Description

Label: Warp Records

Catalog#: WARP LP 21 LTD

Format: 3 x Vinyl, LP, Limited Edition, Brown
Country:UK

Released:1994

Genre: Electronic

Style: Abstract, Experimental, Ambient

Credits: Producer, Written-By - Richard D. James

Notes:This is the "limited" (10.000 copies) brown vinyl edition. The black vinyl edition is considered pressed in a much smaller quantity.

Front photograph is black & white and the gatefold sleeve has a numbered sticker.
Comes with a paper insert and a small sheet of four stickers.

Track D1 was previously released under the name Blue Calx.
Track E2 is not to be found on the CD versions of this album, but is also included on the black vinyl edition and on the cassette edition of Selected Ambient Works II.

At least some pressings have an off-centred centrehole on disc 3, E/F, that sways the tonearm during playback. This is especially exacerbated on the inner tracks of both sides, E4 & F4, where the music gets heavily distorted.

Catalog number appears as WARPLP21LTD on both back and spine of cover.

(Or whatever it is called).
It’s on Selected works volume II
This piece of music deserves the labelling of genius. There’s no Bass, Kick drum, hi-hats, vocals. ..
Just bare strings programmed in an order to create such over-whelming emotion. That’s where the genius comes in... The Lay person will not appreciate this or even have the patience to realise its impact, just like the masses who thought Mozart was a lunatic all those years ago.
How can I compare Richard D James to Mozart? Easy...
Just listen to this with an open mind, let it take control, don’t over-concentrate.
It’s about balance and patience.
The weighted strings, rising emotion, then the killer punch...
5 mins 55 seconds
Gets me every time

RECORD CONDITION: EXCELLENT

SLEEVE CONDITION: EXCELLENT

This record has only been played about twice ever and has been in a PVC wallet since I bought it in 1994.
