Aphex Twin, also known as Richard David James, is a pioneering electronic music producer and composer whose innovative and experimental approach to sound has significantly influenced the evolution of electronic music, particularly the IDM genre. Needless to say, his qualifications far exceed those of a wedding DJ; however, over the weekend, he took on that role.
As initially documented on TikTok, Aphex Twin DJ'd at a friend's wedding over the weekend. A video of his performance was posted online (see below), which shows the musician playing in a small room with images projected on a screen in the background. Among the tracks he played was drum and bass producer Jonny L's “The Bells.”
Aphex Twin prepares to celebrate his second studio album from 1994 Selected Environmental Works Volume II with a new box set coming October 4th. Pre-orders for the expanded edition are now available now in progress.
