i've always felt that from aphex twin, most people branch into other areas/artists in idm, but every once in awhile i hear of someone who hasn't heard of aphex but they listen to boards of canada and others like that...is your personal experience the same?

marijuana = aphex milk = carl cox
If you wanna go on with the analogy I started with milk.
autechre = spice ( or whatever it is in dune )

It started with Aphex and ended with aphex
Well Radiohead is still my drug music of choice, but now I'm sharing it with Mr. Aphex, because its both earth shattering great!!

i got into techno gunk like prodigy and crystal method back in 7th grade or so...then in 9th or 10th i saw this wierd video with little children running around with manish features while a tune going "i want you soul, i will eat your soul" played in the background...then in 12th grade my friend said "here, this will hurt you" and bucephalus bouncing ball was my first real intro to idm, got into aphex like a madman, then squarepusher, then autechre, then boc....and the rest is history

Exactly, he does a little bit of every style to get you interested, and then you branch out. A nice ''hub'' for electronic music.
He's WAY more varied than, say, Autechre or BOC. You know exactly what you're gonna get when you put them on.
But nobody here knows what the Drukqs followup is going to sound like, eh?

I bought SAWII sometime in 94' and I was hooked. I needed more. I never found it until I came to Aphextwin.nu and Joyrex.com. Then I found the massive discographies and the afx.nu messageboard. Never before have I found so many good artist recomendation as I have hear. I love this place.
