Despite the small audience, the electronic artist spared no detail, deploying his signature disorienting visuals to accompany his set. Brief clips shared online also show him playing ‘The Bells’ by British drum and bass producer Jonny L.
According to an attendee on TikTok, Aphex Twin â real name Richard David James â had known the groom for years and DJed as a wedding gift.
Elsewhere on the wedding reception lineup was British electronic musician Luke Vibert and a DJ from the London-based record label futureRetro.

It was a different atmosphere to his 2019 Printworks gig, which NMEÂ gave a glowing five-star review, with writer Alex Hoban calling Aphex Twin: “one of the most consummately talented electronic artists on the planet” and the performance “one of the greatest electronic shows on earth.”
In June, Aphex Twin announced the release of an expanded edition of âSelected Ambient Works Volume IIâ.
The reissue of the 1994 album will feature a fold-out poster, sticker sheet and booklet with artwork development sketches by Paul Nicholson. It will come in a hinged oak case and an etched copper plate. Each copy is unique and is made to order.
It will be available as a 4-LP set, a 3-CD set and a deluxe 4-LP box set. The âSelected Ambient Works Volume IIâ 30th anniversary issue is set for release on October 4 via Warp. You can pre-order it here.
Earlier this year, Aphex Twin once again clarified his stance on vaccines, after an old note of his resurfaced that seems to promote conspiracy theories.
A Reddit user recently came across an ID3 tag apparently written by the electronic musician, real name Richard D. James, in 2014. It read: âvaccines are poisonous, mercury, aluminum can+ autism, cancerâ, while also referencing other conspiracies involving 9/11, chemtrails and others.
Responding to the tag, James took to Soundcloud and shed some light on the matter (via Stereogum). âHello, got a few messages regarding some txt I apparently put in an id3 tag,â he began.
âMy thoughts on vaccines for what itâs worth is that Iâm not against them in principle but you should look at them on a case by case basis, see whatâs in them, do your research and decide if itâs right for you or your loved ones, itâs up to the individual whether you have them or not.â
Elsewhere, Aphex Twin released his latest EP âBlackbox Life Recorder 21f / in a room7 F760â back in July last year, his first new music in five years. The EPâs lead track was later included on NMEâs 50 Best Songs of 2023. The EP also spawned its own augmented reality app.
