No way. RDJ is the king and no one come close to his ability and talent.

For someone to ask this kind of question hurts my soul.
But nonetheless, Vanilla Ice is still the champ or electronic music.

I like Aphex Twin but even []pusher. I heard that squarepusher use often guitars and aphex use often the piano.
I like both.

I think it's more of a seesawing pendulum kinda dealie goin on between the two..each raising the stakes with their release, invogorating the other to surpass...but that's only the level of complexity of the songs...on other accounts they are vastly different..Jenkinson's tunes no matter how warped and mutated has it's roots in conventional/ avant Jazz jako pastoriousis (sp) music...
RDJ makes and breaks his own rules as he goes along... IMHO of coarse...

Well don't get me wrong, i love Squarpusher, but overall you've got to admit that his stuff is a lot less listenable that Aphex. Too much maths involved. He's done about 5 REAL classics to Aphex's 15 or more (argue amongst yourselves)

i thin they are the perfect complement to each other.
sp's music is based on the aestethic of sound... RDJ music is based on goofing around and trying to put a tought or idea into music.

aphex is arguably more diverse (drikqs to saw2 to ventolin to hab)
squarpeusher is more loud music (sometimes afx is too nice to play loud...the string bit etc..hehe)
im more into squarepusher at the moment, but afx has some real classics.
also i reckon they both have some songs which I (meaning ME, not EVERYONE) regard as shit. but I (see def. above) thnink afx has done more bullshit songs.
but I (again) dont know.
i view them as equal.

Either way, I think it'll be exiting - fucken aye what them two will/could conjure up on this whole MEN label.
Just the thought of them two, helping each other on several tracks n shit - that would be really cool n that. Not that they can't do it themselves, but get some amalgamation of some of the crazy jungle vibes n that. Personally I can't get enough of Freeman Hardy - esp. LOUD! :)

lads, lads, lads, lads, lads
my sense of 'i don't need to debate this shit' is over-ridden by my sense of passion for these two artists and how, i hate to admit, they stir a buzz in me that, i've said before, is a bit like how the monolith in 2001:A space Odyssey affected a couple of primitive chaps!
Anyway to me they're both equal but extremely different. They both have an amazing sense of groove and melody that gets ya everytime.
Both produce albums in which, even after a hundred listens, you still hear hihats, basslines, blips and tweeks ya never heard before.
They both take genres and twist 'em perfectly into almost anti-genres, yet never seem corny or cliched.
They simply got what every crappy mtv-freindly artist wants...hosest to goodness fucking talent !!

AE is very fun to listen to. they get the best sounds.

First of all, squarepusher is Influenced by Aphex twin, aphex came first. this does make aphex better in my oppinion. Squarepusher overproduces all his fast tracks with bleeps and shit, hes not as diverse as aphex in styles, his ambient tracks dosnt touch me. He´s an aphex ripoff with a jazz twist.

Oh and,He sounds a lot "Colder" than aphex. the treble is always insaly high in his tracks, with means i´m gradually building up tinitus by listening to him!
I´m not saying hes bad, aphex is just better.

dirtypriest. Read the cover of 'feed me weird things' and note who wrote it and talk to us about influences then. Also, ever read the biographies of these 2 artists? The way they operate is extremely different and personal, just parallel. As for diversity.....from FMWT to GP, i think SP shows a diversity with a consistency for excellence that is equal to AFX. What about live stuff? Totally different operators but the energy output due to their individual passions is awesome..
(i'm a bit of a hardcore fan of SP's by the way!)

21) What is your favourite gadget?
Oh it would have to be this endoscope I got from LOOT a couple of years ago,it had ,had a fair bit of use mind you but its a one off model which can go inside your brain via your nostrils and tickle different regions of your body automatically,its got a USB connection and came bundled with some MAC software,its got a neuro reciever on one bit which can directly pick up various thoughts and signals that happen to be flying around whatever region you happen to be poking,it's so cool man.

it has to be said that if there was no AFX and RDJ..there would have been no SP or Ae..or at least in the shape and form we know and love..
it really isn't worth arguing over
