I'm a quite erratic person: From setups to actually when I'm doing a track, it's just turning and switching and changing all the time.

More quotes by Aphex Twin
There's a lot of melancholy in my tracks.
Aphex Twin
Sometimes I just hit the keyboard in a way I'd like the rhythm of the tracks to sound.
Aphex Twin
The holy grail for a music fan is to hear music from another planet, which has not been influenced by us whatsoever. Or, even better, from lots of different planets. The closest we got to that was before the Internet, when people didn't know of each other's existence. Now, that doesn't really happen.
Aphex Twin
Can't really despise people you don't know.
Aphex Twin
It always sounds more right to me when it's detuned. When it's right in tune, it's like there's something slightly off. But at the end of the day, it's all about frequencies and what they do to you. That's the real core.

I'm just some irritating, lying, ginger kid from Cornwall who should have been locked up in some youth detention centre. I just managed to escape and blag it into music.
Aphex Twin
I'm a really good hacker, but I'm not a sensible person.
Aphex Twin
The best musicians or sound-artists are people who never considered themselves to be artists or musicians.
Aphex Twin
If you hear a C-major chord with an equal temperament, you've heard it a million times before and your brain accepts it. But if you hear a chord that you've never heard before, you're like, huh.
Aphex Twin
My filing system's really crap because I can never decide whether to sort things by studio, or year, or where I lived.
Aphex Twin
The best artists are people who don't consider themselves artists, and the people who do are usually the most pretentious and annoying. They've got their priorities wrong. They're just doing it to be artists rather than because they want to do it.
Aphex Twin
It sounds really arrogant, but my music's my favourite music ever. I prefer it to anyone else's.
Aphex Twin
You change all the time. Everything changes you.
Aphex Twin
The holy grail for a music fan, I think, is to hear music from another planet, which has not been influenced by us whatsoever.
Aphex Twin
Well, I just bought a massive bank and I've moved into it on my own.
Aphex Twin
it's more interesting for me to stick things out anonymously. You get more of an honest reaction to what you've done.
Aphex Twin
I got a feeling I had loads when I was in primary school, 'cause I had red hair you know, like Duracell.
Aphex Twin
In Britain, it's good for me to be anonymous, because they just think it's a nobody. Who is this guy?
Aphex Twin
It's only interesting when you're from somewhere else, like America or Japan. The further away the more interesting it is.
Aphex Twin
You're brainwashed in the West with equal temperament, so it's quite hard for people who like following rules to get outside of that and see what you can do. But for me it's easy because I don't work like that. I work intuitively.
