Editorial Reviews :
26 Mixes for Cash is right. Among the canon of rare releases commanding collectable prices, deleted and highly limited productions by IDM inspiration/innovator Richard D. 'Aphex Twin' James are the stuff of fanaticism that High Fidelity skewers. Not that all Aphex is worth spades, but 26 Mixes well merits your doss. The collection showcases two sides of the singular Twin. Disc one — featuring remixes of artists including Seefeel, David Bowie & Philip Glass, Jesus Jones, Saint Etienne and Nobukazu Takemura, among others — showcases James’ symphonic ambiance. While the perception of anyone most familiar with AT tracks including 'Ventolin' and 'Come To Daddy' would be for James to apply driving sheets of static, he instead directs gentle drifts to whisper down thin, steely corridors. The second disc, meanwhile, features more of the clanging pipes, chirping couplers and deconstructed, zigzagging penny-in-tin-pan rhythms he most often applied characteristically. Remixes of Curve, NIN, Baby Ford and Meat Beat Manifesto — as well as previously unreleased Aphex tracks 'Windowlicker (Acid Edit)' and 'SAW2 CD1 TRK2 (Original mix)' — more directly connect to the early-’90s, post-industrial/electro dance floor. 26 Mixes offers an alternate overview of an artist’s development considered groundbreaking, though finally not bank breaking; pristine sounds well worth filthy lucre.
Features/Technical Specs :
This seemed to be just a collection of old mixes that the Twin has just thrown together to get a bit of cash as the title said. However it is more than that, this collection of tracks makes a very enjoyable and impressive album, a must for Aphex Twin fans. It is definetly worth it.
