About This Song
About "Wax The Nip" by Aphex Twin
A title that sounds like a command to a strange pet. The music is a slippery, funk-tinged oddity, its bassline a rubbery, elastic thing that squirms through a haze of off-kilter percussion. The tension is between a seductive, almost danceable groove and a pervasive sense of awkward, alien weirdness.
