Drukqs

Drukqs (sometimes styled as drukQs) is a studio album by the British electronic music artist and producer Aphex Twin. It was released on 22 October 2001, through Warp Records. It is a double album that includes a variety of contrasting styles, from meticulously programmed beats inspired by jungle and drum and bass, to classical-style, prepared piano, ambient, and electroacoustic pieces. It features the piano composition "Avril 14th", one of James's best known recordings.

James released Drukqs to pre-empt a potential leak after he accidentally left an MP3 player containing his music on a plane. It was intended to be his final release with Warp, in accordance with his label contract. The record entered the Dance Albums Chart at No. 1, remaining in the top 10 for five weeks, and entered at No. 22 on the Albums Chart. It received polarised reviews from critics: many dismissed it, focusing on its perceived lack of innovation and similarity to James's previous works, while others praised it as an accomplished work.
