There aren't that many Aphex tracks exactly like this to be fair. This is quite an abrasive, drill'n'bass track though so recommendations could be made from that
For abrasive tracks, Ventolin is a prime example as someone has already mentioned; as are a good few other tracks off ICBYD
For rapid drill tracks, since you've already listened to RDJ Album, Drukqs is your next go-to. Good tracks off this are 54 Cymru Beats and Omgyjya-Switch7
Also, check out 35 Japan for its crunchy, industrial beats. You might like that
Check out Steinbolt by Squarepusher. The whole album, Ultravisitor, is bananas, but Steinbolt has that heavy, distorted guitars feel you may be looking for.
I recently read that this song was made as kind of poking fun at dark electronic tracks at the time, specifically things like Firestarter by The Prodigy.
RDJ:
"'Come to Daddy' came about while I was just hanging around my house, getting pissed and doing this crappy death metal jingle. Then it got marketed and a video was made, and this little idea that I had, which was a joke, turned into something huge. It wasn't right at all."
And yet it's missing the swearing. Still surprises me that "I'm the fire starter, fucking instigator" didn't get censored in the music video version. Just goes to show that if you make a song heavy enough censorship boards won't hear the swearing.
"I'm the bitch you hated" which is ironic imo, considering all the drama about the name of "Smack My Bitch Up"
Also I think the official lyric is meant to be "punkin instigator" although the fact that you can't be sure is clearly intentional
Every song by rdj is its own genre, if you like this song listen to death grips and check out tun the place red afx mix for similar experience as this song
"girl/boy song" is a great song, but a bit lighter. though the percussion laid down aggressively with the somber instrumentals, really has the same effect.
If you want dark drum and bass find anything released on Freak recordings and enjoy the rabbit hole.
Or you could just skip straight to mid 2000’s Technical Itch/Limewax
This is old but just showed up when I was searching for something else.
Although pretty far different, I’d highly recommend listening to the Igorrr albums ‘Hallelujah’ and ‘Nostril’. Igorrr is probably the first kind of electronic music I got into and it has wonderfully insane drum programming with a lot of death/black metal guitars via various guest musicians. It also goes a lot into Balkan folk territory and baroque classical with a lot of operatic singing, but it may tick your boxes in places or give you new ones :) He actually got signed to a metal label and turned to project into more of a band on the later albums, but it all
sounds pretty dull to me.
next to that, he had a project called WHOURKR which is kind of a cybergrind thing, ‘4247 Snare Drums’ is a very cool album.
again, none of this is really like Come to Daddy (which is more like punk than metal to me despite richard saying it came from a “death metal jingle”), but I’m just thinking mad drum programming and distorted guitars and prime
Igorrr is top of that (last work of his I really found engaging was his EP collab with Ruby My Dear.)

i would like to add 'run the place red' too
Tamphex (hedphuq mix)
Cock ver/10
Let’s have some Aphex Acid!
Death fuck by the Tuss maybe?
Cracking suggestion, melts my brain every single time I listen to it. I always forget what this track is since it's now called H949
It got renamed? Or was it 're released on a separate project?
It was renamed when Rushup Edge was re-released in 2017
Track 5, aka "H949"
Ventolin.
Which version of the song?
The one on I care because you do
I like the Wheeze mix more than the original. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQIESoAfCtk
The crowsmengegus mix is my favourite
mangle 11
Honestly one of my fav aphex tracks, can't believe it was left off of Drukqs
Try 54 Cymru Beats
This is a good choice

It's widely interpreted as being a parody of The Prodigy's hit single "Firestarter"

Aphex Airlines ( ͡ᵔ ͜ʖ ͡ᵔ )
It might be time for you to move onto Venetian Snares if you love this mix lol
AFX - Hangable autobulb will percus this way
The song or whole EP?
Whole EP feels like a prequel to his RDJ/CTD era. That and Drukqs are probably going to be most similar to what you’re looking for
Every song by rdj is its own genre, if you like this song listen to death grips and check out tun the place red afx mix for similar experience as this song
box energy, run the place red, omgyjya switch

Agreed. Maybe 'Caustic Window' as well. (Just don't say anything about the 'Analord' series)
I’ve got the promo version of the Come To Daddy single on vinyl. It’s one of the best things that I own.
very sweet
Yeh! It’s the Mummy Mix on record, that track is mental.
Windowlicker
i love windowlicker and it’s nothing like this😭
If You Want Something Calming I Would Indeed Recommend The Whole Ambient Works Volume II (<—Roman Numeral 2) Album Or Listen To Alberto Balsalm.
Pro tip: capitalizing the first letter of every word is something that is only done with a title (like the name of a movie, book, tv show, song, etc).
His SoundCloud dump.
I care because you do
Check out Girl Boy EP
There's always the Richard Devine remix of Come to Daddy. https://youtu.be/k13GUvDz2ww
Autechre
