What you say
No-one has reviewed 26 Mixes For Cash by Aphex Twin yet.
What we say
 This record left our Brian feeling ecstatic.
Aphex Twin is one of my heroes (which older readers will acknowledge!)
so imagine my delight when I heard 26 of his remixes were coming out on
a super-duper double CD set. Beautifully packaged and essential if only
to hear how he's completely dismantled his employer's work with glee.
Including de-constructions of tunes once recognisable as being by the
following: St. Etienne, Cylob, Nine Inch Nails, Baby Ford, DMX Krew,
Meat Beat Manifesto, Philip Glass, Seefeel, Wagon Christ & Jesus Jones
(!!!!!!!??????) as well as impossible to find mixes of his own work and
the excellent ultra sought after remix of Mescalinum United's 'We
Have Arrived' (So now we know what that 12" of yours is Maria!) Bloody
genius is this man & I want to marry him Blah Blah Blah. Cheers WARP!
