About Flim, July 16 2004
This review is from: Come to Daddy (Audio CD)
If any of you cats got the vinyl of Come To Daddy, put song 02- Flim on slower speed (which on a normally 45 speed LP would be 33rpm), I swear it sounds so much better. It's almost as if RDJ intended it to be that way but released it faster to trick his fans. The rest of the (cd) album is great, the cd has more songs, some of the best songs. Mummy remix is terrific, Contour Regard fantastic, Iz-Us compelling.

This guy just scares the crap outta me. Listen to "Come To Daddy (Pappy Mix)" in the dark at 1:49 AM with headphones after (enter chemical amusement aid here) like I'm doing right now and tell me Richard is not one disturbed man. Brilliant, but what a nut job. Excellent beats, interesting melodies, twisted, disturbing, funny. Great EP. I think the cover tells you best what to expect inside, yowch.

Aphex Twin - "Come To Daddy EP", May 28 2004
This review is from: Come to Daddy (Audio CD)
This is my first Aphex Twin album and I just bought it about 1.5 hours ago. And since it's an 8-track EP, i've already heard the whole thing. For the past few years, I have been strongly into rap music, listening to artists such as Ludacris, Eminem, 50 Cent, etc. Then someone I know introduced me to artists such as Mum (Iceland), Boards of Canada, Prodigy, The Crystal Method, etc. So I decided to try Aphex Twin...and I am very pleased with this album. I'm going to go through each track and tell you what I rate them.
01. Come To Daddy, Pappy mix (4:23)
RATING: 7/10
02. Flim (2:57)
RATING: 9/10
03. Come To Daddy, Little Lord Faulteroy mix (3:48)
RATING: 8/10
04. Bucephalus Bouncing Ball (5:45)
RATING: 9/10
05. To Cure A Weakling Child, Contour Regard (5:10)
RATING: 8/10
06. Funny Little Man (3:55)
RATING: 6/10
07. Come To Daddy, Mummy mix (4:24)
RATING: 5/10
08. IZ-US (3:03)
RATING: 8/10
I am very pleased with my first Aphex Twin album and it motivates me to look into buying some of Richard D James' other albums like, "I Care Because You Do", "Richard D James Album", "Selected Ambient Works, Volume II", etc.
Another thing: if you don't agree with me that this CD has one of the most interesting/disturbing covers...you must have not seen it yet.
