Forget the pretenders except the Warpers, the other so called contenders are now totally in no mans land.
Aphex the only genius of our time..

Crunch's album 1 is genius and is not on warp. It's on musik aus strom or something. As for that show who's the boss, it's one of my least favorite all time shows.

People use the word GENIUS far too quickly nowadays, and Aphex is truly only worthy of that title
A genius is usually observed for years and his/hers levels of consistency in brilliance.
Crunch cannot even come in Aphex batting range .

I am 1000% with you Raphael,RDJ is trully a Genious in terms of music.Also,he was the one who opened the door for such artits as Squarepusher,Baby Ford,U-ziq and Cylob among others,with his excellent Rephlex label.So,admit it,he is the real deal here.He can make a lot of artists sound like shit.I am still expecting his new Drukqs release,wich I know it is going to be an excellent one,of course,RDJ style,some ambient,some drill-n-bass and some experimental.That is the thing I really like most of RDJ.He will not play the same thing over the whole record,like most commercial crap artist do......Can't wait for Drukqs.......I really need my dose right away........

The only thing Aphex Twin is would be closest to a chameleon. Hes a copycat at best, w/ no original concepts to bring to the table. He feeds off his talented friends for ideas, and works fairly efficiently that way. But a genious he is not. He just improvises what others do a bit better than the originators did themselves. I'll give the little gerbal that much. Fuck Drukqs, corperate Warp handmedown shit album. If I wanted to hear Hangable Auto Bulb Id listen to it. If I want to hear Samariua Math Beats I'll put it on. Fuck Aphex Twin

"Hes a copycat at best, w/ no original concepts to bring to the table. He feeds off his talented friends for ideas, and works fairly efficiently that way."
5=6 you are incorrect here, do your homework because it pisses me off. hes said many times he does not like listening to other music because he does not want a direction to work in, be it subconsious or otherwise. do you think he calls up squarepusher 'ey mate! tell me what to do!'. just because squarepusher is on warp does not mean he and aphex are buddy buddy for music.

Actually Dead Redundance, he used to room w/ Jenkinson for some time and RDJ Album is drenched w/ >[] influence. The chaotic so-called drill n bass trax are Pushers to own and raise and call his own ect. Luke Vibert got Richard into D&B/Jungle in the first place and one can see Vibertish style D&B on HABI and II. Drukqs leaches Bogdan Rakzynkis style for a couple of rollcoaster rides. Im sorry for being so mean earlier. I hadnt medicated yet but now Im much calmer.

besides genius is only for brains not talent, isnt it? (im ASKING this as im not sure...fuck im middle of the road)

Raphael, your first step was to show that the word genius was subjective and your second step was to shower aphex twin with that word as if it was a fact and not your opinion. You and your moronic spelling bee champion side kick, vampire angel, can have a bubble bath together with your rubber ducks in the feces of aphex twin and later dry off with your power puff girl towels. Meanwhile I'll be enjoying Crunch, material composed with a microscope and cilia too move bits around.

And afterwards you can cuddle together on the couch whilst watching who's the boss, and complain that I used "too" when clearly the proper word was "to".

I love having a name that people have to copy and paste. Especially while being such an important person whose name is used SO frequently.
