Aphex Twin vs Boards of Canada vs Autechre

which one is your favorite and why?
>>
Boards of Canada have a more consistent kind of mood so I listen to them the most but I don't know where I'd place the other two.
>>
Boards of Canada > Autechre > Aphex Twin

Objectively.
>>
>>61282958
autechre

the most brainy

the most emotional melodies

the most original

the coldest at times


it's everything you need
>>
>>61282958
They're all great and my favourite is always changing.

Right now I'm in an Autechre phase.
>>
I like all 4
>>
I get why people always group boc in with afx autechre venetian snares etc but i feel like it's apples and oranges ya know
>>
>>61282958
>Autechre
more like autismre amirite
>Boards of Canada
dude chill lmao

aphex twin is the superior choice cucks
>>
>>61282958
BoC's music appeals to me more on an emotional level but I love all three artists.
>>

Autechre > Aphex Twin > Boards of Canada imo
>>
>>61282958
Boards of Canada because they make the best music
>>
>tfw still slacking on checking out autechre and aphex twin
i'd probably like them but my answer is boc by default
>>
>>61283255
I meant 3

theyre all good music though
>>
>>61283285
I mean I go in bleep but I have no issue with any of these artists (I'm especially quite fond of Autechre) but you don't find this topic of discussion tedious and played out? They're very different, anyways.
>>
music for slackers

kill yourself
>>
Autechre = Aphex >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> BoC

Autechre, oviously.
Boards of Canada is hardly derivated from Autechre and Aphex Twin is basically a Radiohead of electronic music.
>>
>>61283522
obviously*
>>
>>61283137
they both are desu... i hope they've fucked... :)
>>
black moth super rainbow

if i had to pick between these three, i'd take BoC
>>
Aphex Twin is mainstream nowadays.
>>
>>61283692
so.. ?
>>
>>61282958
autechre > aphex > boc

in terms of consistency
>>
Autechre > Aphex Twin > Boards of Canada for me

because... Autechre took the conceptual route of making body music non-danceable, wich is interesting, and really explored timbre and rhythm possible for synths, which are things I'm interested in. Aphex Twin did that to an extent, but I always felt like Aphex Twin tried to either go dance or ambient, and couldn't mix the two; Aphex was also always concerned with filling the conceptual and/or philosophical gaps of electronic music, which may or may not be interesting. Borads of Canada had a few great albums, and generally make great music... for films. I feel like they'd be beyond exalted film scorers, but are just alright electronica musicians.
>>
>>61283692
They all are
>>
I've tallied up the votes.

>Aphex Twin: 1
>Autechre: 8
>Boards of Canada: 6

>>
>>61285079
:'D
>>
>>61282958
None.

Because those three are all so popular that I make a point to skirt around their discographies even while listening to genres that they contributed to, lest I become a pleb.
>>
>>61282958
Boards of Canada > Aphex Twin

Never heard of Autechre, sorry.

Autechre > BoC > Aphex Twin.

EPIC

>>61285465
I have two interpretations.

Music for people who say they're smart but lazy.

Music for people who only touch the surface of outsider genres.

>>
i love aphex the most because i like what he puts out the most of all of em. i also really like him from interviews and how can you not like a man with a ponytail and beard who has red hair
>>
>>61282958
that order

Aphex Twin > BoC > Autechre

They're all super good though
>>
Autechre has Aphex and BoC beat when it comes to consistently putting out new material.
>>
Aphex Twin forever and ever.

Autechre when im in the mood.

Boards of Canada when im bored of the two above.
>>
>>61289629
>man with a ponytail and beard who has red hair detected
>>
The first time I ever heard Aphex Twin was when my buddy put it on during my first time taking acid. Insane tunes, but I truly understood it from that moment on.
>>
Venetian Snares > Autechre > Aphex >>>>>>>> Boards of Canada
>>
>>61291598
absolutely no way venetian snares is above autechre
he's too inconsistent

is there a more autistic looking group of people?
>>
>>61287961

Nope, Oneohtrix and Arca are the news Aphex and Autechre.

get out.
>>
>>61292320
How? They aren't even all that similar...

Are they just the only "experimental" electronic artists you listen to?
>>
people really into this say autechre
people who like is a lot will say aphex twin
people who just like to chill will say boards.
>>
>>61282958
whenever I listen to the more experimental side of aphex twin

I'm just like how the fuck did he make this

Like how can he just sit down at a computer and conceive this shit
>>
>>61292320
>Oneohtrix and Arca are the news Aphex and Autechre
fucking kill me now
>>
>>61292320
yeah i love electronic music
OPN, Arca, Tim Hecker, the list could go on...
>>
>>61292264
holy shit is this pic what i think it is?
its awesome
>>
>>61292264
Aphex and then who are the rest? Is that Squarepusher?
>>
>>61293137
(l. to r.) Aphex, Squarepusher, Sean, Rob, no clue
>>
>>61283430
this
>>
Aphex Twin because he toned down the reverb and does better final production/mastering
>>
>>61293543
I agree on production/mastering (except the mastering on Syro was...weird) but hating on reverb is a meme tbqh.
>>
Autechre, no doubt. The other two are overrated and boring as fuck. I literally deleted "Music Has the Right", it was so bad. I don't even understand why, I regularly listen to ambient such as Eno and Schulze and love those.
