There's a new Aphex Twin interview in the April/May 2001 issue of Index Magazine. Never heard of this mag before, but I was browsing the mags at Kim's in NY when the words "Aphex Twin" jumped out at me. Some lush photos of RDJ facial hair (etc.) for those who like photos and such. One of my favorite parts of the interview: RDJ: "I've gotten really good at finding stuff on MP3. I've met loads of people who have their own files up, and if their tracks are interesting, I'll wrtie them and ask for a demo. Most of them don't believe it's me. The last guy said, 'I'm flattered you like my music, but if you wanted a free CD why didn't you just ask?' I was like, 'No really, I am me!' We had this whole exchange where I tried to convince him of who I was. It was like a _Twilight Zone_ episode." ...he goes on to make some interesting, if short, comments about copyright music, his music making methods, the heat in his house and trying to keep "Come To Daddy" from getting to popular when it was released.
