Aphex Twin's new music video won't air after failing epilepsy test

The video was scheduled to premiere on Adult Swim

After a series of cryptic Aphex Twin logos began to appear in London, Turin, New York, Tokyo and Los Angeles last week, Warp Records has announced a new EP from the seminal IDM producer, titled 'Collapse'.

A music video premiere for Aphex Twin's forthcoming EP, which was scheduled to air on Adult Swim later tonight (August 6), has been pulled from the network's schedule after the video failed the Harding test - a trial designed to determine whether or not a video might trigger individuals with photosensitive epilepsy.

The news was confirmed by Adult Swim's Creative Director Jason DeMarco, who announced the cancelation via Twitter. The music video will now premiere online. Details regarding when and where the video upload will occur are still unknown.

Richard David James (aka Aphex Twin) has made mind-blowing music under a whole host of different names. Check out some of our favourites here.
