What kind of stuff does Richard use on his albums? I\'ve read that he makes his own equipment, but I want to compose music similar to his and I don\'t know how to make electronics work. Anyway, is it possible to make drum and bass, jungle, trance, etc. without a computer and turntables? If so, what do I need?

well, the old group Kraftwerk made their own synthesizers from old electronic organs.
i bet i am the only one here who has heard of them, they are the freking pioneers of idm, without them, there would be no Aphex or other idm.

And yes instead of answering the question you go blabbering on about something else....
I think that you should go buy the nastiest computer you can get your fingers on, and get the following programs
"fruityloops" from www.fruityloops.com
and "cooledit 2000" from www.cooledit.com
fruityloops is pretty cheap to register, and if you can get and old version of cooledit you can register it illegally.
With a little pracise and imagination you can do anything with those programs.
www.hitsquad.com is the next step, if you want more. software synthesizers and stuff like that!
hope this helps you

it is true that afx made his own synthesizers, but he also said that computers today are so powerfull that its simply pointless to go analouqe...
cylob and other rephlex artists feels like this 2!

just buy some analogue equipment and get someone to modify it for you... or just use effects. I have an old Casio CT-470 keyboard with really shitty drum sounds, I put it through distortion and reverb and it sounds like the drums from Acrid Avid Jam Shred and Cow Cud Is A Twin... or you could always go for the soft synths, which most of the time sound cold and hollow (ie. Rebirth's 808 bassdrum needs more bass)
*OR* Just download samples like everyone else... and use FT2

1. do not use fruityloops. it will make you go pow pow pow powpow pow pow. very un-original.
2. do not download samples. record your own from your surroundings and from the tv-set.
3. don´t be afraid of noises. they come in handy. and fancy.
4. spread your songs all over the god damn earth. 5. start as you mean to go on. otherwise, you will sound like shite. and people won´t listen because its shite.

Fruity Loops is very nice, and not so unoriginal. It now supports VST, and you can do just about anything with it. I've stopped using CuBase!
