Must have Aphex Twin tracks?

My boy played me a CD and I just need more, what are some must have tracks from these guys?

Aphex Twin is one person- the legendary Richard D James. Try Selected Ambient Works.

The Analord series, still being released ATM I believe

Get "Come To Daddy" mini album - a good intro to Aphex Twin. It's got some melodic tracks like flim and IZ-US plus some more experimental type tracks with a more aggressive sound like come to daddy and boucephalous(sp!) bouncing ball.

Aphex Twin - Hangable Auto Bulb EP

the others that have been mentioned are mostly fuckin great aswell.
try and find the "classics" album

there are a few of bootlegs, unreleases, rare albums to find aswell. lots of releases under different aliases. try out Mike & Rich - Expert Knob Twiddlers, a collab with mike paradinas aka Mu-Ziq/�-Ziq. also try and find the Universal Indicator releases. the man is sooo prolific, its hard to keep up with everything he has put out, whether that be official or unoffical releases. the man is a electronic god, at least to my ears.

for further reference about afx, read this faq: http://rdj.moto-coda.org/faq/afxfaq26.txt

its REALLY dated (from 2000) but still has great info about r.d.j.

Essential Aphex tracks that have not been mentioned yet:

On
Start As You Mean To Go On
Ventol In ( )
Come On You Slags!
Blue Calx
Shottkey 7th Path
Xepha
73-Yips
Wax The Nip
Powerpill ( )

By the way, I wouldn't bother asking what the track names mean. Most of the time he just throws some random letters together, from what I hear.

Isopropanol

Outside
Flim
Mt. Saint Michel + St. Michaels Mount

Some of my favorite Aphex Twin tunes.

Not to forget the most depressive headfuck album: "Drukqs"

And at the moment, the guy experiments with teh acid sounds in the Analord series. {I don't like those as much as his previous works}

O by the way, there's some great samples in my sig... Try those ones first
