In 2023, we saw Aphex Twin come back from a 4 year long break with a crazy tour, 4 new EPs, an ARG, and so much more. In this video, I parse through everything that’s happened this year and explain it all while giving my thoughts.
There are several segments of this video that contain flashing lights and images. If you have photosensitive epilepsy, then proceed with caution when watching this video.
