Every track is superb, but Cloud Cuckoo is my favourite, absolutely love that track.

this is probably the closest example of edm resembling the layering and structuring of classical music imo..def should be viewed more as one whole piece made up of movements, with buildups and interludes where he slows things down to display effects that real instruments cant reproduce:eyespop:and the he build to another peak..really awesome stuff
DjConfessions
wavy gravy for sure!

^^^ yeah its the only version i think that was made, it's really got the airdrawndagger feeling to it oh and incase anyone didnt know "Airdrawndagger" is a word from shakespearean play's, it means an outburst of emotion, at least thats what discogs told me.

Oh come on man. It's a good album, but it isn't that good.

i never said it was amazing, i merely pointed out that it contains elements more similar to ways classical music is structured because of its overall flow..and yes i have played classical music so im not just pullin outta thin air...granted classical music is ultimately much more difficult to perfect because of the various components involved which u cant just tweak with a computer or mixer

Yeah, but there are other EDM albums that do the same thing... you said it as if Airdrawndagger is the lone album to do this well, like it stands above the competition.
PlasticSoul
all tracks, best artist album ever.
Omega_Blue
cloud cuckoo

I definitely agree with you here!!!


I find these electronica/EDM albums to be waaayyy better...

Bola- All three albums!!! ("Soup", "Fyuti" and "Gnayse")underrated electronica masterpieces.
Boom Bip- "Blue Eyed in A Red Room".
Global Communication- "76 14"
Boards of Canada- "The Campfire Headphase"
Underworld- "Second Toughest of the Infants"
Orbital- "In Sides"(and maybe "snivilisation")
Autechre- "Incanabula"
Aphex twin- "Selected Ambient Works 2"
Ulrich Schnauss- "A Strangely Isolated Place"
Biosphere- "Substrata"
Telefon Tel Aviv- "Fahrenheit Fair Enough"

And in the "avant-garde-experimental" side of things

Labradford- "Prazision" and "A Stable Reference" LPs.

I personally find sasha's album to be full of cliches and typical new-agey/ambient atmospheres. Nothing special i think.Really Far from classical music...

To me, it's second to Ulrich Schnauss for artist albums... but then again, I don't buy a whole lot of artist albums, so I may be talking out of my bum. I really do love the album though, and it's a pretty strong testiment to it that it is still enjoyable four years later.
