god damn it, I'm a real dubstep fan, not one of that new generation of brosteppas and skrillex fans, and I hate seeing comments about dubstep in an AFX video. when you listen to aphex twin you forget about all other kinds of music it's just disrespectful to richard because he's a god alike artist !
Listen I work at the biggest electronic club in Dallas--I was looking for a real answer to my question, can u grow up for a second and answer my question for real..... Just explain to me why you like this music.
@kge33bc I've learned from experience that people don't grow up and answer civilised questions about music like this. They make stupid childish comments and eventually insult your mother. At least, that's what happened to me in similar circumstances. I think that says everything, really. It certainly answered my question. I hope you have better luck, but I wouldn't bank on it.
@kge33bc Because some people who like the genre actually appreciate the time and effort put into making these syncopated pieces of music. Trust me, this is always harder to create and ultimately more interesting to the non-average viewer/listener than Electro House or Club music or something. Everyone's got tastes. Some peoples' tastes are more geared towards the actual production of the song and not the final result.
TL;DR We like it because we appreciate its musical production.
Cute... kids talking about drugs here... If you have been in the drugcrazed lifestyle you dont brag about it on youtube... trust me. Cant we just enjoy music as it is. this tune is fucking crazy!

ps. if you do enjoy something do it safe and rather something natural. like herbs ;)
@kge33bc Though I absolutely love Aphex Twin (my favorite living musician) I really cannot say why I like breakcore and IDM. The first thing that drew me to breakcore was the "jackhammer" drums, it was unlike anything I had heard before. Beyond that I don't know. If you're interested I'd suggest listening to Venetian Snares "Frictional Nevada", it's a pretty good representation of the genre in my opinion.
@kge33bc For me, it's the interesting layering of sounds and the weird ways it effects time, I think that's the biggest element that sets it apart from other listening experiences.
I've never got why Aphex Twin is so popular. It sounds just like any other DUNKA-DUNKA DUNKA-DUNKA techno/trance to me. The music doesn't go anywhere, it just sits there and expects you to "get it".
There's good synth music out there, Plaid immediately comes to mind.
@Hibryd7 Plaid is really good. The thing about Aphex Twin, though, is that this isn't all he is. He is very broad. I love love love Aphex Twin but not necessarily this aggressive side. Is this all you have heard from him?
@Hibryd7 Well let me explain.....Aphex is one of the pioneers of the EDM, if he wasen't for him, we wouldn't be having dnb, dubstep, breakbeats and many others sub-genres.
Also you got it all wrong, his music (as well as most of the music from that time) is not meant to be "gotten" or "understood", it was meant to be felt. And the only way you could really feel that music is by listening to it very very loud at some party like the one on the video.
@Hibryd7 You have to remember that when Aphex started playing tracks, nothing like this had been heard before. It's like complaining about how Black Sabbath is lame metal music. They seem like that now compared to Death and Nevermore, but look at the time when they first started playing.
@kunstssst well, in all fairness...if it weren't for aphex twin, we wouldn't have complex d&b, which we wouldn't have dubstep. so in all, it came from the same source.
This is from end of 2008... Hence the infamous 'gurners'...he again played WP the end of this year. RDJ, had his hair chopped around 08, but I think he's growing it again.
Love when he punches the air at the start.. He's usually very inanimate, so this was a plus! Good vid.. Thx for posting };-
