{"product_id":"digeridoo-expanded-edition","title":"Digeridoo (Expanded Edition)","description":"\u003cp\u003eDidgeridoo’ was released on the Belgian R\u0026amp;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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e“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.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eReleased 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\u0026amp;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 \u0026amp; A\u0026amp;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\u0026amp;S fans dropped us. To them it wasn’t music.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e‘Digeridoo’ (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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Capsule Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57735877460349,"sku":"RS9201X","price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0660\/3826\/8152\/files\/a3554439260_16.jpg?v=1769341902","url":"https:\/\/capsulerecords.co.uk\/products\/digeridoo-expanded-edition","provider":"Capsule Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
