утраченный альбом Aphex Twin все-таки нашел дорогу к слушателям:

There aren’t many reasons why a finished album would never be released to the public. Most available explanations might involve irreconcilable differences between an artist and his record label, or, even more likely, bureaucratic forces beyond the artist’s control. But none of that explains the story of Caustic Window, the so-called “lost album” produced by electronic music deity Richard D. James (aka. Aphex Twin) under his lesser-known Caustic Window alias and thought to be scheduled for release in 1994 via his own Rephlex label. The record has achieved a sort of mythic status in forums and diehard electronic circles thanks to a 1999 interview in which Planet Mu boss Mike Paradinas described the unreleased record, detailing each of the 16 tracks like an impromptu album review. He also revealed that only four test pressings of what was then known as CAT023 (its catalog number in the Rephlex discography) existed in the world, and that it would never be officially released by James or his label. But he never explained why.

Fast-forward to yesterday afternoon, when the much-ballyhooed Kickstarter campaign finally delivered the Holy Grail of electronic music to the 4,124 people who donated at least $16.00 toward having a test press copy of CAT023 professionally ripped onto lossless digital files.

музыка из детства, натурально.
