yeah I'm 29 and having the time of my life. But I fell in love this year, got a job, got over my psychotic depression etc. All these good things happening this year is almost scary. Like 2-3 years of my life went down the drain because of that psychosis, but now I'm getting this... I think I can deal with it. I haven't been this happy like ever. And this all just happened without even trying. Good shit

... and... In honour of RDJs 50th birthday, a few of my favourite songs of his:




I could go on and on though, so many great songs from him over the years

What are your favourite Aphex Twin songs?

Nice :) I am very biased in that I always enjoyed his electro tracks the most, had to dig into lost playlists for this one

AFX - Untitled aka "Elephant Song

Oh yeah I really like that song too. I used to play it really loud to get a... reaction from people, but I've always genuinely loved that tune. Cuckoo on that EP is really good too.

This one's really good, massive sucking doomsday vibes:



This one was on the Japanese release of SAWII afaik, but I had it on some compilation CD. It's remarkable how simple and repetitive but emotionally evocative this song is through some very subtle changes.

He's a really varied artist. I think in 100 years people will remember his music as something genius. He's always played into that hype, especially in the early days, but I think it's true. His stuff is so emotionally touching, wildly diverse, yet inviting, approachable and inspiring to so many other artists. I've never heard his music and thought "I can never make something that good", it's always more like "I want to make something that good!"
 
Spent all night setting my tiny home back up to be livable.
A friend of my girlfriend moved into this cheap cabin recently. The place was completely covered in dust but she just thought it was a dirty cabin.
Even though she has been cleaning up since she moved in her and her cat started getting sick. Not sure how she found out but it turns out the dust
was from a fire extinguisher. The landlords said the place had been cleaned but that was obviously a load of horseshit. So she is staying in my tiny home for a bit starting tonight. I was using it as a shed of sorts so that took a bit of work. Didn't really have another place for most of that stuff so its outside under some vapor barrier.
Anyways,
damn its been ages since I listened to some Aphex Twin!
 
@Mister Privacy
We used to get all fried in high school, on one substance or another lol, and watch that (amongst other trippy videos: Tool music videos and other randoms from ebaumsworld). And then one time at a rave they had that video playing haha it was classic
 
I remember seeing that video at some point, forgot all about it. Shit is fucking creepy

Jesus christ, last night I too some etizolam to sleep. Then took a little bit of bromazolam since I was still awake. Next thing I know I'm waking up at 8am because I smelled a really weird smell. Went downstairs, the toast I had had in the toaster oven was in still and the toaster oven was still on. t was burned as fuck and the whole counter was hot to the touch. And my book was on my desk, marked at a page I do not remember reading. Went back to bed, blinking and it was 2 and a half hours later, and I got up since I am working. Don't remember going upstairs, last thing I remember is checking the toast and it was almost done. No idea if I took more, but my head feels crazy this morning. Stuffed with cotton, difficulty thinking properly.

:cautious:
 
In my limited experiments with bromazolam I've found it unusually amnesic for a benzo. And since I have a perma-tolerance I can only imagine how hard it hits others :oops: that reminds me... I should make a solution of some of that.
 
Do you guys ever check out the whole world of mainstreaming/capitalizing psychedelics? A lot of stuff's been changing quickly. There are all these things like bespoke $12000 luxury "spiritual retreats" with guided "shamanistic medicine sessions". Tons of conferences, it seems like everyone's writing a book about psychedelics. Lots of practitioners with dubious qualification.

I've sort of hoped for this day when psychedelics become more mainstream and accessible, but now that it's starting to happen I feel a bit like a grumpy old man yearning for the days when it was more cyberpunk and not so intertwined with the self-improvement industry. I think I just need to get over it, this is exactly what I was hoping for. It's not like it's taking anything away from the more wild + underground side of it.
