Aphex Twin – Selected Ambient Works Volume II (Disc 1)
Not really a record you wanna dig out every day. But like most of the records I’ve chosen here, this was an object in my collection that needed to be thrown away and replaced, meaning I made adequate use of it. I can never remember what this record sounds like until I put it on. I didn’t know there was a second disc, because someone had left the first disc in my player and that was that. While I gravitate towards AFX’s melodic side (‘Rhubarb’ is definitive) this record is about mystery meat. Sinister, heavy murk.
