Aphex Twin - Windowlicker 12” Single Vinyl Record
"Windowlicker", the hit song by electronic musician Aphex Twin, first released on 22 March 1999 as a single by Warp Records. The title track for this Single release peaked at number 16 on the UK Singles Chart, and was later voted by fans as Warp Records' most popular song for its 2009 Warp20 compilation. Pitchfork included the song at number 12 on their list Top 200 Tracks of the 90s.
Quite unlike anything else he's ever done, "Windowlicker" is perhaps the most accessible and dancefloor-friendly track Richard D James has ever created. A simple, gurgling riff paired with childishly sung vocals and thrown over straight-up 4/4 beats, groaning and developing, the bizarre sonics straining to burst through the shackles of form and expectation. "Formula" provides unexpected blasts of sound, lengthy breaks, explosive aspirates - it seems to escape and transcend this very plane of existence. "Nannou" is a chilling lullaby, minor-key themes that evoke thoughts of traditional melodies while percussion seemingly made out of household trappings ground it in the everyday.
The series of symbols and equations, simply put: "Formula", is the second track featured in Aphex Twin’s single, Windowlicker, and features an easter egg during the final portion of the song if you were to play the track through a spectogram, revealing a distorted self-portrait of Richard D. James (Aphex Twin). "Nannou" the final track on the flip side is a pensive slice of music box IDM. Both of this tracks are added gems that make this single release something to behold!
