I found out about Aphex Twin when I watched the skate video CKY2K. "Come to Daddy" is in it and the minute I heard it I knew I wanted to learn more about Aphex Twin. I read about Squarepusher in an interview with Thom Yorke of Radiohead a while ago. They asked Thom what he'd been listening to lately and he said "I really love 'Go! Plastic" by Squarepusher, it makes my head spin." So I bought "Go! Plastic" and it did indeed make my head spin. good times |

not sure when I first heard of Aphex Twin. I remember I was amazed by "come to daddy" after seeing the wonderful video. Then I REALLY LOVED the windowlickervideo. After that I picked up some albums. I also remember hearing Tuva Novotny (swedish actress) said she like aphex twin cause she like when unexpected things happened in the music. I heard that before I started listening to aphex, and I guess that made me want to find out more... |

i was walking down the street, and richard came up to me and gave me some of his early demos, i laughed in his face, he invited me over to his bank vault, i decided he was an ok chap we began to eat oreos and popcorn, he thought that i was one of the koolest people he had ever met, he asked me if i wanted to start a crazy record label called rephelx records i told him id think about it, i called him up the next day and decided that would be ok, as long as in the future sometime he would make a song called "windowlicker" and make some kickass afx umbrellas, he agreed he later then started to call me daily and bug me, i was way to busy with www.aphextwin.nu so we parted ways for a while but dont worry, we still hang out everyweekend i love you richard d. james |

I was at the dentist office and I kept hearing this beautiful music in the background, so i asked the dentist what it was and it was saw2.. and i was like 'dayuuummm!' |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
how I came in touch with squarepusher's music: I told to listen to some of my tracks, and when he gave me feedback on them he said my music sounded like squarepusher. I hadn't heard squarepusher at that time, so I figured I'd better check it out... and so I did... |

I remembered his name when I stumbled on to 'classics' in a local recordstore after seeing the 'on' video the night before on MTV partyzone. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
thru that MTV show "the chillout zone", and later thru the "come to daddy" video, the combination of the song and the visuals had me awestruck. still has btw |

I really like that video to. Chris Cunningham knows how to make audio visual... ah he makes great videos anyway. |

MTV's AMP show, baby... miss it like all hell. Didn't know that the NIN Further Down CD was done by RJD / Coil... maybe that's why I always thought it was my fav. NIN CD?? Strange. |

I'm 25 so back in 1992-93 at old "techno rave" shows in Montreal when i was discovering electronic music. D.J.'s have always played him a bit you know. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
When SAW was one of top 100 records of 93 in NME I bought it because I liked the sound of the word ambient and I thought the cover looked cool... |

in seventh grade my i met this crazy japanese kid named nick suda who talked about crazy music called like aphex twin and squarepusher. he was always ranting and raving about "IDM" music so i got on kazaa and downloaded the first aphex track i could find which was vordhosbn. that song completly changed my perspective of music. i remeber vividly listening to that track and thinking it was the coolest song ever and that someday i was gonna make a track as good or better than that. that's basicly when my whole electronic music craze started. |

back when i used to get stoned in my mates garage in about '96 someone put polynomial-c on and it totaly blew my mind, i'd never heard anything like it! got into orbital shortly after. I hated the rdj album when i first heard it but then after getting into squarepusher i rediscovered it, loved braindance ever since! |

a friend let me borrow a copy of icbyd in 1995... i listened to it at night, in the dark, in my renovated basement bedroom. i liked it alot, and made a tape copy of it. some time later, i had read in a magazine a review of rdj album. they gave it much praise, saying it was his best work. i ran right out a bought it. it is still my favorite of all his albums (followed closely by drukqs). squarepusher is a different story. i only started liking his stuff this past year. drukqs kinda helped open that door for me. now i think he's one of the best "idm" artists out there. |
