Did you search for Aphex Twin? Dunno who that is. I'd probably return random stuff too, If queried.
Their search is useless. When I was buying a lot from them, I would use google to search their site.
They make music that sounds like what a tv/movie would play during a club scene:Did you search for Aphex Twin? Dunno who that is. I'd probably return random stuff too, If queried.
Can’t relate to people who choose to play this on their Hi-Fi system.
But wouldn't that mean HDTracks should actually have their music?

Like the MTV version of Brian Eno, back when there were MTV versions of things...

I can’t relate to people who can’t relate to what others relate to
Richard James could be described as one of the most influential and innovative electronic artists of the previous 30 years.

When I was 25 years younger I could listen to him and enjoy it. Not on the hifi now though.
I remember their wild strange video clip, but i don't know the title of that song, but i loved the video.
Yeah Windowlicker!

Aphex has been making music for 30 years. You listened to one song. Give it more of a chance:

Just listened to that video - actually that's one of the kinds of music I like quite a bit - though Aphex Twin is new to me. Bersarin Quartett is a bit like them, and there are a lot of contemporary classical works being written in this vein such as this performed by the Iceland Symphony Orchestra.
Back in my music composition days, some of my music was similar; I used the Fairlight CMI.

You might like Selected Ambient Works Volume 2. It has a lot of great tracks tho due to how old it is has some recording artifacts, clicks and pops:

saw ii is my favorite from afx!
here's another fav from across the pond, a bit darker...
I mean, that’s cool if I just wanted some zen music in the background, but not something I’d go to play on my system to actively listen to (and I have heard more than 1 song, like Saint Michael & Come to Daddy; and that song I linked to was off an album he won a Grammy for).

Ambient music might not be your thing then. I have tried to get into Country but I just don't like the genre. Too each his own.

Has anybody done "ambient country"? Might be an interesting genre.
I once wrote a country rap song for a movie I was doing the score for.- Thread Starter

Nice, what movie?
Politely requesting that @amirm add "Artist" flair so you can have that on your profile in addition to "Manufacturer".
Neil Young's Dead Man soundtrack has some pretty ambient rock stuff (maybe not country, but you could argue that country is also about that melancholy mood, which for soundtracks can't truly be separated from the filmic text, and this movie is very melancholy):
