Richard D. James, also known as Aphex Twin, released his fourth album in 1996. This album is regarded as his drill 'n' bass masterpiece and is autobiographical in nature. It follows the lineage of his previous digital era album "...I Care Because You Do". The album features playful melodies that are intertwined with aggressive, hyperspeed breakbeats and quasi-jungle rhythms. One of the most memorable tracks from the album is "Girl" / "Boy Song" which uses a self-parodying, macabre image of a grave that has the inscription "Richard James - November 1968" as the sleeve image. The album showcases Richard D. James' expertise in electronically generated audio. He also experiments with more concrete techniques such as sampling, distorting, looping, and the use of human voice, physical instrument
