I was sitting in my Kia Picanto with my 90 year old mum, eating an ice cream, by The Rivet Ouse in Ely, Cambs. A guy walked by wearing an Aphex Twin t-shirt and I wound down the window and greeted him with a point at his shirt. 2022 highlight.

Interestingly it's an example of some of his work where he programmed a midi device to play the notes on a piano via a mechanical device, which is why it sounds both simple and robotic at the same time. Quite innocent in a way. And a lot more complex to produce than otherwise initially thought.

Back in the day I bought this album (druqs) on release day. One of the first things that stood out to me was the mechanical noises Avril 14th. I loved that he put those sounds in there because it makes it more intimate and pure like you are there sitting next to the piano. I didn't realise at the time it was played by a midi controlled machine. Nevertheless, genius piece.

Sending big hugs and thanks from Dublin 🇮🇪 for this brilliant upload 😉👌 ... Richard really is a genius, mellow tracks, melodic bouncy tunes, chaotic ear bleeding belters, and everything in between, he is a master of the lot... From the days of me discovering his music, I think it was while watching MTV Chill Out Zone during my earliest clubbing years (I'll be 49 this year), the years when I happily spent close to all of my wages getting a decent (physical) music collection together, to today, where we can all mostly find whatever music we are searching for in an instant, I still listen to his music more than any other artists I like. Also, what fan can't like an artist who dumps some absolute amazing gems onto Soundcloud for all to enjoy... ❤ 🔊
