[editor]

“I felt violated, like my soul was violated,” she concludes.

At what point in the video do I need to fast forward to?

Actually she's unbearable. I can't listen to it again.

I've skipped through it a bit and couldn't find where she's on about it.

So, er...what about the fact she didn't like it?

ETA actually she doesn't even say she didn't like it, only gave the impression she found it weird and a bit scary. Which tbh some of AT stuff is.

But what IS the point of the OP? That a young woman hasn't heard of Aphex Twin and should (why?) or her reaction to it, the words she used, etc. Is it funny, or tragic?

Or rather what does editor think?

 

[butchersapron]

She was open to the experience, it just wasn't what she expected. Fair play to her.

Along with others online, I found her reaction mildly amusing and I also find the whole YouTubing 'personality' thing interesting and maybe worth a thread, but it's really no big deal.

Threads of no interest to me get started every day, but I don't often feel the need to post on them repeatedly, if ever.

Like at first, I was like, yeah, and then like later, I was like, naa.

Aphex Twin not mor edm shocker.

I didn't say it wasn't interesting. I found what she said interesting enough to skim through tbh. I don't post on threads I don't find interesting. There are thousands. I tend to mention why I start them on the rare occasions I do, though, that's all.

A thread about YouTubers in general could be very interesting indeed. Hope you start one.

The most impressive thing about it is that someone can actually talk for that long about anything on a video, let alone a festival. *old*

I’m alright tbh

 

[FridgeMagnet]

I'm not sure I would like to accidentally walk into an aphex twin gig while on acid myself, tbh.

 

[skyscraper101]

All I can hear is neeer neeeeear neeear neeear neeeaaar in a whiney American accent.

I can't even tell what she's going on about.

No.

</old>

I would.

I've done this (festival, can't remember where) and it wasn't Aphex Twin who wigged me out as much as the batshit crazy dancing of his fans who made Bez look like a member of the Bolshoi ballet.

 

[rutabowa]

This is probably a better listen than the youtuber

Just about anything is a better listen.

Exactly. And if she wanted to go on Youtube and talk about it - well, that's what them young 'uns do. And in her own accent and mode of speaking too! *faints*

 

[FridgeMagnet]

I would.

Really it's more that I don't like acid rather than that I don't like Aphex Twin. I don't really think anything even slightly stimulating is good for me on acid. At least it wouldn't be Squarepusher.

 

[killer b]

The only possible circumstances I'd take acid now would be to go to a gig tbh (though probs not apex twin, it was far too crowded last time I saw him)

A friend once played “Come To Daddy” on repeat for over an hour whilst we were tripping. I’ve never really known if it was deliberate on his part or a terrible mistake.

Why do they edit like that, these YT influencers. The choppy jarring thing? For some effect or because they can’t speak more than a few sentences at a time?

Because they are awful.

The girl in the video reminds me of one of my nieces, I love her. The Aphex Twin set was the bollox, could listen to it/it’s like forever. The idea of Investing in an LSD trip now puts the fear of god into me.
