        I can easily imagine the body without a head. But also think he looks good in those breasts.

          very very very very very very very very very good. Plus, Nannou is one of my many other favourite Aphex tunes, so all good. You can see the seeds of Druks in Track B1.

                AWESOME TRACK!! ~what can I say, it's Aphex Twin, ahead of his time as always! Perfectly glitched-out before there was 'glitch'.. and the video is shockingly funny/crazy as well. The second track on the B side, 'Nannou' is amazing also!! ..very intricate yet simple.

                  This crazy-wierd-break windowlicker ep came to us almost 10 years ago(when i was a little children)result: he changed my entire sense of listen!
                  Ten years later i can still ear this song like it was the first time! that almost doesn't happen with other songs, because u get really bored listening again and again as the years go by...
                  This guy is a genious!
                  He as a special manner to combine elements like no one else can.. the proof is that in the 90's he did songs that some people still say today that are ahead of our time.. are they stupids? or is it really true? i think both!

                    Yes, yes, mr. Twin into the hit parade! Unbelievable! And it works too!
                    Off course experimental stuff can be dancable and have hitpotential. Why not?
                    And another reason why this 12" is brilliant is for the track "nannou": an electronic take on a childrens wind-up musicbox. Complete with an extra wind up in the middle.
                    Extremely creative!

                      An example par excellent for Richard D. James' extrovertedness which is sure the reason to present Pop & Rock music in an unconventional way. Experimental Electronica, I don’t know another term for it.
