track number two on the first disc is my favorite.

Yeah, that was the Windowlicker video.. It was taking the piss out of R&B/Gangsta Rap videos.. as for the monster faced bitches, Chris Cunningham (who made the film) cut and pasted Richard D. James (Aphex Twin)'s face onto the women.. I think that he's just slightly insane.. Check out the video for Come To Daddy for more same-faced madness..

And while we're on the topic of IDM - when the hell are Boards Of Canada going to get around to releasing a new album? I'm quite certain they've finished it..

that exclusive track that warp released was a bit of a

disappointment i found.....some nice bits, but overall

the track kinda sucked.

hopefully the album is dope...

as far as the videos.....some people have such a

low standard for weird or 'insane'....

i thought that shit was pretty chill.

you shouldn't judge stuff before you've heard it. the single is acutally two remixes, one a 808 state song and another one by some early eighties house dj (the name slips me), not orginal aphex twin track (hence the title - two remixies by afx)..

 

also, sire is going to be carrying druqks in the us.

 

there is a new site up - drukqs.net

Aphex Twin.. what can you say.. the man's a living legend.. You can try Warpartists at http://www.warprecords.com and choose the sickly yellow colour for more info..

Basically Drukqs is his first album in 5 or so years... and alot of people are getting really psyched about it..

Oh and I seem to remember Aphex Twin and others were a big influence to Thom Yorke in the run up to Kid A..

http://www.12ozprophet.com/ubb//rolleyes.gif'>i'm still not sure what you're saying....are you trying to big up yourself as a real underground head cuz you listen to aphex and you jock warp all the time???????? or......

just trying to figure out if its coming from the heart or if you're one of those

elitist idm herbs....

i'd be interested in hearing what other stuff you've searched out(besides warp, rephlex, skam and planet mu), if any....

He's the Radiohead singer/front man.. I thought you were an RH fan.. maybe I confused you for another person..

 

brown twinkie - sometimes people find me kind of weird, and I don't really mind... I wasn't trying to big up myself... sometimes I'm unintentionally obscure..

 

basically, Chris Cunnigham has done some videos and record sleeves for The Aphex Twin, and that's most why people think that he's slightly mad.. but maybe it's not Aphex who's weird but the Chris Cunningham, who actually got all the ideas..

oh and I hope I don't come across as an elitist IDM fan.. I think it's from the heart http://www.12ozprophet.com/ubb//smile.gif'>

chris cunnigham has directed a ton of really good videos, my favorite being bjork's 'all is full of love'.

 

all of you that has gnutella or any other type of file sharing service should look up 'flex' by aphex twin. it's a soundtrack that was put to a gallery opening by chris cunningham. really quite interesting.

that video is the best thing i've seen by him easily....dope tune also.

pulk: you're not coming off obscure, maybe vague...and/or...warp and aphex is hardly obsure either if thats what you're hinting at......i'm well read when it comes to these guys as well, its all opinion, but i've never found either of them 'weird'.....childish maybe..........
