Today's Webtip: Caustic Window

A look through some previously unreleased tracks from Richard D. James. You do remember Aphex Twin, right?

It's been quiet around Aphex Twin recently. Not that the man behind the moniker hasn't been busy, there just hasn't been much in the way of officially acknowledged releases since 2005.

So people got a little excited when it was revealed that a test pressing of an unreleased Caustic Window L.P. had been acquired. The purchaser made a Kickstarter campaign to rip the vinyl, and anyone donating $16 could get their hands on the digital files.

That offer has since come and gone, but now all of us have a chance to check out the mid nineties tracks on YouTube.

You can get some more background info, links to an auction for the test pressing and a little bit of speculation in an article at www.stereogum.com.
