Whatever, man. I got into Aphex Twin from the "Richard D. James" album and as I scoured through the back catalog in search of similar sounds, I was sorely disappointed. Analogue Bubblebath? S.A.W.? Cool but I could care less if I ever heard 'em again. Who will be the next smarty techno godfather to be torn down by the IDM mafia? Paradinas, Jeffs, or Jenkinson? The gunsights are all on you so you better make records that sound exactly the same as your first demos or you are done for.
