<p class="faq-quote">"<a rel="noopener" href="https://www.turntablelab.com/search?type=article%2Cpage%2Cproduct&q=Aphex+Twin" target="_blank">Aphex Twin</a>'s 'Didgeridoo' was released on the Belgian label R&S Records in 1992, and originally peaked at #55 in the UK singles chart in May of that year. Over the last 32 years the track has become one of the essential Aphex Twin tracks in a gargantuan catalog that continues to amaze and inspire. 'I wanted to have some tracks to play to finish the raves I used to play in Cornwall, to really kill everybody off so they couldn’t dance,' Richard D James, aka Aphex Twin, told Select magazine back in the 90's. 'Digeridoo came out of that.' Released as a 4-track EP that also included early Aphex productions (now classics) including the industrial, acidic clang of ‘Flap Head’ and hyperbolic futurism of ‘Isopropanol’, the release cemented a relationship with the R&S label that went on to release the ‘Xylem Tube’ EP and the pivotal album ‘<a rel="noopener" href="https://www.turntablelab.com/products/aphex-twin-selected-ambient-works-85-92-vinyl-2lp" target="_blank">Selected Ambient Works 85-92</a>’ in the same year. ‘Didgeridoo’ (Expanded Edition) is the first time the EP has been re-issued with extra material. Whilst digging in his DAT archive (allegedly stored in an airtight military ammo box), Richard James revisited the recordings, encoding them through a Nakamichi CR7e cassette deck, using the customized deck with vari-speed to encode at speeds which 'felt right at the time.' Alongside these CR7e versions, the original mixes have been remastered by Beau Thomas at Ten Eight Seven Mastering, offering a dilated insight into one of electronic music’s most endearing releases." - R&S</p> <ul> <li>Aphex Twin's classic 1992 EP, expanded w/ previously-unheard alternate takes</li> <li>black double vinyl pressing</li> <li>remastered audio</li> <li>first time on vinyl in 20+ years</li> <li>limited edition</li> <li>original release year: 1992</li> <li>music label: R&S 2024</li> </ul>
