1 Comment on “Aphex Twin – Xylem Tube EP cover”
Thank you, Nathan.
It’s not clear to me if Nicholson made an actual font back in 1992, or if the cover showed (digital) lettering. His comment make it sound as if there was indeed a typeface, but that it wasn’t used at all. His Aphex Twin logotype that appears on the sleeve is obviously similar in style, but doesn’t match the typeface, at least not the 2015 version. Likewise, I haven’t found out if the remastered Xylem is available now, and if so, from where. The Number 3 website is under construction.
A.I. Fallet of the Arcana Foundry released a font named Xylem Arcana which is based on Nicholson’s work, see below. I’d be surprised if it was authorized.
