I think he influenced some sounds and beats on the Outkast album Stankonia.

in what way does missy elliot's latest effort sound as if it is influenced by the aphex twin?
i'm not sure how familiar you are with the works of missy elliot, but i'm gonna have to disagree with you on that one.
i think that all aphex twin's stuff is so incredibly diverse that it would be difficult to suggest that a particular song is influenced by him.

po{e} - and there was me, after all the other stuff that you have written on this site, thinking that you were infact the no.1 fan of westlife.
i think that perhaps YOU are the one who needs to get a life and please do start with an attempt at getting a better attitude and stop slagging off anyone who doesn't fit into your totally anally retentive, pseudo perfect, aphex twin fan stereotype.

I think the majority of every question asked on this board is worth a million unspoken sweet nothings. Its obvious pop music influenced Aphex and not the other way around.

would any of you say that rdj has influenced radiohead? i've heard thom yorke and him are actually good friends and there might have been a collaboration on "idioteque" from kid a, though i don't know how likely that is.

sort of, yeah, listening to it right now, i can see/hear idioteque in windowlicker.
idioteque is, um, lemme think, track 8. you know, the depressing radiohead song (depressing radiohead song -- hell you say).

yeah, i think that thom yorke is influenced by the aphex twin and a whole load of other shit.
on of my mates (who isn't always reliable) said he heard thom yorke on the radio saying that one of his all time favourite tracks was an aphex twin tune.
my friend did not care to note down what tune it was, but please forgive him as he has no arms.

Ok Computer is actually really good too, althoguh not very electronic. Climbing up the walls is very creepy.
Pyramid song sounds very grand. Very very very. Very very very very very very very very very very.

You know, "very" and "hunting" are two of those words that sound really stupid if you say it out loud several times.

Hell yeah Radiohead are definitly influenced by Aphex, as well as Autechre and Charles Mingus, well those were all mentioned on an interview. There are probably listening to other that they found on the Warp label. It all depends what mood your in but I don't think that AFX is the best guy on the warp label, especially afer Windowlicker came out. Tortoise have surpassed that.
But yeah trying to get back on subject, if you ever read any more commercial stuff like NME you may have noticed an issue all about influencial artists. AFX came in 5th or something. Not that that says it all, it's probably not true either. If musicians want influences they are going to have to look more underground though coz otherwise they will get drawn into a commercial black whole. Once musicians start getting lazy like U2, their stuff sounds like drivel, didn't used to be like that, they had a difference. Now I have heard all of their songs and probably future songs to come, coz they are all the fucken same!!! Maybe slightly overgeneralised and I coulkd be wrong but that is what it looks like.
I was just about to finish typing when good friend Alex shouted down the stairs: apparently I should be reccomending an album called Brain Dance. Never heard it. A compilation aparently, presumably named after the term "intelligent dance music" (AFX). Oh I don't know what I am talking about, forgot waht I started off saying!
Fuck it, goota go pack my bag.

yeah i think i read that too.... the thing is that afx still sort of SOUNDS underground (to me he seems to be getting even weirder..i mean lots of his old stuff was nice and good tunes and that but not really weird), but since hes incredibly popular....does that mean he's pop? i mean after all pop music is just popular music... i dont really consider afx as underground anymore. i think the mp3.com/ampcast artist are about as underground as you can get! (with the exception of me of course coz i write electro! hhahaa) sorry bout that just my little 2 cents worth.....
but i still reckon itd be pretty wired to view afx as the new face of boytbands everywhere. lol AccapellaFX

rubbish john: well i think missy elliot's crazy beats and rythms sound aphex-like. or perhaps more warp in general. but you're right, i'm not too familiar with her other works.

missy elleiot's latest effort is (i think) is typical of her style of hip-hop - hardcore, 'in yer face' hip-hop.
