WATMM gets a mention in The Guardian

Aphex fans clubbed together to buy another copy, raising $67,424 – an endeavour organised on We Are the Music Makers, a message board full of Aphex memes and fan-created art(someone has already made a collapsing gif version of a 3D Aphex logo that has appeared in recent weeks). The numerous Cornish place names across his back catalogue have even been plotted on Google Maps by We Are the Music Makers users: if surfing at Newquay sounds a bit high-octane, you could perhaps indulge in an Aphex road trip on your Cornish summer holiday.

The article also links to the watmm thread for the Collapse gif. I wonder if thats wise.

lol

an aphex road trip? i believe the original aphex twin fan, chris ott, has already done this.

for a second i hoped they would be refering to Roasty's gif

We've made it lads. The big time.

Pity that roasty's gif vanished. Would have made a nice little surprise for the Guardian readers. btw imo message board full of afx memes and fan-created art sounds more like reddit's afx sub. But fuck me I'm partly famous....and important.

You secretly love it, including the wet taste of your fart in your mouth.

I've got a gimp style device which includes tight rubber pants (which I wear) running via a snorkel type tube (which is position directly south of my minging rotten arsehole) to a gas mask (which you wear).

Go on  Gimp. Hoof it up your fucking snout!!

Hmmmm. I can guarantee it'll be love at first smell flol.

I didn't open roasty's gif because I was at work, and it was gone by the time I got home. What was it?

lol

Pop up every now and again. Spout a load of poison.

Why don't you do us all a favour? And fuck off.

If you don't like us we're all cool with that. You won't be missed ya cunt.
