Sorry for the delay in responding this time Mr Dave...

I've never interviewed Squarepusher or Air, but I did Aphex Twin a few times. This would have been around 1992/1993. He was nice guy but a very serious young man. He seemed a bit innocent and not quite of this world. I remember interviewing him once in Hyde Park and when we left the park we tried to hail a black cab, but I noticed he was trying to hail cabs that didn't have their lights on (meaning they weren't available for hire). When I pointed this out to him he said, "Oh, I've often wondered why cabs sometimes have lights on and sometimes don't". I think he'd been living in London for a couple of years by this point and I was astonished he hadn't worked that out yet!!

No problem about the questions. Happy to oblige with answers if I can.
