...I Care Because You Do is a studio album by the electronic music artist and producer Aphex Twin. It was released on 24 April 1995 through Warp. Containing material recorded between 1990 and 1994, the album marked James's return to a percussive sound following the largely beatless Selected Ambient Works Volume II (1994), and pairs abrasive rhythms with symphonic and ambient elements. The cover artwork is a self-portrait by James.
Richard D. James Album is an eponymous studio album by the electronic music artist and producer Aphex Twin. It was released on 4 November 1996 through Warp Records. It was composed by James on his Macintosh computer, and took longer to complete than his previous albums. It features fast breakbeats and intricate drum programming which draw from jungle and drum and bass. James' drum loops are paired with lush string arrangements, intricate time signatures, and ambient melodies reminiscent of his earlier work, as well as modulated vocals from James.
Geogaddi is the second studio album by Scottish electronic music duo Boards of Canada. It was originally released on 8 February 2002 in Japan by Vivid and in Europe ten days later by Warp Records. It was recorded between 1999 and 2001 at Hexagon Sun, their Pentland Hills studio. The album is intended to be darker in tone than their debut studio album Music Has the Right to Children, released in 1998. The album contains references to the Branch Davidians and numerology throughout its composition.
"Windowlicker" is a track by the British electronic music artist and producer Aphex Twin. It was released on 22 March 1999 through Warp Records.

Selected Ambient Works Volume II is the second studio album by the British electronic music artist and producer Aphex Twin. It was released on 7 March 1994 through Warp Records. Billed as a follow-up to James' debut Selected Ambient Works 85–92, the album differs in sound by being largely beatless ambient music. James said that it was inspired by lucid dreaming, and likened the music to "standing in a power station on acid."
Drukqs is a studio album by the electronic music artist and producer Aphex Twin. It was released in October 2001 through Warp Records.
