He is using his music to craft himself-- image manipulation. And Richard is referencing A-ha's hit "Take On Me", which is self explanatory. Boyfriend is referencing BROTHER like TWIN, cuz he is friends with himself also, so he is also his own twin. And Teaspoon- DO YOU SEEE?!!!?!?!- is referencing Uri Geller's spoon bending, because Ricahrd wants to craft his own image but also BEND YOUR MIND. DO YOU SEEE?!?!?!!!

Aphex_Squarepusher_Twin Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 (edited) No AFX is abreviation of Aphex pronouncing AFAIK... A pH ex ---> A for Acid ; pH is a measure of the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution. He had never heard of Aural Exciter™ before to release several albums. He is the last person who would give the name of a brand of equipment manufactured by someone else while he was building his own synthesizers at thirteen years old... "Twin" comes from the fact that he had a stillborn brother with the same name Richard James... you also can see it in the girl/boy ep cover representing a tombstone, is dedicated to the memory of the older brother of AFX...
