Oh man. One of today’s lucky 10,000!!
When I discovered this album it was a revelation and raised the bar for what electronic could be.
Story is that Aphex nearly lost all the music on an iPod, and so quickly released to prevent that from happening.
This record was released in 2001. A few years pre-iPod.
Story is on the Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drukqs
It was a non-iPod mp3 player. Same difference I’d say.
Someone had to do it.
