Question: listen to an Aphex track and try to describe how weird your experience with it is, what you think of when you here it.
For example:
-Funny Little Man- When I listen to this track, I see a guy who I know, called Job, dancing and singing the vocals. He's a real funny little man oh yeah!

When I listen to funny little man - my mind wanders and images of ronny corbett fill my head riding a shetland pony dressed only in a pair of cowboy boots.
mmmm please excuse me I must go to the toilet. . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Sorry about that I had some urgent matters to take care of
I also once thought about Bob Hoskins and Paul Daniels. These are also small celebrities.

I remember when I first got the RDJ album listening to it four times in a row, while drawing a page full of abstract, organic forms, like the kind of plants that might grow on another planet. Although I like to think of that album as themes for kids' TV shows that haven't been made yet, so there's more food for thought. Ambient 1 and Polygon Window were inspired by Cornish landscapes, and I can see those when I listen. Ambient 2 is more like colours and textures - orange sand, pale blue rubber, etc.

when i listen to aphex i don't really see things that i can explain. I see weird landscapes made of dull neon lights when i listen to SAW II. When i listen to Windowlicker i see people who are dancing, and melting as well. When i listen to on i see dolpins jumping out of water and doing strange things. I cannot explain it better than that,
It is better when i am stoned cause instead of seeing things i feel things, it is excellent!

when I listen to the more orchestral aphex songs (Schottkey 7th path,ICCT hedral,Shiny Metal Rods,Grass etc..) It conjures images of post apocalyptic wars and the hopelessness of humanity,I'm not a gothic or anything, but that's seriously what I think of when listening to it (if you've ever played chrono trigger you'll know what I mean)

When I heard funny little man, I pictured some cartoonish stuff: a spoiled little kid forcing his odd looking grandfather to dance (come on little funny maaaaaan!)
I hate that song. ICCT Hedral is better and conjures up clearer, but more bizzare images. A strange landscape, at night or in space (I'm not sure which), all sorts of odd stuff in it, some cheesy stuff like melted clocks or optical illusions as all the buildings, and most of the things are bright green and purple.
Start As You Mean To Go On and On makes me see speed up images of racing through beautiful jungles. Same goes for Autechre's Rae, only that looks more ghostly as well as beautiful.

when listening to Arched maid via RDJ i think that i want to cry because im so happy.. or something.. like the most complex beautyful thing in the world that you just cant explain.
i think the same about Every Day, except for the lyrics, wich is
kinda depressing if you think about it but the beauty of all
the hangable auto bulb songs is just perfekt..
(i'm to happy today, do not read what i write)

"Shiny metal rods" is a masterpiece. Listening to it is like standing on the edge of an unbelievably high cliff and being forced to jump off.
