saw the current single, blackbox life recorder, in hmv, was £12 on cd and in my mind eps are still £4 so it's probably the first thing of his that i have deliberately not bought

but clicking around last night, his own website is selling digital copies £3 for AND they come with 5 additional tracks (4 remasters done by him and a new track)

https://aphextwin.warp.net/release/399837-aphex-twin-blackbox-life-recorder-21f-in-a-room7-f760

(god, that website is annoying)

Oh what? I can't even work out what I'm buying

Yeah, I feel like for the full CD album price its a bit short. I was psyched to buy an Aphex Twin CD on release day though, haven't done that since.... Windowlicker? In all the complaints about the vinyl being the dominant physical format rn I have yet to hear anyone mention that both Come To Daddy and RDJ records are definitely truncated compared to the "accepted" CD/streaming versions (possibly a USA thing...)

Yeah it’s a real bummer since the vinyl often has more than enough room for them. Syro for instance is a 3xLP for an album that’s only an hour long and it doesn’t even include the bonus track. Ditto with the last 2 tracks on Collapse. I like this stuff but cmon I ain’t paying $29 for 14 minutes of music

Kind of ironic considering SAWII was truncated for CD

“Come to daddy” missing half of the songs (specially IZ-US which is my favorite song in there) is a bummer. RDJ vinyl album does seem to have the same 10 songs tho?

when rdj album was released in the us, sire added the girl/boy song bsides to the end, it’s supposed to end with logon rock witch

yeah that's understandable, those tracks always felt like B-sides to me. but yea Come to Daddy really works well in its 8-track version

having listened to the blackbox life recorder thing a couple of times now i find it very slight. the only but that jumped out at me was the little acid squelch sequence on the extra track

there's all sorts of extra stuff tracked onto the downloads on his store. come to daddy has 11 tracks, for instance. i think you can buy them individually but i don't really know where to start.
