Aphex Twin



Artist
: Aphex Twin
Album: Windowlicker
Year: 1999
Description:"Windowlicker" comprises three tracks, each in a different musical style. The title track consists of Richard's voice modulated on computer, mixed with his trademark breakbeat snare rushes, drum samples, and mixed choir-like singing, resulting in a smooth yet erratic song, its last minute escalating into an extremely distorted wall of bass. The rare Roland MKS 80 synthesizer is also apparent just as it was on Come To Daddy. Also included is a sample of James's French then-girlfriend speaking in her native tongue (saying J'aime faire des craquottes à mon chien, translating [literally] to "I like to make craquottes to my dog", [interpretation] "I like to have sex with my dog", where craquotte is literally a sort of small, horizontally sliced, dry cracking bread, but as a second degree can be interpreted as something cute or sweet). The song could be interpreted as a parody of over-sexualized commercial hip-hop and dance music.
