Notes: The next instalment in the Disco Pogo Tribute series is the legendary electronic artist Aphex Twin. This follows the hugely successful Disco Pogo Tribute to Daft Punk. Like Daft Punk, the people behind Disco Pogo have had a long-standing relationship with Richard D. James for over 30 years via their 90s magazine Jockey Slut. The book is edited by Disco Pogo editor Jim Butler and features interviews, essays and features from the best music journalists working today - including contributions from Juno Daily's own Ben Willmott and Matt Anniss. It features an iconic cover portrait of Aphex by seminal photographer Wolfgang Tillmans, plus a huge amount of great photography of Richard since the very beginning from some of the best music photographers in the world. The also features extensive contributions from the designer of Aphex's logo Paul Nicholson - also his onstage dance for his early years - who has opened up his archives to us and also the assistance and support from the label homes of Aphex - Warp, R&S and Rephlex. Aphex fan website Lanner Chronicle is also involved in the book, which is hardback, 250 plus pages and beautifully designed and printed (of course).
