Is it pronounced ks-tal or crystal
What do Aphex Twin and BoC have in common?
Both have to compensate for their lack of musical talent by making thousands of meaningless short songs and hoping a few of them turns out to actually be good.
its pronounced stall?
>>63942568
people use "x-" as shorthand for "christ." So you see shit like "x-tian." But I've always thought it was pronounced zattle.
>>63942605
wouldn't it be ztal rather than zattle if the x was pronounced like a z
>likes Aphex Twin
lol
>>63942314
Always figured it was crystal because of like drugs or something. Did they have mdma crystals in the early 90s?
>>63942643
>doesn't like Aphex Twin
lol
>>63942433
if you're implying BoC's short vignettes aren't good you can go fuck yourself with a rake tbqh
>>63942658
why
>>63942677

It's not hyphenated so it can't be pronounced z-tal, unless I'm not understanding how you're pronouncing zattle.
>>63942605
That's wrong too. It is pronounced Crystall. Xtal is a really common abbreviation for Crystal.
>>63942677
>doesn't like that I don't like Aphex Twin
lol
>>63942765
Zattle rhymes with battle which is pretty close to crystal. Don't know why you thought I'd be pronouncing "zattle" like Cristal.

What the fuck did I just read?
>/mu/ hates aphex twin now
too much tumblrinas and 12 year old for today
>aphex twin is wayyy too experimental for me
>>63942758
What I'm saying is that the z sound would run directly into the t without any vowel in between
Doing it as you say would be like pronouncing the ts in Tchaikovsky as ta-schaikovsky
fuck I messed that up
*Doing it as you say would be like pronouncing the tch in Tchaikovsky as Ta-chaikovsky
>>63942908
I still like Aphex Twin
SAW 85-92 is overrated as hell though. RDJ album and Drukqs are obviously his best works
>>63942988
But Tchaikovsky is pronounced chaikovsky.
>>63943091
Naw dawg it's pronounced "ME ME" fucking newfags these days I swear
>reddit frog
Get the fuck off this board.
>>63943018
>>63943091
So you've been saying tal? I don't think that's exactly a fair comparison since Tchaikovsky isn't going to follow the same grammar as "xtal." I'm just applying a rule that a lot of acronyms get.

I've been saying it from the day I first posted on this shithole, SAW 85-92 is good but not top tier. It's too dated compositionally to be his best (though sound-wise the dated aspect of it actually sounds really nice)
>>63943091
The CH sound is just T and SH put together, so imagine them separate. I guess a less confusing example would be separating PF into Pa-f... instead of just having the sound from the P lead into the F
>>63943151
I pronounce it kstal
>>63943175
Agreed on the dated thing. That's my main issue with it. To me, it's like Debut by Bjork. It has some really good tracks on there, but compared to what she achieved later on, it is a bit weaker. SAW 85-92 just doesn't quite live up to the quality of his later work. It's still good overall though
>>63943175
>guess a less confusing example would be separating PF into Pa-f... instead of just having the sound from the P lead into the F
You realize that words like pfeffer just drop the p too right?
>>63943297
It's still slightly more stressed than if it were feffer m8
>>63942314
But anon, X-tal is his best song. I would be impressed if a girl told me that.
>OMG ANON YOU LIKE FANTOMAS????
>I LOVE page 22!!!!

>?
why are you confused
That's his best track tho
