CSflim, Firestarter is nothing like CTD...plus it only predates CTD by 3 months.

Hey, don't get me wrong, I love Aphex Twin, but I think that pointing to Come to Daddy as an example of his originality is a bit off.
Aphex Twin is an incredible innovator in electronic music and those tracks you mention are a far better example of that.
I could imagine many negative things being said about the Twin, but to say he is unoriginal and chliched is just plain....wrong!
