Track:
The Aphex Twin, Richard D. James, builds his own instruments digitally by transforming sampled sound and by manipulating the guts of synthesizers as he discovers what his next composition is going to be. The man is very playful. When I hear a new Aphex track, I'm frequently disoriented and then laugh when I recognize the new place he's discovered to take us. It seems to be a matter of pride to not retake old trips.I can only guess what he's doing and what the source of his sounds was, but his kit for "Nannou" seems to include music box chimes, ratchet tools, combs, the windup keys for spring tensioned devices.
