XLTronic is an online music community, forum, and fan site
primarily centered around electronic music. It originally
started as a fan site dedicated to the music of Aphex Twin
(Richard D. James) and other artists associated with the
Warp Records label. Over time, it expanded its focus to
include a broader range of electronic music genres, artists,
and discussions.

Key Features of XLTronic:

Forums:
The site hosts discussions about music, production
techniques, gear, and artists, with a strong emphasis on IDM
(Intelligent Dance Music) and experimental electronic
genres.
Non-music-related topics, including technology, gaming, and
general chat, are also common.

Community-Driven Content:
Members share playlists, music recommendations, and their
own creations. It has been a hub for aspiring producers and
fans of niche electronic sounds.

Archives and Links:
Over time, it has collected and shared information about
rare Aphex Twin tracks, interviews, and obscure releases,
making it a valuable resource for hardcore fans.

Cultural Impact:
The site became a central online hangout for electronic
music fans in the early 2000s, fostering a sense of
community among its members.
Though its activity has fluctuated over the years, XLTronic
remains an iconic part of the electronic music fan
ecosystem.

This is what AI thinks of this place. I think we save

I asked what s better

Choose XLTronic if you:
Value a more relaxed, old-school vibe.
Are particularly nostalgic for the early internet IDM fan
culture.
Prefer smaller, tight-knit communities.

Choose WATMM if you:
Want an active forum with up-to-date discussions.
Appreciate in-depth analysis and critical conversations.
Are a producer looking for feedback or a broader audience.
Ultimately, "better" depends on your priorities—both have
their strengths and dedicated fans!

Your boredom might actually pay off this time
Good things to come!

And I think you have the Xltronic and the WATMM mixed around
and remixed and recalculated in some fashion, but again,
it’s all relative.

We have things they have things Planet Mu has things.
Music is cool and good.
Now I’m bored.

Mom used to say “boring people get bored, there’s plenty
to do.”

Thanks mom, I love you
I’ll give 20 points to whoever anyone can guess as to who
my mom is on the board, but it will cost you 1 point to
indulge me.

"It sounds like you're referencing a playful or perhaps
long-running joke within the XLTronic community! On forums
like XLTronic, members often create inside jokes, memes, or
nicknames about one another, and "Freqy" being referred to
as a "bald monkey" could be one of those humorous or absurd
exchanges typical of internet communities.

Without context, it's hard to say whether this is a serious
label or just friendly teasing among members. If you're an
XLTronic regular, you probably know how the forum’s sense
of humor works—quirky, random, and often full of surreal
banter. If you want more clarity, you might need to ask the
forum members directly; they'll probably appreciate the
callback to their in-joke! 😄"

I know the origin of the bald monkey, Thad mentioned
something about a bald monkey on the discord server, and
Merms went "are you talking about your mom?"
