I remember it: It was the didgeridoo track when it cames out in 92. I was total in shock, but after more than 10 years it is still my fav. |

Saw Come to Daddy on MTV at a time when I was supremely disinterested in music. Got the CTD EP for Christmas from my sister a month later and then started buying up all the Aphex and Rephlex stuff I could. |

"then started buying up all the Aphex and Rephlex stuff I could. " VERY WELL DONE MATE !! |

Well, it feels great tho! :) |

the first time i heard afx was when he played me that lovely piano tune on his mums piano, he must have been like 12 or 13 at the time..... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no seriously, the first time i remember hearing afx was the windowlicker vid when i was in year7 which was in 1997. i know thats impossible but for a funny reason i have a strong memory that i saw it back then. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i thought i was the only one seeing windowlicker in 1997 :( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i saw windowlicker, loved it. a friend brought come to daddy e.p. one day and i fell in love with this crazy stuff. its just like waking up i mainly listened to hippie/hiphop and zappa/jazz at that time. Bucephalus bouncing balls was together with flim the best music for me back then. about a month later i had all his music from napster and liked about half of it. i hated techno at that time but this got a change cause i loved drumand bass and jungle and i found that aphex acid/hardcore had great combinations. by now i own much vinyl by him |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
first time i heard afx was when i had a chicken byriani and the next morning my chafed sphincter exploded in a clarion call of tremelo tones. parrrrrrp it went, and so drill'n'bass was invented |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
first time i heard afx was QUOTE on the radio in '90/91 i think, a few weeks later i bought it from a friend of mine by accident. and still love it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
first afx track that I listened to (and instantly liked): Fucking l33t immense masterpiece |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i wish id heard digeridoo when i was younger, but the sad truth is the first afx i heard was windowlicker on the radio a few years back. then i bought drukqs, discovered rephlex,etc. im only 18, so its a bit of an excuse. id hate to be like 30 and only just get into afx, all those years missed. i wish i was into it in 96, so many great tunes that year, from lots of artists. i was in the last year of primary school then, so bit too young for raves! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
dunno about QUOTE, but have you heard QUOTH? :P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
:) yeah i know i can't type, thanks for reminding me |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's impossible. you must be mistaken it for the Come To Daddy video |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
who knows. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
dave_g i'm the same as you |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
but i do remember seeing windowlicker or a video that looks similar to it in 1997 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
first time I heard Aphex Twin was around 97,I had Girl/boy on a techno cd,I didn't particualy like it either.Then around the same time On was constantly playing on MTV,I always remeber hating the vid,thinking it was a shite song. |
||||||||

TonePu5her: what do you think of it now? |

Well, the first time would have been when I downloaded digeridoo and powerpill pacman, according to my computer, it says 1/18/2002 at 4:22pm for digeridoo. Those songs weren't really my thing, so I left it alone for a while, but later that year my friend picked up the come to daddy EP at a pawn shop for a dollar or something and that's when it started... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
my first track was "milkman" at 1996 just when it came out, one of my buddies came over with a compilation he made, it was on.. |
||||||||
|
|

|

my 1sst afx experience wass when i bought 'this is techno' in 95 or 96. It wass a 3rd dissc set, the lasst being a mix CD. On the ssecond dissc wass a track by Aphex Twin (name which i had heard of previoussly) called 'Digeridoo'. I liked the track, but at that time i wass mosstly into Prodigy and Chemical Brothers sso i didn't really try to disscover more about thiss myssteriouss mussician. My intresst didn't start until I read an isssue of an icelandic mussic paper called 'Undirtónar'. there wass a review of the new Aphex Twin releasse 'Come To Daddy'. It wass such an extremely possitive review (the reviewer iss a big aphex twin fan) that i wass urging to hear it. Sso when my birthday wass coming up a while later in '97, i assked my ex-girlfriend if sshe could buy me 'Come To Daddy' for a birthday pressent. thiss mini-album/ep wass the mosst important mussic disscovery of my life. |

my first experience with aphex twins music was seeying that first video of him (that one on the beach),.yeah y'all better know what I mean or I'mma pimpslap ya ,.'cause I forgot the name,......but uhh,.dunno exactly what year but it was on partyzone on mtv |

I know I saw the Windowlicker at some point, but I was busy with something else at the time, so it didn't catch my attention. I saw - the date for this given by Taco is November 2000, which I think is when I saw it - and it got me interested first in Aphex Twin, then in electronic music in general, which I hated before then because all I knew was the crappy smurf techno etc. that I am very embarrassed to admit I liked when I was about ten. ("the one on the beach" is On, I think, but I've only seen it once, so I'm not sure) |

fuck! i'm old... 30 september 1972 |

i can't remember the very first time i heard him, but the first time i took notice would've been right around the time drukqs came out... i had just bought my mixer... and my friend brought drukqs along... tracks like Vordhosbn, and 54 cymru beats haven't aged a day since then... which reminds me of the only time i've ever puked while high on marijuana... shortly after the first time i heard Aphex, hearing Vordhosbn and the piecing, sickly synth lines rattled my head quite badly... bleh |
||||||||

|
|
i am not 100% sure, but i remember that i've heard girl/boy song on some bulgarian mtv alternative compilation in 96. then i've bought RDJ album on pirated tape in the winter of 97. but more big thing for me was when i 've heard ae for the first time, tri repetae in 98 also on tape/walkman, walking around with that mess in my head. |

on MTV's AMP, back in 1997. i saw the "On" video. i didn't like it too much though. when i saw Come To Daddy later that year, things really took off.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the first track I heard was Digeridoo at a rave early 1992... Techno music in general was very new to me at that time, but Digeridoo totally tore my brains out and Richard has been my favourite artist ever since... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
First time I heard RDJ was "Girl/Boy Song" on the MTV AMP compilation CD. |
||||||||
|

|
The time I downloaded 9 seconds of Donkey Rhubarb in 1997. What a trip it has been since then. |
