to be part of the select group of humans who knew aphex twin was cool before aphex twin was cool? |

i dunno i came in around summer 2001 a few months before drukqs came out which i still consider "the new aphex twin album" so i've always felt like a newshit who only joined after it was already over |

1994 through mtv for me, late to the party for a brit but pretty ahead of time (and mindblown) compared to my group |

I think the best thing he ever did was that stupid NFT, a real Boomer move. |

i joined the cult with come to daddy after reading about the video in nme or melody maker or some shit |

i got into aphex when i saw come to daddy on muchmusic (canadian mtv) on a show called the wedge, same episode had other cunningham mvs like portishead, bjork, squarepusher, this was late 90s and changed everything for me, before that the electronica id heard was mortal kombat soundtrack, fat of the land and some older moby like everything is wrong. i used a friends computer in 2001 to download shitloads of aphex on kazaa, and used aphextwin.nu to get familiar with warp records stuff. was there when drukqs came out and joined the hype. found xltronic in 2002-2003 and now its 2026. |

to echo darius, i felt like a newfag cause everyone here had already experienced the early to mid 90s aphex and while i feel deeply nostalgic for it, i was late to the party for that material. tho in hindsight, all the people that jumped on the aphex wagon after syro i feel like an oldfag now. |

i guess because everyone is sharing their stories, my introduction to aphex twin was the track 'at the heart of it all' off of nin's further down the spiral album. i believe i would have been in middle school, putting this somewhere in the mid 90s. some years later i found you cretins. |

Same here somehow. I've heard the new album will be called "I care because you do". |

I think it was later than 94, I got in the bandwagon with come to daddy as well and I just read it came out in fall 97, wasn't in Egypt at the time and I left for compulsory service in winter 98. I do remember recording mtv music videos on vhs at a younger age though |
