if you like the video check out "Salad Fingers" which is a cartoon made by the guy who did this video. its awesome ( and sick! )!! he's called david firth.
IDM has a really distinct sound but has also got a really wide range of what it can and can not do.. artists like the aphex twin could come with an all accordion album and it would be IDM, look at guys like Bogdan Razcinsky.. it goes a bit further then a 'drilling' snare drum i guess. sorry for bad english or something
I remember the first time I heard his music, about four years ago. I still get the same blissful feeling I did the very first time I heard Richard's music to this day.
my favorite aphex twin song, and one of his most accessible to be honest. And same thing with the whole Richard D. James Album, which is my favorite. SAW II coming in a close second.
I read an interview years ago where Richard said he was in his tank with his dad, looking around, showing him something, having some conversation about his tank - so it was him and his dad - no kidding!
Ooo thats a funny noise.I like those fast bits. haha anyone who listens to more than one album of aphex twin would probably understand that randomness i just put lol. Anyway, i like that little tune at the end when there trashing the gear :) is that just on this song, or has it got its own, coz its nice little tune?? lol

its funny cos I found out about aphex twin by watching animations made by david firth (that was about three years ago), the end credits often showed his (aphex's) name among the music used
back then, I had't been paying much attention to that; only a few months ago I looked up rdj's music, remembering the awkward atmosphere of Firth's anims... and became an instant fan
drukqs is a very very good cd. i would start with that one. i think that cd was inspired greatly by NIN's 1999 release called the fragile. I would consider it some of his most organic and experimental sounding work.
David Firth videos to Aphex Twin make my eyes water.
I absolutely love them.
