Aphex Twin Takes on Clinton and Trump in Bizarre New Video

By Matthew Strauss.

On December 17, Aphex Twin will play at Houston’s Day for Night festival, marking his first show in the United States in over eight years. Today, he’s shared a bizarre new video to promote the appearance. It features Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump with distorted Aphex faces, and pitched-up voices. It’s made by Weirdcore (who’s done videos for Radiohead, Tame Impala, and more). Watch the video, which is “an approved message from Aphex Twin,” below.
