IDM pioneer whose music ranges from intricate beat constructions to eerie ambient soundscapes.

Biography

As a young boy growing up in Cornwall, England, Richard James made his first music by banging found objects together. Whether he's working under the moniker Aphex Twin, Polygon Window, or AFX, James has continued to experiment with sound in increasingly sophisticated ways. He might be producing eerie ambient soundscapes where very little moves, or brutally beat-crazy dance music, but Aphex Twin remains a fixture on the forefront of electronic music.
