ive only been listening to him for the last few months after i heard 'on' for some reason. 'on' was so amazing that i delved deeper and was lucky enough to download xtal. ive gone on and got a lot more superb tunes since, but now looking back and listening to these 2 tunes again, i reckon theyre his best. and xtal is probably the greatest tune ever for me. |

I got into Rich via "Come to Daddy" being in the skate video CKY2K. |

NIN further down the spiral did it for me. 'at the heart of it all' was the gateway drug to my aphex addiction. |
||||||||

|
On was one of the first i heard from RDJ, and definitely one of my favorites. |
||||||||

That album's really ace. I ordered it thursday. Hopefully it arrives tomorrow. |

Er, Aphex who? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
a little show on mtv called twelve angry viewers aired the come to daddy video and cemented my curiosity. before that i had heard on and saw vol two but hadn't really looked into them. |

"at the heart of it all" got me into aphex, amazing song. |
||||||||
|

i purchased quote (1st release) and was hooked since then. |

I think the tracks that got me into aphex are "Windowlicker", "Come to daddy" and "Girl/boy song"... Also I loved the windowlicker-video (and liked the come to daddy-video)... Although I didn't listen to aphex before 2000 (I had heard some tracks though) I do remember a quote by a quite famous swedish actress who said she enjoyed listening to aphex twin, cause she liked when "random" things happen in music, when she didn't know what to expect. That made me interested, but that was more than a year before I got into his music. One day I heard a radio-programme about dancemusic, and that particular show was about ambient, and they played "girl/boy song", and I just felt like that track is amazing... Also his music was featured here and there in movies n stuff. So I came across "RDJ Album" and "Come to Daddy" and listened to them a lot... But the first album I bought was of course "Selected Ambient Works"... |

"girl-boy song" is obviously not ambient, but they talked about aphex twin (on the show) as a person who made a big influence on the genre with his (lowquality as the called it) "selected ambient works (1)", and perhaps they played several tracks by him, but what I remember now is listening to "girl/boy song" and being amazed, just before going to bed... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
lowquality = the sound of many tracks on the album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
quite a few people heard 'on' first....ive never heard it :( well i saw the video ages ago but i didnt pay attention to the music and now i cant remember anything about the choons.... |
||||||||

Both the remixes (I mean Reload's and U-Ziq's) are miles better IMHO |

it was drukqs I bought it and liked it so much that I went to search for reviews in the internet... so the first review was like: "this is shit comapred to the previous albums" so I just couldnt understand cos I was loving drukqs and I felt curious about the other albums then that were suposed to be so much better than that, so I bought saw I and I care because you do... and I loved them right away... and meanwhile I kept on searching the net for aphex till I found this place too... and here I am just a year and a half later with 24 original aphex cds at home and totally obesessed about the man and his music, totally ruined too and addicted to this MB |
