I started my electronic career with Massive Attacks No Protection, Björks debut & Trickys Maxinquaye. I was about 14 or 15 back then. A little later I bought Hard Normal Daddy cause the cover was odd and that got me into that whole warp thing. |

Umm... it was in school once, someone was tapping there pen on the table in a very Autechre like manor... It blew me away! :O |

Umm...heh. Aphex Twin started it all for me. Yes, I was a big fan of Nine Inch Nails. I owned Further Down the Spiral. I really liked the two tracks by RDJ. It didn't really go any farther than that, though. I was talking to my sister's boyfriend, and he said that I'd like Aphex Twin, and I was like okay. Then he sent me lots of Aphex Twin songs. Then one day I was looking at the information of the tracks on Further Down the Spiral and it said At the Heart of it All and The Beauty of Being Numb were made by Aphex Twin and I was like..."amazing." Yea. |

I got Come To Daddy. I have always been into alternative music tho, anything odd I was into. Come To Daddy was an impulse buy after recognizing his name from 'Further Down The Spiral' I then got the RDJ album. I also impulse bought Hard Normal Daddy expecting some retro raver oddity and thought it was fucking shit when I first heard it. I came back to it after I got my head around the RDJ album. So it was kinda thru my interest in Industrial (that I don't have now) and rave. There you go. :> |

mhtrtc (1998) drukqs (2001) I ve explained this in some other thread summing up: I bought boc and I liked it, but never worried about who they where or the label.... so it was like an island .... but then drukqs really got me into idm and all this crazyness |

My first contact was with seeing Aphex Twin's On and Ventolin videos on MTV's Chillout Zone around 1995. I didn't actually start acquiring any until 2000, when a girl called Pascale arrived at a party with a CD full of IDM mp3s and changed my musical world forever ;) |
||||||||

|
|
ventolin maxi single, cd was gone, went back inside and got ath elast copy |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
My first was when a mate of mine from Edinburgh brought a copy of Incunabula to my house back sometime '96. Hundreds of pounds later... bigger cd collection. ;) |

when i was purely into metal/rock music, and my opinions of electronic music had been severly tainted by the crap that was in the charts/on the radio/on tv... a friend forced me to listen to inculabula for which i am forever in his debt |
||||||||

I was watching AMP(an electronica showcase that used to come on during the early hours of the morning on MTV) when all of a sudden I see this dog pissing on a televison. I think you all know what video Im referring to. |

When my best mate started saying about some Windowlicker video being fucked up and great. I was hooked from there really. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
After Kid A came out, I read a review about how Thom was listening to Aphex Twin, so I downloaded Windowlicker and was unimpressed for a few days, then I downloaded a bunch of other tracks (from I Care Because You Do in particular) and loved it. This was all on Napster, with a 56k modem. It took me a long time after hearing Aphex Twin to bother getting into other IDM, though, like late 2001. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It was after Napster appeared on the net....I started downloading & downloading....I wasnt intrested in music before. |

Well, it was in school. A friend of mine had brought a tape and decided to play it. What I heard was the most aggro and weird shit of this world (Come To daddy, pappy mix), but somehow I felt that I wanted to explore more. At a time there, I was almost afraid of playing that tune. ^_^ So when I got home I downloaded a couple of tunes (Ophex-style, Napster, modem), and after hearing Girl/Boy I was stuck. Then BoC, then a little Autechre, than a little this, and a little that. |

i'd just started college and a girl from cornwall had SAW1 with her. It spread like a particularly happy virus round the halls and dominated heavily until the Suede debut came out. |

I was cycling home at night, when suddenly a bright light started following me, closed in on me, and finally I was bathing in white light.... When I regained consciousness, I was lying on a table, with headphones on. The sounds I heard were odd, as were the aliens surrounding the table... |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Hehe ! I used to hate all this records at first. It always took me lot of time und weed to get it. |

first serious exposure to IDM was during an affair about 8 years ago... we'd make love to FSOL lifeforms... |
||||||||
|

My Friend randomly bought SAW2 after hearing it I started buying all of RDJ's music which eventually led to squarepusher and ae...and so on |
