Aphex Twin wins Grammy

http://pitchfork.com/news/57719-grammy-awards-nominations-announced/

Since it hasn't been raised here yet afaik

Thanks for the heads up! Little Dragon, Deadmau5, Röyksopp and Robyn, and Matt Zo (who?) as compition for best electronica / dance album... I honestly doubt that he'll win, but if he does, nothing will happen anyway. The best thing to come out of this will be that we get something like this again:

What . . . the . . . .

Oh please let AFX win, I want to see Deadmau5 crying in his stupid helmet all night long !

Deadmau5 will win.

I just learnt too much shit going through that list of nominees, more than i can handle at once. Fuck Grammy in the ass.

lol. Pretty kewl, though I bet he won't win.

He's got this.

I may just be a delusional fanboy... but I think he has a shot.. Its a comeback album, critically hailed and hyped to all hell. You never know.

RDJ, what for? Syro? ROTFL. Give it to someone who deserves it. Ae. Or Mark Bell. Or Eduard Khil. But not RDJ.

But however a good reminder for me to listen to Syro a second time maybe. One day. Not sure.

I agree.

But also realise award ceremonies are pointless.

Would be cool to see him accept it and have a random rant though :)

I don't think I've ever liked any record that has won a Grammy apart from when I was a (very young) kid and Thriller. I presume Thriller won a Grammy??? Must of.

Who gives a fuck about a Goddamn Grammy. Indeed.

The people who deserve recognition aren't for these kind of awards. Two seperate worlds, different goals. I'd say Deadmau5 wins this one, based on fame and DJ-status in the US alone.

Aphex is doing good on his mission to 'break into the mainstream' though, it would certainly be a good move in that direction if he wins.

I'm sure of all people RDJ gives the least fucks.. But I do think it would be cool that he (of all people) wins something like this. He simply cranks out whatever he wants when he wants.. . Hes respectably uncompromising (compared to others nominated). Would be cool to see.

I hope he gets on stage and start screaming a la Come to Daddy to the people in there.

I'm not really sure, only thing I know is that it was aired around 2005 and that Chris Cunningham appeared in the same show, so I guess it was about the Rubber Johnny vid?

Yeah that would make sense, it's brilliant!

APHEX TWIN! APHEX TWIN! APHEX TWIN! AY-PHEX-TWIN DOWNOWNOW DANOWNOWNOW!!!

Oh man that's ace lol

The real question is:

If he does turn up, will he wear a suit or some kind of druid robe?

fuck the grammys

I'd rather watch a $5 hooker beat on my big toe with a sledgehammer than win one

no way deadmau5 is gonna win. if he does i will be LIVID and throw a fit on social media.
