I have listened to nothing but Richard D. James this week and wondered which is your Fav?

I don't suppose many people will have heard the more obscure ones so I guess that Aphex Twin will win but don't just vote Aphex Twin without thinking. Some of them are incredibly rare and impossible to find.

Examples of works:
Aphex Twin: Richard D. James Album, Come to Daddy, Drukqs, Analord Series.
AFX: Analogue Bubblebath series, Hangable Auto Bulb, Classics.
Caustic Window: Joyrex EP's, Caustic Window Compilation.
Polygon Window: Surfing on Sine Waves, Quoth.
Power-Pill: Pac-Man EP.
Bradley Strider: Bradley's Robot.
Q-Chastic: Q-Chastic

I voted AFX because of the Analogue Bubblebath(FAV) series and Hangable Auto Bulb. They are so complex and different to anything else ever made by anyone.

I like myself some Aphex Twin.  Did you hear Dillinger Escape Plan's cover of Come to Daddy with Mike Patton?  Pretty good.

Polygon Window - 'Surfing on Sine Waves' is a great album. One of the best things RDJ has done.
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

The Richard D. James Album (Come to Daddy double EPsecond)  is my favorite so, Aphex Twin.
Over land and under ashes
In the sunlight, see - it flashes
Find a fly and eat his eye
But don't believe in me
Don't believe in me
Don't believe in me

Selected Ambient Works - '85 - '92 (Aphex Twin) is a special album for me. It's like Eno doing minimilist techno. Some of the tracks date back to when he was in his teens, made in his bedroom, using home made synths and tape loops. It's a dark album, and sounds very rough and ready.

It evokes memories of a, rather wayward, but fun time in my life.
