Album Notes
Aphex Twin: Richard D. James.
The words "remixed by Aphex Twin" tend to arouse apprehension and suspicion inside the heart of musical normality. Since the early `90s, Richard D. James's most notorious moniker has become synonymous with a disdain for the classic tropes of remix-science, a kind of devil-may-care pranksterism that goes some way in explaining 26 MIXES FOR CASH, a two-disc collection spanning nearly two decades of Aphex Twin's musical malfeasance. Reworking a mind-boggling diversity of material from artists as varied as Nine Inch Nails, Jesus Jones, and Philip Glass, Aphex applies his mischievous mad-scientist methods to create not slick dance-floor fodder, but ingenious textural and rhythmic flights of fancy--usually containing little regard for the supplied source material. From the ethereal majesty of Seefeel's "Time to Find Me" to the plangent orchestral havoc of Philip Glass's version of Bowie's "Heroes," 26 MIXES FOR CASH contains solid examples of Aphex's elastic, genre-bending experimentation.
Industry Reviews
...This collection is what remixing is all about, as well as solid proof that nobody makes--and remakes--music like Aphex Twin...
CMJ (03/17/2003)
...The overall hit rate is pretty high....The gamelan fragrances of 'SAW2 CD1 TRK2', one of two unreleased mixes featured here, are among the many pleasures to be savoured...
The Wire (03/01/2003)
3 stars out of 5 - ...There is plenty of Aphex magic on offer here...
Mojo (04/01/2003)
...Richard D. James, aka Aphex Twin, should mess with other artists' work more often...
Spin (04/01/2003)
3 stars out of 5 - ...The Twin has a knack for transmuting almost anyone's tunes into his own blinkered, chaotically beautiful music...
