Ships 10/4/24 - Expanded rerelease, with poster, sticker, polylined inners, foil blocked wide spine outer sleeve, and more to celebrate the original album's 30th anniversary.
Fourth studio album by English electronic musician, Richard D. James (ska Aphex Twin). Originally released in 1996, the album is regarded as his 'drill 'n' bass' showpiece.
Classics definitely captures the wild, chaotic energy that he is known for — glitchy beats, distorted sounds, & unpredictable structures are all there. It’s raw, intense, and full of “mad scientist” spirit that makes his music so unique.
The album, finished in London with longtime confidante Dillip Harris and bandmates Andrea Balency-Béarn and Marc Pell, is 37 minutes of Mount Kimbie at their most daring and giddily infectious.
