Aphex Twin How did you come across Aphex twin?

[Rubin Farr]

i was really into Reload around '93 and saw they remixed On, so bought that upon release and never looked back.

[Guest Pilcat]

i fell in love with Vordhosbn while walking home from school 6 years ago.

my first "taste" was, predictably, the CTD vid which i enjoyed but wasn't amazed by...took some time to sink in.

[Guest inteeliguntdesign]

a friend said idioteque by radiohead sounded a bit like aphex twin. i then looked up who he was talking about.

[Guest hahathhat]

ok, yeah, i'll re-answer because i feel this is a better one:

 

 

mp3s came into existence and i found out about electronic music in a flood, aphex along with boc squarepusher etc. was rad. before that i listened to classic rock and celtic folk. still love both those too.

Some MTV program in the 90s which showed Aphex's "On". Must have been Chill Out Zone I guess. That program shaped my taste in music with clips from Aphex, Orb, Orbital, FSOL, Autechre etc. etc. Too bad it's not on anymore.

who's aphex ?

[perunamuusi]

I'm always interested in the folks who get a taste, don't like it, and then claim to love it later.

 

It also happens to people who are already into aphex. I remember the first time i listened to boxing day, i was like... you know... "quite good". Aphex's like that, the more you listen to it, the more you enjoy it : it took me 2 years of picky listening to enjoy every single of the 42 tracks from the analord series. Only W32.Mydoom.AU@mm and Backdoor.Ranky.S are still making resistance to me.

 

 

 

 

mydoom is the only analord track i never really liked much
