Should you be short on cash, there's an embedded streaming audio player with unlimited access to the entire catalog. It's a good starting point for anybody new to his sound, as it strikes a decent balance between his early '90s ambient output, his later "dancier" output, and his knack for weirdness. It includes a store where fans can buy lossless FLAC and LAME-encoded MP3 versions of albums, EPs, and even myriad side projects recorded under weird aliases (AFX, Polygon Window, The Tuss, etc). A month-long countdown at the official Aphex Twin site concluded on Thursday, and with it came a near-complete collection of James' recording output since 1991. I could go on about James' nerd cred (including his decision to initially announce his 2014 "comeback" record Syro via deep-web links), but his lengthy, diverse, and weird collection of music does the talking-and now there's an easier way than ever to access it. The 46-year-old British musician has spent decades making music with an incredible range of analog and digital synthesizers (more details here), and one of his most impressive albums, Computer Controlled Acoustic Instruments, was made by programming robots to play live instruments to his exact specifications. Many of the greatest electronic musicians also happen to be computer and technology geeks.
