Artist: Aphex Twin
Album: Richard D. James Album / Windowlicker
Released: 1996
Genre: IDM/ Electronic
Aphex Twin, along with other 90s artists from the Warp label, were the front runners of modern electronic music. The height of Euro House and Trance music birthed IDM (intelligent dance music) - music with not-so-dancy drums and aimed for listenability rather than danceability. The most renown artist from this era is probably Aphex Twin. With the Richard D James Album, he begins to show his twisted sense of humor which is later magnified by his EPs, Come to Daddy and Windowlicker. With the success of his music, he bought a tank and a submarine.
SO GOOD.
