бля да отстаньте вы от меня, это можно свихнуться целый час какие то свистелки перделки слушать
Not sure how it got SO many listens on Spotify. Unremarkable background noise. One long irritating song.
There are only a few electronica/techno bands that I would pay attention to, and I know this band may be considered the grandfather of techno, yet there’s nothing here that tickles my ear.
Nice ambient group. Nice having this type of music at times.
It's not bad, but not for me. I would not listen to this for enjoyment as there is no emontional connection what so ever. It's ok for background music.
Zzzzz Two hours later I thought the album had automatically restarted ....it hadn't ...it was a fly caught inside my office window, desperately trying to get out
Not my cup of tea at all
I’d expect to hear this crap at 4am while on 17 pingas at a terrible techno club.
1 hour and 15 minutes felt like about 7 years...
It didn't take long for me to decide I didn't like this
If I were to open a hair salon or spa in the midwest and wanted to project oan image of trying to hard to be nre age eccentric while bringing "a bit of the big city to middle America" I would loop this album. I can practically taste the hair spray just listening to it.
I'm allergic to electronica so this was an absolute nightmare but I'm sure he was a cool 13-14 year old.
Thought aliens were gonna abduct me listening to this... Not my thing.
Nothing against electronic music but found this uninteresting.
Mag ich nicht. Ist das Funk?
God, I fucking hate ambient music
Interesting but it was literally just sound so it didn’t click with me
Just noises
Pure garbage. Why would anyone listen to this on purpose?
Ambient Electronica…75 minutes of it. And it is everything I feared it would be. Completely unengaging, completely unremarkable, completely forgettable. Certainly NOT essential. Background music for those time when you want to know that the music won’t intrude on whatever it is you’re doing. Actually, it didn’t take long to get downright annoying. I started skipping songs part way through, and couldn’t last till the end. 1/5
Don't think I need to listen to ambient music in any way before I die. I think my life is perfectly fine without it.
"Selected Ambient Works 85-92" is the worst album I've rated (so far) on this list... but, after over 300 reviews, it's the second worst album. A nightmare of baby powder, fluffy clouds, used diapers, and wretched hot boxing.
This was SO LONG and it was not pleasant. One song actually hurt my ears with the repeated notes.
Maybe one or two songs. But a whole album of this! No.
Ambient electronic. No thanks.
Nope
So much noise
There is not a soul in the world, including Brian Eno himself, that could convince me that electronic music as a genre is the least interesting thing to happen to music. I don't care about influence or technical prowess if the whole album is a bag of shit that a braindead coma patient could out perform. Whoever added this album on the list was trying to upset me and it worked. I'm on vacation. Give me something good. 1/5
Not ambient enough to be enjoyable
Not my style

Ethereal background music
More ambient BS 🥱😴
Don't know who they are and I don't care. I will not be listening to them ever again. This was a truly ghastly record and should have never been allowed to see the light of day. Was a waste of my time
Uih - Industrial… -> please give me other stuff. Thanx :-)
Do not like
Not my music
Noooi
the foundation for an excellent electronic album is here, but then absolutely nothing is done with it. it is truly designed to be ambient music, so there is nothing notable about it. this album is designed to be nothing, so my rating will give it the same

# 150 : Can't Listen - don't like it - Just the name of it sounds bad…. Another long and drawn out piece of BORING elevator music.
Noise
Art Of Noise was good. This was just annoying to me.
Didn't like
1+
I feel I’m wasting hours of my life listening to god awful albums like this one. NEXT!
Not a fan. Industrial Anya with no cohesion.
Not my jam. Could hear how it's influenced modern electronic but the songs never seemed to hit the part I would like.
really boring :(
So tired of electronic music selections.
I thought this felt aimless and too dull. I can’t see how it would be 1 of the 1001 albums to listen to before you die.
Don’t see the appeal whatsoever except as a movie soundtrack. Doesn’t stand on its own one bit in my opinion.
uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha uncha one star.
I'm very much surprised. I know and like Aphex Twin from songs like Come To Daddy, or whatever his other good songs are named. But I've never heard of his ambient work and I wish it would remain this way forever. Is it revolutionary? Maybe at the time, I'm not historian to say that. But is it nice to listen to right now, in 21st century? Not even in the slightest. What I remember from this album is a constant stomach ache from those beautiful tracks. So just let me forget it and move one to next one.
¿?
Boring
I know it’s considered amazing and classic and groundbreaking but it’s just dull to my ears. Ambient techno does NOTHING for me or too me. Maybe if I was a robot in 1993 I’d find this amazing, but even the robots now would likely find this too simplistic. Sorry not sorry.
Half hold music, and half the background music after you finish a race in F Zero and you're looking at the results. Didn't get anything out of this, but to be fair I'm listening in a context that doesn't suit it (eagerly awaiting a new Greatest Album every day). Dunno why it's on the list though. On the bright side it didn't distract me from my admin!
Every person I know who loves Aphex Twin suffers from crippling migraines. These two things may not be unrelated.
aem... okay(?)
Is this like the background music for The Sims or something? I'm going to get medieval on someone if this fucks up my Spotify algorithm.
Yes aphex twin
Yawn
Oh no, not some more fucking electronica. Have I not suffered enough listening to this garbage already? With an album title like that, I am not optimistic of the contents of this record. Apparently everyone sweats Richard D. James (and this record in particular) because, as the name suggests, this is a subset of music he wrote between 1985 and 1992, meaning the earlier songs would have been written when he was 14 years old. Ok, that's cool, but it's not like he wrote a fucking symphony at that age. He pushed some buttons and spliced soundbytes together. Anyways, on to the record. As I thought, this is the dullest, most bland elevator music imaginable overlaid with a strong drum beat. I will give Aphex Twin props, at least it has a beat, unlike some other electronica I've listened to on this generator. So, one can infer that, at 14 Richard was smarter than some of these "artists" in this genre, so good for him!! The spacey sounds that most of these strung out bastards seem to enjoy are alive and well on this record. Green Calx sounds like aliens who are involved in a gun fight with all the laser noises and boops and beeps. This shit lulls you into a trance. As background music it gets a pass, but to sit and focus on this would be almost impossible. 9 minute songs where they establish a beat, then nothing else happens, just repeat the same beat loop 500 times and call that a song. Awful. I wish I knew why electronica artists as a group decided to make their shitty records over an hour long. I don't want to listen to this shit for 10 minutes, let alone an hour. Listening to gorilla's bang would be audibly better than this album. Favourite songs: Pulsewidth Least favourite songs: Hedphelym.... Probably others as well, but it all ran together into a boring mess that I've already forgotten about. 1/5
This is noise.
Wtf is this shit
👎
An hour and thirteen minutes of background music. Why are there so many electronica albums in this experiment
p679. 1992. 1.5 stars Background synth music. Well done but instantly forgettable, and it really outstays its welcome. Someone whistle me a tune from any of the 74 tedious minutes. Anyone? No, thought not.
Not for me
More insufferable electronica trash
Terrible music, I don’t like it. Makes me unrestless…
Dang, 2 ambient albums in a row. Just not for me. Was so bored throughout. Just felt like an hour of a video game on a pause menu.
Not my type
Pioneering at the time - not really my thing today, kinda boring. Good bg music.
This is the kind of music you can put in the background of a slide show or an animation.
not for me.
I’m not a fan of electronic music at all so it all just sounds the same after 10 minutes. Maybe for people who are into the genre might enjoy it but definitely not for me.
I just couldn't get into this at all. No tune, just a beat with sounds. It was hard to distinguish one track from another.
DNF Just sounds man... kinda calming tho
This was dumb. I mean, kudos for doing this before GarageBand came out and made it so much easier - but I just can't bring myself to care.
No.
Volgens mij zijn ze vergeten een selectie te maken. Het eerste nummer duurde al 7 jaar.
