Aphex Twin’s videos are immortal—once you see them, you’ll never forget them. His story became well-known among electronic intellectuals: a ginger guy from the South of Britain who creates his own keyboards because he isn’t happy with factory presets and has been writing music since he was 13. Aphex despises the term IDM (intelligent dance music). Actually, he gives quite a lot of reasons to talk about him. He gives inexplicable titles to his songs, and he has a lot of them but doesn’t release that much. He taught a computer to write music under his name a long time ago in order to spend more time with his girlfriend in the bushes. People outside the scene said that a sane person couldn’t do such things.
Aphex answered: “Yeah, I experimented for a while but it was long time ago and not for music—it only makes it difficult because you need to concentrate for music.” It was during one of those nights in a club that Aphex met Chris Cunningham. They were both extremely surprised how similar they looked: tall, thin and long-haired. (And who wasn’t thin when he was young or long-haired in the 90s?)
