Aphex Twin is like the god of electronic music to me, so I’m not surprised that a musician with such a good taste as Björk sees him as a king, even if it’s always a pleasure to hear it :)

[@crustycarhartt]

Autechre is far better imo. Autechre was pushing the boundaries of experimental poly beats in a way that Aphex Twin could only dream of! Aphex Twin certainly got more attention, but I'll never forget when MTV played a video from Autechre! Autechre got less attention because the music doesn't always follow typical styles or structures. Lots of people recognized Autechre as the pinnacle of Electronica in the mid 90s. It still stands as an example of Electronicas best artists over 20 years later! Don't sleep on Autechre. Their collection is quite large, and full of gems.

[@crustycarhartt]

@@mbrackeva I think calling Aphex Twin a god makes my statements completely on point. I even started by saying it's my opinion. You don't have to agree with my opinion, but calling my opinion a competition is meant to silence me. I'm not surprised a bunch of fans would get upset at the notion that there are better artists in the same genre. Aphex Twin is good, but I'll always disagree with calling him a "god", and you can't stop me from saying it.

[@EvgeniiNeumerzhitckii]

I liked both Aphex Twin and Bjork so much in the 90s, I never realized Bjork was actually into Aphex Twin herself. Maybe he influenced her art.

[@randomdudelife]

she used to date tricky and was engaged to goldie (around this time) so i'm sure she knew and was inspired by all these greats in the scene

Richard made it as a joke to sorta make fun of "Bad ass" electronic artists like Prodigy.

[@juliangrant9718]

@@djgiga2 I can't be the first one to point out how silly it is to make something out of spite inspired by someone else's work and end up making something that looks and feels more authentic and genuine than the way they didn't want their work to be viewed as. Is that the result of accurate imitation or did he accidentally become the king of that genre and era? Everytime someone would say there's Prodigy... but there's Aphex Twin! That definitely backfired because I always thought they were way edgier than Prodigy. Aphex Twin were well apart of that late 90s "edge."

[@djgiga2]

@@juliangrant9718 Yea you can tell I mean its completely over top. Aphex definitely didn't become king on accident. Some of his stuff is dark, but there's also lots of really silly stuff too or beautiful melodies. He doesn't take himself as seriously I guess that's the point.

[@juliangrant9718]

@@djgiga2 I wouldn't even say The Prodigy took himself too seriously either. I would call that just fun music not trying to make any points. Anyone who found it to be too serious I think were hatin a bit. I can see the British clash on those two groups at that specific time. Even I had Fat of the Land at like 11 years old from my parents for Christmas. It was huge. I understand there might be some criticisms when some of those songs got so much overexposure. I don't know. It sounds like a bit of cope that his video was successful for all the reasons he's making fun of. Look at every mix album from that era that featured Matrixesque metal club sounds. Right next to their songs you'd see a song by Rob Zombie, Ministry, and Fear Factory. He was exactly who he was making fun of

[@Thegbear]

[@orbitaloutcast9878]

This made me jerk a tear, like she seems so passionately enthralled by Aphex's work at that point of time. Always feels nice to see someone else giving the recognition a fellow artist deserves. Godspeed to Chris Cunningham btw he was a real juggernaut for some of Aphex's campaigns.

[@BootyHole_Brown]

In my opinion Cunninghams videos are what really carried this and windowlicker to the moon they just compliment each other so well. even rubber johnny was an amazingly twisted work of art.

Saw Aphex Twin at an early earthcore rave in the bush in Victoria in the mid-90’s, his deck was set up on a card table under a canvas tent and it was all running off of a generator with extension leads running everywhere.

[@ilgattofantasma4886]

Aphex e Björk. Due artisti chr non tutti capiscono e quindi li ritengono semplciemente inquietanti. Chi li capisce veramente vede un mondo oltre quel "inquientante". Ho avuto un periodo dove mi ero fissato con le canzoni di Bjork e sono contento di com'è cresciuta la sua musica da quando era giovane fino ad adesso, così come da poco sto iniziando a capire anche l'arte di Aphex. L'ho conosciuto perché C418 ha detto che si è ispirato soprattutto ad Aphex. Da Minecraft ad Aphex è un'attività ahahah. Adoro sia quella pazza di Björk che quel pazzo di Aphex. Il bello è che appena capisci che quei due pazzi in realtà non sono pazzi, ti senti tu più pazzo di loro due messi insieme... ommioddio... e se creassero un componimento insieme... si! LO VOGLIO!
