Being probably the only person in my area who has even heard of Aphex Twin, I seriously underestimated RDJs fanbase. When I first came to this sight, i was expecting to blow the dust off of an unused message board with maby a few posts from 1997 that said "The come to daddy video is confusing..." But instead I found one of the most popular message boards on the net. You should all pat yourselfs on the back for being the most loyal fans i've ever seen. Im sure RDJ himself is proud, and maby even as shocked as I was. Keep up the good work my fellow fans, I salute you... |

Right on. There is NO Aphex fans where I live, absolutely none. I could drive around blaring Come to Daddy and the ONLY person in the city that would know what is was is me. This board is really the only place to get my Aphex fix. And it's a great site, best on the net, I think. Good thing it exists, too, cuz would never have got into this stuff (Aphex or electronic music in general) without it! |

come to think of it, i never knew there would be so many people here either! - freaky! |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
there are a whole bunch of ppl here, but it's still a very small percentage of the non-aphex world |

I live just outside of Rockford, it's an hour or so west of chicago. And this city is nothing but a swarm of Ghetto people (of all races) who always come up to me and say "Yo nig, we funna go smo sum Wee" and if that isent cool, i dont know what is! (That was sarcasim) ... Anyways, if their not ghetto, their damn dirty hicks. And let me tell you, neather of them can understand rdj's music. i feel sorry for there poor aphex deprived souls. |

Cool I hear the B Boy/Hip Hop culture is really strong in france? A friend of mine who is a professional dancer did a routine once to Windowlicker on a dance show. I never saw it but it must have been cool. He aked me if Aphex was an old breakdancer or something cause Windowlicker was such a great song to dance to or something. I laughed!!! |

man im tired?? look at my writing??? |

I think the music is a bit too challenging for most people. They're not used to it(too much pop-radio) We need to educate them. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
dude, fuck education |
||||||||

I don't agree Marlowe, people need to hear AFX at least once before they die |
||||||||

|

Hi ya Din... We're a friendly bunch (on the whole)...).. Welcome aboard... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i don't understand why saying "dude, fuck education" would be indicative of be rap influence |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, exposure for sure. as long as it ain't forced down their throats. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No way they have to discover it for themselves, you know about 2 years ago, I couldnt appricate something like CONFIELD ! It takes some time to develop new listening habits....... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Of course, but you had to hear it once before you could develop an interest in it, didn't you? You didn't go to the recordstore and randomly pick the album without knowing what Autechre sound like did you? I'm sure someone suggested listening to it. |
||||||||

I found out totally for myself, after being ''tipped off'' to it by Radiohead...I did some MAJOR digging around on the internet looking for info on this Aphex guy and similar things, and I remember ending up here and marvelling at the insanity. This was before the place calmed down and settled into the great thing it is now... there were so many fucking trolls! Hilarious stuff, but it had to end. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well actually laserbeak, i have discovered artists by doing just that - going into a record store and using intuition to boy stuff - that's how i found out about DJ Krush (i bought milite - great album), thelonius monk, deftones, dr octagon, a large diversity of styles, by using this process |

The youth nowadays ;) When I was in school everyone listened to gabba(gabber/hardcore techno). It was the last real youthculture I've seen since then... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I thought of a better way to describe the people in my city, everyone here acts like the two guys in the Windowlicker video |

Yo Din, straight up gangsta in this bitch... I mean nice to meet you. I don't think that folks who listen to simple boring pop tunes don't have the ability to listen to dope tunes, they just don't understand why someone would choose to listen to complex music cause they don't know what we get out of it. They have no fath that something might be good even though it's not popular. Why would something so good be so unpopular? They Just aren't interested in trying something outside of what pop culture tells them is pleasing. Poor souls just don't know what they're missing is all! |

Welcome to the board Din. I think you'll find this is a pretty cool place to hang out! |

yeah, this messageboard is a "one off". i couldn't believe my own eyes when i noticed that there were 41 members logged on (yesterday)....is it just me, or isn't that quite a lot for a MB? i haven't seen that many messageboards around, but i really do believe that this one is unique, and one of, if not the best, messageboard on the net! |
