About half way through my first mushroom trip ever, me and 2 other good buddies walked over by to this guy's apartment we all knew. He was down with psychs and drugs so it was good vibes.
He put on Windowlicker... the first Aphex song I've ever heard.... while in the middle of my first trip ever.
That shit blew my fucking mind out [in a good way]
is right!

The Windowlicker is especially strange.
If you run it through a spectrograph there is a spiral at the end of the EP. And Track #2 "Equation" people call it,but the name is actually an equation written out, has Richard D. James face. Here is the spectrograph readout from "Equation"

first, it's not a they, it's a him... Richard D James.... besides Aphex Twin, he's also done projects as AFX, Caustic Window, Polygon Window, and other aliases... His works are extensive, I'd start with a wiki.... Also, consider it your civic duty to listen to everything on Warp Records (Autechre, Squarepusher, and Boards of Canada to start you off)...
-------------------- Everything is better than it was the last time. I'm good. If we could look into each others hearts, and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care. It takes a lot of courage to go out there and radiate your essence. I know you scared, you should ask us if we scared too. If you was there, and we just knew you cared too.

I tried listening to Incunabula or whatever by Autechre and hated the shit out of it
It was released a long time ago so they might be better now but

The tracks on the selected ambient work albums are pulled from his great unreleased track stockpile. But he does have some good ambient bits scattered around on his other albums, like this one:

Yeah, it's a tough one to listen to.
Track down the Tri Repetae++ release. It's a great album and EP bundled together. As a kid I considered it the best drug music ever. Especially for disassociatives. Machine music with an intensely human soul...

I don't know if this one has been thrown out yet but listen to this. If you don't know Aphex Twin you wouldn't know it was him unless someone told you. Very different than what people would think.
Very beautiful melody.
