I remember seeing that pirelli commercial before I got into electronic
music. then when I started getting into aphex, who was the first electronic
act that sparked my interest, I recalled that commercial, and it occurred to
me that the music sounded quite aphexy. my suspicions were later confirmed
by reading some internet fan site; I think it might have been the aphex faq.
anyway, caustic window compilation is still one of fave albums. ;^)
