Lyrics

I'm taking control of the drum machine

Other than "Sport" by Lightnin’ Rod, "You’ll Like It Too" by Funkadelic, and "Unwind Yourself" Marva Whitney, this track also samples "Soul" by S.O.U.L. Lorna and Derek James are Aphex Twin’s parents. Heard on the track “Lornaderek”. Sarah and Vicky are potentially Richard’s siblings. No solid evidence anywhere as it was never stated directly by him but there must be a reason the names are in the line. The lyrics “Tu prends le contrôle de la boîte à rythme“ translate to “You’re taking control of the drum machine” in French. View wiki
