Hello guys, I'm an Aphex Twin fan from Budapest. I'm only listening to this kind of music since last summer, but I'm really into it since then. I have several Aphex CDs like SAW85-92, SAWII, Come To Daddy, RDJ Album, I Care Because You Do (ICBYD), Classics and some singles (Ventolin 1-2, On 1-2, The Mike Flowers Pop meets The Aphex Twin: The Freebase Connection, Girl/Boy EP). This music kicks major ass! I really would like to hear Mr. James live in concert. Anyway, is there any live material available in stores? (official or bootleg...?) I've also found about some video material: Come To Viddy, 3lux3. Does any of you know any info on these items? Are there any other video stuffs? (not only official ones, but I mean stuffs from TV, interviews, live footage, etcetc.) I really would like to get video stuffs about Aphex Twin, is there anybody who could help me? I remember there was a festival concert broadcasted on a german channel ZDF and it had Aphex Twin. I remember it clearly. It was last january, a year ago. Any input on this one? I knew about Aphex Twin that time, I've heard The Waxen Pith on a hungarian underground radio show 'Das Labor' on Radio Fix. I really liked it. I was totally nervous because of my exams (I'm a student here in Budapest.) and this song had a very positive influence on me. Then I've read about that festival. I wanted to record it from TV at my friend's, but I could not. Then last summer I went to a fine underground store called Underground (hehehe) and listened to ICBYD. WOW, I thought, I must buy this. So did I, and have bought the RDJ Album, too. That was a really good decision. Sorry, if I wrote too much... I'm just very happy to join this mailing list. Cool Aphex-time to everyone. The MooKid was speaking... Ending Transmission

Yesterday I finally got my copy of Come To Viddy. I know I'm late but, wow, this rules! My 17-year old sister, who liked RDJalbum, suddenly didn't like mr. James anymore, and my dad said it was the ugliest thing he'd ever seen. I suddenly think Come to Daddy isn't such a bad song. ------------------------------------------------------- Mathias Verraes ET.phone.home@ThePentagon.com Aequalitas haud parit bellum -------------------------------------------------------

>Anyway, could you tell me what videos Come To Viddy contains?

On & Donkey Rhubarb are two nice songs with nice videos. Come To Daddy is some sick story about children with RDJ's face, who run around breaking things and scaring some old lady and her dog, while some sort of skeleton guy (also with RDJ's face) comes out of a TV to reunite with the children. It sounds pretty stupid the way I describe it, but it's a masterpiece. ------------------------------------------------------- Mathias Verraes ET.phone.home@ThePentagon.com Aequalitas haud parit bellum -------------------------------------------------------
