I read enough interviews on him from 91-94. I just don't care to learn anymore about him. It's kind of sad if people STILL try and learn all there is to know about him. Who the fuck cares anymore? >Hence many people avoid talking about aphex because >of that fierce "been there, done that" attitude. I normally would not respond to a Aphex thread because for the most part I really am not that interested in talking about him. I just happened to in this case because I am slightly interested in checking out the Windowlicker video because i like what Chris Cunningham did for Come to Daddy and Autechre's video. But I totally agreed with what you were saying so i did post. I rather talk about people like Optical than Aphex Twin. At least he is still pushing boundaries versus silliness _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!? Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com
