Personal Quote:

[on his music being used in advertising] They always use my stuff on programmes about surgery, or rapists, or paedophilia, or murder, or war... which is better than it being used on some cooking or DIY programme, I suppose! See more »

Trivia:

His brother's grave is featured on the cover of the "Girl/Boy" EP and in the booklet in the "Richard D. James Album" both released under the name Aphex Twin in 1996 See more »
