favorite probably is 2tone. and the one with the julie andrews sample.

I started after the first 110 were put into sets, i.e. have got all the next 63 plus "Afx origTheme" in an iTunes folder. Focusing on those. The tracks are randomly organised so vary widely in age/style but works better for me that way. May get to the rest later.

I saw that N.A.S.A. gig in SF in 93 too!
ridiculous experience, that mall getting temporarily re-zoned into a rave was way weird, AFX killed it with heavy distorted chugging jams

not quite what you are asking for, but, dj food has sorted out a solid steel mix of the ones he likes.

You might find something on the Reddit forum: http://www.reddit.com/r/aphextwin/ There was a Mega link doing the rounds a few weeks ago. '15 sekonda' must be one of the longest tracks at over 10 mins and it's ace. I would rather have had a double (or triple!) album comp of the cream of this stuff over last year's Syro.

I collected all the tracks posted since groovypanda posted the link to the first 112 tracks somewhere upthread. So if you have those two you should be good.
I don't know why the artwork didn't come through :(

Thanks Lucas, yes.
Oh, and btw DJ Food: what use is a 86 minute mix mp3? Slightly too long to burn to cdr!
Gurrr...

ideal for a c90
― massaman gai, Wednesday, 4 March 2015 13:54 (nine years ago) link
er, no. a c90 is 2x45 with a gap in the middle.
i think the last time i burnt audio cds was when i djed but i've since found out that the decks in question would happily play mp3s off the same cds.
oh, and when giving stuff to other people, especially those non-cyber friends. 20p of cdr is still the cheapest option.

― brimstead, Thursday, 5 March 2015 00:19 (nine years ago) link
for folks who are looking to find an easier way into this stuff, I recommend a playlist of the longer (5+ mins) tracks to start with, a lot of them are amazing. by my count there's 67, not as daunting as 180 or whatever we're up to
put it on shuffle and let it roll, I'm doing it right now
if you go up to 6 mins you miss Plinky Plonk, Ssnb, early morning clissold,somewhereOTTGTBOG and dulcimer dub, don't do that
― sleeve, Thursday, 5 March 2015 01:26 (nine years ago) link
I just put them into alphabet order, that's as random as any, and easier to keep tabs on.
Its basically ten CDR discs of the old playable format.
eventually a box set, I made the first one so far. Sounds cool..

They should release all 10 hours of this stuff as a Japanese bonus set. Like, re-release Syro with 10 other bonus CDs.

I wonder if I should buy this as like an investment piece? The first 4 Analords and the LFO/AFX split I picked up seem to be fetching a little bit on Discogs at least

For as much money as I wanted to throw Richard's way between 2002-2014, but couldn't due to the dearth of releases, I'm happy to finally be able to do so now.

Now Mike Paradinis has taken up the mantle and gone even further back:

including was is supposed to be a 1982 recording from when he was 10 years old:
