Aphex Twin Remake Projects

Description

This pack contains four Ableton Live projects recreating tracks from Aphex Twin’s Selected Ambient Works 85–92: Ageispolis, Pulsewidth, Xtal, and We Are The Music Makers (also available on YouTube). Three of these were featured in my Aphex Twin article.

The remakes use Arturia Prophet-5 V and DX7 V for all synth parts, and original samples in Xtal and We Are The Music Makers. Decapitator and RC-20 Retro Colour were used on the master channel to recreate the cassette-style distortion of the original album. Drum sounds were built from various sample packs and processed to match the original production.
