There's an electronic circuit called an "Aphex
Twin"....knowing AFXs love of electronics (he did it at
Kingston Poly), it's more likely he picked it up outta some
electronic mag or book...

Not a lotta people know that..:)..

He does mention his borther a lot around the release of the
RDJ album/Girl/Boy EP...but I've never been 100% convinced
by that story...

The FAQ is just stuff culled from interviews so isn't very
reliable really...

I've seen printed evidence of this Aphex Twin circuit years
ago...so I'm kinda inclinded to believe that (even tho
no-one has mentioned it for ages & ages...think it was
discussed on the old aphextwin mailing list..)

aphex systems makes studio monitors or "speakers" that
richard uses the twin is like a double reference to yes his
older brother (rip) and the speakers like ya know twins
means stereo sound....
