Description:??It??s just too easy to make a standard dance track,? Aphex Twin said of his mindset back in 1992. ??You??ve got to put a bit of thought into it to get something a bit different.? ??Didgeridoo?? was released on the Belgian R&S Records label in 1992, and originally peaked at #55 in the UK singles chart in May of that year. Over the last 32 years the track has become one of the essential Aphex Twin tracks in a gargantuan catalogue that continues to amaze and inspire. ??I wanted to have some tracks to play to finish the raves I used to play in Cornwall, to really kill everybody off so they couldn??t dance,? Richard D James, AKA Aphex, told Select magazine back in the 90s. ??Digeridoo came out of that.? Released as a 4 track EP that also included early Aphex productions (now classics) including the industrial, acidic clang of ??Flap Head?? and hyperbolic futurism of ??Isopropanol??, the release cemented a relationship with the R&S label that went on to release the ??Xylem Tube?? EP and the pivotal album ??Selected Ambient Works 85-92?? in the same year. The label??s owner & A&R Renaat Vandepapeliere reflected ??When I first heard Aphex Twin??s music I said, ??This is it!??, and everybody else said, ??You??re crazy!?? ?a lot of the hardcore R&S fans dropped us. To them it wasn??t music.? ??Didgeridoo?? (Expanded Edition) is the first time the EP has been re-issued with extra material. Whilst digging in his DAT archive (allegedly stored in an airtight military ammo box), Richard James revisited the recordings, encoding them through a Nakamichi CR7e cassette deck, using the customised deck with vari-speed to encode at speeds ??felt right at the time?. Alongside these CR7e versions, the original mixes have been remastered by Beau Thomas at Ten Eight Seven Mastering, offering a dilated insight into one of electronic music??s most endearing releases. -
