Chord progression reminds me of boc. Discuss.

Am I the only one who REALLY doesnt get the video? Why a 12 year old? Why is it mostly kids dancing terribly with some rdj face? I made videos exactly like that when I was 12, guess I missed out.

You're thinking too much about it. I thought the video was cute and captured the feeling of the track well. It's just meant to be fun, and I enjoyed watching how much fun the kid was having while making it.

Gorgeous track, by the way. This is the first thing he's released since Analord that I feel has the same lushness as his old ones. I really didn't hear any BoC in there, though.

[Negamuse]

Thats pretty much it. The kid was uploading videos of him dancing to Aphex to youtube and they decided to use his stuff. Or so the story goes.

I think that's pretty cool and yeah. .. who didn't do that kind of thing at that age while playing out? And your sister and her mates would come up with a dance routine? Not everything means everything, sometimes it's just about joy.

Not everything means everything, sometimes it's just about joy.

This, but also, I felt challenged by this video and, consequently, I think Aphex is doing something neat here.

This is a profoundly "uncool" music video ... low production value, a seeming general lack of polish and planning, and not to mention it's made by a person in that awkward period of life most of us would like to forget (12 years old? Weird Times).

Not to reverse over the "not everything means everything" statement that I just agreed with, but I find this to be a daring and interesting choice on his part.

[AFX.NL]

I hear litterly nothing but Aphex Twin sounds in the music.

[breadmaker]

But don't forget that Aphex was doing those "BOC-esque" chord progressions a few years before BOC even put out "Twoism."

i don't get why this was posted in the BoC forum.

I like the basslines a lot. Everything else around it sounds a bit corny (pun intended).

Yeah I thought the video sucked. Nowhere near as cool as the Come To Daddy video/

because we need to shoehorn BoC into everything!

But I thought this track was much better than anything from Syro - The melodies were great, wonderful rhythms and a nice melancholic feeling.

[mono/chrome]

Brilliant track. Bassline was clearly made on SH-101 and so to speak this is something made in the 90's.

Yeah, that's why my prepared acoustic guitar stuff is an example of 1940s experimentation

[Cupz]

Also, the bridge in that song is basically Ageispolis all over again except with the strings being FM.

[re-phaelam-ed]

love it

[arvy]

Heard it, don't think it blow my mind, the melody I like, still my favorite Aphex Twin album is Syro, many could disagree, still, I never was his fan, some people who recognize my BOC tshirt somewhere at the party ask, so do you also fan of Aphex Twin? I say, no
