Aphex Twin is the reference point and yardstick by which modern electronic music is judged, his Selected Ambient Works 85-92 is a masterpiece of minimal electronic sublimity, every synth line and thin, reverbed percussion hit unwasted, profound, a coloring, subtle, yet willfully intense, combining to form a sonic landscape of utter profundity. His mastery and astuteness in manipulating electronic signals into musical artistry is inspirational.
