this is among afx' most minimal industrial techno slam, with most of the sound focused on the heaviest of distorted kicks, noisy clanking sounds, and a high pitched string or hypnotic touch of synth. it sounds so simple andl in its construction but the choices of sounds and pacing is just so masterful. classic release -

Quoth is an industrial hardcore techno monster and does what it says on the tin. Actually, a 'tin' or tin wasn't provided with this record. More like articulated lorry parts, heavy industrial machinery, giant jackhammers, massive ship building yards, cranes and iron furnaces. Brutal.
Iketa is so underrated. It's deep, it's dark and it's twisted. Love the way it drops from rather cold, melancholic ambient pads to a sinister, bass heavy acidic power riff. On top of expertly crafted TR-808 beats and deep Acidic Electro Techno gated undertones. -

Banging old techno ! Love it - Which tube station were in you in Richard ;) Underground sound indeed ! -

Edited 18 years ago"Quoth" is truly a smashing track with a loud bass and percussions and sounds derived from the London Underground. It is being said that Richard D. James went into the field with his sound recorder and was fascinated by the sounds trains make.
If you listen carefully you can hear the sounds of trains running on the tracks. Maybe this explains the cover of this release. The artist is running down the stairs on an underground station in London (I think).
This is one is not for your average birthday party, but for hard house-heads.

Edited 19 years agoGreat track - all driving, clattering, metallic percussion. A real groundbreaking track and one of the first techno releases to really get the attention of the indie-kids back in 1993. This was released and deleted on the same day, on nice opaque vinyl.

I don´t know it exactly, but I think that no release of Aphex Twin is such a 100%-Techno-track like this one. This is one of the few tracks by him you could really play in a club and the people can dance to it in a normal way - neither chilling in the corner nor flipping totally out!
