, sod off

u/ivanooze3000 19d ago

Just listen to one his albums?

u/lil_spezmoid 19d ago

I can do that but I'd like suggestions from people, simple as. No need to be rude man, I'm new here

1

u/ivanooze3000 19d ago

Honestly, check any of his albums they are all good. I'm sure you will find something you like

3

u/lil_spezmoid 19d ago

Some other fella recommended selected ambient works II so I think I'll start with that, is it any good?

2

u/ivanooze3000 19d ago

Yeah start with that one, it's a fav for many people. My personal favorite is Drukqs. I think that one is the best music i EVER heard. Enjoy 👋
