Directed by Ryan Wyer, age 12, of Rush, County Dublin (so says the YouTube info section for the new video matching the audi of Aphex Twin’s “CIRKLON3 [ Колхозная mix ]”).
It’s a whole lot to process, really. Aphex Twin hasn’t released an official visual in nearly two decades, and for the hot new take, the artist (née Richard D. James) tapped a 12-year-old YouTube gamer (who wasn’t even born the last time Aphex showed us a new video) to helm the direction for the track’s viewable asset.
The song comes off of Aphex Twin’s forthcoming Cheetah EP that will see release July 8 via Warp.
In the meantime, wiggle along to Ryan Wyer’s work… which is a whole load of “add filter” sequences of the youngster dancing with family, wearing Aphex Twin masks and comes complete with scrolling end credits. Simple and superb.
