Aphex Twin - Collapse EP

Just picked up the last copy in my HMV - reviews sound positive.
See how it stacks up against the recent Autechre NTS stuff.
 
The limited edition ep was delivered today. Some folks on discogs said their pressing was crap but after a very quick check mine seems fine.
 
Yes, the download has an extra track (not sure why it isn't included on any of the other formats).

The official Aphex Twin store is part of Warp/Bleep https://aphextwin.warp.net/ Lots of unreleased tracks and alternative versions have been uploaded since it went live about a year ago which is very cool. Richard also seems to be regularly replying to comments on there.

Rephlex is officially dead now sad to say. There was a short-lived download site but Grant confirmed a while back that the label is no more. The domain is currently squatted (and unintentionally hilarious) http://www.rephlex.com/

I've seen lots of complaints on Reddit about noise in the right channel of the vinyl - mine (silver sleeve) sounds fine so I guess I got lucky!
 
Unless I’m reading things wrong, 24 bit version only available from Bleep normal shop, but without the extra track, while 16 bit max available from the official AT store, but comes with an extra track.

Seems a bit odd.
 
Yeah that is very odd considering the AFX store IS Bleep!

Edit: so it's a four track vinyl release. With a fifth bonus track available as a download (or CD). And the AFX store has an additional exclusive sixth bonus track. Which isn't available in 24-bit.
 
I'll give it a spin on Tidal now. :)

Sounding good to me so far, the sort of raw Aphex Twin that I really like.
