    Any fans out there? I think his most accomplished album is his self-titled Richard D. James. Also check out his Windowlicker EP, the title song is amazing. Also has anyone see him play live? I can't imagine what it would be like.

    I saw him live in 2000 at the Lowlands festival in the Netherlands and I don't remember one bit of it. He has some cool stuff, Come to daddy is one of my favourites. I don't know all his albums though. That windowlickersleeve is classic!:[​IMG]

    For some reason no one seems to like Drukqs. I love that album, along with the Selected ambient works... but that's all I've heard.

    I've liked almost everything I've heard of them, definitely one of my favorite electronica producers.

    I am a fan. Some of his work I love. Some annoys me. Talented artist nevertheless. His albums are never far from my CD player.

    Oh yeah, that's a great album. Most of his stuff is a little too strange for me, but that album is golden. :p

    Dear God. The man's insane, but brilliant. I love his stuff, especially this one remix of a David Bowie song, that was crazy.

    He's great alright :)

    Some of his singles are well worth buying too. I picked up 4 from the Warp Records site not too long ago - The price was around the £10 mark and there's easily an hour's worth of music.

    "Selected Ambient Works 85-92" is marvellous stuff, but I think the "Come To Daddy" EP has to be my favourite.

    Chosen Lords is probably my favourite album so far. Why's he AFX now? Something about a drug company sueing him for Aphex or so I hear?
