One of those times when Aphex Twin wasn't Aphex Twin - Polygon Window hardware only cover/recreation

A few people have requested this one - happy to oblige!

The Yamaha TX81Z, DX21 and DX11 are pretty much interchangeable, and the bassline you can make on any FM synth

Sorry there's no MS20 😢

There's not much by way of sequencing, but what is sequenced is pretty unusual, particularly the discordant strings. Fun times.

Please don't forget to check out my other videos, and please do comment, like, subscribe, share, remix etc - it all boosts my ego no end.

Thanks for watching!!

Amazing work, I had no idea that was an FM synth at the start, and I've listened to this track about a billion times. This is an incredible recreation. It's amazing how little there is going on in this track; bass synth + drums + strings + mono lead + absurd amounts of delay - it's almost text book building blocks, but in the hands of a master

I wish you made more videos. I really enjoy them

[suspiciouswatermelon]

Congratulations.... you're Aphex Twin now!

[Cires]

Very well done Sir. I love the Polygon Window album. 😀

This track always sounded a bit like a boss battle theme in places. Really cool to hear all those components broken down and remade. Nice video!

[binchsoda]

Great vid as always! Keep em bleep bloops coming!

[tomparkinson]

These videos do a great deal to put in perspective just how much work these tracks take to create. Always excited to see when a new one comes out. Great job, as always!

Nice rendition of Windowlicker in the beginning

S1 punching above it's weight again! So crazy what you can squeeze out of it at that price point... This was an awesome video, killed it.

Amazing stuff the synth sounds are bonkers ! Always struggled with FM gear tbf. I was convinced there was a 606 in there. Such fine work Mr Bleeps !

I could never figure out how to get that Quixote kick sound, it's so good

At 5:30 ...I hear you. I don't have an Iridium because I spent all my money on two MS-20.

[anime_erotika]

0:22, ah yeah, the venetian twin, also known as aphex snares

[silvertongues]

That FM bass sound is on so many things from 88-91…. I recently spent ages trying to work it out…..
