For those of you who listen to Aphex Twin, i don't know the different classes or how to classify music so i'm just wondering what most of his music would be under.

i know a lot of his shit is ambient, but i don't know if his music is just under techno or electronica or whatever.???

drum n bass innit?!

Why do you want to know anyway?

It's just another form of EDM, don't try and classify all you hear.. It narrows your mind !

My take on... (various mixes planned, updated when I can be arsed)

Electro maybe...

Aphex Twin is noise disguised as "intelligent".

If music can't move me without drugs then it's not worth listening to.

yes and no. some music is designed to be extremely compatible with the use of certain drugs (IDM, GOA etc.). if that says something about its quality is debatable.

So how does the word "intelligent" fit in with "Intelligent Dance Music" (IDM) if it's only meant to be listened on drugs?

it's not, I can appreciate Aphex Twin without
I'm saying if you think it's noise, perhaps you need to have a few joints before you can appreciate the complexity of the guys work
