Teenage author publishes new Aphex Twin book, 'Every Album, Every Song'

"Every corner of the Aphex Twin's formidable discography is examined in vivid detail"

17-year-old author Beau Waddell has written and published a brand new book recounting the music of Aphex Twin, titled Aphex Twin: Every Album, Every Song.

Exploring the 30-year history of Richard D. James’ music under his Aphex Twin moniker, the track-by-track book dates all the way back to his first ever release in 1991's ‘Analogue Bubblebath’. 

The book’s description reads: "From the well-known to the obscure, the rapid bursts of activity in the 1990s to the so-called hiatus in the 2000s, every corner of the Aphex Twin's formidable discography is examined in vivid detail.”

Every Album, Every Song is said to provide “insightful analysis and an impetus to discover for both new listeners and hardcore fans”, chronicling the visionary genius of Aphex Twin over the decades.

The comprehensive book takes an in-depth look at each of Aphex Twin’s six albums to date, as well as the EPs and singles released by the elusive artist on record labels including R&S and Warp. It also touches on releases put out under secondary aliases such as Caustic Window and Bradley Strider.

Aphex Twin: Every Album, Every Song is part of a series of books from Sonicbond Publishing analysing tracks from popular artists. Previous editions have looked at Brian Eno, Fleetwood Mac, Pink Floyd, and more.

Aphex Twin: Every Album, Every Song is out now via Sonicbond Publishing. Find out more about it here.
