We love RDJ, but what does he love?

Well I'll start of with this live performance, i know some of the songs aren't made by him but he apparently likes them a lot since he plays them.

One of the songs that he played in the video above, Killer track!

So what kind of music does RDJ love as his own personal taste and what does he usually play out dj'ing?

he's played burial and zomby which is pretty cool. skream too, but that was a fairly zomby-sounding track. don't get the feeling he's a skream fan, just that one track. (2-D)

Only thing I can think of is he said he loves Luke Vibert's music, and that he said he buys loads of cds from Amazon, burns the cds to his computer, deletes the tracks he doesn't like, then sells the cds to some shop, and that he even has it so some guy comes around and collects them for him. IS THIS ALL A LIE

how come he sells the cds to a shop? is that even possible?

they could be very rare or he knows the store's guy, but other than that, i see no possibility of that happening.

At age 17, Richard D. James mentioned these influences: "Phonic Boy, Computer World, Mental Telepathy, Industrial Inc., Tomita, Tangerine Dream". Mixmaster Morris mentions on the "I Luv AFX" BBC Radio 1 Breezeblock session that James's preferred moniker while working as a DJ in Cornwall was Phonic Boy on Dope. More recently, he has said that he gets inspiration from "everyday sounds that can be emulated/reconstructed electronically, quality techno, especially from Europe, which overshadows the current hardcore pop crap." When asked about what is next for electronic music, he said "acid-techno, ambient-techno." Avant-garde music has been an influence on James, including artists such as Kraftwerk, Can, Tangerine Dream, Tod Dockstader, Xenakis, Piero Umiliani, Bernard Parmegiani, Karlheinz Stockhausen,[29] John Cage, and the French composer Erik Satie for his piano works and his ideas for furniture music.

In acknowledgment of another influence, James released Music from the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, a compilation of music recorded by the pioneers of BBC Radiophonic Workshop, which included artists such as Delia Derbyshire,[30] on his own label, Rephlex Records.

 

He also love to play Current Value , Rhythm is Rhythm, Altern8, Hellfish & Producer etc.

he said in a couple of interviews that he had no influences or used to listen to music, but it was all part of his usual joking attitude, i am sure.

it's impossible to be an artist, especially a musician like richard and have no earlier influences at all.
