Oh come on now, Mr. Music Trivia! Are you saying that you didn't know that Richard James is just a front man, and that Stock Aitken Waterman is the group responsible for all of the Aphex Twin's music? For proof, listen to the third minute of "Digideroo" and you can clearly hear Rick Astley singing in the background (with load of reverb and chorus, of course). Simalarly, "On" features some backwards vocals that are outtakes from Dead or Alive's "You Spin Me Round".
